Minnesota noice

I don’t know how our nation recovers, but it sure isn’t through more hate and division. Proud of everyone who showed up today. #TogetherWeRise #NoKings

The day started with tragedy with political violence in MN and instead of being scared, neighbors SHOWED UP to stand together at No Kings Twin Cities. We packed the Capitol Mall all the way to the Cathedral. Estimate 80,000+ right now. So proud of our state. #nokings #indivisible

What a legacy and what a tragedy 19thnews.org/2025/06/rep-...

Reading is a powerful way to learn, grow, & gain empathy. Books can help us understand what's happening around us—& how to take action to create a better world 💓

I legit bought this simple hat thrifting last night and didn’t realize until I got home that adding an X would make it the perfect protest gear. #NoKings #RiseUp #Resist

Thank you, journalists. A free press is ESSENTIAL.

“Mom” and “Dad” are fighting and I’m overwhelmed with hope emancipation may finally be possible.

must be incredibly frustrating and disheartening to have federal funding that was promised to you for important work suddenly and arbitrarily ripped away

Instacart needs a “cancel whole order if this one item isn’t available” button. Just sayin.

They’re not banning books because they’re dangerous—They’re banning them because they expose the truth. 📚 Erased tells the history they tried to bury—& now they’re coming for it. If it’s “too dangerous to teach,” you need to read it. ⚠️Read it before they ban it for good: stan.store/gxldsociety/...

That tracks… Small business owners are some of the hardest, most invested workers. Kudos.

How about some real repercussions for liars, already…

Loud and clear for everyone in the back!

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Reminder that words matter. You can’t “deport” a US citizen. You might be kidnapping, disappearing, exiling, expelling, illegally removing, etc., but you’re not “deporting” a US citizen.

Stand up. Speak out. Encourage others. đź’™

RIP, Pope Francis … May your legacy of advocating for others, and empathy, live on and flourish.

Way to go, Minnesota! I was there in spirit.

Dear senators who think you can’t do anything, Today, Senator Van Hollen - through diplomatic pressure - got a meeting with Abrego Garcia in El Salvador. So that thing you’re thinking about doing? DO IT. ~ All of Us

Criminals deserve due process because due process is literally how we determine whether someone is, *in fact*, a criminal

Proof. For what is so obviously true.

I’ve been waiting for this… What have we learned from history and successful dissent? Read! 💙

Some American pride returns… Come on, we can do this! We have to. #HandsOff #WePersist

Yes! Kudos and thank you.

This AI explanation finally resonates with me; I was admittedly struggling to connect with those fiercely opposing it. Thanks @chuckwendig.bsky.social

Sooo… There’s no limit to how many illegal orders you sign? You can just keep trying without repercussion? Asking for a friend. ALL the friends.

There are scores of anti Trump/DOGE/Musk protests planned for April 5 handsoff2025.com

WIRED talked to actual federal auditors about how government auditing works — and how DOGE is doing the opposite.

From banned books to banned words, Trump's no-no's include: "biased," "climate science," "women," "socioeconomic," "underprivileged," and "inequality." “Men” is not on the taboo list, in deference to the political ascendency of the Manosphere, of course.

This is blood-boiling. Charles Rogers was awarded the Medal of Honor in Vietnam after being wounded three times leading the defense of a position. Google his name and the entry below comes up. When you click, you'll see the page has been deleted and the URL changed to include "DEI medal."

This is so evil that it defies understanding. A transplant surgeon on an H1B visa was deported, despite a court injunction. She had committed no crimes. This must stop. We must stand together to protect immigrants and visitors against state terrorism. www.providencejournal.com/story/news/l...

My cousin wrote a book called “When my mom had cancer” and it reminds me how when I became a SMC, I wanted to find children’s books that addressed the topic. If this interests you & you’re able to help, please do! #kickstartercampaign #dogoodfeelgood www.facebook.com/share/p/1Uag...

Over here welcoming temporary pain to avoid history-book pain. Go Canada! Mexico! France! Sweden! Denmark! Ukraine! … Keep uniting, boycotting USA. I know when I’m on a losing team.

“Insanity is not a strategy.”

Everyone should be screaming like this! More of this, now please!

Medicaid is “Medical Assistance” in Minnesota. And everyone deserves healthcare. Full stop.

That sign is a factual statement, not opinion. If it’s not factual, I want to see the school’s edits.

Below are the words the New York Times has identified that the Trump administration has erased or discouraged in websites and documents:

Proud to be a St. Paul public school parent.

♿Social Security is NOT just for Seniors. It's also for people like me with Disabilities, people who receive Survivors Benefits & Veterans who receive Social Security benefits. Before I became disabled, I PAID into the program with EVERY paycheck. There are MILLIONS more like me & it is OUR MONEY!♿
