I can't describe how bad Minneapolis feels right now. My neighbors are pulling kids out of school. The public schools are offering remote learning until 2/12. We are having conversations in our alleys about how to protect ourselves. It feels like a military occupation with a blockade.
The US Department of Agriculture suspends all federal funding to Minnesota, effective immediately.

The decision has been made to break an American city. It is an experiment. We must do all we can (legally) to help Minneapolis hold on.
if you want to know what it is like in minneapolis, I don’t even have to scroll on facebook to find a horror story. it’s basically my whole feed.
everyone i know in minneapolis is seeing ICE take people—at gas stations, taquerias, bus stops, schools. just snatching random people.

“America is dangerously close to a world in which all federal policy hinges on the outcomes of presidential elections, no matter how narrow the margin of victory,” Zachary S. Price argues:
Trump’s Power Grab Over the Budget Is Breaking the Constitutional Design
If this pattern holds, the result will be more wild swings in policy across administrations.

It’s pretty wild that the most rabidly anti-immigrant administration in recent memory is comprised of a President married to an immigrant, a VP married to the daughter of immigrants, an assistant AG in charge of Civil Rights who’s an immigrant (Dhillon), & it was all funded by an immigrant (Musk).

The DOJ must release the full Epstein files, not the White House-approved version.

A 14-word replacement for most op-eds, substacks, etc about this moment.
The GOP could stop ALL of this, right now—if a handful of Sens or Reps could step outside the cult.
It would take four in the Senate, four (maybe five) in the House, to change history.
Until then, they're all to blame.

I don’t always agree with Chair Powell – but he is right.
Prices are up 2.9% from last month. And they’re higher than they were a year ago.
Why?
Donald Trump’s chaotic tariff policies.

Does Trump not understand the First Amendment?!?
A reporter just asked the U.S. president a perfectly legitimate question about his attorney general's vow to prosecute people for constitutionally protected speech.
He responded by threatening to prosecute the reporter.
The threat itself is an abuse of power. It ought to be an impeachable offense.

JON KARL: What do you make of Pam Bondi saying she's gonna go after hate speech? A lot of your allies say hate speech is free speech
TRUMP: We'll probably go after people like you because you treat me so unfairly. You have a lot of hate in your hate. Maybe they'll have to go after you.
