Watercolor art that says "WE KEEP US SAFE."

This lovely, original watercolor piece was left behind on a copy machine at a Saint Paul print shop. If it is yours, it's still there being kept safe with the staff at the counter! 🩵💜

Name and shame the architecture firms doing the permit drawings for these conversions. Someone is getting GSA fees to draw concentration camp fit outs and people should know who those firms are.

Cannot believe how far the bar has been lowered but this somehow feels legitimately useful to hear out loud. Because what virtually every single Minnesotan is doing is simply recording, saying words, and possibly using a whistle.

That is virtually ALL anyone is doing as the feds claim "escalation".

Ending this operation is not enough.

We need justice and accountability. That starts with independent investigations into the murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, economic restitution for businesses impacted, abolishing ICE, and the impeachment of Kristi Noem.

I am wary of any politicians doing a victory lap today before we’ve seen on the ground that ICE has left. Their surety makes me think that they negotiated something and I think they owe it to us to be as transparent as possible about what that is.

If my followers have been inspired by the fierce resistance the Twin Cities has put up to ICE, you should make it a point to take a trip here (April through October 😬), enjoy the wonderful things MN has to offer and support our small businesses. It continues to be a really tough time for them.

To recap the day:

This morning one friend was harassed by masked/armed Fed agents for legally observing.

This evening another friend was stabbed by a MAGA psycho.

As I type this my wife is notarizing documents for people who are afraid of being kidnapped.

This is not OK

As President Trump’s immigration crackdown continues in Minnesota, many immigrants who are detained in the Twin Cities are ending up in a desolate detention camp in the desert of West Texas, only to be released later in El Paso with no money and no obvious way to get home. trib.al/jyi6Rca

This morning at the Minnesota State Capitol.

An ice sculpture that reads "PROSECUTE ICE". I'm told the organization behind the sculpture is Common Defense.

This meshes with what we learned in that recent hearing where the Asst US Attorney said "the system sucks:" ICE is wrongfully arresting hundreds if not thousands of legal, documented immigrants, and having to respond to their demands to be let out is breaking the federal courts in Minnesota

I knew Trump would target Minnesota. I didn’t expect this level of violence | Rachel Leingang I’m reporting on a political retribution campaign, disguised as immigration enforcement, in the community where I live

I've been covering Trump's retribution campaign since he came back to the White House. Then, that storyline came directly to my state - and what I've covered will stick in my brain forever. The children, the brutality, the isolation, the camaraderie and bravery. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

Donate Your Skymiles — Stand With Minnesota Donate your Delta Skymiles to get people home from Texas

Okay! This has already inspired a bunch of DMs, so I made a page on the website. If you have 50,000+ Skymiles and would be willing to book flights to get someone home, please fill this out.

Appreciate this quality potato content. Everything is so scary and fragile right now, and it's also about balance. And potatoes.

"Problems that exist will not improve with proximity."

That is IT! Ask 100 people why RTO is so frustrating and you'll be sitting on a wealth of employee feedback that speaks to deeper challenges within an organization.

I watched A Real Pain and Kieran Culkin is just fantastic. I loved him in Succession, too, so I'm generally just a fan of what he does. ☺️
