Can't even buy a house with your penis anymore, that's today's America for you.

Make houses the price of penises again lol.

Erik Larson's book, "In the Garden of Beasts" has far too many parallels. "Germany (America) was merely the stage for some grotesque comedy, not a serious country in a serious time."

I keep having people at work tell me that his time is up for one reason or another. There is a "plan" to show the election is rigged, there is a "plan" to impeach him and put Vance into office, and I'm always like, no there's not?
I no longer believe that there is a “last straw” when it comes to Trump. There really isn’t any depravity he has not yet committed.

This holiday season, we ask you to take action. Shop at immigrant-owned businesses in Minneapolis: buy groceries, share a meal, purchase gifts, and spend time in our vibrant commercial corridors.

minneapolis, be aware - national right wing youtuber nick shirley is here. he was in loring park this afternoon sniffing around somali businesses. remember that he was at lake and bloomington, despite not living here, so he seems to get early information

Another way to stand up to ICE is to give good reviews on the businesses most affected. Obviously better if you buy food from them, but if you don't have the money (it's tough out here), giving good reviews on places is a small and easy way to help.
Heard tonight Hola Arepa got review-bombed after standing up to ICE but was able to get the reviews tossed (didn’t catch which platform).
Hey all, a friend’s cafe and comedy club, @sprtsdrnk.bsky.social, is getting review bombed on Google because they helped stand up to ICE. If you’ve ever been there or live in New Orleans, please drop them a positive review.

Disheartening to see federal agents take two neighbors on 29th & Pillsbury. Chemical irritants were used on observers by them.

MPD showed up on scene, created a pathway for these federal agents to kidnap our neighbors, and assisted with controlling the space. Disappointing and heartbreaking.

It's clear from the article that ICE is *miserable* here. They're freezing their asses off and being harassed everywhere they go. Property managers aren't allowing them access to rental properties and people know their rights and aren't letting them in.

KEEP IT UP.

This article is sympathetic towards ICE but still a good read because it's clear that Minneapolis and Saint Paul are doing AMAZING work (with a little assistance from our weather).

ICE detain U.S. citizen for looking Somali—use illegal chokehold to tackle him to ground.

Man repeatedly begs agents to look at his digital passport ID—they refuse.

Drove him 7 miles away before releasing him alone into Minnesota snow storm—told him to "walk home" in freezing weather advisory.

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

Respectfully, Congresswoman, you voted with Republicans to strip due process from immigrants and to praise Trump's ICE. This year.

Now you're upset?

Votes have consequences. Minnesotans deserve better.
ICE agents followed a Burnsville family home from the store, failed to present a warrant and entered their home with guns drawn. They detained 4 legal citizens who presented documentation, leaving a 7 year-old without parents.

A seven-year-old. Let that sink in. Trump’s ICE is out of control.

This is awful.
ICE raided Augsburg University in Minnesota and allegedly pointed guns at students.

They didn’t have a warrant to be on private property, and students are shaken and left feeling unsafe.

At least one was detained.

They’re not going after criminals.

They’re grabbing anyone they can.

One of the biggest drivers of high housing costs is that a small, highly motivated group of incumbent homeowners block new housing in their neighborhoods and almost no one is organized to push back.

Young people bear the brunt of that imbalance.

I've been reading a lot of Economic articles on highways for a class paper recently, and came across this NBER paper titled, "Contribution of Highway Capital to Industry and National Productivity Growth." I just had to link the quote here as I think that's a wild thing to include in an Econ paper.

I have a grand total of zero patience left for the top paid city staff in charge of community safety not being able to answer basic questions about crime trends and personnel allocations as we deliberate our budget.
Worth watching not just because it's fun. The Frey admin choosing to implement the budget priorities of their friends over their foes is not how the council's power of the purse is supposed to work.
