Minneapolis for the Many @mplsforthemany.com · 14h

Please direct any questions regarding this statement to our attorney Daniel Suitor, [email protected]

A few weeks ago, Minneapolis for the Many made social media posts and emails describing Jim Rubin, of Mint Properties, as a “negligent” landlord and stated that he “is singlehandedly responsible for hundreds of property violations.” We retract those statements and sincerely apologize to Mr. Rubin. He has never been held negligent in his duties as a landlord by a court, nor is it fair to say he is personally responsible for every property violation found at his company’s properties. Mr. Rubin has a history of purchasing, renovating, and operating older buildings which often includes inheriting major maintenance backlogs. Mr. Rubin’s efforts to create naturally occurring affordable housing in Minneapolis are laudable and much appreciated. Minneapolis for the Many regrets the implication that Mr. Rubin could be considered a “slumlord” or “negligent landlord.”

I just want to remind everybody that Redveil took a stance for Palestine ONE MONTH into the genocide. At only 19-years old he showed more courage and moral integrity than most of the rich Hip Hop pros in the U.S. Support his work, his music will be good for your soul

Not just Venezuela. Colombia, too. And not just extra-judicial, but indiscriminate: "the Pentagon was unable to determine the individual identities of each person on the boats before they struck them."

NEW @motherjones.com: Nobody in that GOP group chat praising Hitler or making racist comments was a “kid,” as JD Vance claimed today

I tracked down their ages. (Weirdly, it seems nobody else did.)

Eight of the 11 in the group chat range from 24 to 35. Ages of others are unclear.

But… no “kids”!

No one in the GOP Hitler chat was a "kid"

We checked. Sorry, JD Vance.

Have you seen Hamas the last two days?
How imagine releasing those people on the population of Israel.

Why is replacing the nation-state of Israel with a unified single state of a free and democratic Palestine wrong?

Davide Mastracci created a database containing profiles of 206 Canadians who have served in the Israeli military. This is the largest such collection of names and profiles in Canada, by far, and is a major expansion on the earlier version.

It is kind of amusing that today in the Anglosphere it's just assumer that if you're on the political left then you're pro Palestine. Anyone with an iota of historical awareness would know even 30 years ago this would be an insane thing to tell someone.

We need allies who get the chance to speak to the media at ICE to hit at least one or two issues from the communities targeted by ICE.
ICE is deporting thousands of Native Americans. They are fluent in a Native American language and it's their primary language, not Spanish or English.
