Ten of the 13 Minneapolis City Council members authored a resolution calling on the school board to consider alternatives to school closures.

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

We need to normalize union organizing in every sector of American life.

City of Minneapolis might not have a massive budget problem right now if they'd simply forced MPD to stuff an envelope full of cash and write "overtime" on the front, so that police could see and feel the impact of spending beyond their means.

Bde Maka Ska Parkway is now a routine annual closure on July 3-5. Where are the "pry my parkway from my cold dead hands" freedom fighters??? minneapolisparks-my.sharepoint.com/:w:/g/person...

Don’t drive — take the (f)E Line! 🐱🚍

Very important post! Also I will continue to plug the Caro books. So informative and detailed.

Outspent, but never outworked. It’s one thing to talk about coalitions, it’s another thing to build them.

this is just so incredible and represents the every day community and solidarity that binds us together.

What a great message to send to the families, students, and staff of MPS! Take yourself to Wayzata too and manage their police force.

eric harris bernstein and david gilbert pederson hand out TAX THE RICH, FUND OUR FUTURE signs at the DFL convention, a task only given to people known by three names

Here's a shot I took of the 1984 DFL state convention, held the the old Saint Paul Civic Center. Four well-known candidates vied for the Senate endorsement: John Derus, Wendy Anderson, Jim Oberstar and Joan Growe. The balloting went all night, with Growe winning endorsement early the next morning.

This is shameful and ridiculous. My partner and dog waited outside on this bench for me while I pick up holds. Scary! I’m calling my commissioner tomorrow and encourage others to do the same.

I really want to do a research project that looks into whether or not any of the same families involved in the Citizens Alliance are caught up in all of this garbage.

HCMC — the most important safety net hospital in the Upper Midwest — is on the verge of collapse, while Mayo netted $1.5 billion in profit. It’s not just a struggling institution, it’s a broken system.

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!

Seven children from this MN school district have been detained by ICE. 2 of them are still in ICE custody in TX. The district has lost track of how many parents have been taken. At just one elementary 26 parents have been detained by ICE www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

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!

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 Day in Labor History: December 16, 1977. Eight women bank workers at Citizens National Bank in Willmar, Minnesota went on strike, charging sex discrimination they faced on the job. Let's talk about these brave women and their fight for justice!

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.

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.

This is why my union has not endorsed in this race. Frey has betrayed working people over and over again with the latest being vetoing an ADVISORY board on labor standards Time for a new mayor @omarfatehmn.com @dewayneforminneapolis.com @jazzformayor.bsky.social

Doing a podcast is way outside my comfort zone but this election is too important! We must re-elect a progressive and pro-worker council. And, it’s time for a new mayor! Really grateful to @wedge.live for having me!!

I’m so excited to have my Congresswoman and friend, @ilhanmn.bsky.social, on board with my candidacy for Mayor! She fights hard for the working people of Minneapolis. As Mayor, I’ll partner with leaders like her to build an affordable city that's accountable to us. secure.actblue.com/donate/fateh...

I cannot think of a more consequential election for our city.

Disappointed mayoral challengers haven't adopted this as a stock response on encampments: "You're damn right I believe encampments shouldn't exist. I question the mayor's commitment to that goal. For yrs under his leadership we've seen an endless string of encampment tragedies."

I’m still thinking about the fact that a Strib reporter, who is herself protected and represented by a union, tried to blame Ann Kim’s mismanagement of the finances of her business and total PR flops on her workers who attempted to unionize. And used a known wage thief to try to help make the point

Solidarity with the University of MN Teamsters Local 320 union! It’s time to end poverty wages. With CM @robin4mpls.bsky.social and CM @aurinmpls.bsky.social

Hope to see many of you tonight at our zoom mayoral forum!

The media is as liberal as the wealthy that own it. See Strib/Glenn Taylor, Washington Post/Bezos, Fox/Murdoch, KSTP/Hubbard etc.

Our children deserve to grow up. Fletcher Merkel and Harper Moyski should still be alive. As a father, I'm heartbroken for what these families are going through. As a legislature, we need to take action. We need a special session. Let's move our feet. senatedfl.mn/senator-omar...

Unacceptable.
