Dear Claire, you got MN and WI mixed up. Thankfully we in MN have Klobuchar and Smith, not Johnson. Uffda.

Arresting this man in the first place is effectively a death sentence, given post-transplant immune concerns. Denying medication makes it torture as well. Rejection symptoms are quite awful.

We don't need to think about breathing, and we shouldn't have to think about government transparency...but it's just as important to democracy as breathing is to life. www.startribune.com/readers-writ...

Thanks, chief, for protecting the people of St Peter.

12 score and 10 years ago our fathers brought forth...a nation conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all...are created equal.
Now we are...testing whether that nation or any nation so conceived and so dedicated can long endure.

I didn't see Federal govt listed in the Tennessen warning when I registered to vote. MN law would prevent that info sharing..

Disabled son of ICE detainee dies after 30 days of hospitalization It had been months since Wael Tarabishi seen his father. The family is calling on ICE to release Maher Tarabishi so he may attend his son's funeral.

In October, ICE grabbed Maher Tarabishi.

He was a 24/7 caregiver for his disabled son Wael.

At the time of Maher’s detention, disability advocates warned that taking away Wael’s caregiver put his life at risk.

Wael died on Friday at age 30.

ICE caused his death.

They didn’t get to say goodbye.

Wow.

Stolen valor. He has the medal, not the actions that warrant a prize.

We're not hearing enough about the good work @ag.state.mn.us Keith Ellison has been doing. Follow what the state AGs are doing if you need a little hopium every once in a while.

Minnesota has to come first - always.

Today, I’m proud of the work we’ve done to make Minnesota the best place to live and raise kids.

I’ve decided to step out of the race and let others worry about the election while I focus on the work.

One of the most gratifying parts of my work in 2025 was supporting the build-out of a new state agency designed to finance clean energy. From $0 to $20M in lending in a few years, with hundreds of millions in the pipeline. Public sector-driven abundance, you might say. Read more 👇 #hugabureaucrat

Adding on. My friend @kerrbear.bsky.social posted this earlier on TikTok about Nick Shirley and his latest grift. Be sure to also notice the hoodie he’s wearing in my video in the first post of this thread.

Feeding Our Future scandal: the largest COVID relief fraud case in U.S. history had a ringleader, Aimee Bock, a white woman. She founded the nonprofit, ran the operation, and was convicted on wire fraud and bribery charges. Funny how the right never blamed white folks as a group for that fraud.

Fraud is fraud. It has no ethnicity.

That brings us to YouTuber Nick Shirley. He has a track record of posting videos that stir up fear about immigration. He once orchestrated a stunt involving paid day laborers in front of the WH to push racist narratives about migrant voting behavior.

Minnesota MAGA fraudster pardoned by Trump...not immigrants?

Well, sure. I love vaulted rooms but remember the roof needs replacing, the furnace is getting old, the toilet is leaky, the wiring is out of code, and family is having some mental health issues.

“The President’s suggestion that lawmakers should face death for upholding the rule of law is not political rhetoric — it’s an authoritarian threat that shatters every democratic norm. No leader in a functioning democracy invokes death as punishment for dissent.” Full statement: bit.ly/4icmmLn

SNAP funding expires this weekend and Minnesota steps up to partially fill in the gap. Our state's food shelves keep kids and families fed during tough times. But Bill Lieske has voted against funding for our food shelves. Who's he helping? I'm running to make sure our money is spent on our people.

It is so important for the folks who represent us to have hard conversations. Showing up matters, especially when treating others with care and respect is on the agenda! Thanks Kristi Pursell 4 MN House for being there for the people.

Little girl creating bubbles with a wand.

My grand daughter says it makes her sad when she has to stay inside when there is wildfire smoke. Those days never happened for me or my daughter when we were kids.
Climate impacts are changing childhood.

Will MN Tennessen law hold?

Today is the day of the special election to fill the seat of former MN State Rep Melissa Hortman, who was shot by a right-wing extremist.

We should post and repost this 👇🏻

'A colossal train wreck': U.S. energy chief slams odds of net zero by 2050 Net zero by 2050 is "a monstrous human impoverishment program and of course there is no way it is going to happen," U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright said.

We are impoverished by increasingly more expensive fossil fuels with increasingly monstrous costs of pollution and impacts. Like whalers of the past, time to stop and embrace the future. www.cnbc.com/2025/09/09/u...

Good. More public protest from elected democratic leaders.

There is, as of right now, no coverage of this protest on the WaPo website or in their @washingtonpost.com feed.

So, if you (you reading this) want people to SEE this protest, you must share it.
