Today, I completed a double red cell donation with Memorial Blood Centers and the Wedge Community Co-op on Lyndale Avenue. I gave two concentrated units of red cells, and was given back plasma and saline as a return. Thank you to the friendly phlebotomists that helped today and serve our community!

A Minnesota man received a life-threatening injury while in ICE custody. It's not clear how he got injured because his memory and ability to communicate are so severely impaired. Agents said "he got his shit rocked." Wild story from @katrinapross.bsky.social sahanjournal.com/health/ice-d...

Announcing the L Line BRT implies that if there are enough new BRT lines started, by 2040 we will have the Б Line BRT announced.
West 7th St (Route 54) is proposed as the J Line, and Nicollet Ave (Route 18) is proposed as the K Line.

The L Line, which was supposed to be identified at the same time as J and K, will need more evaluation. However, planners are suggesting scenarios for an extension of the existing C Line.

This is a compliment to @ziibiing.com and many others.
Border Patrol Commander Gregory Bovino said well-organized protesters in Minnseota make the ICE operation harder.

"They've got some excellent communications," Bovino said.

Social media accounts like to disparage the Democratic Party establishment, but our state party in Minnesota is actually walking the walk with community. They don't get everything right all the time — who does? — but they are trying. Thank you to all the fantastic, incredible staff who are busting!
The DFL has now trained in over 5,000 Minnesotans to observe and document ICE activity responsibly. Let's keep looking out for one another and holding those in power accountable.

Take the next step at dfl.org/caucus.

I am building an essential 90,000 square foot ballroom and soliciting billion dollar membership fees for my new alternative UN while I shake down Venezuela for cash I will hide in Qatar and I am debating whether I should collapse NATO by stealing the world’s biggest island.
as it always is, part of the trump problem is that describing his behavior in plain language makes you sound like you should be on a 72 hour hold

I want to thank everyone who joined us in Northfield yesterday.

In this moment, I know Minnesotans from every corner of our state are standing together.

Coalitions are built with people you normally disagree with on a normal day. But we are not in a normal environment.
i’m in neighborhood chats with my political enemies. jeremiah ellison is sharing jacob frey on the news on twitter. all of mpls staff talking about using docs written by DSA. DSA members impressed with will stancil

tbh tho some of southwest aren’t meeting the moment but overall people are united
people who have been divided on every local issue are doing things to help take care of each other. the only divide that matters right now is helpers or not. i’ve never seen an amount of unity and support like this. it really is Us vs Them

Picked up Know Your Rights cards, union-printed in Minneapolis. These have explanations from @aclumn.bsky.social and key phone numbers to save. Union label on the back! Thank you!

Edit: through the first 18 days of 2026, ICE responsible for 2 of the 4 shooting victims in Minneapolis, and 1 of the 2 homicides.
ICE is responsible for the *only* shooting and homicide in Minneapolis so far in 2026.

Minnesotans deserve better than this chaos and cruelty.

I’m grateful for everyone who’s standing up for our neighbors right now — especially our young people.

The problem of expanding the smash and grabs to include all people who don't look American enough, regardless of citizenship or immigration status, is it becomes obvious we're not debating immigration policy. It's a government campaign of racialized, militarized street thuggery and harassment.
Nasra Ahmed, a U.S. citizen raised in St. Paul, recounts the encounter with a dozen ICE agents that led to two days at the Sherburne County Jail. She was taken for an MRI in arm and leg restraints, and then released Friday night without charges:

We see you- whether you’re on the streets or managing spreadsheets, wrapping our community in care. There’s a place for everyone in this movement.

(Also, we may be at an all time high of Minnesotans telling each other that they love them.)

I am not a certified pallet jack operator, but they let me play pretend and touch the pallet jack. These are all the Huggies diapers, infant formula, and baby wipes that could fit in my car. Thank you to all the incredible organizers like @seanlimmn.bsky.social who are working hard to feed people!!

They can't scrounge up enough D-list J6ers to fill a bingo hall, while guys in Vikings jerseys are chasing ICE out of sports bars. Public sentiment is pivoting rapidly and we are going to win.

Thank you to Sean and all the organizers. Thank you to the three dozen volunteers who we helped recruit from newsletter readers for this food drive and future events. We live in a precarious time, but neighbors are showing up for neighbors because we are all human. Thank you! Thank you!
Minnesotans showed up & showed out today to help our Twin Cities neighbors in need, at our Northeast Minneapolis food drive this morning.

Over 800+ community members reached out to help support with purchasing, sorting, organizing, and delivering groceries to ~125 families. My heart is so so full.

I can totally believe Jake Lang went into today when the windchill is -6ºF with no gloves, no scarf, no wool hat. Just the model picture of performative, racist masculinity. Thank you to the journalists covering, but stay warm out there!
