If Mexico were playing any other team…I’m married to a Brit. Still, my heart was with Mexico. What a game. Well fought, teams. 🇲🇽🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Wrapping up the 250th weekend by putting democracy into action—door knocking for a pro-democracy, pro-RCV candidate. 🧡🇺🇸

Love that Taylor is showing the world what love, joy, and community look like—and stealing the thunder from a president determined to divide us during America's 250th. Well played, TS. And congratulations! 💙🇺🇸

As our democracy turns 250, I've been thinking a lot about where we've been—and where we need to go next. Grateful to have this piece published in MinnPost today. It's about why I believe this generation has an opportunity—and a responsibility—to be bold in strengthening our democracy. Happy 4th!

It was a privilege to attend the Somali American Vision Summit yesterday and join so many leaders committed to strengthening our communities and our democracy. Wishing Minnesota’s Somali community a joyful Somali Independence Week! 🇸🇴💙

Kicking off America’s 250th the best way I know how: door knocking for democracy. 🇺🇸🚪 Our democracy is in trouble, and it won’t fix itself. That’s why I’m out with an incredible team of RCV volunteers across the state supporting pro-democracy candidates like this one! 🧡

WTG, USA! Onward. ❤️🇺🇸⚽️

Perfect timing! Just tuned into the USA match and caught that absolute beauty of a goal. 🇺🇸⚽✨

I'm saddened to learn of Representative Karen Clark's passing. Karen was deeply principled, and a true trailblazer who always marched to her own rhythm in the pursuit of justice. Minnesota is a better place because of her decades service and advocacy. She will be greatly missed. ❤️

just as jesus said, "i don't like low wage foreigners." READ the bible bsky.app/profile/atru...

The House will vote on an amendment that would block funding to Israel. It should be a no brainer: Our tax dollars should not fund a genocide. We cannot continue to be complicit in Israel’s crimes against humanity.

The way to process the yin and yang of today’s Supreme Court decisions? Celebrate the victories—and channel the outrage into action. Knock doors, elect pro-democracy, LGBTQ champions, and keep fighting for the democracy we deserve. 🚪🗳️💪🏳️‍🌈🇺🇸

Supreme Court ends term with mixed outcomes: birthright citizenship upheld, but major setbacks for trans rights and campaign finance reform. A hugely consequential term for democracy and civil rights. www.theguardian.com/us-news/live...

In more news today. Unbelievable until not... www.youtube.com/watch?v=2FdM...

Even the Supreme Court majority stopped short of shielding Trump from indictment of rape. That's significant. #releasethefiles www.bbc.com/news/article...

Is this really America 2026?!

Never too hot and humid to knock for a good pro-democracy candidate like this one. 🧡

One bright spot in an otherwise troubling day of Supreme Court decisions: the Court left intact state laws allowing mailed ballots postmarked by Election Day to be counted if they arrive later. MN is not one of those states. If you vote by mail, send your ballot early so it arrives by Election Day.

The parade and festival are on, rain or shine! See you there. 🏳️‍🌈☔️🧡

We’re all set up at 🌈 Pride and the Somali Festival! Stop by to say hello, learn more about Ranked Choice Voting, show some 🧡 for RCV, and some 💜 for our ERA allies. Democracy is stronger when everyone belongs. See you out there! 🎉 @fairvotemn.bsky.social

@holaarepa Friday 🌮💙💛

Whoa. Tom Emmer, unleashed. Today’s Supreme Court decision has stripped away any pretense. It has emboldened the ugliest impulses in our politics and further exposed the racism that continues to shape who is welcomed, protected, and valued in America.

Today's decisions send a devastating message about who this Court—and this administration—believe belongs in America. The consequences for Haitian, Syrian, and other immigrant communities are terrifying and profound. We must do everything we can to stand with and protect our immigrant communities.

🌈 It's Twin Cities Pride weekend! 🏳️‍🌈 Join @fairvotemn.bsky.social as we celebrate Pride and talk with thousands of Minnesotans about building a democracy where every voice matters. March with us in the parade or volunteer at our booth. 🧡 Sign-up ⬇️ www.facebook.com/events/10325...

In another court victory for democracy... apnews.com/article/trum...

This is very real possibility.

Another court rejects the Trump administration’s effort to build a federal voter verification system and access sensitive voter data. Elections belong to the states—not Washington.

I thought this was on Point….

Orwellian.

The DOJ's retribution campaign is failing.

Hard to believe Starmer’s rapid downfall (though not as rapid as the various Tory leaders before him) after such a massive victory for Labour just two years ago. The party needs new leadership that can bring people together and make sure Reform and Nigel Farage stay far away from No. 10.

A rainy but lovely Sunday in Chicago ☔️❤️ Opening weekend tickets for the Obama Presidential Center were sold out, but the campus is beautiful. And the best part? Getting to spend time with this kid. I don’t get to see him nearly often enough. ❤️

#reflectingpool 💙

Opening Ceremony, Day 3 at the #ObamaPresidentialCenter! 🎉💙 So much energy, joy, and inspiration all around. ✨🙌

Celebrating Father’s Day in Chicago. ❤️ Happy Father’s Day to everyone who plays a parenting role in the lives of others. Thank you for the love, guidance, support, and care you give every day. Wishing you a day filled with appreciation and joy.

Article 1, Section 9, Clause 8 would like a word.

Bummed to miss all the fun in St. Paul today—I’m off to Chicago! ✈️ But if you’re there, be sure to stop by, say hello to the team, and show some RCV love. 🧡

Happy Juneteenth! ❤️🖤💚 The FairVote Minnesota team will be celebrating at the Minnesota State Capitol this afternoon. Stop by, say hello, and join us as we honor freedom, community, and the ongoing work of building a democracy that works for everyone.

The goal of federal agents targeting and falsely accusing ICE protesters is to spread fear. Most charges are dropped, but the damage is done—people are traumatized, injured, and intimidated. They're using the same tactics again. We will continue to resist and protect our neighbors.

WOW! What a day in Hopkins! 🎉 More than double the number of signatures required were submitted to the City Clerk to give voters the opportunity to vote on Ranked Choice Voting this November. This is what community leadership looks like—a city ready to strengthen democracy.

Nothing better than coming home after a long day and being greeted by the music of Kingfield PorchFest on my block. ❤️ So grateful for this community.

Unbelievable.

Should be reposted every month....Speak Truth....

He launched an illegal war that destabilized the global economy, disrupted the international order, cost thousands of lives, and weakened America's standing in the world. And for what? With this reckless adventure lost, we should be concerned about him doubling down on his attacks here at home.

Mamdani: "Solidarity with a government that is committing genocide is a very different thing than a question of solidarity with people of a specific faith. I'm proud to be a mayor of the city with the largest Jewish population in this country."

I can't even make a joke here bc this is just objectively funnier than anything I could say

A humid, but not rainy (thankfully) and great knock tonight for these democracy champions! Let’s go MN! 🧡
