CONCLUSION There is a very, very high chance that your first choice on your park board at-large ballot will be the ONLY THING THAT COUNTS. It's really not that common for your second and third choices to matter. So think hard about your first choice! 9/9

Sam didn’t chair a convention through a riot to see you give up on your chance to vote

IF YOURE IN LINE STAY IN LINE

Hey friends! Quick ask! I’m looking for folks who can help team Fateh with taking pictures of results at precincts once they’re available a bit after 8pm. If you’re interested, reply or DM me and I can get you more details! Thanks so much!

B: Happy ringleader day to us all, but especially Samuel! Me: Everyone check for rings under your pillow!

There are more reasons Minneapolis needs a new mayor, but lying about police reforms, acting in ways that undermine trust in police reforms, and an inability to partner with other elected officials to promote and deliver on our city’s needs make it clear we need a new mayor.

We’re getting close to election day in Minneapolis, and I’ve figured out who I plan to vote for. I endorse Dr. DeWayne Davis and Sen. Omar Fateh. I also plan to rank Jazz Hampton.

It seems like suddenly half of Twin Cities freeway signage is peeling or faded. I've never noticed this before, maybe an occasional old sign. Am I imagining things? Is this like an elephant moving through a snake. Like, a ton of them were installed at the same time, so they all go bad at once?

I’m so excited to announce that Spiced Up Civics has just dropped our first interview with the mayoral contenders! Check out the interview on our YouTube to learn more about @dewayneforminneapolis.com as he eats locally sourced hot wings! youtu.be/1B14DYswEYY

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy: www.citizensinformation.ie/en/employmen...

My 2025 new year resolution/goal was to see more live music. I started with buying concert tickets for bigger artists I really like. Then the social media algorithms started working for me. Now I see ads for upcoming local music events and bands I don't know yet but might like.

MN DFL doing everything they can to ensure red minnesota in 2026 because they hate DSA so much. seems bad to me but what do i know

JFC. The state party is running for the right. They are so terrified of anything connected to the word socialist that they will shut down the vote engine for the state. Good luck filling state wide offices with Democrats if you destroy the Minneapolis DFL. Unbelievable.

What Rick Kupchella, the StarTribune (owned by billionaire Glenn Taylor), Hubbard, and, seemingly the DFL executive committee, agree on is that Minneapolis is an eye sore. It has too much power and is an ongoing pain in the ass. They’re othering the state‘s largest city just like the White house.

Last thing: based on his testimony at the meeting tonight, John Maraist seems like the real deal, and I'm so glad we have him chairing the city party. 5/5

The indictment of James Comey has no place in a democracy. But that doesn't matter—because the United States is a republic.

Good news: I've completed every item on my task list for today. Bad news: I still haven't started half the items on yesterday's list.

Attorneys for certain actors in Ward 2 went to court over the date of the convention. Among other things, they argued that the convention should be held when students are out of town, since students don’t really live there. Turns out John Wall didn’t really live there.

To be clear, I should’ve been on the credentials committee challenging Wall’s credentials for living in Wayzata, not Ward 2, instead of him challenging me for indicating support for Robin Wonsley.

But I’m an extremist because I think we should be nice to people, even if they were born somewhere else

Talking about "doing the work" is not doing any work.

jason would donate to your gofundme—there's no doubt in my mind. let's help them out during a scary and uncertain time.

This is the biggest attack on free speech since the McCarthy era but it also has significantly less popular consensus behind it than the second Red Scare. It's being done on behalf of a minority faction led by the most unpopular president in modern history. Organizing against this can win.

If the only thing you can call people to do in response to the current moment is a rally a month away or signing an online petition - you need to broaden your horizons and get in community with more people doing more work at different scales and levels. A couple quick and easy ideas below ⬇️

If any political group is willing to sacrifice LGBTQIA folks to get ahead they will sacrifice anyone, and I will not support them.

I am STRONGLY of the opinion this year that people should pick their favorite ASAP and get out there and volunteer/donate/put up a yard sign.

Before he was a Senator, a candidate for President, and our greatest champion in the fight against oligarchy, Bernie Sanders was the four-term Mayor of Burlington, VT. I sat down with Bernie in Astoria to talk about the lessons he learned—and the work ahead.

I love and support my transgender and Somali-American friends and neighbors. If you wanna go after then, you're gonna have to go through me.

There was a meeting for the SD62 DFL tonight! Congrats to @dexanderson.com on being elected O&I Officer, and congrats to Dex and @meghscase.bsky.social for being elected SCC Alternates! Also, we're looking forward to our fall picnic on October 4! RSVP here: mobilize.us/s/vjmPgG

They made their voices heard via available and supposedly acceptable methods, with a clear goal of influencing the platform, again, like we’ve been told we are supposed to, and they’ve been shit on for a year for being right.

What if I threw away the REMAINS of your CHILD - would it mess your life up?

The Mayor has failed to implement the Emergency Housing Vouchers program meant to provide housing and wraparound services for 50 individuals/ 50 families experiencing chronic unsheltered homelessness. He even proposed cutting the program entirely next year. It could have helped. 💔

If you are trying to find an easy and impactful action to take in this current moment: send a thank you note to a someone who is doing work that is important to you. They are legitimately appreciated and sustaining in challenging times.

🏳️‍⚧️ Letter update! 🏳️‍⚧️ We just emailed the letter and additional evidence to @dfl.org Chair Richard Carlbom. A few folks have a meeting with him this afternoon to share their experiences & request accountability in person. We currently have 1,285 total signatures! 🎉💜 1/4

This may explain why there’s an aggressive response to people who merely post Kirk’s own words. It threatens the existence of the alternate Kirk - the motivational speaker that had been marketed to young kids and white Christian groups through selective quotation & clips.

Members of the feminist caucus who were misgendering people in the meeting likely did so because they know their friends are the ones who run the code of conduct committee so they can do whatever they want without repercussions. One more reason that committee needs to be disbanded.

Reminds me when I saw Martha Dimick’s name pop up among the Feminist Caucus misgendering faction that she once referred to us new Senior Caucus members as “infiltrators.” It’s all about keeping the party clubs small. We eventually won leadership and increased the tent size.

We broke 1,000 signatures!! 🎉😭 You all are amazing!! We especially want to thank the elected officials and candidates who have signed on. We know this is a political risk for you and it means so much. If you want to join this list of impressive folks, you have until end of day today! 😊

y'all this is at 850. I'm confident we can get to 1000 before Monday (when I will be bringing it to the state chair).

People really do not understand the level of manipulation going on right now and how much of that is trying to amplify and push towards open kinetic conflict both in the United States and across Europe right now.

We can get to 1000. Please continue to share this to show the DFL that we mean MN is a trans refuge state.
