- Reposted by Elliot WilsonI know 3k agents qualified as the largest number deployed anywhere in the US... But I thought that was true of 1.5k when we hit that, & there's still >2k free to terrorize us. Plus, that only factors MN. Those ~700 still have jobs & will be sent SOMEwhere to occupy The People, which still isn't ok.
- Added Ellison to my calling list today to make sure he does something about the BOA thing, cause that's some hot garbage that we can't let stand
- I listen to indie and folk, so the list of potential options is quite long, but here’s a fun one I recently heard and loved Okay I Believe You, But My Tommy Gun Don’t by Brand New

- Fuck, I am gonna get shot for finger gunning some ICE twerp, aren’t I?
- Reposted by Elliot WilsonIt would be great if people would've used graphic content warnings & shit when posting a high contrast edge lord's depiction a horrific murder of a known & loved community member. But, hey, gotta make sure we all see precisely the syntax & aesthetic of evil that's out there—ideally repeatedly.

- Reposted by Elliot WilsonThis 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.
- Reposted by Elliot WilsonYesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning. Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

- Anyone remember the card game Guillotine? From WotC? They should reprint that with a special edition. Would do gang busters on Kickstarter I bet.
- Special election full results! I don't know if we could have predicted this wide of a margin. Kaohly Her won this seat in '24 with a D +66.6% result. In the same election, Harris won this district at D +70.9%. This win is D +90.9%, an at least 20% improvement
- Reposted by Elliot WilsonI’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work. I don’t let bullies win. Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.
- Okay, first of all, “battle tested progressive” is the most ridiculous claim I’ve ever heard for someone who voted for Laken Riley But, also, that quote is misleading as hell, cause it’s actually from an opinion columnist, while this sure makes it look like an endorsement from the whole paper

- I will not fed post Fed posting is the mind killer It is the little death that brings total obliteration I will face the urge to fed post I will let it pass over and through me Will it has passed, I will turn my inner eye to its path Where the urge has gone, there will be nothing Only I will remain
- Reposted by Elliot WilsonVoting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum. Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum. Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum. ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.

He had such a great attitude. We’d chat between patients about trying to get in a mountain bike ride together. Will never happen now
- Reposted by Elliot WilsonAlex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him. White. Hot. Rage.

- The feds have arrested Nekima Levy Armstrong, who led the protest in a Minnesota church over the weekend. apnews.com/article/just...
- "What people are doing here is beautiful. It's a tragic beauty, but a real one." Look, we are going to win, and we will win so hard that ICE will be something you only know about cause of a history book, but when we are done winning, I'm going to cry for a very long time. But we are going to win.

- Reposted by Elliot WilsonSo on this fundraising campaign the DFL launched yesterday and is receiving critiques for today, I want to say a couple of things. 1. I work in fundraising and Simon is creating a PR crisis. That should be simple enough to understand. And 2. The delineation of funds needs to be clarified.

- It’s so fucking infantilizing to be told over and over about ignoring bait, like we’re all chomping at the bit for a fight or something What I wouldn’t give for just a single elected to have our back instead of this shit that implies we are some unruly mob in need of constant checking
- I feel like Walz and Frey really need more nerds on their staff, people who can roleplay, cause their refusal to do anything suggests the only scenario planning here included use of force against federal agents, and that is just the most uncreative and lazy use of MPD and the NG
- Reposted by Elliot WilsonThanks to some incredible Twin Cities and Chicago folks, we have a whistle party on Saturday! Come out if you live in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area. We’ll be folding zines and putting them together with whistles that have been donated for free speech and community safety. Take some to distribute!

- I get the sense that not a lot of folks lived through or remember his first term - it wasn’t great! Two years of platitudes and dreams, which led to two years of fighting with everyone and no progress That said, I’d vote for him in a heartbeat to keep Klob out of the position

- So, when Maduro walks, does that mean ICE will have to pick him up? And when they inevitably fuck that up too, will he get to just stay in the US?
- Good, now everyone can shut up about an easy mode for Dark Souls
- I tripped in the garage and broke my shoulder. 'But Elliot' I hear you say 'What's so ridiculous about that? Sounds pretty normal to me.' Friends, I did not break my shoulder because I fell on it. I broke it cause I grabbed a table on the way down and my arm forced its way up through my shoulder.
