I had *no* idea I would be as correct as I was about this article. The @nytimes.com literally went to a bar in the middle of nowhere Minnesota and interviewed half a dozen drunken white people who have no idea what's going on in Minneapolis.
Unfucking believable.

We recently tested ~ a dozen public statements from a diverse set of Democratic elected officials on the murder of Renee Good and this was the top testing one
AOC: I want everybody to understand that the cuts to your health care are what’s paying for this. You get screwed over to pay a bunch of thugs in the street that are shooting mothers in the face.

“Why was Renee Good unfortunately and tragically killed?” Leavitt asked.

It's great to see the term Reconstruction gain currency for what we need to do next. When we use it, we mean ambitious institutional transformations to shore us up for the future. When people like Larry Summers use it, I assume they're using it in the historically accurate sense of Republican rule

US government's policy toward the Big 3 automakers—encouraging them to invest in massive, US-only SUVs & trucks, now encouraging them to underinvest in EVs—has reinforced their global irrelevance.
Ford sold 33% fewer vehicles worldwide in 2024 than 2015! GM sold 40% fewer vehicles!

You ever think about how any protestor is an insurrectionist to them because they claim the insurrectionists at Jan. 6th were protestors and can never back down?
Miller: "In MN, the insurrectionists are confronting our officers on the street. They're being arrested. This is a natl security priority. Arrests of insurrectionists are made every day, and each provide us an opportunity to learn about the network from a law enforcement & natl security standpoint"

Anti-ICE people need to do their best to be above reproach. Do whatever we can to keep the narrative clean. This is a lesson from the civil rights era. ICE are the guys with firehoses and dogs (and guns and tear gas).
Be the people standing up for their rights.

Like Minnesotans protesting and generally annoying the shit out of ICE is a highly effective form of resistance! Just look at the polling! Taking random potshots at Feds would probably have the opposite effect

Sorry, it's a grim time and people are fighting for their lives, but there's something cosmically amusing about Minnesotans becoming beacons to show other Americans "the answer is actually talking to your neighbors and working with people you live with, no matter what".
