Two things to note:
1. This is an action consistent with a fascist government.
2. They can't arrest us all, and Minnesota will not stand down.

This short clip is incredibly telling. The use of the word theater tells us that they view this as a war - this is a deployment for war.

Mr. Homan, your agents aren't human. They're monsters who have invaded a peaceful place. They deserve to be spit on. They do not deserve service in our community.
Lost my favorite uncle in the 'sota. He did three tours in theater. Went back even after a girl with blue hair was mean to him at a Dairy Queen. Got taken out by an IEHD on his last patrol.
Q: Can you be specific about how many ICE and CBP agents are currently operating in the state?

HOMAN: 3,000. There's been some rotations. They've been in theater a long time. Day after day, can't eat in restaurants, people spin on you, blowing whistles at you. But my main focus now is draw down

86 47 and his whole damn crew.
I'm ready for Nuremberg 2.0.
Trump's FBI raided an election office in Georgia, a state central to his baseless 2020 voter fraud conspiracy theories.

Meanwhile, he's continuing to let actual fraudsters and politically-connected crooks off the hook.

This is what weaponizing government looks like.

Recall on a couple of bikes. If you have one of these, get those rear bolts replaced to prevent catastrophic bike separation.
#RECALL: Rear Bolts on Trek and Electra Electric Bicycles Recalled Due to Fall Hazard; Manufactured by Hyena. The rear wheel bolts can break when torqued, causing the wheel to separate from the bicycle, posing a fall hazard. Get repair. www.cpsc.gov/Recalls/2026...

Glad to see Greg is doing okay following the photo I saw over the weekend (or as okay as one can be when the federal government has sent its fascist police in to terrorize and murder the people of Minnesota). Greg and DreamHaven have always been amazing supporters of the community.
An MS Now clip featuring an old friend, #GregKetter, went viral.

CBS station @wcconews.bsky.social follows up:

"…Owner of a Minneapolis bookstore says his business has seen a surge of online orders & messages of support after a photo of him at a recent protest circulated widely on social media."

It's hard living in the Twin Cities right now. But if it's easy to give in to the fascists, you're probably on the wrong side.

Here's this morning's sunrise for something positive and hopeful. And see the notes for other positive and hopeful things.

Wishing every member of ICE a severe case of food poisoning. And may they choke to death on their own vomit. It's what they deserve.

Remember the concerns of "death panels"? Here's your death panels. Run by AI. Oz needs to go to prison with the rest of the grifters.
In January, the Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services will roll out a pilot program that will use AI to review Medicare patients' requests for care.

Insurers will get rewarded when they deny care.

What could go wrong?

HEADS UP ST PAUL! ICE was just harassing one of our neighbors on the 1500 block of Clear Avenue. No one was taken and everything remained civil, but they had 3 truckloads of ICEholes wearing face coverings and full tactical gear for this.
All vehicles had California plates.

As a Minnesotan, I can confirm that we are NOT being terrorized by said gangs, and any money that's missing is a direct result of federal programs being cut to fund billionaires rather than education, disability services, or systems designed to help those who are most financially insecure.

He thinks the way to distract us from his involvement in child sex trafficking and financial corruption is to remind us he’s ALSO an unrepentant liar, a virulent racist, and a fascist traitor. He’s all the deplorables, the whole basket, so to speak. He’s trying to shoot the moon.
I am a citizen and so are majority of Somalis in America. Good luck celebrating a policy change that really doesn’t have much impact on the Somalis you love to hate. We are here to stay 💁🏽‍♀️

This was the felon's response to the video I posted a bit ago (about people in the military refusing illegal orders). This sounds like incitement to violence to me.

Illegal activity. Punishable by PRISON.
WTAF.
The President of the United States is calling for sitting Members of Congress to be killed.

Every death threat against them and their families will be on his hands.

Regardless of your party, every American should loudly condemn this.

I can't draw, but clearly a noose-shaped ring buoy should be the Coast Guard's official logo.
FASCISM AND ITS SYMBOLS ARE BEING ACCEPTED INTO US MILITARY

Thats the headline
Exclusive: The U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify the swastika, nooses and the Confederate flag as hate symbols.

The military service drafted a new policy that classifies them as “potentially divisive.”
November 20, 2025 at 10:28 PM
The fact that the official spokesbimbo of the White House has said that the president isn't issuing illegal orders is a sign that he is. Most everything out of her mouth has been full on propaganda.
This is the video that has resulted in the felon calling Democrats traitors.
We want to speak directly to members of the Military and the Intelligence Community.

The American people need you to stand up for our laws and our Constitution.

Don’t give up the ship.

The kids have discovered that the radio is already playing winter holiday music and I expect to lose the Mariah Carey game in the very near future.

Fascist police were (and potentially still are) active in St Paul today.

This brutality toward peaceful protesters is unacceptable, along with pretty much every action of this shitshow org. We should be arresting them for assault.
Federal agents (including ICE) used tear gas on peaceful protestors at Bro-Tex Inc. in St. Paul today.

"Fun" fact: people with hypermobility, are more likely to develop bunions (it's just joint instability and deviation). No pointy shoes needed.

I don't know how my great grandma walked on her madly deformed feet. Mine look mild but holy crap I can hardly walk. I'm held together by KT Tape and spite.

Google has gone fully evil. Time to step up my email replacement process.
NEW: Google is hosting a CBP app that uses facial recognition to identify immigrants, and tell local cops whether to contact ICE about the person, while also removing apps designed to warn communities about ICE officials.

“Google wanted to ‘not be evil’ back in the day. Well, they're evil now."

This is wild. I would be pressing charges against both the boy and the school. Schools are TERRIBLE at managing bullying; the excuse the boys far too easily and side far too often with the bullies.

This girl's father is an asshole for not having his daughter's back.
A middle school boy created deepfake AI CSAM of his fellow classmate, a 13 year old girl. The girl pleaded with the school but they did nothing and instead put her on a bus with the perpetrator. She ended up hitting him and was expelled but nothing happened to the boy.

Are you embracing generative AI as an advancement, or are you questioning its worth? Whatever your approach, current gen AI is fundamentally unethical.

I think this is the final update on the garden in an active state. Here are the potatoes! We got just shy of five gallons of potatoes from five planters. While there were a few tiny taters, most were a decent size. They were incredibly easy, and we will definitely be doing these again next year.

Roasting some squash to add to the freezer. Got a great deal of a big ole box of squash (that's what the sign said) at the St Paul Farmers Market, so there's plenty to eat now as we're in the fall harvest mood, and plenty to save for later.

Gourdon, the squash mascot, was here to supervise.
