This is deeply disturbing. Minnesota stands with our LGBTQ neighbors against this unthinkable crime. I’m grateful to the law enforcement agencies investigating. Gwen and I send our deepest condolences to Sam’s family and community. apnews.com/article/new-...

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

MN is proud to help feed the world (in fact, this program was created by Hubert Humphrey). Now not only is that in jeopardy, but millions of dollars in income for farmers is too? Disgusting. This food, which we’ve already paid for, is waiting on ships to be delivered to those who need it.

Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do. Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.

Ready for the Reddit exodus? What this is saying is that we should have never centralised social media in the US, all under the same jurisdiction exactly because, if fascism happens like right now, then they all capitulate despite being international platforms. #antifa #anticapitalism #fascism

Elon Musk is now snooping around in your family’s health insurance records at CMS. Why? Because he’s on a power trip and wants to see how he can gut their benefits under the guise that things he doesn’t like is “fraud.”

Still don't think Elon Musk is an overt white supremacist with a grudge, who is currently trying to dismantle USAID because it helped end apartheid in South Africa?

The tornado alert test siren just went off and it was as comforting as music. I couldn't figure out why I got teary-eyed until I realized it was relief at a functional alarm system, one that's still funded, one that still works, blaring the same way it always does on the first Monday of the month.

Genuine question: is there any authorization, anything at all, for a so-called Department of Government Efficiency? an executive order? Anything? Is anyone working for that “department” a government employee? Or is it just a straight up private sector takeover?

When asked if he was going to visit the crash site he said, ‘what site? The water? You want me to go swimming?’ This is one of the last pics of the young skaters who died. He’s a sociopath. Anyone who voted for this monster should be ashamed at best.
