I am genuinely confused why the mayor was not mentioned or interviewed.

Genuinely wondering-why is our strong mayor not mentioned in this story?

"In every CBA negotiation, the goal of the league and teams is to divide the players. These negotiations are no different. We remain united and focused on delivering a transformational CBA for all members of this Union, and are committed to negotiating for as long as it takes. Our Union's nearly unanimous vote in December to authorize us to call a strike, if and when necessary, was not taken lightly. It was made with complete faith and trust in ourselves and our negotiating committee, led by Executive Director Terri Carmichael Jackson and President Nneka Ogwumike, to represent all players as we work to build a W that truly puts players first. Nothing has changed. That decision, and the results of our recent player survey, reaffirm that the current league proposal is not worth taking. Despite our differences and tough moments, we must make crystal clear that we are focused, we are resolute, and we are together. We want to play basketball in 2026. We want to be in front of our fans playing the game that we love. We will not stop fighting. There is no WNBA without the players."

Pay the players what you owe them, @wnba.com.

Solidarity with WNBPA players in their fight for a fair contract. America’s unions have your backs!

Here’s the situation in the Twin Cities:

Random Bovino-style tear-gassing: Way down

Relentless persecution of immigrants: Unchanged

Thuggish violence against observers: Way up

Last week on the trail, I found one of my favorite quiet miracles.

These are Pipevine flowers — easy to miss, blooming before the leaves arrive, long before most things wake up.

They’re part of a remarkable relationship that eventually gives rise to the Pipevine Swallowtail butterfly.

that’s my congresswoman!

It’s a privilege to represent an ~80% renter community. The most vulnerable of my constituents, along with vulnerable renters across the Southside and Minneapolis, are at risk of losing their homes come the 1st when rent is due. We need @governorwalz.mn.gov to enact an eviction moratorium NOW.

Thank you to our first responders making a ruckus outside so I know when that little weirdo Greg Bovino rolls his convoy within honking distance of my home.

from city hall to the streets-a hero!

This moment is really giving us clarity on who’s among the people.

Let me go $20 million over budget on something and I can make a hype video too.

That’s my commissioner!!!!!!

Hmmmm. I feel like as a former andersen teacher I disagree with lake street. I think Franklin. Also I consider seward to be southside

Everyone knows the biggest healthcare fraudsters in Minnesota aren’t Somali, they’re at UnitedHealth Group. I want to hear DFLers point the finger, accurately, at this entire convoluted dumb HMO system of vouchers & grants (the DFL itself helped create) that somehow makes millionaires in Minnetonka.

truly blessed as a state to have leaders like @bradtabke.bsky.social

This week we are averaging 750-1000 whistles distributed per day- and those are just the ones our volunteers are providing and coordinating.

Be safe, form a crowd, and BLOW THOSE WHISTLES.

Oh my.

Congrats!!!

Realized this is the first full week Kupchellacrats go from “Me sowing: Haha fuck yeah!!! Yes!!” over Frey’s re-election to “Me reaping: Well this fucking sucks. What the fuck“ trying to get Walz re-elected. A Precarious State indeed.

almost.

We should do a post election analysis!

This is some never seen before footage of this event! (Well at least to me 🤔)
