It's genuinely insane that many of the newspaper columnists who cheered us into the war in Iraq are still employed at big legacy outlets cheering us into a new war with Iran.
These are “low enrollment” majors but the classes are regularly at capacity. They changed the funding structure a few years ago here, switching the allocation from course enrollments to majors then blamed these departments for a structural, top-down change. This is entirely a political choice.
He’s just listing horrific murders committed by immigrants and people of color and painting sanctuary cities as uninhabitable. These are the same narratives that white nationalists have pushed forever. This is what you would have heard from Council of Conservative Citizens decades ago.
This is the SAVE Act that Trump is discussing tonight.
I worked in the Newberry’s special collections in college and remember handing a man a book in Cherokee. He became visibly overwhelmed with emotion and it’s always stuck with me. So thrilled these materials are getting the care and attention they deserve.
Pregnant immigrants in Minnesota have been postponing their abortions, skipping aftercare, and delaying birth control visits and urgent cancer screening follow-ups to avoid coming in contact with federal immigration agents.
The Trump admin is imprisoning pregnant children—many who are victims of rape—in Texas, where they will be forced to carry high-risk pregnancies without proper medical care. A particularly horrifying example of the violent misogyny and racism that are the bedrock of their political project.
This is why Minnesotans are begging folks outside the state to keep talking about us.
Please don’t let the world forget we are still in danger.
ICE agent wearing skull mask that is usually associated with the neo Nazi atomwaffen group
Fucking surreal that people dressed like this and carrying assault rifles are permitted to kidnap people off our streets
St Brigid of Kildare
Happy St Brigid’s Day! St Brigid helped spread Christianity in Ireland, becoming the abbess of a powerful convent. When a nun came to her, pregnant and scared, St Brigid laid hands on her belly, prayed, and induced a miraculous abortion.
34,000 signing up for this work AFTER seeing their fellow citizens gunned down by federal thugs in cold blood? I'm chugging whatever the opposite of doomerism is
A Minnesota woman observing ICE agents in her car was cornered on one-way streets. An agent approached, called her by name—citing facial recognition. Days later, her Global Entry and TSA privileges were revoked, with no explanation.
CNN: Florida Rep. Maxwell Frost assaulted at Sundance Film Festival event, police say By Aleena Fayaz Updated Jan 24, 2026
NBC News: Man lunges at Ilhan Omar during town hall and tries to spray her with unknown substance January 27, 2026
Two Democratic members of Congress attacked in three days. Maxwell Frost was assaulted on Saturday, Ilan Omar tonight.
screenshot of text from Adam Serwer in The Atlantic: "The secret fear of the morally depraved is that virtue is actually common, and that they're the ones who are alone. In Minnesota, all of the ideological cornerstones of MAGA have been proved false at once. Minnesotans, not the armed thugs of ICE and the Border Patrol, are brave. Minnesotans have shown that their community is socially cohesive - because of its diversity and not in spite of it. Minnesotans have found and loved one another in a world atomized by social media, where empty men have tried to fill their lonely soul with lies about their own inherent superiority. Minnesotans have preserved everything worthwhile about "Western civilization," while armed brutes try to tear it down by force."

Is it still second-hand embarrassment if the other person appears incapable of feeling shame or engaging in one second of self reflection?
DHS's assistant secretary for public affairs denied posting an except of the song "We'll Have Our Home Again" to The New York Times, after I pointed out to the reporter they shared it on Instagram. She said it had "no relation" to the song performed by members of the Mannerbund. (It does.)
A group, one of many, holding candles in honor of a community member executed by an unaccountable paramilitary invasion force
This is Minneapolis.
Literally every corner along Lake St. packed with people holding candles, many singing, honoring a person who by all accounts was an absolute gem of a human, whose life was tragically stolen by a fascist, paramilitary occupation force.
Rick speaking like this should be noted. This is not how he posts.
they're executing moms and nurses in the street. they're using preschoolers as bait. they're stealing people's dads and grandmas and children. they're tear gassing babies. they're staking out schools. there is no remedy but abolition. any proposal that doesn't start there is an act of violence.
“‘We were willing to do for this man, this human, what they were not willing to do for Renee Good,’ Zemien said.”
Jasmine Crockett: “You only care about following the rules so long as you can invoke those rules on what is typically perceived as your political enemies—
You only love law enforcement when they're going after black, brown, immigrants, that kind of folk, right?“
a heavily armed paramilitary force with legal immunity is occupying a city and going door to door kidnapping non-white adults and children in furtherance of an explicitly white nationalist political project
Golden valley PD confirmed there are federal vehicles in the church parking lot. Unclear what they are doing or what their goal is. Neighboring school activated their Stay Indoors policy to keep students inside.
ICE is terrorizing schoolchildren in the Twin Cities again today
I don’t think people quite understand that the occupation by ICE in the Twin Cities has more or less erased non-white people from public life. They cannot safely exist in any space accessible to the public and moving between private places leaves folks vulnerable to kidnapping by armed masked goons.
Over the weekend, the White House and the Department of Homeland Security shared posts with a song, "We'll Have Our Home Again."
I dug into the group that performed and popularized it. Its cofounder said his goal was to create "the seed of an eventual government." www.splcenter.org/resources/ha...

There you have it; the Trump admin allows ICE lawyer James Rodden to stay on the job. His personal social media account praised Hitler, supported white nationalism, and said that America started going downhill the day that Lincoln was elected.
Today at 34 & Park in Minneapolis, a woman tried to drive down the street where a protest had broken out in front of a home ICE was raiding, saying she had a doctor apt to get to. ICE agents busted out her windows, cut off her seatbelt, and pulled her out before arresting her.
I really want ppl w/o Minneapolis connections to understand
You might've heard that Mpls public schools went hybrid bc so many families are in hiding. Well, a coworker just told me that today, during his kid's hybrid class, a kid's apt building was raided onscreen
*Everyone has stories like this*
