I am not alone in this, but I’ve been making music during this pandemic: gregsullo.bandcamp.com/ It does not sound like Dinosaur Feathers, but I like it.

Incoming Rep. Don Leonard says top House Democrats have threatened to “make [his] life a living hell” and cost him re-election if he continues attaching conditions to his support for Hakeem Jeffries for speaker. His conditions: 1) a vote on an amendment to end Citizens United and 2) “end U.S. support for the war in Iran and the country, Israel, that led us into it.” He says Jeffries is refusing to meet with him and the threats are like something “out of a movie.”

Mike Rogers will be another rubber stamp for Donald Trump’s dangerous agenda. We can’t afford to give MAGA another Senate seat in November. #MISEN

Joe Rad is jumping through major hoops to try to distract you from the fact that he married his sister. This is almost certainly true.
Democrats should understand that the allegation is almost certainly true—whatever conclusion they draw from that point could vary—and her denials calling it a right-wing, Islamophobic or racist conspiracy are almost certainly not.

ICE is hunting down immigrants with the help of Palantir. In six months, Palantir’s founder, @PeterThiel, will be able to start spending unimaginable sums of money —completely tax-free — to bankroll the political causes dear to his heart. He'll be able to do it thanks to a tax-avoidance scheme he’s been building for more than 20 years, at a staggering cost to the American taxpayer. Let me explain. 🧵

Sure, this guy is an idiot, but it’s a joke that Kamala’s rebrand is posting this as if she didn’t run alongside Liz Cheney and promise the “most lethal military” in the world. Trump is only putting into practice the vision Kamala promised, and that both parties have built.
Joe Rogan guest: This war shit bugs me. I feel so stupid. Because when they were doing their no war thing, that was a big deal to me. No more wars, fuck yes, focus on the country, why are we blowing up children in other countries for oil? It's literally the opposite now. How many Iranian schoolgirls did Trump blow up?

This, is what the internet often refers to as “cope.” Jamison is no different than Frey and Shaffer. Just get off this sinking ship!
For progressives who have their doubts about Jamison, he is probably the best ally they could ask for. Despite being friendly with moderates, he has been diligent in calling for more transparency from the City & has been critical of its processes where Shaffer et. al have not.

In what world would Minneapolis, the FACE of resistance, want an ICE attorney representing the district???????? Imagine being delusional enough to believe this city forgets.
The Justice Department attorney who made headlines for telling a federal judge “this job sucks” at a hearing on President Trump’s immigration arrests in Minnesota says she is planning to run for Congress in November. wapo.st/3Nhk9TO

MPD has not submitted a single case involving federal agents for charging. Tomorrow MPD will be before the council, I want to hear from them why. Neighbors have seen way more than their fair share of criminal behavior by ICE
Replying to @WedgeLIVE
Stevenson: What are you getting from them? Moriarty: We have not had a case submitted to us from MPD involving federal agents.

December 5: Chief O'Hara says if his officers witness ICE using unlawful force, "I expect them to intervene, or they'll be fired." February 23: MPD has no interventions to report. lims.minneapolismn.gov/Board…

MPD Chief O'Hara responded to questions from the CCPO that shows MPD only responded when they got calls from ICE for assistance--not the community--and that they never asked ICE agents to identify themselves.

A good reminder in case you mistakenly thought Frey, Walz, and Witt were on the side of protecting immigrant neighbors. Instead, they’re bending to Trump’s will. But we will not stop until ICE is abolished 🌹
Homan: "I want to thank Governor Walz ... I also want to thank Mayor Frey ... I want to thank Police Chief O'Hara. We've seen a big change here in the last couple weeks. It's all good change."

Didn’t have @DeRushaJ supporting ICE staying in Minneapolis on my BINGO card. Good to remember who supported ICE sticking around to terrorize my neighbors and my kids schools everyday.
Minneapolis City Council never misses a chance to give businesses the middle finger. So frustrating

To be clear, this is a victory, which was won by ordinary people putting their lives on the line in the streets of Minneapolis while almost all their elected leaders kept quiet or made only muted criticism.
Border Patrol chief Greg Bovino has reportedly been ousted from his role as “commander at large,” and will return to El Centro, where he is expected to retire soon theatlantic.com/politics/202…

If Anthony Edwards came out and said “we are not taking the court until ICE is out of our state” he would be the most beloved athlete since Muhammad Ali

Noteworthy that neither the mayor of Minneapolis nor the governor of Minnesota threw their support behind this action prior to today. Dem leadership in the state just sat around and watched this unfolded then some, like Mayor Frey rushed to join the photo-ops once it was underway
Thousands and thousands of people have poured into the streets for Minnesota general strike demanding ICE out of their state. Footage via @BTnewsroom.

Jacob Frey saw the terror campaign ICE was conducting in Minneapolis and thought, “you know, they should do this in a different city.”

If a newspaper starts reporting on crazy shit happening around the chief of police AFTER the election, and you know they had the info before, would you feel deceived by the newspaper?

Tonight @GovTimWalz is going to speak at this event that: 1. Is organized by a former staffer of GOP State Auditor candidate Elliot Engen (who is anti-choice, anti-worker, and a Charlie Kirk disciple), 2. Is being backed by people who were just fundraising for the very politicians that killed Walz’s special session on gun control, and 3. Is supporting a candidate who is actively courting Trump voters and donors as the best option to see *their* values protected. Apparently here in Minnesota, our party leaders would rather be GOP-lite than stand up for Democratic values. It’s makes me sad. We deserve better.
Surprised that Tim Walz even knows where Minneapolis is, nobody here could find his ass when Minneapolis teachers went on strike for better wages. Frey and Walz must have bonded over the fact that most people don’t want either of them to run for a 3rd term.
