It's Day 19 of the ICE occupation of MSP.

Today thousands of Minnesotans poured onto Lake Street to rally in support of our immigrant neighbors and against ICE.

Take a moment to look at this crowd of you and your neighbors rallying in below zero windchill.

please watch this interview and share it. the opening is especially necessary -- homelessness isn't the exception. as rents vastly outpace what wages can afford, many who are working multiple jobs have no place to live.
"Homelessness today isn't just the person sleeping outside a Walmart. It's often the cashier or worker stocking the shelves inside."

I joined @pbsnews.org to talk about There Is No Place for Us and the staggering rise of the "working homeless":

Israel’s genocide has destroyed nearly 90% of Gaza’s economy, causing the worst economic collapse ever recorded. In 2024 alone, Israel caused Gaza’s GDP to decline by 83%, according to data reported by the UN Trade and Development agency. Now, Gaza’s economy stands at just 13% of its 2022 levels.

Friends, I'm looking to speak with people who are upset about the Democrats' shutdown deal and who can speak about how increasing healthcare costs will impact them. If that's you, I can be reached via DM or at [email protected]. We can also protect people's identities as needed.

Vogue's absorption of and closure of Teen Vogue feels like -- is -- a direct attack on a new generation of queer journalists who were committed to excellence and the power of journalism to illuminate the stories of people at the margins.

And it impacts all of us, no matter our age.

When a police officer faces a complaint, Minneapolis frequently resolves this by forwarding it to a supervisor who simply speaks with the officer about the complaint, rather than triggering a formal investigation. Local critics are pushing back.

NEWS: The Trump admin's decision to suspend SNAP benefits due to the shutdown has been blocked. In two cases, both judges found the government action is likely illegal. Although a judge in Mass gave the admin until Monday to reverse course, a judge in Rhode Island issued a TRO from the bench today.
BREAKING: Federal judge rules that the Trump administration likely illegally suspended SNAP benefits, ruling that at least reduced distribution is required to go forward under law using the $6 billion reserve fund.

Federal Judges have ruled a) that the President does have the authority to release emergency SNAP funds during the shutdown & b) that Trump *Must* do so.

That means if payments don't go out, it's because Trump & the republicans defied the Judiciary to refuse to use their authority to send them out.

President Trump’s immigration crackdown has led to increased ICE raids, resulting in human rights abuses in detention centers—incl. the abuse & neglect of disabled immigrants, Reina Sultan reports. A monitoring visit at the Adelanto ICE Processing Center has exposed inhumane & unlawful conditions.

If you're happy the 20 Israeli hostages are home (as I am) but silent on the 10,000 Palestinian hostages still languishing in Israeli prisons without charge or due process of law—then you'll have to stop pretending its hostage taking you were ever upset about.
