awoo 5

here’s hoping!

it doesn’t get any clearer that america’s betrothal to fossil fuels is about letting energy companies pick our pockets to prop up their obsolete industry

Congratulations to @aishaforward10.com who was elected for the 3rd time as Council Member in Ward 10. You know you’re doing something right when landlords start their own PAC just to take you down, and they still lose by over 20% points. A champion for renters returns.

or @emilykoskimpls.bsky.social for when she runs again (I have no idea why, I can’t see any of this cycle’s other candidates besides her running again. Maybe she abhors the idea, but I wouldn’t mind seeing it!)

at least now lydia millard can move back into her real home in NE or wherever and stop pretending to live in ward 10

Bluesky rn

that’s fucking right she did! (but who chose this picture, strib?)

Sure the sandwich guy didn't actually hurt that cop, but that was because he was propelling the sandwich by hand, what if he'd had a sub machine gun

Dick Cheney lived long enough to witness the horrors he had unleashed.

what an auspicious start to this day.

taking him and kirk in the same year, sometimes good things do happen

awoo 4

Sometimes I think people forget that, in 2021 Rent Control got more votes than Jacob Frey did.

vote blue no matter who!!

are you sure got everyone there @startribune.com ?????? this is beyond absurd.

again, the phenomenon where all the frey staffers look like the guys who will spike your drinks in a bar needs to be studied

You mean like she used Justine Damond on behalf of Jacob Frey to loudly declare she no longer supported Betsy Hodges?

GET HIS MEDIOCRE ASS

When someone asks me why I’m ranking Omar, Jazz and DeWayne

Democrats should run a TV ad in Mike Johnson's district, thanking his constituents for taking the hit on the SNAP shutdown and other government services they use all so Mike could keep the Epstein Files from coming out? "America's Richest Pedophiles Appreciate YOUR Sacrifice!"

I WAS NOT READY 💀💀

this makes sense when you count up all the republican money she’s taken; and we’re supposed to believe her when her response to that concern at the LWV forum was a non-responsive ‘i can’t be bought’? lol k

real kings ride the campus connector!!!!

Hennepin County Board Chair Irene Fernando documents her unsuccessful efforts to get answers from Frey admin after Mariah Samuels' murder. Urges Mayor Frey's supporters to "use your influence" with the mayor to improve handling of domestic violence cases. www.hennepind2.com/statements/2...

actually kind of remarkable how fast @deenawinter.bsky.social fell off at the strib, her stuff in the reformer was always great… hope this can be explained!

JONATHAN WEINHAGEN INDICTED! what a day to be alive. the sun is shining and my enemies are facing federal charges. www.mprnews.org/story/2025/1...

Every imagined threat about socialism is modeled after real things that happened under capitalism

Don’t vote for reactionaries who will lie to your face after the polls hit and things ain’t looking good. Vote for @aishaforward10.com who supports a comprehensive transportation system.

lydia millard expressing support for building a data center in ward 10 wasn't a clumsy answer. she had a plan, she said it would create jobs, she knew exactly how many acres brooklyn park had purchased for theirs! she didn't misspeak. she was very clear about it bsky.app/profile/tayl...

of fucking course amy klobuchar voted for this. if she doesn’t have the fight in her to oppose this administration, she needs to resign ASAP to make space for someone who does.

like aisha gomez kept saying at the ward 10 convention (it definitely applies here), follow the money! they are definitely trying to buy our city!

so they’d become MORE vacant under a new mayor than they already are under Adams, the current one?

Frey's actual record: encampment shootings, fires, and explosions. Now thinks he can pin that record on his mayoral opponents.

karin birkeland has clearly never been to stevens square lately if she's touting lydia millard's experience running that neighborhood org as why she should be the ward 10 city councilmember. increasing crime, businesses closed, an exodus, this describes steven square to a T

When they view neighborhoods as drive in destinations for suburbanites; losing essential services for communities that live there is a secondary concern. Entertainment becomes the measuring stick. They see that income as the only way to “sustain” poorer areas. Instead of addressing root causes.

In an alternate universe, business columnists concerned about Minnesota’s slow growth would note the program responsible for reigniting Minnesota’s college enrollment growth was largely due to someone currently running for Minneapolis mayor: Omar Fateh. www.startribune.com/ramstad-minn...

some great stories in the qts: when i went to the eiffel tower once, it was closed due to a bomb threat. we waited for it to reopen. i went through a metal detector and set it off- dude asked if i was wearing a belt, i said yes, and then he just waved me through without sending me through again.

the tush push is so boring to watch

i imagine there’s about to be an influx of MAGA chuds spewing their bullshit but i really can’t stress enough that if we don’t give them oxygen, they’ll get bored and leave. block early and often.

this tweet turns 10 today 🎂🥳

I've heard it said that you shouldn't speak ill of the dead. So, I'd like to get it in ahead of time. Mitch McConnell is a truly awful human who has worked hard to make the US a much worse place. (And much of the rest of the world too, come to think of it.)

For those of you keeping score, 18-22 year-old students calling for an end to slaughter in Gaza are so racist they need to be expelled or deported, but 24-35 year-olds celebrating Hitler, rape, and, um, racism are just kids being kids so chill. Also, racism is over so no need for Voting Right Act.

The next statewide Minnesota DFL precinct caucuses are scheduled for Tuesday, February 3, 2026, at 7:00 p.m

ABOLISH ICE and EXPAND THE SUPREME COURT should be mainstream Democratic promises and talking points. But timidity and civility will rule the day and screw the rest of us and this country in the end.

bullying works!

St. Paul & Minneapolis have virtually the same percentage of DSA-endorsed council members (30%, 28%) yet the former has many fewer homicides & encampments per capita so I’m thinking DSA isn’t the problem.

Posted sans comment 😗!

i thought suppressing democracy was the republican playbook- says a lot about joe rad AND frey for keeping his company. these people deserve to be run out of the city!!
