I help people turn buildings into robots professionally; and amateurly pretending to be a home builder in the Sawtooths above The Big Lake. and I'm probably a heretic. I'm @evolvegoalies on the one with pictures and was @Big_Red_30 on the bird app

Ossoff: "Among today's false prophets are the election deniers who indulge this president's obsession with overturning the 2020 election. Hear me when I say this -- they tell a lie so absurd, and therefore so debasing, that the act of telling it proves the teller's total and humiliating submission."
Reminder: In 2016, the GOP went BALLISTIC when Bill Clinton met the AG at SkyHarbor airport for 5 minutes, insisting the AG MUST BE an independent authority.

I don't know if it's really clear, outside of coverage of Mpls and pockets of organizing elsewhere, that hundreds of thousands of people are actively and at every level of society fighting our government as it abducts and imprisons and torments our neighbors.
Rockwell would have painted this.
Trump & his Republican majorities cut healthcare funding to 3x the ICE budget. So MN may no longer be able to afford healthcare, but we have seen a sharp increase in the number of masked Texans running wild in our neighborhoods with a license to kill.

Abolish ICE.
Thereβs no reforming it.
Thereβs no compromise.
Thereβs only one way to rein in ICEβs terror campaign. Abolish it.
Count me the hell in, big guy!
The Montreal Canadiens are playing the Minnesota Wild in Minneapolis tonight. The players have been recommended to stay in/eat at the hotel, take the team bus to the arena, and carry passports.
Perhaps we shouldn't be hosting the World Cup and the Olympics...
Crap part of my back and an ice cube and it says come on auto correct
Oh, people in your state donβt make anti ICE crop art?
Couldnβt be us

Really appreciate this thread from someone outside MN.
I utterly hate the military cosplay here, but applaud the Herculean effort it took to get gear in American Girl Doll sizes.
I walked up behind him wearing all black tight fitting clothes, they started yelling, βlook our for that bear!β I replied, βHi, Iβm not a bear!β
To which the reply came, βoh my God, a talking bear!β
An all timer.
Early season bikepacking. The weather was gorgeous, the bikepackers were ill prepared.
Though that trip did produce the group of 20-somethings in a canoe that thought I was a bear, then screamed when I said hello from a distance and they thought I was a talking bear.
Walz: "We have learned that the Trump administration has now denied the state that ability to participate in the investigation. I want to make this as clear as possible: Minnesota must be part of this investigation ... it feels very very difficult that we will get a fair outcome."

When did Dwight Yoakam start wearing hoop earrings?
Get. The. Fuck. Out of our Cities ICE
Nearly 6 years and it seems the same community finds itself once again the nucleus of a great pushback by the people. Those of us in the neighboring neighborhoods will be hearing the helicopters and stepping up. We wonβt accept this quietly.
Walz: "To Minnesotans, don't take the bait. Do not take the bait. Do not allow them to deploy federal troops into here. Do not allow them to invoke the Insurrection Act. Do not allow them to declare martial law. Do not allow them to lie about the security and decency of this state."
Me too, absolutely irate.
A protester holding a sign: βICE murdered a mom today. Say her name.β
Small but lively crowds at Snelling and Selby. Lots of supportive honks.
the protest/vigil is large
taking up several blocks

If there is a more iconic mustache in MN biking, we have yet to see it.
Snowballs: the only valid white power
Still not the number one news story on network or cable news, anywhere in the world.
THIS is who #Minnesota should be. Thankful for people like this. Scared for what will happen when eventually ICE will shoot people like this, because that is what this is escalating to. #Minneapolis
Undefeated whistling champion of the world.
Of the 80,000 Somalis who live in the twin cities, only 4000 are non-citizens. And the OVERWHELMING MAJORITY of those 4000 non-citizens are NOT undocumentedβthey are here legally.
There is no immigration issue to enforce here.
I know racists don't care about this, but these facts do matter
