#FinstadWatch

Have you noticed that the #FinstadForCongress fundraising effort has gone into overdrive since 48% of #MN01 constituents say that #RepFinstad does NOT deserve another term ?

Two appeals in two days !
#BradFinstad knows he has FAILED #MNCD1 and is vulnerable.

#Trump rescinded his October endorsement of #GOP #RepJeffHurd #CO03 after voting to repeal #TrumpTariffs against #Canada ...

Now you know why #RepFinstad wouldn't stand up for #MNCD1 families ... #BradFinstad has #FearOfTrump

#FinstadForCongress issues a fundraising appeal prompting the question "Who is the rubber stamp" ?

#BradFinstad issued a statement on November 3 2025 that #Trump has endorsed him for #Elections2026 promising to "work closely with President Trump" (aka BE the RUBBER STAMP)

There are approximately 286,785 households in Minnesota's Frist District, so #RepFinstad needs to tell #Trump to send us $487,534,500

#BradFinstad supported #TrumpTariffs which "wreaked havoc on farmers, enraged our allies, and sent grocery prices through the roof"

#FoodInsecurity is a problem for many in #Minnesota ... meet Diane who wants you to know β€œThere are so many of us seniors who aren’t making it”

$56 trillion national debt leading to a spiraling crisis: budget watchdog warns the U.S. is walking a crumbling path | Fortune Trump is putting the U.S. economy on a "sugar high" and leaving other people holding the bill when it comes due a decade from now, according to the CRFB.

When you hear #FauxFiscalConservative #BradFinstad complain about the debt being pushed on his grandkids, remind him that #ICE's budget has skyrocketed with #RepFinstad's approval, becoming the highest-funded US law enforcement agency, with $85 billion AND the DEBT GROWS

#GeorgeWill says #TrumpTariffs are a boomerang into the very outcome they’re meant to prevent as Canada is signing #TradeDeals while America can expect cost shocks, delayed capex and production reallocation.

@jakejohnsonmn.bsky.social gets it; #Finstad does NOT

Wanna bet that #MN01 #RepFinstad who is quick to profess that "I stand behind our brave ICE officers" won't call for a review of masked individuals who reportedly rammed a suspected ICE vehicle into a constituent's car INTENTIONALLY

18-year-old with loaded shotgun detained after running toward the US Capitol A security concern at the U.S. Capitol caused police to respond to the area on Tuesday morning.

When is it time to talk about guns ?

18 year old from Georgia wearing a tactical vest, carrying a rifle without a license with multiple rounds of ammunition arrested in DC.

Congress may not have been in session but staff and tourists were there.

Glad no one was hurt.

Let's rephrase the question ... what album issued when you were 19 still has an impact today?
John Prine's 1971 release still motivates me
"Hello In There" when I visit friends in an assisted living center,
"Sam Stone" when I think of our Vietnam vets, and "Paradise" when I think of coal mining

One of my roommates in college was a true musicophile with more records than a record store. One weekend he went to a party at Ted Nugent's and the question to answer for admittance was : Who is the greatest guitar player (and there was only one acceptable answer).

I'm a few years younger than you (although I do remember the Blind Faith album) and the dorms offered a variety of musical tastes in 1971. Everybody had Led Zeppelin IV, Sticky Fingers, Allman Brothers at the Filmore, Aqualung, Imagine, Every Picture Tells a Story, American Pie, and Tupelo Honey

In the first six months of 2025, taxpayers paid for 75 Unsolicited Mass Communications requested by #RepRandyFeenstra (such as informing voters that #Trump is Renaming Gulf of Mexico to Gulf of America).

#Feenstra is starting 2026 strong with 6 approved requests.

How the SAVE Act could complicate voting for millions of Americans
YouTube video by Mother Jones How the SAVE Act could complicate voting for millions of Americans

Did you read #MajorieTaylorGreene say "Good luck trying to get women to vote for Republicans in the midterms you insensitive clowns."

Watch the video and hear the difficulty that women will have thanks to #MN01 #RepFinstad and his support for #S1383 #SAVEAct
