i am inviting anyone from a legacy media organization to explain to me why the house judiciary dems report on trump’s epstein’s ties and multiple allegations of rape isn’t worthy of extensively reporting on. i’m serious. i want to understand.

“it would be really sad in this moment of minnesota did not defeat republicans up and down the ballot,” ilhan omar says minnesota is not interested in a “pedophile protection party, minnesota does not come after our refugees, we send one to congress.”

For years we've been told the DSA is a menace — a threat to our very way of life — by the same Frey guys courting MAGA Republican support for their candidate for Hennepin county attorney.

Something a lot of people don't understand is that law firms are *owned* by the partners. He is not an employee of Jones Day, he is a part-owner of Jones Day. It is fully legitimate to blame him for the decisions the firm makes; he helps make them.

What do you think the overlap is of Minnesotans who swell with pride at local organizing against ICE and the people who want a partner at Trump's favorite law firm to be the next Hennepin County Attorney?

I’m still laughing at the desperate way I handed my husband a piece of paper that said CEDRICK FRAZIER at the early voting center, because I realized we hadn’t talked about the whole ballot.

"Serbia’s longtime nationalist strongman, Aleksandar Vucic, conceded defeat Sunday in a general election held after his once-tight grip on power was weakened by nearly two years of student-led street protests." Slobodan Milosevic was this asshole's mentor. If Serbia can do it, we have hope here.

wellstone was the first politician i ever got to volunteer for. people love to quote “we all do better when we all do better” but i try to live by this one: “If we don't fight hard enough for the things we stand for, at some point we have to recognize that we don't really stand for them.”

Twenty-four years ago today, on October 25, 2002, Minnesota lost Senator Paul Wellstone. We also lost his wife, Sheila, and their daughter, Marcia. Campaign staffers. Today, take moment to honor Wellstone's amazing legacy.

Far right protesters can walk into libraries to threaten people with a police escort and block roads asking brown skinned people for ID while the Gardai look on. The same Gardai will happily put a dozen leftie students in A+E for a week during an eviction protest. I hope this helps your analysis

The HCAO won an Emmy Award for this story on Marvin Haynes’ exoneration and what our office has done to prevent wrongful convictions. Correcting injustices of the past and best practices to avoid them in the future are critical to the mission of the HCAO.

links-2.govdelivery.comJustice Reimagined: Preventing the Next Wrongful Conviction (HCAO Conviction Integrity Unit)In this Regional Emmy® Award-nominated documentary, At just 16 years old, Marvin Haynes was sentenced to life in prison for a crime he did not commit—a murder inside a Minneapolis flower shop. Based on a deeply flawed eyewitness identification and a rushed investigation, Marvin’s conviction exemplifies the devastating consequences of a system that prioritizes convictions over truth- leaving the real killer unaccountable. Told in Marvin's own words, alongside voices from the legal team that fought for his freedom, Justice Reimagined is a powerful portrait of resilience, injustice, and transformation. For nearly two decades, Marvin held onto hope from behind bars, teaching himself the law, discovering others like him, and refusing to let the system define his worth. Through the lens of his exoneration—secured by the tireless work of the Great North Innocence Project and a historic shift in accountability by the Hennepin County Attorney’s Office—the film exposes how wrongful convictions happen and how they can be undone. It also marks a turning point: the formation of a Conviction Integrity Unit aimed at preventing future injustices. This is more than the story of one man’s freedom. It’s a call to reckon with the past and reimagine justice for the future. https://www.hennepinattorney.org/ AWARDS & RECOGNITION 🏆 2026 Alliance for Community Media Hometown Media Award — Winner 🏅 2026 Upper Midwest Regional Emmy® Award — Winner

Anti-trans Democrats are spreading poison when we can least afford it, during elections in this ongoing fascist takeover. As a strategy, it’s a recipe for failure. As a moral stand, it’s reprehensible. PS I’m the father of young trans woman and I’ll never forgive anyone who makes her life harder.

the algorithm effect makes it so people are very activated against, say, the issue of data centers, but there is a lack of a self education being done on the topic of how local governments work to translate this motivation to make change into effective opposition, IMO

I should have mentioned that my office is Minneapolis Elections & Voter Services. The Mayor's budget eliminates seven staff members less than two weeks before an anxiety-inducing midterm. No more high school election judge program. No more voter outreach.

You know those relationships you developed over the winter? Those folks you showed up for? Check in with em. Does someone need their kids watched, or groceries? It is okay if your body isn't able to do what you did nine months ago. But maybe you can still help with something. No shame ♥️
