Update:
Because Holman airfield has international flights they must have a customs office.
The building project reported by the city is a replacement of an existing customs office.
I have seen no indication that this project is anything other than a replacement for a very old facility.

I reached out to federal delegation to get some answers on this project. It’s a surprise and a very unwelcome one.
No home for ICE and CBP in Saint Paul.

From a St Paul Dept of Safety and Inspections email: construction permit for a new $11m CBP building construction permit at 670 Bayfield Street next to the downtown StP airport. Note location right near the runways. "Great" place to deport from! @mollycoleman.bsky.social @melvincarter.bsky.social

We're facing a dire shortage of teachers. We'll hire 1,000 new ones every single year and deliver on the class-size reduction law I was proud to help pass in Albany.

Wherever Rep. Mike Flood goes, the Handmaids follow. Chanting, filming, staring. Like Gilead with better lighting. You vote to gut women’s rights, you get chased by the dystopia you built. Under His Eye, bro.

I know it's fun to get annoyed by New York's solipsism about itself but the people who showed up to demand Lander's release genuinely feels like a moment from a Sam Raimi Spider-Man (complimentary)

This hero shut ICE down without raising a finger. At a Miami traffic stop, he refused to let ICE interrogate his passengers—despite threats.
Cool, calm, and legally untouchable.
THIS is how you resist fascism.
I wish I knew his name so I could thank him publicly.

i have been extremely online for ~2 decades on a variety of platforms.
this one has the biggest numbers of total strangers who swoop into discussions among friends and chide us for talking about stuff they don't like.
that is bad behavior and if you feel attacked, self-reflection is in order.

Five good apples. My recommendations: Zohran Mamdani, Jessica Ramos, Brad Lander, Zellnor Myrie, and Adrienne Adams.
NYC has three candidates with sexual abuse allegations in the mayoral race: Andrew Cuomo, Eric Adams, and Scott Stringer. Don't rank them!

DON’T RANK Cuomo but you must also RANK ALL FIVE MAYORAL SLOTS to ensure the predator is not elected.

Trump stole $80 million in federal funding from New Yorkers and is threatening to cut $100 billion more.
So why did Andrew Cuomo tell Stephen A Smith that "It’s up to [Trump]"?
