Yes, let's address the issue one specific prop bet at a time. I'm sure that ought to do it.

Here's another view of the final-round 2025 Minneapolis mayor vote by ward. I've sorted from the ward with the largest absolute margin to the smallest. The ones in parentheses favored Fateh, those without parentheses favored Frey.

They're the absolute bane of high schools in a lot of places. Kids vaping is much harder to detect than smoking. I've even talked to administrators who've caught kids doing it in class! (In one case, they only caught the kid bc the kid posted a video of it to social media during the school day)

"Maxwell has received custom meals personally delivered to her cell, after-hours time in a private exercise area, access to a service puppy, and private meetings with visitors arranged by the warden, complete with snacks. Visitors were allowed to bring computers..." www.msnbc.com/msnbc/news/d...

I received this email about Democrats caving to end the shutdown from one of the SNAP recipients I spoke to:

What does the verb “fight” mean to you? Like, post online?

Healthcare is a human right. Democratic Senators should fight for it like lives depend on it because they do.

Cowards die many times before their deaths, The valiant never taste of death but once.

omg the accuracy

in disarray

I will not support this bill that completely fails to help Americans afford their health care. Trump and R’s have more than doubled Americans’ health care premiums, and for 40 days they have refused to lift a finger to do a thing about it. In fact, they’ve made it worse by taking food from kids.

Do you have Tim Kaine’s phone number?

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person. The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person. People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives. And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Two days ago

This capitulation only gets us a CR for 2 ½ months?!?

Does @schumer.senate.gov know anyone in a position of leadership in the Senate who could influence his colleagues?

Trump getting booed at the Commanders game

Fight for the ACA @amyklobuchar.com @klobuchar.senate.gov !

Do we know where @amyklobuchar.com @klobuchar.senate.gov is on this negotiation? A chance to be disappointing in the name of bipartisanship will be awfully hard for her to turn down.

Absolute queen shit

"When I picked up my granddaughter from the federal agents, she had a dirty diaper, a bruise on her face, and was developing a rash. She was exhausted and cried… My heart aches knowing this could happen to others, to my kids, or even me, despite being U.S. citizens.”

So it turns out... the US air travel system was incredibly, deeply dependent on federal funding to just run day-to-day all this time, to the benefit of private airline shareholders, when everyone thinks that state-run trains are leeching off the government. Weird!

Donald Trump is giving special treatment to a convicted child rapist to cover up his connection with her and another child rapist. This is front page stuff even in today’s America.

UNREAL. DAYNE ST. CLAIR SCORES A PENALTY IN THE SHOOTOUT, ANDREW THOMAS HITS THE BAR, THE LOONS WIN THE SHOOTOUT 7-6 AND ADVANCE, EVERYONE IN THE STADIUM IS SCREAMING SO I MIGHT AS WELL DO THIS IN ALL CAPS #MNUFC #SOUNDERS

Atrocious

That was a choice, voters are good with him as long as his cruelty, his lies, his cynicism, his police dont really touch them in any material way. They can ride. The only place it stings, they look themselves in the mirror - maybe I'm not the great liberal person I thought I was

YES

this analysis is strange in that it doesnt answer the fundamental question about Minneapolis voters - if Frey's multiple lies and polarizing ways were truly against their values and they were tired of it, why did they not choose Davis? www.startribune.com/jacob-frey-r...

DA’s 🧵 is worth reading & I would only note that Davis spent a good part of the campaign with ZERO paid staff. The Minneapolis “middle” (center-left, whatever you want to call it) doesn’t have any sort of durable campaign infrastructure. Frey does & DSA does. You need 2+ years to win mayor‘s race.

Sitting in the Minneapolis airport and they just announced my flight home is delayed by 2 and a half hours, because of air traffic control staffing issues at Charlotte

Some thoughts on Eric Roper’s finger-wag in the mayor’s race: www.startribune.com/jacob-frey-r... 1. Asking “what chance did [Davis & Hampton] have ignores Frey’s agency is creating the race‘s dynamics. Frey sued the most moderate hope (Emily Koski) to cut off her money & intimated others. 1/

LET ME BE PERFECTLY CLEAR: DOJ DID ALL OF THIS TO TRY AND STOP PAYMENTS TO PEOPLE UNDER AN ANTI-HUNGER PROGRAM.

Sometimes I see people like 20 tweets deep into an argument with Grok. Like, what are you doing brother? You are trying to win an argument with a vending machine.

ryan is right. people HATE hearing this. but it is just a matter of simple incentives. if you want a more representative legislature — and if you want a legislature more resistant to corruption — then you need to jack up the salaries. serving as mayor of NYC should net you a cool 500K *at least*

I think big tech like Facebook and Twitter have likely been a net negative for humanity, and I fear that OpenAI may be orders of magnitude worse. www.cnn.com/2025/11/06/u...

I helped make a film, out this week, called “Rovina’s Choice,” about the deaths this man without conscience or accountability has caused — already 600,000, ⅔ of them children.

As a white man, I hate AI for appropriating my culture of being confidently wrong about things while using Reddit as a primary source.

With our mayor getting reelected, and showing he thinks MPD working with ICE is just fine, I’m concerned for the safety and livelihood of many of our Latine small business owners and their families. Please consider visiting these locations around the metro! Based on recommendations from you!

actual communism

worth noting that jason garcia's victory in district 4 was achieved with no yard signs and only a handful of rally signs around. this shows that lawn signs are not an indicator of how an election is going to go! same with ward 10, people thought aisha chughtai was in trouble and lydia would win

When I started this campaign, I made a commitment to myself and to the people of this city that I would run with the values we share: honesty, integrity, transparency and care. I’m proud of the campaign that we’ve run, and I’m so thankful everyone who has held me to those values.

I hope through my husband's campaign for Mayor, our city got to see the sides of him that inspire me. I wanted you to be inspired to become the City our residents so desperately need. I hope that in response to his vision for #Minneapolis, you step up in serve one another in a new way.
