I don’t think it’s sufficient for Democratic officials to treat these rulings like partisan acts from an out of control activist court. They should be regarded as part of a criminal conspiracy against the republic.

The Confederacy is the party of losers, luddites and racists. More American blood was shed defeating their cruelty, stupidity and malice than any American war before or since. We must defeat them again. America *does* have a manifest destiny. It's to be be a nation of liberty and justice for ALL.

Sometimes very hard not to feel like the rest of the country has abandoned Minnesota. We STILL have ICE everywhere. Our schools, businesses, and economy are in profound crisis. But without Bovino here throwing tear gas, much of the country seems to not care at all what’s being done to us.

The eyes are the lamp of the body. People usually see and judge others by their own intentions and actions. People of good will working to repair the world will assume the best about others. People who are lying, cheating and scheming for power and pleasure will see malice and bad faith everywhere.

There is no moral equivalence between bullies and the bullied, between tyranny and democracy, or between brutality and decency. No individual can be free in a society devoid of justice. There can be no liberty where brutality reigns.

it is incredible to see the extent to which the Sensible Centrists are simply incapable of grasping the very simple and obvious fact that the president's concern with crime is a pretext, and that to deny claims of a sudden epidemic in crime is not to say that crime is nonexistent.

The core tenet of motordom is that the convenience of the driver must be prioritized over all other considerations including the health, prosperity, safety and even lives of other people; especially those traveling outside of a car. This hegemony is baked into policies and engineering standards.

There are so few places in the United States, even in older cities well served by transit, where it is possible to walk without continual exposure to noise, pollution and risk of blunt force trauma from automobiles. Pedestrian/bike only infrastructure is the best way to protect people from cars.

In the US we can’t even rationalize agricultural water policy so I don’t see this happening. As an alternative, discouraging lawns and encouraging pollinator plants (or human habitats such as ADUs and apartments) would go far in supporting local bee populations and preserving their habitats.

Think about what the GOP is revealing with their attempt to suddenly change the Congressional maps: they know their agenda is so unpopular that they're going to lose unless something changes. Of course, what they should be changing is their policies, not the maps.

I’m not an activist, but as someone who reports on people who are, I see some activists sneering at people who are late to a cause they’ve fought hard for. Surely the point of activism is pitching to the centre to make change? Not alienating or mocking those whose minds you surely wanted to change?

A frequent reason given whey we can’t have infrastructure for walking, wheelchairs, bicycles and scooters is funding: “it’s expensive.” NYC has created safe pedestrian spaces all over the city with large rocks. Rocks are cheap.
