Mayor Frey's default answer is to call everyone extreme, but even Nancy Pelosi and I agree it's time to take a real stand against Trump. The Mayor would rather throw in the towel because the same people who spent money putting Trump in the WH are bankrolling his campaign.

We all need to continue to call out the attacks and harassment that leaders like Aurin, Zaynab, Ilhan and Omar (among others) are facing, and shut it down. We must do better.

Islamophobia is rampant this election. We have seen it plague our city, and especially seeing it here in ward 12.

This is happening in a time of escalated political violence. There is real risk that our Muslim representatives and elected officials take on when they represent this city.

State and city democrats nationwide could and should be doing this right now build the infrastructure the federal government is destroying.

Make it clear why it is being done and where the blame lies. Every piece of infrastructure created now will be useful as the fight against fascism goes kinetic

What you see time and again in the social history of conflicts and social unrest at least in America is that elites panic and capitulate while the population rises to the occasion and protects one another as best they can. America is a lot of things but its population is the real power here.

Those of us who study authoritarianism and fascism are trying to warn you. It’s not doomerism it’s an acceptance of reality.

We all must confront the hard, scary and ambiguous reality we face now.

American fascism is solidifying power and building the infrastructure of fascist eternity.

Gladys Bentley (1907-1960) was a blues singer, pianist, and cross-dressing entertainer during the Harlem Renaissance.
She headlined in the early 1930s at Harlem's Ubangi Club, where she was backed up by a chorus line of drag queens.

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

New York Jets have not one a single game this season (0-7) but they are funding the demolition of the White House

but it was Kaepernick and the WNBA protesting police killing Black people who should β€œshut up and focus on the sport”

Candidates, campaigns, and anyone *remotely* engaged in the electoral world next year need to understand what that means, and be in relationship with people & orgs from the *many* communities that will be in the crosshairs.

Trans folks: Find. Community. Have. Support.

Allies: Fund people and work.

This and the governors race are the two most important races in the 2026 election.

This a must win. Keith and his office are doing so much good work that is protecting the most vulnerable in MN.

I keep seeing headlines about US MARSHAL SHOT BY ICE

but this buries the lede.

ICE shot multiple people including a witness filming them attempt to abduct someone

AND all of this happened outside of a school

These are not the actions of a person who believes they will ever leave Office again. I will just keep saying that louder and louder and tell people understand that the person now destroying the White House never plans on leaving.

In Minneapolis, a network of big $ political committeesβ€”All of Mpls, We Love Mpls, and Thrive Mplsβ€”share donors, staff, and messaging.

In July, We Love Mpls was cited by the Campaign Finance Board (CFB) for violating disclosure rules.

Here's why all of them could be in violation of MN laws. πŸ‘‡
