There is no topic in urban planning that has been more exhaustively researched than food deserts. And this research has all shown that the actual constraint is time, not access. Low-income people tend to have less time to cook fresh meals.

Bernie Sanders is energizing voters to show up and elect Dems, in spite of serving as an Independent since 1978. While Angie Craig joined the GOP in a vote to thank ICE and is running in the primary against the DFL. And says the last thing we need in the senate is another Bernie Sanders.

If Chief O’Hara’s deleted text messages contained references to his inappropriate sexual relationship with a subordinate, one can only imagine what was in the text messages Mayor Frey has been routinely deleting for over a decade.

This upcoming election, we should talk about Agape - specifically how they were hired by Frey as a campaign function and muscle clearing out George Floyd Sq, and many of them were later rounded up on RICO charges by Frey's friend Andy Luger. - Your mans is a special kind of user

This is probably almost as repeated as the example, but: Harrison Ford had dysentery while filming Raiders of the Lost Ark, so he asked if he could just shoot the swordsman instead of doing the planned elaborate fight choreography. Spielberg thought it was hilarious and said yes.

I'm starting to think if I say "ICE has not left Minnesota" (which of course is true!) I should also say "ICE has not left Chicago" and "ICE has not left LA" because I think the point is that ICE wants to occupy a lot of places at this scale so that it just becomes reality, it's not just Minnesota.

All American billionaires combined hold about $6.22 trillion in wealth. The federal government spent $7 trillion in 2024. We should eliminate billionaires; we should not delude ourselves into thinking that doing so will permit lower taxes on everyone else.

With the announcement that the ICE surge in MN is ending, I’m thinking about how so many people thought the child in Bad Bunny’s halftime performance was Liam Ramos and how our need for Hollywood endings and satisfying payoffs might hinder us from dealing with the painful and traumatic aftermath.

Every photo from Minneapolis looks like this. Cops decked out with guns and full tac gear facing off against people in bathrobes, parkas, and sweatpants armed only with whistles and cell phones. Yet every verified MAGA chode on X dutifully calls it a riot or violent insurrection.

There is a reason SPPD and every even reasonably sensible law enforcement agency prohibits chases/pursuits in urban areas. They are shown to be far too risky and almost always cause more damage than they're worth. One of the *MANY* guidelines and norms the feds are breaking on a daily basis.

This is how Tom Homan reacts to losing a court case to free a medically fragile 5-year-old who was used as bait to lure his dad so they could be imprisoned in a measles factory. Fuck any de-escalation stories that come out.

The fact that both are quite experienced—8 years and 12 years with CBP—is yet more evidence that CBP should be abolished and all of its agents fired. There's no way to "reform" or "retrain" that, it's just a violent gang with badges.

The majority of organizing happening in Minnesota isn’t just peaceful, it’s INVISIBLE. Moms showing up who won’t be interviewed on TV, people whose ICE patrols don’t turn into viral video. The grocery runs, the donations, the people filming bc they happen to be there. Please remember this.

There's a prison revolt at a concentration camp in Texas in solidarity with Minneapolis:
21 minutes ago

Jazmine Ulloa

Hundreds of immigrant mothers and children detained at a South Texas facility on Saturday protested the killing of a 37-year-old man in Minneapolis, chanting "Let me out" and "Libertad," or "Liberty," according to an immigration lawyer who witnessed the demonstration.

Eric Lee, the lawyer, said he had been waiting for his client in the visitation area of the family detention center in Dilley, Tex., when detention officials abruptly asked him to leave. Once outside, he peered through a chain-link fence and saw hundreds of women and children walking out of the facility and chanting in protest.

Lee said his client later told him on the phone that he and other detainees were outraged over the latest killing in Minneapolis and the detention of Liam Conejo Ramos, the 5-year-old boy from Ecuador detained with his father in Minneapolis and sent to Texas.
