Imagine if you single handedly had the power to delay thousands of evictions & keep families in their homes. Jacob Frey can do that by signing what Council passed yesterday. Or he can help evict thousands of people with a veto.
Let him know what you would do: www.minneapolismn.gov/government/m...
Would be amazing if we could get some non-Minnesotan neighbors plugged in here. Minnesotans have majorly overextended themselves paying their neighbor's rents and we know there is more capacity to chip in from outside the state.

@naddington.bsky.social I used you as an example, remembering you once posting about what to teach in the fourth semester of algebraic geometry, now that your students had covered the first three chapters of Hartshorne
Updating the occupation/medical comparison for March:
Now it's like when things are *slightly* better and you're just out of the hospital. You're still *pretty damn sick*—but now everyone expects you to do normal things, not just focus on surviving. You have less support. In some ways it's harder.
A bill with $40 million in rent relief is headed to the Minnesota Senate floor next week. Lead author @lindseyportmn.bsky.social crafted a bill that addresses the urgency of the moment.
Plus, the bill includes my provision to extend pre eviction notices from 14 to 30 days temporarily.
So many horrors to go around, but the routine transfer of detainees to 5th circuit jurisdiction is something I feel like has not landed with most people yet, and it‘s one of the things I find most terrifying.
Take Action Now: Call Mayor Frey and tell him to support Pause Evictions, Save Lives passed by the city council on 3/5/2026. Mayor Frey: 612-673-2100 Sample Script: "I am calling to ask Mayor Frey to commit to supporting an extension of the pre-eviction notice period from 30 to 60 days. Countless neighbors are at immediate risk of displacement and this measure is the bare minimum the City can do to protect our neighbors. Can I count on his support?"
Today, the Mpls City Council passed the Pause Evictions, Save Lives ordinance, which would extend the pre-eviction notice period from 30 to 60 days.
Take action now and call Mayor Frey (612-673-2100) and tell him to stand with our neighbors and extend the pre-eviction filing period.
when2meet.com is fine for scheduling meetings, but I'm disappointed no one has set up whether2meet.com ...
Omg that's how all this started??
This is your reminder that cops have no duty of care and have argued in court (usually successfully) that they can walk past you bleeding out and not do anything.
Unprecedented activity at the Whipple Building today. Multiple shipments of black Chevy Tahoes and a load of building materials. Never before, not even during *peak surge days*, have we seen so many vehicles delivered at once.
Are these the actions of an agency preparing to vacate the cities?
How to win in November
This is something that has always bothered me: landlords always talk about COVID like they were absolutely gutted. But this massive study by a national trade org, which was conducted on a month-to-month basis, shows the industry never took a bath

UREGENT AID NEEDED DONATE NOW We need 15k to cover living expenses for the family who wait their return, cover legal fees for both women, and phone calls from the detention center. givebutter.com/ bring-pregnant-women-home-from-ice-detention- 22yq6x Miriam and Sandra's story in the following slides
UREGENT AID NEEDED On January 22nd Miriam and her 18-year old daughter Sandra were targeted and pulled over by ICE. Miriam and Sandra were forced out of their vehicle at gunpoint. Miriam was aggressively thrown to the ground and handcuffed, despite informing ICE agents she was 5 months pregnant.
UREGENT AID NEEDED Upon arrival at the Whipple building, daughter Sandra was given a pregnancy test and tested positive. Both mother and daughter were sent to Texas. For weeks, Miriam was experiencing severe and abnormal pregnancy symptoms, and frequently requested to see a doctor. It wasn't until she fainted and was visibly in a dangerous state that the other women in the detention center organized a noise demonstration; chanting and pleading for Miriam to receive medical help.
We need your help bringing two pregnant women back home from ICE detention!

Minneapolis Council Member Aisha Chughtai to Chief Brian O'Hara: “You show up to the scene and you see federal agents pointing their weapons at people, and you don’t feel a duty to protect the residents of this community and instead choose to leave the scene?” (1) www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...
At this point there is so much need that we are triaging the most dire needs and imminent evictions. Every one of these stories is heartbreaking. These are humble, hardworking families who desperately want to be working, and they keep apologizing to us as if any of this is their fault 😭
Half a dozen brand new Tahoe SUVs at Whipple this morning. Make of this what you will.

Mind you these workers are specifically Kenyan workers who are made to view and annotate the absolute worst things created by man and machine for extremely low pay and absolutely no support or care from Meta for the trauma they endure every day at work
@jklabs.net knows this story, but when I was a kid my dad insisted that we forgo something that I really wanted and felt most people had, so I gave him the old "if you can't beat them join them"
And he hit me back with "we cannot defeat evil in the world but only resist it within our own souls"
Maybe I'm most worried that AI will be like cars: immensely dangerous, terrible for the environment, expensive, making policy and regulation less humane, used regularly when obviously overkill, undeniably useful, and widely adopted.
Not only has MPD not intervened in cases where feds use unlawful force, today we learned MPD has submitted nothing to the county attorney related to crimes committed by federal agents.

Okay, just Minnesotans here?
Angie Craig has taken money from crypto and AIPAC.
Peggy Flannagan has NOT and WILL not.
Angie Craig praised ICE before Metro Surge. She changed her tune now.
Peggy Flanagan has not praised ICE.
VOTE PEGGY FLANAGAN FOR SENATOR!
Ooof...approximately 182 evictions filed statewide last Friday. Highest filing day thus far in 2026. There were 179 filings the last day of 2025.
Our little standwithminnesota.com team staved off multiple evictions today. I’m so proud of us. And the stories are so heartbreaking, and there’s still so much need.
If you can help, I’ll get it directly where it needs to go.

Frame from campaign ad by Rep. Dan Goldman. His face full on center frame under which is the caption in all caps “ABOLISH ICE”
Public pressure means something. Primaries can change policies. In NY-10, Dan Goldman has been running ads for months.
Primaried from his left by @bradlander.bsky.social, Goldman’s ads have gone from “Agents should have to carry ID” in January, to big bold graphics this month that say “Abolish ICE.”
