Virginia state House Speaker Don Scott said in a fundraising email last night that in light of the SCOTUS Texas ruling, Democrats in Virginia will pursue a new 10-1 gerrymander.

This is leadership.

margaret anderson kelliher accidentally thanked robin wonsley instead of latrisha vetaw who had actually finished speaking. “y’all are so messy,” said vetaw. “that was so messy.” “i am messy,” MAK said. then vetaw called her by the wrong name too. MAK: “fair!”

What is percent police over total budget - and how is the percentage of budget that is police changing year over year?

Minneapolis police blows budget by $19.6 million; council leaders call it ‘mismanagement’ Police Chief Brian O’Hara says it’s costly to replenish the ranks, since new hires need training while existing officers still rack up OT.

I give @deenawinter.bsky.social & the Strib credit for bringing the wood to the MPD budget fiasco. Total Frey administration failure to a) manage & b) inform policymakers before the crisis. Election year shittery. www.startribune.com/minneapolis-...

Pipe bomb suspect told FBI he believed 2020 election conspiracy theories The suspect has been cooperating with the FBI, according to sources, and is expected to make his first court appearance on Friday.

Turnip DOJ didn't find it important to tell us this about the pipe bomb suspect. 🙄

New DFL candidate running for the Minnesota 43b seat in west metro that @repfreiberg.bsky.social is leaving to run for the state Senate. This is the seat Ryan Winkler is attempting a comeback in, so if you’re a progressive, think about hitting Jess with a donation at votejesslewis.com.

special shout-out to the Bernie bro who told me in 2016 that the Supreme Court wasn't all that important, and Hillary's picks would be just as bad as Trump's

Exclusive | Pete Hegseth did not order Admiral Mitch Bradley to execute an airstrike on shipwrecked Venezuelans. He texted the order to a journalist.

Have you met baby Kaikai?

This 6-month-old little girl is a rascal!

Without her mom around anymore, they, along with the older elephant orphans, will help raise her until she’s ready to return to the wild and live as she should once again.

In about 8 years.

Thank you @sheldricktrust.bsky.social!

Elon Musk’s Foundation Grows to $14 Billion, but Gives Little to Outsiders

“Elon Musk’s charitable foundation grew larger than ever in 2024. But, for the fourth year in a row, the huge charity failed to give away the minimum amount required by law — and the donations it did make went largely to charities closely tied to Mr. Musk himself.”

www.nytimes.com/2025/12/02/u...

Remember Admiral Holsey? The WSJ says Holsey had concerns about the boat strikes long ago. He expressed his concerns. Hegseth “asked” him to step down.

Hegseth, at the very least politically…will not survive this thing. He will not.

It’s bigger than he OR Trump at this point.

Me too. I think Walz needs to be challenged in primary. I don’t know anyone in my circle of friends who is happy that Walz is running for reelection.

How Fraud Swamped Minnesota’s Social Services System on Tim Walz’s Watch

Folk who think Walz is DFL’s best shot in 2026 should realize he may be among the worst. Sure, it’s the New York Times, but the headline “How Fraud Swamped Minnesota’s Social Services System on Tim Walz’s Watch” crystallizes how Ds can’t depend on GOP failure forever. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/29/u...

Stefanik says Johnson ‘certainly' wouldn’t be reelected speaker Rep. Elise Stefanik blasted House Speaker Mike Johnson as an ineffective leader.

Republicans in disarray...

Stefanik says Johnson ‘certainly’ wouldn’t be reelected speaker

Rep. Elise Stefanik blasted House Speaker Mike Johnson as an ineffective leader.

Corporations to claim $16B from retroactive GOP tax break, federal report says The Republican tax law's bonus depreciation provision is expected to cost $362.7 billion over the next ten years, with corporations claiming $16 billion in new tax breaks this year.

Donald Trump and Republicans gave billionaire corporations a giant tax handout to "incentivize" investments they ALREADY MADE.

As far as I'm aware, they don’t have a time machine.

It's just the latest excuse to throw money at billionaires while Americans struggle to get by.

Will D trip support him?

Malice murder.

We’re waiting!! 😡We have too many people crimming in our government.

Five months later, we are still waiting for Team Frey to be vindicated for the righteous scolding they gave everyone for overreacting to the "suspected criminal conspiracy" at the root of the Lake Street raid.

They have a really good Frankenstein exhibit at the Bakken Museum. Frankenstein kind of inspired Dr. Earl Bakken to make the world's first pacemaker. Frankenstein and transistor radios.

It was a remarkable master class by @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social

I love the President is rooting for our Mayor Elect to do a great job and he will help him.

Traitor Trump strikes again. PS isn't this an impeachable offense?

Would be very surprised if it was Walz.

Elizabeth Warren on Colbert's show: "We don't think one corporation or one man named David Ellison should be able to buy up all the shows and buy up all the sports and buy up all the news and decide who watches what and I'm gonna stay in that fight."

Also important Team Not Frey get an Audit & Entepride Oversight Committee majority. Again, no need to oppose everything mayor does, but critical to asserting council independence & biggest check on strong mayor in new system. Was foot-dragging in 2021-23, only time Frey had council majority.

Quiet, piggy.

Despicable.

Republicans calling Mamdani an Islamic terrorist, then honoring Mohammed Prince "Bone Saws" bin Salman Al Saud with a White House visit is the most audacious display of GOP repugnance I've seen in about the last hour. If a nonstop flow of dumpster juice is your thing, they'll never disappoint.
