this is absolutely wild. where does roberts think these agencies come from?!? who invested them with authority to act? whose mandate are they designed to execute? the president is the chief EXECUTive. his job is executing the will of Congress as it spells out in its duly-passed laws!
Aubrey Gilleran@aubreygilleran.bsky.social · last mo.Yes, Congress should be able to do these things. A court this contemptuous of Congress deserves to be packed by Congress, not only to correct these disastrous precedents but also because Congress needs to show both Article II and Article III who’s boss.
Enjoy this article from a Minnesota newspaper in 1882 noting that Scandinavians love their home countries so much that it will take them generations to assimilate into America. www.loc.gov/resource/sn8...
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · last mo.Tom Emmer: "Minnesotans are so afraid that you're gonna call us a racist, you're gonna call us an Islamophobe. You know what? I'm done being even the least bit careful. Somalis don't assimilate. And if they don't assimilate, then they should go the hell back to where they came from."
Observing ICE is legal & a constitutionally protected activity. Be smart, but stay grounded in the face of intimidation and efforts by the state to derail our work and convince us otherwise. National Lawyers Guild hotline: 612-444-2654
When I was a kid in the 90s and I heard people talking about drone warfare I didn't really envision this type of combat. Fucking wild man.
TW@twesq.bsky.social · 3mo agoAbsolutely bonkers footage of Ukrainian soldiers shooting down Russian drones in prop planes with shotguns. Not ai, came from an official Ukrainian account and verified by the WSJ.
I'm glad the dog that played Wishbone died before 9/11, I wouldn't want them to see what we as a nation have become.

America, land of the free and private property rights, except the government will pass laws banning you from line drying your clothes on your own property (not the first ordinance of this form I've seen)
Reminder that MNDoT is giving Grant/ Lake Elmo a $50M interchange at this section of Hwy 36 where 5k cars crossing at Lake Elmo Ave with no zoning reforms while the metro governments squabble for $93M for transit, roads, and bridges and face a $40M cut to transit funding.
Bill Lindeke@blindeke.bsky.social · 4mo agoGreat idea to cut transit funding right at the outbreak of a prolonged oil shortage. Minnesota lawmakers should do precisely the opposite of what Walz is proposing. streets.mn/2026/04/07/t...
Reminder that MNDoT is giving Baxter a $58M corridors for commerce subsidy for an interchange Hwy 371/210 so people can get to Fleet Farm 20 seconds faster while the metro governments squabbled for $93M for transit, roads, and bridges and face a $40M cut to transit funding.

Horrible... just fucking horrible.

Anyone need a Skylab mockup? Like... one that the NASA astronauts trained on? www.facebook.com/marketplace/...
Things are crazy and bleak a lot right now but at the end of the day we are just some hairless apes with smart big brains and the fact that we can figure out a way to shoot a tin can full of big brain apes around the big rock in the sky is pretty neat.
Chanda Prescod-Weinstein 🌌@chanda.blacksky.app · 4mo agoIf all goes according to plan, in a few hours, a crew of astronauts will begin a journey that will take them on a loop around the moon. Here's a video that NASA put together to help people visualize the journey through space, first orbiting the earth before looping around the moon and flying home 🔭

Wow, I'm at a loss for words... what the fuck man.
Adam Schwarz@adamjschwarz.bsky.social · 5mo agoReporter: Why didn't you notify Japan that you were going to attack Iran? Trump next to the Japanese PM: "Who knows better about surprise than Japan? Why didn't you tell me about Pearl Habour? You believe in surprise I think much more so than us."
Please read this article to the end. Even before ICE got involved, this started because this *blind man who speaks no English and uses a curtain rod as a walking stick* got lost on a walk and some Karen called the police on him and they tasered and beat him bc he didn’t drop the rod. WTF
Will Bunch@willbunch.bsky.social · 5mo agoHere's a story about his death www.investigativepost.org/2026/02/25/b...
“A federal agent fired shots through the driver’s side window”. Sound familiar? That’s exactly how Renee Nicole Good was killed. This 23 year old lost his life and ICE’s involvement was covered up for a year. They’re killing people and hiding the evidence.
Third American death linked to ice uncovered by Newsweek
While the 23-year-old's death was reported in March 2025, it was not made clear that a federal agent fired the fatal shot.

This mass torture scheme—and that's what journalists should call it, as cruelty and terror, not deportation, is clearly its point—was devised by Trump, Stephen Miller, Corey Lewandowski, Kristi Noem and Russ Vought to punish non-whites, who they *hate*. It's straight-up fascism.
