Every stitch tells a story of love, community, and remembrance. Volunteers across MN created the "Stolen Neighbors Quilt" with 11,000 squares to honor Minnesotans detained by ICE. Each fabric square represents a neighbor, a family member, and a life impacted by deportation. We stand for Justice!

We had to goodbye to sweet Hazel-face a few minutes ago. They came to the house so she was with with her pack and favorite people, surrounded by love & given her fave foods. She lived a very long (12.5 years) and good life, but it sucks. She is so very loved. My Mrs. Big Stuff, my Hazelnut Truffle

Clarence Thomas says the 14th Amendment should be read narrowly because it was written for formerly enslaved people. By that logic, the 2nd Amendment was written for muskets, not AR-15s. Funny how that kind of originalism only shows up when it's convenient.

Former federal judge John Jones on Slush fund: This lawsuit essentially—there was no report of a settlement. It was just a discontinuance of the suit, and then comes the settlement thereafter. In my experience—you don’t do that unless you’re trying to keep something from the presiding judge.
