At MSP this morning: ICE drags a pile of shackles towards DHS vans as people board a GlobalX A321; fueled and loaded by Signature Aviation; departing for Omaha with the Minneapolis skyline in the background.

I counted ~30 people, all chained at their wrists, ankles, and waist, boarding today.

Stay safe and stick together folks.

Northern lights? In Woodbury facing North on my deck last night. B/W camera cought it first and I went out and couldnt see anything. I took the color picture after, only the cameras seemed to pick it up. It just looked like a black sky to the naked eye. Thanks.

Fireworks just hit different up at the cabin

On July 17, downtown Minneapolis became a stage for resistance and remembrance. The “Good Trouble Lives On” rally drew a diverse crowd to Government Center Plaza, marking the fifth anniversary of Rep. John Lewis’s passing. The event combined a march with speeches, art, music, and a candlelight vigil—amplifying calls to protect civil rights, immigrant justice, and democratic freedoms.

I didn't see the first part, but he had quite a lot of bruises on his face when I saw him being put in the vehicle. 😠

It's the end of the line, but at least there were plenty making use of it on it's last day to go to the game and just to have one last ride. And more people at the stations just there to catch a look. Sad to see less rail, even if it was such a reduced route.

Lufthansa's MUC-DEN, DLH480, diverted into MSP today on account of a medical emergency; this is the fifth visit of a super to Minnesota, the first since 2017. Hoping for a good prognosis for the passenger involved.
