I was one of those warning how bad it would be and how Trump 2 would be much worse than anyone complacently assumed.

But even I didn’t have β€˜cancel all foreign aid, including to kids with HIV & malaria’ and also β€˜let the world’s richest man get access to our private data’ on my 2025 bingo card.

Don't know where I've been but just heard about this guy today. After 90 minutes I can say his YT is 100% bangers and some of his wordsmithing lands like a punch to the gut. All his tour dates, including March 1 at The Cedar in Minneapolis, are sold out but maybe there's room for extra nights...

Elon bought an election so he could keep you from knowing how many people his cars have injured and killed.

Minneapolis is a union town! Great to attend the Minneapolis Regional Labor Federation's holiday party. Everyone in Minneapolis has a right to dignity, living wages and a safe workplace and anywhere in Minneapolis workers are organizing I'll be there to have your backs.

I had polio when i was 9. I was taken from my parents & placed in a Hospital for contageous diseases- the polio ward. I would see them once a week - thru the glass window at the end of my ward. I could not walk. It was terrifying. Kids died. Iron lungs were awful. Dont let RFK Jr ban the vaccine

One would think that having an uncommitted delegate write an op-ed about why they are voting for Kamala and encouraging other uncommitted delegates to do the same would be embraced by the party and be held up as an example of how to bring people into the party instead of gatekeeping.
You'd be wrong

If I was responsible for the accidental death of a person, I would immediately step down from all of my leadership positions, not run for more leadership positions 10days later. Then again I'm not a selfish jerk who wants to destroy any credibility in my party. I can't stay quiet anymore, its insane

Ellie Krug with Matt - November 20 2024 Ellie is the host of Ellie 2.0 Radio, airing at 4 PM Saturdays and replayed on Sundays.

I appreciate Ellen Krug sharing her pain today.

As we mark Transgender Day of Remembrance, she shared her disgust at the House GOP targeting the first transgender Representative with hate, and the Representative giving up without a fight.

post on X from @zeDontenator

They're literally trying to purge me from the Minnesota DFL because of my work with Uncommitted. The vote is tomorrow at our CD5 central committee meeting.

it’s *interesting* that on the v same day our state DFL party chair, Ken Martin, announces his campaign for national dnc chair, we are rn at a DFL CD5 meeting where one of our v best DFL leaders might be removed.

sam, makes this party inclusive & transparent. MN needs him.

No one thinks McBride is a threat to anyone. Pulling this shit only further confirms that the anti-trans stuff was never about safety. It’s performative cruelty to dehumanize and humiliate trans people.

The only actual experience Dr. Oz has in federal gov was being called before the Senate in 2014 and admitting he used false claims (aka lied) to personally enrich himself.

Good afternoon, Hayden, Nick, Skylar, and Suzie. I hope your week has started well. I've been following votes on HR 9495 and was surprised to see my favorite Congressperson's name having voted for this hot mess. 

As a Minnesota nonprofit leader, as well as supporter and friend of Angie's, I appreciate you sharing my insights with Angie. I would text her; however, I believe it is more important to connect with her via her team on email before reaching out personally.

HR 9495 would impact me and others who support Angie with our activism. Women's March Minnesota is ramping up and would definitely be affected negatively by this extremely detrimental bill. With a deplorable administration such as Trump's, we can not allow them such power to shut down important community voices. 

Please let Angie know I reached out asking her to vote no on HR 9495. 

Thank you,
