Insane but true fact: making US roads as safe as Canadian, Australian, or European roads would save more lives than eliminating murder from the US.

Keep an eye on Appleton MN. Almost 3 hrs from the Twin Cities, feds are looking at it for an ICE detention facility. Far from the prying eyes of the largest and densest population of people who oppose concentration camps. (Gratitude for the locals on the right side) www.minnpost.com/greater-minn...
Appleton residents weigh value of potential ICE detention center
Appleton’s private prison, once the town's biggest employer, has sat unused for 15 years. The Trump administration might have plans for it.

ICE confirmed at the raid at Bro-Tex on N. Hampden and Territorial Road in St Paul, just east of 280. Situation appears to be similar to the Lake/Bloomington raid that happened back in June, so please be careful.

Couple dozen people total (FBI, HSI, DEA) on site surrounding Bro-Tex at Hamden and Territorial.
“Just executing a search warrant” was the answer given on site.

There have been reports of federal government activity in Ward Four this morning. As of right now, we believe the entities involved are FBI and DEA, not ICE. We’re continuing to work to get official confirmation of this, and to monitor the activity in the area closely. I’ll share more as I’m able.

I was at the 2017 ward 7 convention when I first met Frey. I asked him "why run for mayor, why now" and he said "I've done what I can as CM and now it's time for the next step" which to me meant this was a power grab game to him from the jump. Could not believe that was his answer.
2/ A question I ask every mayoral challenger is “why are you running?” People who run against Frey face an avalanche of $$ & elite wagon-circling. It’s no fun. Policies motive, and undoing injustices, but there’s often something they’ve experienced that make getting into the arena unavoidable.

7/ Caught in a lie, Frey never apologized. Instead, we got his famously weasely “Language became more casual, including my own.” BTW this is the 1st election voters can hold Frey accountable for lying & Locke dying, but the incident is almost memory-holed in coverage. www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/ne...
Minneapolis Mayor Frey Admits To Being Misleading On 'No-Knock' Policy Changes
"Language became more casual, including my own, which did not reflect the necessary precision or nuance. And I own that," Mayor Jacob Frey said.

After almost eight years, Mayor Frey’s failed approach to encampments is harming everyone in our communities.
In an open letter to Mayor Frey, Cat Salonek Schladt highlights the impact of Frey’s “unwillingness to provide health, sanitation and trash services to our unhoused neighbors.”

The victim blaming in press coverage of last night's mass shootings in Minneapolis is unfuckingbelievable. Every story focuses on city efforts to shut down a homeless encampment.
I've read three stories on it—all of which quote officials—and I still have no idea WHO was shooting, much less WHY.

This weekend on a drive out to see some friends in the burbs, kid in the backseat goes "I'm the sweep today!" b/c when we bike together as a fam usually it's me on the cargo bike hauling kid and my partner behind us sweeping 😇
My 3yo just called the airport the "plane station" and honestly thats what it should be called. Also I feel I've succeeded at implanting trains first in this little consciousness.
