The U.S. war on Iran is now estimated to cost $1 billion per day. Meanwhile Americans are told there’s no money for healthcare, hospitals, or basic social programs.

This whole movement in Minnesota has been easier said than done but we still did it and are doing it! How are you going to say things like this with a straight face to people who have spent months running toward danger, facing down men with guns, and being assaulted by federal agents?

This is the kind of leadership MN needs right now:

His friends get nervous, he said, and tell him to avoid putting himself in harm’s way.

“I don’t care. They’re coming after our people,” Chavez said. “Like, over my dead body are they gonna kidnap more people.”

I finally got to share the true height of cinema with @lizmaebrooks.bsky.social last night: the 1983 American musical drama 'Eddie and the Cruisers,' based on the novel by P. F. Kluge -- now streaming on PlutoTV! 🎸

Adopt A Rent — Stand With Minnesota Adopt the rent of a family impacted by the ICE occupation in Minneapolis

Stand With Minnesota is out of donors for Adopt A Rent, and we currently have way more rent needs than we can cover!

Want to directly support a MN immigrant family in urgent need to help keep them safe and housed?

Fill out our form here: standwithminnesota.com/adoptarent

Thank you! 💐

Fuck being "too emotional" about the occupation

There is no such thing

It is an excuse for cowards to stay home and never allow their lives to be touched by solidarity, even accidentally

This framing is brilliant.

Too often we are told that someone is "too close" or "too involved" to be able to exercise good judgment. But I agree completely that not participating in the defense of this community disqualifies you from participating in its recovery.

Let how exhausted I look here give you a window into how hard mutual aid organizers have been pushing to keep our neighbors safe and housed when no one else will. Please write to your councilmembers and the mayor and urge them to pass Pause Evictions, Save Lives!

Existing actual social safety nets like Minneapolis Public Housing Authority and St. Paul’s equivalent are among the biggest evictors in their respective county’s court right now.

There is no institutional support for keeping people housed from non-profits or the public sector.

People are still trapped in their homes in my neighborhood here in Jason's ward, unable to go to work (at jobs which may not even exist anymore), sick with worry over how they’ll pay utilities and remain housed.

It's not over. ICE is still here, and the least we can do is afford families more time.

ICE was still riding around dangerously at 1 AM last night. That’s why we can’t rest until every single one of them is gone

tonight we had to go to costco. 7yo had texted me every 30 minutes since 4:30 asking when i can call, and in the last 20 minutes it has become “it doesn’t take 2 hours to go to the store” and “can you hurry up” my god

This is who the Minnesota WILD GM wanted in the US Men's locker room to celebrate. Someone who is actively covering up the murders of 2 Minnesotans.
