We reviewed more than 100 Minnesota license plates attached to immigration enforcement vehicles in recent weeks.
We found that nearly 60% were not registered with the state of Minnesota, including the Chevy Tahoe that federal agent Jonathan Ross traveled in the day he fatally shot Renee Good.

I supose I shouldn't be surprised that they are again trying to deport little Liam and his family. The full weight of the federal government is being used against a little boy with a bunny hat.
I know November is a long time away, but make the pledge now to punish these people on Election Day.

I sure hope the images of the right wing influencer defacing the ice sculpture at the state Capitol are real, as are the criminal charges and fines he now claims he faces.

In a few years, this can all be restored, with an added note or two on how America's most racist president tried to erase Black history and failed.
Civil rights activist Medgar Evers was shot in the back by a Klansman in 1963.
The National Park Service has removed visitor brochures from Evers' museum and reportedly plans to remove references that call his murderer a “racist"

Finally, a Super Bowl story that interests me!
When Super Bowl 60 gets underway there will be one photographer on the sidelines who has snapped shots at every Super Bowl game. John Biever was 15 when he took photos at the first Super Bowl; he says this one will likely be his last.
He's photographed every Super Bowl. Will this one be his last?

Kyle isn't the hero we've been looking for, it seems.
it’s really not suspicious at all kyle wagner is wearing this shirt either. look at videos - the man is obsessed with playing for the cameras just like feds are. he was “on the run” yet couldn’t stop doing interviews. again, he calls himself “antifa kyle.” it’s branding. of course he’d put this on

Took a drive through Lexington, Circle Pines, and Lino Lakes today. While these communities all share a border with Blaine, I just don't that direction very often. Going to a DFL gathering on Saturday, I just wanted to map my route.
