Let’s make one thing clear from the start: Charlie Kirk was the victim of a shooting in a country where he, along with other right-wing extremist influencers, have been inciting violence for years. — Kirk is neither a martyr nor a hero, he is a cause.

I’ve been briefed on a shooting at Annunciation Catholic School and will continue to provide updates as we get more information. The BCA and State Patrol are on scene. I’m praying for our kids and teachers whose first week of school was marred by this horrific act of violence.

So Trump's Justice Dept. is investigating the MN Dept of Human Services because their policy is to that hiring supervisors must provide justification when hiring a non-underrepresented candidate in a job category with underrepresentation. www.kare11.com/article/news...

The most sobering part about becoming 1930’s Germany is realizing that no one is going to come here and liberate those being brutalized. If this historically inhumane regime is going to be overthrown, We The American People are going to have to do it.

If the House passes this bill, it will increase costs and hurt working class families for generations to come. Call your representative today and tell them to vote no on this bill.

Three years ago, a corrupt Supreme Court seized our rights and overturned Roe v. Wade. The resulted is just what we predicted. Women dying because they can't get basic healthcare. Doctors afraid to treat patients. We will not stop fighting until abortion rights are restored.

A Muslim son of immigrants might become mayor of NYC in part because he cross endorsed and supported a Jewish candidate and Black candidate, and vice versa. It's a beautiful American story for the rest of us. A nightmare for all the right people ;) It's so New York.

A win! Thank you to everyone who spoke out! After facing bipartisan resistance, the Senate Parliamentarian, ruled that Sen. Mike Lee’s proposal to sell off millions of acres of federal land cannot be included under reconciliation rules.

Jeff Bezos is worth $230 billion and is reportedly spending $20 million on a three-day wedding in Venice while sailing around on his $500 million yacht. If he can afford to do that, he can afford a wealth tax and to pay Amazon workers a living wage. Hello?

The American people were lied to about Vietnam, with tragic consequences. The American people were lied to about Iraq, with tragic consequences. The American people are being lied to again today. We cannot allow history to repeat itself.

The War Powers Resolution gives Congress the power to force the President to report on offensive military actions that the President takes. It also gives Congress the power to stop future strikes. I have little hope Congress will invoke this power.

And just like that, the ‘No New Wars’ people are all-in on a new war. Proving yet again that they really believe in nothing other than what one man tells them to believe today. Which could be different tomorrow. The very definition of a cult.

Dear MAGA, Will your child’s death in Iran, an illegal war where Congress was bypassed by a psycho bully, be enough to fucking wake up? Is he worth your pain, your grief, your children? Want better? Start voting better! #DemVoice1 #Voices4Victory

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

The United States should not wage war against Iran. Donald Trump’s bombing of Iran is unconstitutional. Only Congress can declare war — and the Senate must vote immediately to prevent an another endless war. This is a horrific war of choice.

Fuck you, Trump. I have draft-aged children. I'm scared as Hell. You draft-dodging, narcissistic, war-mongering, piece of shit. Christmas light day can't come fast enough.

Medicare for all, paid leave, universal childcare. Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed. Getting big money out of politics. Supporting unions and fighting for higher wages. If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda they must support.

“The best way to honor our parents' memory is to do something, whether big or small, to make our community just a little better for someone else." Beautiful statement from Sophie and Colin Hortman.

Minnesota’s flags will fly at half staff in honor and remembrance of Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman. She woke up every morning determined to make Minnesota a better place, and she will be greatly missed.

My best friend, who lives 2 blocks away, just sent me lots of video & still photos of a huge moving crowd of #NoKings protesters in St. Paul, Minnesota. Yes, Minnesota! Where political violence just struck. The state Capitol is in the background. Loud sounds of cars on I-94 honking in support.

Minnesota Star Tribune@startribune.com

The Minnesota State Patrol has encouraged the public to avoid the planned No Kings Day protests in St. Paul and across the state. Indivisible Twin Cities, one of the groups organizing local No Kings Day protests, said they still planned to demonstrate.

They think a couple of assassinations and a military parade are going to stop you from marching. Those that fuck around shall surely find out.

Melissa loved her caucus and fought hard for them and Minnesotans. The world lost a great human being today and a great leader. (2/2)
