People selling homemade Minnesota stuff right now don’t really say it outright, but you can tell they mean, ‘I don’t have money but I have beads/yarn/3dprinter/etc. to make stuff and send the proceeds to folks who are helping.’ Look for this stuff, buy if you like, but don’t bag on them, please.

A reminder: The Attorney General of the United States should be the people's lawyer, not the president's personal attorney. The Department of Justice should act to protect the public, not the occupant of the Oval Office and his political allies.
