Dropkick Murphys finish up their set at a benefit show across from Alex Pretti Memorial: “We’ll never forget what we saw with our own eyes, we’ll never forget what we’ve seen here today. thank we’ve seen here today. Thank you all for allowing us to come bear witness with you, thank you Minnesota!”.

Not sure why it lives on some random free streaming app and not MLB network or MLB TV but it’s there and it’s free so I’m not complaining

Maybe a stupid question that I already know the answer to, but: These guys are fully civilians, right? Like they don't have any of the bullshit "protections" that an ICE officer would have?

Are these "bounty hunters" ICE subcontractors or something? I don't really understand the MPD and sheriff's department handwringing here.

11 a.m. World Baseball Classic matchup between Venezuela and the Netherlands streaming on Tubi as God intended, real sicko shit.

Yeah man liberals LOVED the Iraq war because of how WOKE it was

Rosemount, Minnesota - Wikipedia

FWIW that area of the southeast metro was more heavily Irish-settled (Rosemount, Savage, Eagan, Burnsville, etc.) compared to some other suburbs that have more of the Scandinavian/German histories. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosemou...

LOL Maggi and I were just discussing this, utterly incoherent branding

This is a move many of us have organized for. Trump's DHS has killed two Minnesotans, terrorized our immigrant communities, detained citizens, and traumatized our children.

But make no mistake - changing the head of this agency will not change the direction of his mass deportation agenda.

Maybe this is a question a political reporter can answer but I wonder if its possible for the Democrats to demand all the concessions they want in exchange for confirmation?

Adios motherfucker

Maybe there are a handful of people on Bluesky who are truly "coastal elites" and have never lived outside a major East or West Coast city and have never met a conservative IRL but I guarantee you those people are a tiny minority (and most of them TBH probably aren't actually "left wing"!)

Yeah, my experience is that people who tell us to "get out of our echo chamber" just want to yell at leftists, I attended Hillsdale College, I FOR SURE don't need to know what conservatives think about anything, I got it every day for four years in the late 2000s and see it every day on Facebook!

Have you seen the Tech one?

What a slap in the face to the humble residents of Gentry, Minnesota, a totally real place that you can for sure find on a map.

This tracks (sorry for the Walter Hudson jump scare)

Dad's dad was a career Marine who died in Vietnam; Mom's dad sold insurance, went to WWII, then came home, sold more insurance and was on the Council Bluffs city council in the 1950s. I'd just like to point out he's in the middle in this picture and is somehow 34 years old.

Screenshot of Australian baseball team’s Wikipedia page describing them as being nicknamed the “Southern Thunder.”

The “Southern Thunder” sounds like defunct minor league hockey franchise that would be right at home in the SPHL playing against the likes of the Macon Whoopee.

What athlete's expression will stay with you for the rest of your life?

No question from me.

I don't love them calling Shakopee "small-town Minnesota" in the headline (we are a city, dammit, in a metropolitan area!) but this is a minor nitpick, great story!

Looking great sir

Huh weird I wonder what happened.

Make-A-Wish-ass presidential administration

Look I know Noem simply lies for fun but this is maybe the most high profile ICE shooting aside from Good and Pretti there is simply no way she is "not familiar" with the details, I wish these guys would be a little more combative in calling her out on this bullshit.

Realignment conference from Hell

We've renamed the DOD the Department of War. Our troops are Warfighters. No of course we're not "at war" you dumb lib
