AOC has them sputtering mad because she’s educating people on constitutional rights. You don’t see them freaking out at Jeffries for talking about egg prices.

I refuse to believe this nickname focus-tested better than Major Malfunction and Sergeant Sillypants.

Had Pyrrhus not fallen by a beldam's hand in Argos, or Julius Caesar not been knifed to death: they are not to be thought away. Time has branded them and fettered they are locked away in the room of the infinite possibilities they have ousted.

Just saw a farmer say, "you don't have to admit you were wrong, you have to admit you were lied to, " and idk that seems like a good framing to call people in

A veteran Australian sports journalist, Peter Lalor, was fired for retweeting factual posts about Israel’s assault on Gaza, including a tweet from Jewish human rights lawyer Kenneth Roth, which cited two Israeli historians labeling the actions in Gaza as genocide.

A horrific story: A 22-year-old died from an asthma attack after his inhaler jumped from $66 to $539—out of reach when his insurance, a UnitedHealth Group subsidiary, stopped covering it. He struggled to breathe for five days before collapsing. The cruelty of our healthcare system knows no bounds.

The failure of the mainstream media to report on the mind-bogglingly huge Nazi movement being built on Twitter with the full cooperation of the site's leadership is a massive scandal

What I admire about Mayor Frey is he didn't need a DOJ consent decree hanging over his head to make his pledge to fix police in 2017. And after 7+ years in office he sure as hell doesn't need a consent decree hanging over his head to keep making that pledge. Guy is a rock.

Another reason the Project 2025 mafia is focused on criminalizing telehealth abortion: abortion stigma benefits their cause. Normalizing abortion clashes with the entire agenda of white Christian nationalism. (Never mind that white Christian nationalists get abortions, too.)

So are all the Minneapolis crabby patties who are up in arms because bike lanes cause people to park further away allegedly hurting the disabled up in arms about taking buses off Nicollet Mall and pushing people with disabilities a block or blocks further from downtown retail?

I do not see how we’re going to have productive academic discussions of "AI" until we stop accepting the marketing that lumps all machine learning methods & technologies into one amorphous thing called "AI"—so we get minimalist & maximalist responses that echo that marketing—we don’t have to do this

This will be the biggest story locally in 2025. Yesterday was meant to be full-tilt overload but local media will need to center it quickly. The potential loss of hundreds of millions in federal funds affects every local priority.

Last year I learned that a tiny county in northwest Minnesota is responsible for 40% of the state's drug-free zone possession charges and obtains 61% of convictions under those statutes, despite being home to only 0.5% of the population.
