Richard is getting people who are CRYING while talking about how HARD it is here to put in HUNDREDS OF HOURS into the DFL only to be yelled at by centrists and he’s not… doing great responding.

The most telling thing about Jacob Frey running for a third term is that *none* of either the Minneapolis legislative delegation or the Hennepin County Board have endorsed him. That's pretty wild. www.jacobfrey.org/endorsements...

don't give the state DFL one dime. they have shown this year they don't care about minneapolis, or they would've given resources to help plan the city convention. instead, they ignored pleas for help from organizers, then when errors happened, they punished the minneapolis DFL unit

So ads to buy three months worth of survivalist food is now mainstream? Is that where we are? Watching the #ALCS.

@mayorfrey.com’s SUV was parked in a no parking zone for several hours today. What a scuff law! Created a hazard for people in my condo building.

good luck to the state DFL and its candidates in 2026 but all their recent decisions just reaffirm that i will remain focused on covering minneapolis politics next year instead of the statewide elections. if the state thinks we're not important, that can go both ways!

After 8 years of failed promises on everything from police reform to homelessness Minneapolis cannot afford a third term of Jacob Frey.

Luckily, we don’t have to!

Right now, the City's homelessness response team consists of just four positions – and they work in a department that manages parking enforcement and animal control.

Our unhoused neighbors deserve dignity. We need to do better – and with the right leadership, we can.

Some personal news... Rupert had a large growth removed from his front-left leg 6 days ago. He is recuperating fast and is already back to his usual self.

Thank you @omarfatehmn.com for calling out Jacob Frey’s lies so clearly. And doing it when he’s sitting three feet from you? 😍

Jacob Frey vetoed the budget that increased funding for Stable Homes Stable Schools. Now he’s campaigning on Stable Homes with his ad for the Northside.

I came across this article while waiting for my covid booster. I don’t understand why local media prop up Arradondo. His ineffectiveness contributed to Chauvin murdering Floyd. His results as MPD chief speak for themselves. Arradondo failed. mspmag.com/arts-and-cul...
In Conversation with Former MPD Chief Medaria Arradondo
After trying to protect and serve his home-town through 31 years and a historic civil rights uprising, the former cop is still working to keep the peace.

Hopefully the new Minneapolis park board is more open to traffic calming the parkways after the election. This happened today neat the stone arch bridge parking lot, and right next to the bike path.

I was given the stink eye once for just mildly disparaging the state fair. Now I feel heard.

Who doesn’t love the Minnesota State Fair? Plenty of people, it turns out.
Naysayers mention the heat, the crowds and the prices as reasons to not go to the Great Minnesota Get-Together.

Ok, story’s out about DFL mayoral endorsement being revoked. Remember as you talk to folks:
- Fateh had nothing to do with faulty tabulation
- Frey finished with 30%, pathetic for an incumbent
- Maybe pay attention to the guy actually hurt, who came out of nowhere to grab 20%: DeWayne Davis.

The Minneapolis police officer who fatally shot Amir Locke — and, until recently, led MPD’s use-of-force training — is not the only trainer whose record has raised concerns over the department’s commitment to changing its culture.
