The people in Minneapolis are not creating chaos—Trump is. ICE is completely out of control.
Trump is terrorizing an entire city as an act of political retribution.
It's Minneapolis today, it could be Seattle or New York tomorrow. Speaking up matters right now.

Just called and left messages for my reps to use any power they have (orthodox or not) to rein in ICE and stop the occupation of the twin cities. Now is the time to show strength and stand up. Anything less is tacit approval.

Classic blunder. Never invade Russia in the winter.
To any ICE agents reading this who are from down south—you have never experienced anything like this cold. Our European climate equivalent is literally Stalingrad. It will hurt to breathe. You will be outside in it. So will we, but we are used to it.
Next week is what will break you.

We've lead charmed weather lives so far in January.
Temperatures are +5F to +10F across MN so far this month. 🌡️
We're about to be reminded what persistent cold and occasional snow feels like. ❄️
MSP could bottom out -10 to -20 next Tue.

This is evil. It makes me so angry.
A teenage boy was walking home in Minneapolis yesterday when four masked men jumped out of a van & questioned him - with no parent or guardian present.
He was bundled into the van & taken away.
Bystanders heard the boy say: “Can I just go home?”
I don’t know how America comes back from all this.

Dozens of ICE Vehicles in Minnesota Lack ‘Necessary’ Lights and Sirens
A contract justification published in a federal register on Tuesday says that 31 ICE vehicles operating in the Twin Cities area “lack the necessary emergency lights and sirens” to be “compliant.”

This article is BS. The subtext here is that they want to boost birthrates of the "right" people.
Famillies need support and stability. But all of those social services (food, housing, health, child care, parental leave) apply to everyone. The right can't have that.

The US and other countries face aging, shrinking populations. Conservatives have shaped debate over the issue. Some liberals say it's time for progressives to weigh in.
As birthrates tumble, some progressives say the left needs to offer ideas and solutions

I want to find the consultant who convinced Dems to stick with this framing, tie them to a stake, light a match, and tell everyone they have to decide between caring about saving them or caring about milk being 2% cheaper
The White House is laser focused on threatening a military takeover of Greenland.
Where’s the same focus on lowering costs?

Compare and contrast with the absolutely useless statement from @cantwell.senate.gov.
These people hardly believe in anything. They lied to the American people to win an election, and now we're all paying the price.
I opposed the war in Iraq from the outset, and I will oppose any war in Venezuela as well.
No occupation. No "boots on the ground."

Unimportant in the grand scheme of things but just got spam from “SquareSpace Domains” because apparently google is selling my email now for marketing purposes when they sold the domain business. I never consented to spam from google or squarespace.

Crypto has, at this point, become load bearing bullshit.
I hate it. It is largely gambling and money laundering. And it isn’t going away.

Okay. Since I posted this yesterday, so many people have tried to convince me that we "won" against crypto and it's dead. Because they don't hear about it anymore. I really need y'all to pay attention. Crypto is still huge. Not only is it not dead, it continues to cause massive harm.
DEI is banned. Cryptocurrency is still around and has largely succeeded at perpetuating the largest siphoning of wealth I think I'll ever see in my lifetime. Cops are still killing Black people, and now they get to kidnap everybody else too.

The best banana bread recipe ever. I picked this up at a Trader Joe’s next to the bananas something like 25 years ago. Key is over ripe bananas and lots of them.
Making it now. I’ll post a pic when it is done.
