If my followers have been inspired by the fierce resistance the Twin Cities has put up to ICE, you should make it a point to take a trip here (April through October 😬), enjoy the wonderful things MN has to offer and support our small businesses. It continues to be a really tough time for them.

God it’s great to see two teenage players on the women’s tour with boxes full of women!

Mirra and Mboko both with former WTA stars as their coaches, and an array of other women on the teams.

How did Bad Bunny utter not one word about Trump or authoritarianism at the Super Bowl yet deliver the most power message in 60 years of the game?

Behind Benito's 13-minute love song for the same "neighborism" that's saving Minneapolis from ICE raids

Brewers are like, "We're the best team in this division, and now we will tear it all down and win the division with all new guys as a flex." Brewers, please stop flexing on the NL Central! It's not nice!

:: That was Milwaukee's own SistaStrings performing "America the Beautiful" tonight with Brandi Carlile. Tune in to @tmj4.com after the Olympics for our interview... and a Zoom-bomb from Brandi, herself.

The difference between the human performances on the field (artists and players both) and what the advertising agencies showed us tonight was stark. The advertising industry needs to get its shit together. The shirt I’m wearing tonight was a bit of serendipity (and full of nacho crumbs).

Great bounce back from retiring in the first round at the AO. His serve was on fire today.
Felix Auger-Aliassime wins 6-3, 7⁷-6⁴ against Adrian Mannarino to win Montpellier

His 8th indoor title out of the 9 he's won and defends his title here. Won the last 5 points of that tiebreak.

This looks to be an extraordinary overperformance for Dems. With more than three-fourth of the vote in, the Dem leads by more than 20%.

Greenwashing for SURE. Conventional no-till is just chemical tillage 🤷
NEW: USDA & HHS recently announced the launch of the "Regenerative Agriculture Initiative" (RAI), which sets aside $700 million in existing conservation funds for practices designated as “regenerative.” The program has potential — but falls fall short of what is needed. www.iatp.org/new-regenera...

Watched some of this match over lunch and it was indeed fun! I hope Stan keeps this up all year. Very impressive!
Felix Auger-Aliassime wins 6-4, 7⁷-6³ against Stan Wawrinka in Montpellier

The defending champion takes out the legend in what was a fun match, always great to see Stan take the court in what is his final season, he's closing in on the Top 100 as well.

If you want to FINALLY watch Scott Bessent get pinned down on specifics about the illegal money laundering operation being conducted by the Trump admin from someone who knows WTF he’s talking about, this clip is your chance. Bessent gets destroyed.

TRUMP: You are so bad. You are the worst report. No wonder CNN has no ratings. She's a young woman. I don't think I've ever seen you smile. They should be ashamed of you.
