#FailureFrey: The Case for a New Mayor Purpose This document aims to be a detailed set of reasons to NOT vote for Jacob Frey, who is running for a third four-year term as the mayor of Minneapolis. Each issue section has short descriptions ...

Still thinking of voting for @mayorjacobfrey.bsky.social? Let's see what he's done over the past 8 years: docs.google.com/document/d/1...

With the addition of Lydia Millard, please consider this an anti-voter guide. Don’t rank these people!

Reed’s the real deal. Please consider helping him out as he establishes himself in a new city that is very lucky to have him.

Title Text: "Frey Ally & All of Mpls Board Alum Indicted by Federal Grand Jury" with sub, "Jonathan Weinhagen was indicted for crimes he appears to have committed just a year before Frey tried to push through a "free contract" with the City for Weinhagen." Over a photo of Weinhagen and Frey at an event.

Frey ally and former All of Mpls board member indicted by federal grand jury.

Earlier today, Jonathan Weinhagen was charged for theft of $200,000 in 2021.

In 2022, Mayor Frey was lobbying for the City to accept free “consulting” contracts from him. Luckily, Council said no.

Allegedly stealing money from a reward fund to find the shooter of 3 north side kids — after funding a PAC accusing Frey’s opponents of being soft on crime. That’s some evil shit.

I graduated HS with him and this is somehow both surprising and NOT AT ALL.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

Texas Can’t Keep Up with Surge in Workers’ Wage Theft Complaints State labor investigators struggle to process more and more paycheck complaints, with millions of dollars in workers’ pay at stake.

New from José Luis Martínez: Last year, state investigators faced the highest number of paycheck complaints in nine years and a prior internal audit noted that it typically took months just for complaints to be assigned to an investigator.

The audacity.

Honestly, this shows they have finally figured out the voters — not the donors — are progressive. Please spread the word in Ward 10 that Lydia Millard is lying about this.

Mayor Frey created the role of Commissioner of Community Safety (the highest paid city employee!) so that stories like this never mention the mayor is in charge.

Legitimately mad about this. Lots of people in Ward 10 want to vote for the candidate who support alternative transportation. Lydia Millard should stop lying to voters about being a bike advocate. She has very explicitly campaigned against bike, pedestrian, and transit infrastructure.

honestly why I believe horseshoe theory isn't real.

but political whiteness is.

42 year old, here. I definitely remember coveting these shirts.

I mean. That’s one way to do it. 🤷‍♀️

Minneapolis mayor also calls for a …

lol I’m kiddin I’m kiddin

I’m kiddin

After the Mayor vetoed the Labor Standards Board, he had a letter read out loud in our council chambers where he said he would bring a proposal forward together in January 2025 with a unified vision and that the work “doesn’t end here."

It’s October. He didn’t. He lied again.

The Onion can re-run this today with D’Angelo swapped in for Prince

RIP a(nother) legend

I hope @dewayneforminneapolis.com doesn't mind me retelling a story he told me when we first met last winter. I kept it to myself because he wasn’t telling it publicly but he mentioned it yesterday. It’s one of the things that’s leading me to rank him first. A hope-its-ok-and-I-get-right 🧵:

MYTH: ICE agents lack proper training. FACT: Most have been racists their entire lives.

White People’s Performative Ignorance Is Exhausting—Opinion Disbelief over authoritarianism in America isn’t a cutesy personality trait. It’s a confession: You haven’t been paying attention.

"Black people are tired. Not metaphorically tired—actually tired. The kind of tired that turns every group chat into a mix of gallows humor and emotional triage."

I write about white ignorance and how exhausting it is to hear white ppl insist "this isn't who we are, when it's ALWAYS who we've been.
