@governorwalz.mn.gov rent is due today. You are not powerless. You can minimize these abductions and violence to residents of this state by letting people shelter-in until this federal occupation is over. Enact an eviction moratorium now.
They’re taking kids from Minnesota and sending them to detention camps. They’re shooting American citizens in the street and locking investigators out of the crime scenes. The world is watching what happens next.
Hundreds of people spelled out the distress signal "SOS" on Bde Maka Ska in Minneapolis on Friday, Jan. 30.

The officer who shot Alex worked for DHS for 8 years. The officer who shot Renee worked for DHS for over 10 years. Both are considered “highly trained.”
The problem isn’t "training." DHS was built to violate our rights and has been empowered to act with impunity. We must MELT ICE and dismantle DHS.

You could actually structure your moral code around the idea that law enforcement doesn't exist to execute people. You don't have to create perfect victim narratives, you can just refuse to accept that the state gets to kill people.

Abolish ICE. Destroy their weapons and melt down their equipment. Deny their agents, employees, and bosses all government employment for all time. Remove the agency entirely from the budget and give the money to public libraries and free health care.

The "ICE is using military tactics suited for a warzone, not for American streets" rhetoric kinda misses the point that warzones are not naturally occuring. The US military creates war zones from residential neighborhoods and the tactics are not more justifiable just because it's overseas

All of this. the entire police-ification and militarization of immigration enforcement is a real problem. Turn it back to being a normal civilian bureaucratic agency and make the explicit mission one of facilitating immigration within the rules rather than criminalizing it.
Return immigration law enforcement to DoJ. Travel issues including naturalization and visas to Commerce. Make FEMA independent. Coast guard to transport. TSA to transport. It doesn’t solve everything (INS enforcement could be draconian too) but it starts the process.
It's a very easy Q to ask Dems. Yes or no, do you want to abolish? Strong pols like AOC can take the Q and explain what they actually want.
(I still think not having a response to the Q is a political risk, as is saying "yes" without explaining how you'd enforce law, but duh.)

This is the sort of statement that was expected from every university president and law firm partner over the last year. That those statements weren’t made played a huge part in where we are now and people will remember.

one of the roles of the league should be to mitigate the impact that systemic racism from media, fans and coaches has on players and the game, not legitimize it. the hip rule exacerbates the racial wage gap, capitalizes on bias, encourages inequitable treatment, and leaves the league worse for it.

So, if you’re an NWSL GM, you are not allowed to decide yourself — using all of the tools of a pro team’s front office — that a Player has a High-enough Impact to warrant a certain salary. But you *are* allowed to vote on a list that would determine that that Player has a High-enough Impact.
Sure.
Sure.
The ESPN FC top 50 is here and we need to talk about the sudden conflict of interest the league has created with the high-impact player rule.
With coaches and GMs weighing in on these lists, they can influence whether or not their players can get a bag.
