Much as Soviet propaganda accurately depicted the United States as a racially tiered society, Iranian propaganda has accurately depicted the Trump administration as entirely run by pedophiles.

Second panel, text reads: "140 wounded, confirmed by Pentagon."

Third panel, text reads: "7 Americans dead. Trump: "That's the way it is."

The cost of Trump's war on Iran.

Dear Central Avenue Reconstruction Decision Makers,
We are writing to express the overwhelming desire of our community for an "Art Walk" along Central Avenue NE in Minneapolis. As many community members have shared, this has long been a vision that could finally come to fruition through the Central Avenue reconstruction project.
The Northeast Minneapolis Arts District has been consistently named the top arts district in the nation due to the concentration of world-renowned local artists and visionaries in our neighborhood. An Art Walk along the main cultural corridor in Northeast would reflect our community's pride and identity as a vibrant, arts-driven destination.
We understand that the project team is working to develop a corridor-wide Visual Quality Advisory Committee to facilitate aesthetic recommendations from interested individuals. While this is an excellent opportunity to allow for community input, we believe there is an opportunity for more robust discussions on how to solidify desires for widened pedestrian space and art pads at major intersections.
The outpouring of support for the Art Walk provides an exciting opportunity for MnDOT and other partners to develop another destination point for our neighborhood and reflect the deep arts culture that is so widely celebrated. Not only would it provide aesthetic and cultural benefits, but it would also support traffic calming and mode-shift goals that contribute to the safety and the livability of our city.
We look forward to your response and thank you for your continued work on this project. We are both committed to do the work with you to make this happen.
Best

Last week Council Member Rainville and I sent a letter to MNDOT expressing our support for incorporating an β€œArt Walk” in the reconstruction of Central Ave. We have the #1 arts district in the country and this is a once in a lifetime opportunity to forever incorporate it on Central Ave.

From a practical perspective, it is better if you don’t. With a larger group, the process takes much longer. Better to have multiple smaller groups. My queer group took about five minutes.

Minnesota lawmaker Katie Jones rode in a cargo e-bike to the hospital for her baby's birth. Her husband, Peter Schmitt, pedaled the two miles there.

On the return journey, their son Hans – all 8 pounds and 1 ounce of him – was bundled up and handled it just fine, Jones said.

My favorite fictional author is Hemingway, so some of the human authors were hard to follow and appeared at first reading to maybe be internally inconsistent. AI writing is mid, and is literally paraphrasing human authors.

My guess is single stair is popular in buildings with only stairs and no elevators. If you need elevators, hallways return on that steep investment.

There is a major difference between the writing style of a case officer whose writing before becoming a historian was never for public consumption and a newspaper reporter that has to produce copy. One book I loved every phrase. New book is tediously detailed on everyday aspects that don’t matter.

The courage shown on the Edmund Pettus Bridge on Bloody Sunday 61 years ago led to the passage of the Voting Rights Act. Now, those protections are under threat by Trump and the GOP.

The same fight to protect the right to vote lives on in Selma and across the country.

Humanitarian crisis, environmental catastrophe.
One man is to blame and we have a moral imperative to remove him from office and ensure he and his collaborators see justice.
