MASSIE: โIran is not Venezuela. The Ayatollah was not a president. He was a religious leaderโฆ ๐บ๐ธ & ๐ฎ๐ฑ turned him into a martyr, expended billions, 6 ๐บ๐ธ families must now lay to rest their sons & daughters. And for what? This administration can't even give us a straight answer.โ

"U.S. military investigators believe it is likely that U.S. forces were responsible for an apparent strike on an Iranian girls' school."
"The strike would rank among the worst cases of civilian casualties in decades of U.S. conflicts in the โMiddle East."
A Hennepin County sheriffโs deputy has been placed on administrative leave after being charged with felony criminal sexual conduct in connection with an alleged off-duty assault in Albertville.
The people of Minneapolis and Minnesota kicked Bovino out of our state and got Kristi Noem fired. We still have a long way to go but this is because of the love and resistance of our neighbors and the resiliency of our immigrant community.

Unfortunately, maniac bounty hunter is indistinguishable from standard by the book federal law enforcement activity.
A white Ford Transit van that is labeled "Midwest Plumbing". This is not a real company.
We saw an uptick in ICE activity today.
ICE continues to be spotted around the metro area - dining, driving, and hiding in between events.
Current vehicles on the short list include Black Chevrolet Tahoes, White or Silver Jeep Wagoneers, and White Ford Transit vans with fake branding.
"We have a federal agency that has the budget of some militaries in other countries, has descended on our cities, has created chaos and havoc in our communities, and we're asking for the bare minimum. We're asking for more time."
"I fear some [council members] are indifferent." Have you paid someone's rent, organized a fundraiser, gone on patrol, found someone an attorney, done someone's laundry, delivered groceries, held a baby of someone sheltering in fear? "If not you may be too far removed to have good judgment."
โICE/CBP YOUR ACTIONS WILL HAUNT YOUโ
North Minneapolis, February 2026
NEW: Josรฉ Antonio Zayas Cabรกn invites me into his home to talk about the return of classic Open Streets events, hosted by his org, Our Streets. Plus he explains how community reaction to a violent occupation shows how "democratized economies" are more resilient.

2022: We worry that substantive due process lets judges impose their policy preferences under the guise of โfundamental rightsโ that donโt appear in the Constitution
2026: Surprise! The due process clause requires schools to out trans students to their parents. We found it hidden there all along!
when i was caucusing flanagan showed up, delivered a concise and moving speech, and made her goals explicit and inspiring.
craig did not even send somebody in her stead and a volunteer decided to try and do a mostly unsuccessful pitch for her after Peggy's speech left people clapping

I hope as youโre organizing with your neighbors to protect immigrant families, youโre building foundations for more anti-carceral organizing.
Everything youโve heard about how bad the conditions are in Whipple is true of Hennepin County Jailโฆwhich might even be worse. So when you watch the videos of sheriffโs deputies assaulting protestors outside of Whipple, just know that is also happening inside of our jail downtown
People are just assets to use and discard
One of my favourite sides of politics/media.
I have never seen a politician more directly copy this speech in my life
The U.S. military said three service members have been killed and five others seriously wounded since the operations began. They are the first known American casualties from the fighting.
At 8:30 PM on Saturday night we have ICE in the quarry parking lot and they start driving off erratically through the City the minute people go up and try to talk to them. Their lawlessness and terror continues so please continue to be out there looking out for your neighbors and staying safe.

@RepJeffries on X: Donald Trump promised to keep America out of costly and endless foreign wars. He is now doing the exact opposite in the Middle East. Congress must vote on a War Powers resolution immediately. 28 Feb 26
While Republicans fully support Trump's war with Iran, Democratic leaders do not oppose it. There is no effective opposition.
Hakeem Jeffries is merely demanding that the administration "must explain itself to the American people and Congress" and "provide an ironclad justification."
Absolutely horrifying. This refugee survived genocide and died because of the gross incompetence of federal immigration agents.
When the Supreme Court allowed immigration agents to consider race during sweeps, Justice Brett Kavanaugh said that citizens shouldnโt be concerned because agents will โpromptly let the individual go.โ
For these Americans, that wasnโt true.

Very very glad he's there. But I want to remind people that Dilley operated as a family detention center from late 2014 when it opened under Obama through 2021 when the Biden admin ended family detention by shifting it to single adult detention. Trump has made it worse, but it started very bad.
ICE "should be abolished, but also it should be prosecuted" - Democratic Rep. @sethmoulton.bsky.social, from the centrist wing of the party, tells me he wants his party leadership to go further than just reforming ICE. Doing that is "no longer believable."

Aliya Rahman, woman who was dragged out of car by ICE in Minneapolis: "I've spent the last month learning the names of the tendons in my shoulder, because both of my shoulders are torn -- cartilage and tendons. But what I haven't learned is the names of the people who did this to me."
Trump on Democrats: "The only way they can get elected is to cheat. And we're gonna stop it. We have to stop it."
