Today on Valentine's Day in Minneapolis a banner with a broken heart reading "done with your lies" hangs over I-94 just outside the Lowry Hill Tunnel. They say the tunnel is one of the busiest in the world with 175,000 cars passing through it each day...that's a lot of cars.
💥MINNEAPOLIS! Get your VOTE on!📮 As an early supporter of @SheilaFTP, had to vote early, but tomorrow is Election Day! Polls are open 7am-8pm.
Jacob Frey has done nothing since the murder of George Floyd but curb progress. VOTE NO-YES-YES on charter amendments. #DontRankFrey
People from around the country should be watching Minneapolis and seeing how the system strikes back when people rise up.
22,000 people signed a petition to get a ballot measure in that place actually change our police department. A judge chose today to keep it off the ballot.
In case you hadn't seen it here on twitter, 19y/o James Stanback was killed by a forklift while working at Menards in Golden Valley today.

I wanted to take a minute to talk about the "American Rescue Plan" (ARP) money that's coming into Minneapolis. This is federal money that went to the mayor to decide how it will be spent.
This Friday (7/2) the council can change and vote on his proposal.
I kicked a car for trying to run over my comrades during protest & had to pay $8000 in restitution & was faced 4 years in prison. These milk crickets stormed THE CAPITOL with a confederate flag & a plan to kill the Vice President & the first case is probation & a $500 fine. 🤢
The Revel luxury apartments residents’ are laughing at protestors who are crying because their friends keep getting killed.
Richer ppl are LAUGHING at poorer ppl because they’re sad their friends are dead, when those friends were murdered on the block where the rich ppl LIVE.
wait what? @MayorFrey just said makeshift barriers around the memorial for Winston Smith/Deona Marie puts people at risk of getting hurt because of car traffic, this is the dude that just opened up the George Floyd memorial to car traffic.
I still can’t believe that instead of acknowledging the terrorist attack that happened and the life that was lost Thursday night, the city would rather focus on removing barricades and protecting businesses. Absolutely disgusting. I hate it here.
