We are in truly revolutionary times, everything is on a pivot point in a way it hasn’t been in the world for 80 years.

Politicians & folks with positional power are scrambling to keep things business as usual.

Meanwhile we are collectively scaring the shit out of the owning class. Keep pushing.

I REFUSE TO BELIEVE that a fund this wealthy doesn't have the institutional memory that we come to this precipice every 5 years whenever there's a crisis in Minnesota and that you all have to be PUBLICLY SHAMED in order to get resources and money to affected communities.

Your reminder that when Donald Trump says that he wants an “honorable and honest investigation” into the ICE public executions of Alex Pretti and Renee Good, what he’s doing is setting the frame for later so that when they get away with murder he can say the investigation was “honorable & honest.”

Coming back to this in a longer form but what inspires me is all the mutual aid. People powered philanthropy has been overwhelming in this moment. WHO IS STAYING SILENT AND NOT WRITING CHECKS: large MN foundations. At least not in my circle. I won’t name names but it starts with B and ends with ush.

There’s a rally going on in Boston rn and they’re chanting “we’re not cold, we’re not afraid, MN taught us to be brave!” and I might cry

I’m glad to see that Gov. Walz and the Boy Mayor are back on their “I’M SUPER SERIOUS NOW GUYS,” messaging again.

I believe the next stop on the messaging calendar telling ICE that they’re going to hold their breath.

There’s a post circulating from Maryland about how whistles are not useful.

Psyops are real.

Make noise. Get help. Scare off those fuckers and cluster multiple witnesses. We don’t know someone’s in trouble if we don’t make noise.

The right wing conspiracy theory is that the new state flag was made to look like the flag of Somalia. Never mind that it doesn’t, and that literally makes no sense, and it was approved by the state legislature. So when Vance uses the old flag, he’s saying he’s a racist… and also delusional.
Highlighting:
That's not the MN State flag anymore.
A major reason for the change was specifically blatant racist, anti-Indigenous imagery.
It is a specific choice to use this flag.
Minority extremists use the old flag as a dog whistle.
The Vice President is prominently dog whistling.

The nice thing is that Trump will be suspending elections anyway, so we don’t even have to hold our nose!
A Democratic official close to Klobuchar framed it as a “preliminary step necessary for any candidate considering a run.”

I don't know what Democrats running for office need to hear this today, but THE CONVENTION RULES FOR CAMPAIGNING ARE SUSPENDED DUE TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT ARRESTING CITIZENS FOR DISSENT. PICK A SIDE AND SUIT UP.

Also, fuck you Angie Craig for all of this. Just run as a Republican already.

Disrupting church services is a tactic that has precedent during times of crisis. Any good Christian who reads their Bible can tell you that prophets of the god of Abraham were often scolded and hated for speaking truth. Prosecuting disruptors at the federal level is a desperate act of control.

The most humbling lessons I've learned in organizing are simply:

Just because you're not doing it doesn't mean it's not being done.

Just because it's not being done to your liking doesn't mean it's not working.

Just because you point out flaws doesn't mean you've come up with a solution.

As someone who tested at an IQ of 126 when they were 12 years-old, I can tell you this much about intelligence quotient tests:

They’re racist, rooted in misogyny, and the last vestiges of how we institutionalize ableism.

AND … the only people obsessed with them would test below 12 year-old me.

On MLK Day, my challenge to the white (and some POC) folks is this:
Replace "regardless" of race, gender, sexual orientation, national origin, etc., with "BECAUSE OF RACE, GENDER ... " when you think about solutions to the -isms.

Being unaware of identity is how good people stay silent.

Non-violent direct action doesn’t mean doing nothing. You’re still being asked to act. ICE is the state agency being violent.

ICE has been here for 43 days but thanks for noticing! Nothing gets by these intrepid journalists!

Someone commented "Newsome/Frey 2028" on the NYT slobjob.

After I threw up a little bit, I was like, NO THAT ACTUALLY TRACKS FOR THOSE TWO OPPORTUNISTS.

Your reminder that when a bootlicker claims that they're "just thinking about the worker" when it comes to spray painting corporately-owned property, ask them how they feel about unions, strikes, and earned sick and safe time for said worker.
January 14, 2026 at 7:45 PM
Your reminder that ICE is targeting the most vulnerable in Minneapolis because our mayor made it easy for them. 4/5 of the tribal citizens who were targeted were unhoused. Jacob Frey's anti-homeless campaigns have done nothing to find solutions other than, "DON'T BE HOMELESS IN PUBLIC."

Chief O'Hara was just on 1A on NPR and was asked what he's doing to keep Minneapolitans safe and literally said HOPES AND PRAYERS.

LIKE HE'S NOT IN CHARGE OF THE FORCE THAT KILLED GEORGE FLOYD.

GODDAMN.
