Facebook post by Nekima Levy Armstrong: "Friends, A Breaking News headline just appeared in the Star Tribune, claiming that the national Target boycott ended today. This is false. The writer of the story, Carson Hartzog, is fully aware that the Target boycott was launched in Minneapolis on February 1, 2025. I have spoken to her several times since then, yet she failed to reach out to me, Jaylani Hussein, or Monique Cullars Doty, the three founders of the national Target boycott for the story. Carson even used the photo from our press conference that includes my daughter, Assata Joy and Ms. Rosemary Nevils, an elder in our community, to try to add legitimacy to a bogus story. I am once again disgusted by the Star Tribune and their attempts to minimize and erase the voices of our community. The nationwide Target Boycott is not over, unless and until Target reverses its decision to rollback Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, as we said from the beginning. “Pastor” Jamal Bryant does not speak for us or our community and has zero authority to end the nationwide boycott of Target, a company that is headquartered in Minneapolis. Please don’t believe the hype and these attempts to rescue Target from the effects of capitulating to the Trump Administration. Target rolled back DEI because of Donald Trump. They donated $1 million to the Trump/Vance inauguration committee. Target also allowed ICE to stage in its parking lots during Operation Metro Surge. The nationwide boycott of Target is successful and it will continue. Please continue to shop elsewhere."
Nekima on the Target boycott.
Please listen to Minneapolis before you go back to that store
Thank you as well as other council members and others for everything you have done and continue to do for the people of Mpls.
As someone who spent every day trying to protect my community from ICE, to the point where I was personally assaulted, I’m so disappointed Mayor Frey vetoed this bare-minimum policy that would show that he could move beyond cuss words & take real action to provide material support for our neighbors.
History will look back on the leaders of Minneapolis and what they did to stand up for our residents during and after Trump’s invasion of our city.
this was just like the centrists losing majority on the city council in 2023 with scott graham and luther ranheim's defeats to katie cashman and aurin chowdhury, and becka thompson talking about reducing the amount of council seats and adding at-large seats too
Republicans, who like to pretend they follow Jesus, are mocking a Democrat who does.
I used to work for the government. In order to justify budgets, bad actors overspend at the end of the fiscal year. So the administration spent $93B on bullshit to justify massive Pentagon budget proposals, all while gutting health care and food assistance. www.the-independent.com/news/world/a...
YES OR NO: Would you vote to authorize further arms funding for Israel?
Didn't Chubb insure Trump's E Jean Carroll bond back in the day?
Growing up, we never locked our front door.
That open door meant a kind of community and conversation we could use a *lot* more of in our politics.
I'm launching a @Substack as a way of keeping that door open – in this campaign and beyond. Subscribe!
Unemployment is up, wages aren’t keeping pace, and CEOs and big corporations are raking in more than ever.
The way we fight back is through a strong, organized labor movement.
At a meet and greet at Delta Manor in Detroit, a resident asked me about the future of the city’s transit system.
Detroiters – and all Michiganders – a REAL transit system to give you REAL choices in ways to get around. And we need a US Senator who will advocate for exactly that.
Trump starts wars.
Trump bans Chinese drones.
Trump’s family drone company chases Pentagon contracts.
Bombs fall. Taxpayer money flows. The Trump family profits.
War profiteering in plain sight — the most corrupt administration in U.S. history. 💰💣 #TrumpWatch #StandUp www.wsj.com/politics/nat...

“Multifamily housing is for young renters and the poor while single family homes are for established adults with children” is a really pernicious folk theory about how housing markets should work that I think is foundational to so much bad housing policy at all levels of government.
Mojtaba Khamenei's appointment as Supreme Leader underscores the rise of hardline factions and the IRGC in Iran amid an existential war for the Islamic Republic. Here's why 🔗 www.newarab.com/analysis/ris...
"Trump is basically inviting Iranian partisans to attack America with the ferocity and style of 9/11, hoping it’ll provoke a “rally around the president” moment"

I call bullshit on the excuse. Most of the top members of the regime have moved onto military bases, and I'm certain they're not planning on leaving. It's to protect themselves once they refuse to relinquish power. www.rawstory.com/pam-bondi-26...
Yesterday, a lot of folks clocked this as market manipulation by screenshot and backspace.
Looks like someone in the White House made billions.
You may be the least self-aware idiot in the world if you are gloating about someone being in the Epstein Files when you are in those same files *thousands* of times more often.
Reuters News flash noting that Iran will not be able to participate in the World Cup after U.S. airstrikes.
Iran won’t be permitted to compete in the World Cup, but the two countries that attacked them unprovoked will be. That’s just so 2026! 🤷♂️
Some citizens never had a citizenship certificate in the first place. If your parents were already U.S. citizens when you immigrated, or if you were adopted by U.S. citizens, you often became a citizen automatically. Many people only ever received a U.S. passport. #Pink #Momsky 🧵
So…
The UCP is moving procurement, which is the core of the “corrupt care” scandal into…
The premiers office.
Cool.
What could possibly go wrong?

Wesley powers, and maybe veteran who served in combat was sprayed with chemical agents, brutalized and then detained in overcrowded & horrific conditions and denied his rights.
If this can happen to him, it can happen to any of us!

Not great when the only people in the free world who believe and trust Vladimir Putin’s word on critical things despite all evidence to the contrary are currently running the government of the United States.
A group of us in the Senate are demanding public hearings on Trump's disastrous war with Iran with Secretary Hegseth and Rubio. And we've introduced a half dozen war powers resolutions to force the Senate to vote every day on the war if the hearings don't happen.
Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni is increasingly distancing herself from the U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran. (POLITICO)
Aw. Pete banned photogs who didn’t make him look pretty enough. Apparently being pretty is a very big part of the warrior ethos. Especially in the middle of the war. When you’re focused on the really big things like how the SecDef looks. #SecretaryofVanity
