The people who get offended when I call King David "God's favorite bisexual fuckboi" are an entirely different group of people from those who get offended when I call Alexander of Macedon "God's second favorite bisexual fuckboi."

This pleases me.

Ok. But the Amtrak from MSP to Chicago is gonna be lit, in that case.
Markwayne Mullin: "I agree with what Lindsey is saying on defunding these sanctuary cities. We should pull our TSA agents out of their airports and not allow their airpot to be classified as international or even a regional hub. We should pull all of our aid."

Comer on Fox right now urging Trump to pull ICE out of Minneapolis to *punish* Minnesotans — will prove to the state how good it was to have ICE there! This is really some 5-D chess

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.

CNN said there's unrest in Minneapolis and there's just not. There's very orderly, organized determination. This is not 2020.

A-fucking-men.

Do not comply in advance.
I’m seeing posts from people (outside of MN) about how US citizens should carry their passports.

And let me say that *inside* MN, we are calmly responding to requests with: “No, I don’t have to show you any documentation.”

Because that’s how you protect everyone, regardless of immigration status.

When you succumb to the cynicism, you are helping Trump. He wants you to think that all is lost, that he is all powerful, and that there is nothing we can do.

The fight for democracy is hard, but it is worth having. We have shown we can stand tall. We have shown we can win.
Many of you have become drama-addicted doomers, and you seem to think it's important for the rest of us to join you.

Yes, things are bad. But change is within our power. Grow up. Act like sober, responsible adults in a democracy instead of cynical, all-is-lost teenagers.

Now get off my lawn.

...Which MINNEAPOLIS in particular knows REALLY WELL given that we've done this a time or two on the international stage. Recently, even.
Here’s a comment for the people who are upset that MN hasn’t charged Jonathan Ross already:

If you just Leeeroy Jenkins this shit you will lose and you will empower fascism and murder.

It is indescribably hard to prosecute cops for murder. It is even hard when the murder is ON VIDEO.

This morning in Minneapolis, an ICE vehicle got stuck on an icy hill in a residential neighborhood. Agents had to push the vehicles out, some almost slipping in the ice themselves.

Hey so, I'm from Mpls and my husband drives a red honda pilot. I work in Egypt, and the picture with the blood on the headrest was the first thing I saw on CNN this am, with no name attached. I had to throw up, call my husband, and then cry. He's alright, but I'm not sure I am.

Lotta people get mad at me when I criticize Democratic messaging but THIS IS HOW DEMOCRATS SHOULD BE TALKING. Like normal people using normal language to communicate normal human emotions about the fucked up situation.

I keep reposting things with discussions of how close all of this is to my home (physical), but I don't think it matters given how small a city MSP is and how close it is to home (emotional).

We need a rent-a-bubbe service in Judaism. Don't have grandkids? Grandkids don't care about family lore and recipes? Rent yourself out to an adult convert who would KILL for Hanukkah advice and a cholent recipe!
The problem with being an adult convert to Judaism is that I had no one to teach me the secret of getting the candles straight in the Hanukkiah

Dear Sean Duffy,

I will happily dress up to fly when you can give me leg room and a reasonable assurance I won't be sleeping on the terminal floor because my flight was fucked. Otherwise? It's leggings and a hoodie, and you should be grateful I brushed my hair.
Duffy: "Trump talks about the golden age of transportation. But the golden age in transportation truly begins with you ... People dress up like they're going to bed when they fly ... so we want to push people as we come into a really busy travel season: Help people out, be in a good mood, dress up"

At the same time the NY Times was hyping Hillary Clinton's emails, it had a reporter with emails from Jeffrey Epstein that were highly damaging to Trump.

The more NYT apologists try to minimize this the clearer it becomes that they don't understand why much of the public doesn't trust legacy media.
