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 the Brownsville Clinic opened in 1916, it was the first birth control center in America. Its very existence felt impossible. For young women, it was a lifeline.
109 years later, the Clinic is long closed—but Brownsville mothers are still struggling.

When this statement from university prez came out ten days ago, it has ~ 180 signatures.
Today it is nearing 600.

A hard choice for many of these institutions. Especially earliest signers, who had no idea how much company they'd have.
But people keep standing up.

I love this: "Today, when the phone call was scheduled, Putin was on stage at an event. When his interviewer asked if he needed to go because he would be late for the call, Putin dismissed the question and laughter broke out."
Putin treats Trump like Trump treats everyone else.

4 years ago Trump incited a deadly riot on our Capitol. He tries to tell you what you saw with your own eyes wasn't real, his associates deleted texts and told lies for him. The fact remains today- Donald Trump is a weak, cowardly traitor to our country.

What will the world actually look like at 1.5°C of warming?
By the time we hit that temperature, further climate changes will already be locked in and unavoidable.

Someone needs to hear this.... You can buy rechargeable AA & AAA batteries. And you should!🔋
They last for a decade, save you SO much money (buying 1 battery is like buying 100 single use batteries), and they are WAY better for the planet
Such a simple way to cut down your toxic waste creation 💚

Perhaps there is some solace to be taken from the fact that many Trump voters are more ignorant than hateful, but that doesn't make the fight ahead any easier.
