SEN. SCHMITT: You deny seeing Bon Jovi at State Farm Arena that night in Atlanta? You just perjured yourself. JACK SMITH: I don’t even like- SEN. KLOBUCHAR: There was a Bon Iver thing that night in Eau Claire. SMITH: That’s right, Amy. I saw you there. KLOBUCHAR: Living room deal. It was nice.

Ugh. I hope he's doing ok. Seems very on-brand for MN sports team to lose a key player in a preseason game.

This is insane. I was reading Orwell at age 14 in school. Under these rules, I wouldn't even be able to borrow the book from the library. And kids aren't allowed to purchase ANYTHING from the library bookstore? They can't even ENTER it?? How could even one person think this is a good idea? INSANE

I figured I'd make an attempt to transition to MapQuest, but it already has no record of the second address I entered. It is a long-established address (not newly created for new construction or anything) so this is not looking promising.

Yeah, sure. Minnesota is so incompetent that they attempted to hack their own water systems, failed, and also accidentally hacked systems in several other states as well. Soooo much more plausible than the perpetrator being a country he has waged war against.

Alright, I’m home now so here’s the Norm update. Yesterday at 4pm, I got a text from a family I’ve been helping who had a loved one abducted a couple of days after Renée Good’s murder. This was the family that Norm Nation kept from being evicted (and you delivered). ICE had released their loved one.

Currently listening to Senators Smith and Klobuchar go to bat for the Boundary Waters. I appreciate their late night effort, but am near tears as I listen to them talk about its importance and the major threat against it. Hasn't our state suffered enough? www.savetheboundarywaters.org

AMERICANS having fun is a great thing! It's obvious this was a special day - I believe someone else mentioned the last day of Ramadan. (Not that it matters, but MOA doesn't look like this on a typical day. Certainly not when I was there 2 days ago. Just know that this is a cherry-picked video.)

Oh, sure. Except a Real ID is not proof of citizenship. Most people don't carry a passport around, assuming they even have one. I've never known anyone to carry copies of their birth certificate/marriage/divorce documentation. Mullin continues to exhibit a great lack of critical thinking skills.

Stauber, along with the rest of the state’s federal republican delegation, introduced the Minnesota Voter Integrity Act.

If passed, federal election assistance funds would be withheld from Minnesota until the state gives the Department of Justice its voter registration and election data for review.

Stauber claims doing so would help ensure Minnesota’s election process is accurate and protected.

One of the hardest things to explain to people who aren’t here is the very real feeling that we are in a war against the federal government. Not only are we occupied by unaccountable armed, masked paramilitaries, but we are constantly aware our neighbors might be abducted in the blink of an eye.

Hope to see more people soul-searching like this in the coming days. www.startribune.com/chris-madel-...

Quote from linked article:

"He said he had read about and spoken to many U.S. citizens who were detained by ICE in Minnesota "due to the color of their skin," including several law enforcement officers who had been pulled over by federal immigration agents on pretextual stops.

“Driving while Hispanic is not a crime," he said. “Neither is driving while Asian."

At the end of the day, Madel said, "I have to look my daughters in the eye and tell them, 'I believe I did what was right.' And I am doing that today.""

Hey, media! May I kindly recommend NOT hiding videos of what is happening behind a paywall? I respect that the work you do deserves compensation, but right now so much more is at stake. If we continue to decline as a nation, you will no longer be free to do your job anyway. Get the info out there!

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.
