I’m sharing this All of Mpls email because I hope everyone (including journalists - especially you) will contrast Frey supporters’ rhetoric (and ex-Frey staffer Jacob Hill here) with the sincere testimony of Maddie Love. This kind of shitty, cynical game-playing is a reason a lot of us oppose Frey.

Ethically, Andy Brehm should tell readers he’s a Jacob Frey donor. Journalistically, Star Tribune editors must. www.startribune.com/dsa-public-s...

If the guy who writes my favorite Frey PAC email blasts was at the mic calling for a quorum check as the Frey campaign is texting supporters to leave the convention, am I obligated to play dumb about it?

I’m excited to endorse my friend and colleague Omar Fateh to be our next Mayor. There are many reasons in this moment, but one stands out. Corporate power is on the march in our economy and our democracy. We need people at every level to fight like our lives depend on it. 🧵

There is no more principled, strategic, caring, grounded leader at the Legislature than @paulcumings.bsky.social District 53 will be so so lucky to have him. Stay tuned for more. #mnleg

Immediate reactions. Short version: Mitra has helped usher in a new era of progressive leaders in St Paul & Ramsey County. Both the work she accomplished as an elected official & the model she was as a progressive candidate and person has been immensely valuable for our community. 1/

The Emergency Warming Center at the Minnesota Indian Women's Resource Center (MIWRC) is extending its services through tomorrow (Wednesday) at noon. You can contribute at www.miwrc.org/donate - noting your gift is for the emergency warming shelter. Or drop off contributions at 2300 15th Ave S.

For our trans fam: The MN House has been seized by the GOP without the majority or authority to do so. But this DOES NOT MEAN our work to protect trans healthcare or trans refuge will be undone. Tim Walz is still our Governor. Dems will control the Senate. This is STILL a trans refuge state.

It was great meeting with Unidos MN today to discuss the work of protecting our neighbors from the threats of the incoming Trump administration. Only standing together can we support our communities and I’m glad to be in this work with Rep. @aishagomez.bsky.social and organizations like Unidos MN.

It’s going to be cold the next two days and shelters are full! Please support this effort as able.
