β€œIf wrecking the G.O.P. brand in Minnesota was the Trump administration’s actual assignment, then A-plus, 10 out of 10 execution,” said Chris Madel, a prominent defense lawyer who suspended his campaign for governor as a Republican last month.

U2 new EP kicks off with β€œAmerican Obituary” which is more hopeful than the title sounds. It addresses the killing of Renee Good, ICE in Minneapolis, and the threat to democracy.

β€œThe power of the people is so much stronger than the people in power.”

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Videos verified by The New York Times show the man federal agents shot and killed in Minneapolis on Saturday was holding a phone, not a gun, before the agents took him to the ground and shot him. At least 10 shots appear to have been fired within five seconds. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

I am sad that CBS Radio relies on social media post as its source for coverage. They apparently really don’t care about how anybody pronounces anything anymore evidence by their anchor who pronounces CBS as ceee-bs news

@startribune.com print deadline is now 5:30pm except for Saturday (Sunday edition) which is 4:15pm because it’s now printed in Iowa. When I was producing TV news sometimes I’d have an almost entirely new first block of stories happen between 6pm and 10pm.

Thanks. I apparently didn’t scroll down far enough in the linked story to see it had the paper delivery info. Too many ad breaks- something I don’t encounter in the print edition.
