Just a reminder that laws are words on paper, not forces of nature.
If they're unjust, if they're wrong, we can change them.

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

semi-regular reminder that ICE was only created in 2003
when you are asked to imagine a world without ICE, you're basically being asked to remember where you were when Lilo & Stitch came out

In Minneapolis, a network of big $ political committees—All of Mpls, We Love Mpls, and Thrive Mpls—share donors, staff, and messaging.
In July, We Love Mpls was cited by the Campaign Finance Board (CFB) for violating disclosure rules.
Here's why all of them could be in violation of MN laws. 👇

Country fans are upset with Zach Bryan after he criticized ICE in a song.
But don't let it be known that Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Kris Kristofferson, and Johnny Cash all despised fascism and leaned heavily to the left.

Federal agents hurled tear gas at people on a busy Logan Square street, outside a grocery store and near an elementary school.
Reckless, undertrained ICE hires are a danger to everyone. This is terrorism against US citizens.

MN has some of the highest teacher standards, which means paying for lots of school, training, and licensing. 🫠
The US has been leaving school teachers behind for nearly 30 years.
In 20 states, teachers made 25% less than their peers.
What’s the teacher pay gap in your state?

Feel like I’m going insane with the revisionist history that Charlie Kirk fostered open debate. He chilled speech and his targeting of professors for wrongthink led to threats, harassment, and being forced out of their jobs. His legacy is chilling speech right now, about him

The fact that Matthew Dowd lost his job for pointing out Charlie Kirk’s hate speech, while Brian Kilmeade openly suggests we should euthanize the homeless and there is zero outrage, shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

I have written and deleted a lot of posts but I keep thinking about how the brutal assassination of Minnesota State senator Melissa Hortman, her husband Mark, and their beloved dog Gilbert in June did not prompt this same level of calls for empathy, sympathy, and flags at half-mast.

It’s a terrible bill. It will literally kill people. The most vulnerable among us will suffer as the wealthiest benefit. It’s perverse. I wish there were something I could do. But alas, I am only a U.S. Senator from Alaska whose “no” vote would kill the bill. So I voted yes. You get it.
