Business leaders and congressional Republicans are gonna have to ask themselves how many more public executions they will continue to tolerate in Minnesota. We’ve *been* at a breaking point, and Kristi Noem still has her job.
I can’t even fathom the damage that’s been done here.

ICE has now carried out two summary executions of innocent people in the streets of an American city.
If you work for ICE, there's no denying that's the mission you're supporting now. You don't get to claim in one year or ten or twenty that you didn't know what ICE was doing. You're complicit.

If you’re an elected official, talking about reforming ICE should be instantly disqualifying. I don’t want to hear one goddam thing about electoral strategy
There is no excuse anymore, not that there was before. You don’t reform death squads

Hi everyone -- there is a general strike in Minnesota tomorrow to protest what the Trump administration and DHS are doing to our community. In solidarity with the action, I am going to donate my revenue from tmrw's newsletter to People over Papers, the Midway-Hamline Diaper Bank, & Every Meal. (1/2)

Just got an email from my kid’s basketball coach outlining the safety precautions the host school has put in place, including when and how they’ll go into lockdown if the federal secret police show up. Again, schools making plans to protect children from their own government.

These powerful pics are really, really good reminders of why it makes sense for those opposing Trump to reclaim ownership of the American flag.
If your audience is the giant lower-info middle of the electorate--and it should be--this seems like a really good way to get to them.

You lying piece of shit. I chaired the Minnesota DFL for all three of your runs here. I watched you lose. Three times. Minnesota never bought your con. And now, as Chair of the DNC, I’m looking forward to ending Trumpism for good in 2028 — not with lies, but with votes. Again.
Trump: "I feel I won Minnesota. I think I won it all three times. Nobody has won it since Richard Nixon won it many many years ago. I won it all three times in my opinion. It's a corrupt state ... I did so well in that state. The people were crying every time after."

It's an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president - failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home - decides to launch a war for regime change abroad.
The American people don’t want to “run” a foreign country while our leaders fail to improve life in this one.
