Davis Moturi email to city council, read aloud by CM Wonsley Wednesday. Sees similarity between his case & Mariah Samuels: "A black person in fear for their lives, and a department who can't be bothered to forward a case for consideration of charges in our time of greatest need."

Incidentally, it should be said that @MayorFrey did this interview and photo op in the coffee shop at George Floyd Square without permission or even asking the owner or the workers in the shop. That is just the type of opportunist he is. He didn’t even purchase a coffee.

#DontRankFrey
folks: What was it that first made you skeptical of or opposed to Jacob Frey (either as a CM or as Mayor)? And/or, if you were explaining to someone why you don't support him, what specific actions/statements of his would you bring up?

Lots of shenanigans at conventions. Cries of hypocrisy and unfairness from both sides. But booting all those delegates was legitimately outrageous. Identifying people who don't like your candidate and picking them off, among them an elected Park Commissioner, Becky Alper. And Team Frey still lost.

Important to note Robin Wonsley is doing what predecessor Cam Gordon did for many years in Ward 2, winning as a Green with DFLers supporting him.

Frey employed the oldest Republican trick in the book - appoint political flunkies and incompetence in positions that you don’t really care about anyway. watch them flounder and crash the program, his core constituents who never want anything to change can say “see I told you that wouldn’t work”

"An adult diversion program sounds like a pretty appropriate response to vandalizing six automobiles. (Which is not “political violence.”)". Look, a grown-up with a grown-up response about how we respond to vandalism; thank you,

How might we promote our projects, events, campaigns, art, values, etc *beyond* social media? There's no one magic key, but some friends and I did some brainstorming and skill-sharing. Hope it can useful to artists, musicians, organizers, small business owners, and beyond:

Here's how Mayor Frey's rich friends at "All of Mpls" will attempt to confuse you about encampments in an election year. They tell you the city council is trying to legalize encampments. First: that's not true. But they want the focus to be on making sure it's illegal.

Hey friends - we have been running out of tents, sleeping bags, and tarps every single week and it's getting colder. We know of at least one camp getting evicted this week. If you can help, $ goes farthest but you can also bring winter clothes and secondhand tents to any of our drop spots!
