This is the aftermath of an ICE kidnapping a few blocks from my home in St. Paul—an hour ago. A quiet street full of broken glass and at least three wrecked cars. The target of the kidnapping was taken away by ambulance. He was on a stretcher and covered by a sheet, though a cop said he was alive.
I would love to hear from more politicians who are not "waiting anxiously for updates" and actually putting their bodies somewhere to fucking DO SOMETHING
I don’t think we should make concessions to the Masked Murderers Guild of America. I don’t think we should compromise so the Masked Murderers Guild of America stops using kidnapped kids from schools as bait. I thought this was already illegal. The Masked Murderers Guild of America should not exist.
*shooters, plural
Indeed. Senate Dems don't even need to say "abolish ICE." They can do their obnoxious "we need to investigate this, come up with reforms" or whatever.
But there is no good reason to rush to whatever compromise the GOP will accept. Dems have the advantage. Use it. Let the GOP stew in their problems.
1000%
1) Doesn’t say he was wielding it, just that he had it.
2) Doesn’t match the video anyway.
3) DHS has lied in exactly this way after shooting someone before.

One block from my old house. WHAT THE FUCK
“We have a nice little database, & now you’re considered domestic terrorists” says an ICE agent after photographing a civilian who was videotaping them. Posted today by Brian Allen on X. h/t @allenanalysis.bsky.social

Can anyone in Minneapolis guide me to whomever is on the ground making sure the kids that rely on free lunches are being fed during these two days? I'd like to send them some $.
Rage deep in my bones.
Not a hyphenate, but would have saved myself a lot of bullshit if I had.
It's in the portal?
Most of us can't even get reactive MRIs, cool cool
It's so bullshit. Put me in a room with Big Balls
Glad that they're talking about this. Now do how they merged databases and changed the legal name of everyone who had two last names (no hyphen). It's been been a really fun six months.
Glad to see at least one social network willing to hold Michael Franti accountable.
Good morning to everyone that knows that gen z only comes out to vote when they're inspired to do it
fwiw, being a court watcher is a great way to volunteer if you've got the time.
Cedric Frazier?
Did anyone catch with rep's homes that Boelter went to between the Hoffmans and Hortmans? Was one in New Hope?
This is continued journalistic malpractice from the @startribune.com normalizing a violent white male suspect. He owned a private security company called Praetorian Guard, traveled overseas to preach against abortion and LGBTQ+ people, and attended a bible college that preaches "violent prayer."
Can you please stop sharing his face, for the love of god
I was studying disinfo spread at the Bad Place and now I've got the dark passenger again
Best fucking news I've heard all day
I'm going to get ahead of some uninformed outrage. The second-degree murder charges against Vance Boelter are all that can be brought against him *right now.* Prosecutors can charge him with first-degree premeditated murder, but that requires a grand jury indictment, not just a criminal complaint.
The Minnesota assassin appears to be a hate-filled right winger. So can we stop walking on eggshells about MAGA's legitimization of political violence?
Yes, Republicans have also been the target of inexcusable violence, but this isn't a "both sides" issue.

The June 15, 2025 front page of the Star Tribune with the main headline "Unspeakable" House DFL Leader Hortman, husband assassinated. State senator, wife also shot; suspect ID'd; killer posed as cop, had list
Tomorrow's front page of the Minnesota Star Tribune
Nation, if you see pictures of people protesting in Minnesota today, know that it has turned into a vigil, and we are doing it very afraid.
