Now CBS will look even more unctuous by frantically trying to stop this from being aired EVERYWHERE. Hey, Ellisons, pro tip: The Internet is written in indelible ink and it won’t work.

A Wisconsin judge accused of intentionally misdirecting ICE away from an immigrant appearing in state court was found guilty of obstruction, and could face up to five years in prison. However, her attorney insists the case is “a long way from over.”

🚨BREAKING: The Department of Justice (DOJ) sued Georgia, Illinois, Wisconsin and Washington, D.C. Thursday for unfettered access to the states’ voter registration records. The federal government has now filed lawsuits against 21 states, plus D.C. This is a developing story...

I can't help but believe if high profile MEN were targeted like this, some solutions would be found. All too common a issue for women in politics, entertainment, sports, and the media. bringmethenews.com/minnesota-ne...

The president's creepy obsession with me is deeply unhealthy. Trump falls back on the same tired bigotry to distract from his obvious failures. His recycled xenophobia won’t intimidate me or silence my fight for the people of Minnesota’s 5th District.

counterpoint: nothing you post on any social media platform will in any way combat the dangerousness of the right

BREAKING: Chile’s governing coalition candidate concedes defeat in the presidential runoff to ultra-conservative José Antonio Kast.

very disappointing the sidewalk shoveling pilot seems to be seen as benefitting property owners by clearing their sidewalk instead of seeing issue as uncleared sidewalks making it hard for every other person to use them. city needs to shift from thinking of property owners to thinking of the public

Regardless of the merits, this messes with the narrative of the Council at the mayor’s throat, especially since they are proposing to raise his salary not theirs (based on a compensation study, in the link.)

It's good—very good, and very important—that district courts keep issuing these 100-page rulings upholding the law. It must be incredibly dispiriting to see them overturned in a two-page, lawless, unsigned order, but please, keep them coming. They expose SCOTUS' corruption like nothing else.

Time for Dems to gerrymander the shit out of their states

95% of MN Somalis are US citizens. 58% were born in the US. The only reason to target this community with immigration agents is for the sake of racial profiling and harassment - which the US supreme court says is legal now. www.npr.org/2025/09/13/n...

This is your 2 minute whistle training. Now you’re ready to use a whistle if you spot ICE.

Thousands of workers walked off the job in what organizers described as the largest mobilization against Amazon to date.

No contract, no coffee. We don’t believe in sitting on the sidelines. Join our Transition co-chair @linamkhan.bsky.social , First Deputy Mayor Dean Fuleihan & @sbworkersunited.org at the picket lines.

St. Paul police and Feds teamed up to pepper spray woman on a cane at today's ICE raid. Your tax dollars hard at work, Minnesota.

Minnesota has always been a welcoming place for immigrants and it will continue to be 💜

Glad to see "Rogue One" so high on the list. I always want to see "Solo" get more love on these though.

Baristas are on strike. So guess what? Starbucks doesn’t get a dime. We support workers, not the billionaire brewing union-busting on the side. Repost to spread word!!! #NoContractNoCoffee

"nearly 1 in 5 voters chose the same approach: they ranked Mayor Jacob Frey. And no one else." - these are the exact voters that will never own any of the problems and challenges we are currently facing under Frey. They will blame the city council or activists or Trump even

WayNO.

Happening tonight!

Just now on MSNBC: a great segment by @chrislhayes.bsky.social on the Bucks County sheriff candidate who ran against ICE’s 287g program. Very proud our attention to how local elections matter to ICE policy at @boltsmag.org is helping put these local stakes in the national discourse. They matter.

i look forward to seeing how elizabeth shaffer, someone whose only work history we know of is the park board for the last 4 years, handles being customer service for perhaps the most obnoxious constituents in all of minneapolis who were trained by lisa goodman to contact them for anything

Ward 4 gave us decades of Barb Johnson. It's almost like asking why Ward 13 does what it does. Ward 5 also tough — needed more resources and attention this year. Progressives were fortunate to have Ellison and Cunningham take these seats in 2017.

BREAKING: Minnesota SNAP recipients should get their November benefits as soon as this weekend, state officials say. The Trump administration has complied with a court order requiring the U.S. Department of Agriculture to use contingency funds to cover SNAP this month.

For real, you can just ask people over North about things that happen over North. Real people live here. Many on this app. It's not a theoretical place in Minneapolis

INTERACTIVE MAP >> Before Minneapolis' election, Katie Cashman argued Ward 7 was only seen as a moderate stronghold because renter-heavy neighborhoods had rarely turned out in force. Turnout did skyrocket in these wards — but it didn't save Cashman: www.axios.com/local/twin-c...

Becka Thompson wins the Great Value Award for the council candidate with fewest dollars spent per vote received - $4.21. She still lost big to Aurin Chowdhury ($6.47). Shelley Madore ($62.31) outdid Lydia Millard ($42.59) for biggest spender per vote. Both of them lost big.

🏆 Congratulations Ward 12, you produced highest number of voters this year. Total votes cast by Minneapolis ward (roughly equal populations - 33k): W1 13,038 W2 6,955 W3 13,737 W4 6,935 W5 5,037 W6 7,797 W7 13,285 W8 12,276 W9 8,417 W10 11,367 W11 14,202 W12 17,168 W13 16,951

Think Becca’s gonna stay in W12?

They really included Frey's reelection in this? Seriously?

Proponents and opponents of RCV have been looking at RCV like it's a magic bullet, and it's just not. It matters at the margins, but a big lead is tough to overcome. The path forward is to continue building a stronger progressive operation and coalition in 2029.

For real.

My RCV take: It’s not preventing Minneapolis progressives from achieving desired city-wide results. It is actually showing that progressives are close even when not winning. And it’s affirming something about the electorate that we don’t understand, can’t accept, or don’t know what to do about.

Think about how you're going to show up for vulnerable neighbors with this new council & mayor, & re: State elections next year.

We're gonna need a mayor who will stand up to ICE. Which means we just made a very, very big mistake.

Trump’s unprecedented attempt to rig the midterm elections took a massive hit on Tuesday. Democrats struck back with their own redistricting efforts, defeated GOP attempts to make it harder to vote, and protected Democratic judges who have ruled against Trump’s election subversion schemes.

The siren at 1pm is to warn you of four more years of this bullshit.

mostly stuff to celebrate tonight but i’m very very bummed about katie cashman. it sucks that just being good and smart and doing the work cannot always triumph over immense piles of cash :/

If you’re afraid of another Frey victory and mad tonight, make plans to get into DFL positions next year during caucuses. This whole ass system is rotten.

This is just not correct. RCV doesn’t split the vote. That is quite literally the point. One of the main advantages of RCV (or, single transferable vote) is that it doesn’t create spoilers like SMDP. The problems are again like 2021 structural and strategic, not due to the method of voting.
