I’ve spent my life fighting to make Minnesota a fairer place where everyone can live with dignity, safety, and respect.
From lowering drug costs to holding corporations accountable, I’ll always stand up for Minnesotans.

I dare you to go to Annunciation School and tell our grieving community, in effect, guns don’t kill kids, antidepressants do.
Just shut up. Stop peddling bullshit. You should be fired.

Jesus, Aurin is going to win by crazy numbers!
Is “workers are paid too well, let’s lower the minimum wage” a winning message for Ward 12?

Ditto!
I voted for Dr Davis on Saturday and will be ranking him as my first choice in November along with Sen Fateh and Jazz. This is leadership and would be wonderful to see this modeled as Mayor in Minneapolis.
Since Saturday’s convention, many people have reached out to ask if I will be challenging the DFL endorsement. I want to be clear: I will not challenge the endorsement and will not collaborate with those who are challenging the endorsement.

Democracy is messy, and Frey supporters just can’t accept they didn’t have the numbers on Saturday.

sorry if this is too mean, but when you constantly quit when things get too hard or don’t go the exact way you want, you are not fit for office nor any position of power. you did this to the Minneapolis DFL you don’t need to do it again for the Park Board.
This is my last post on Bluesky for now. Sorry to leave, but I am tired of it and need to move on.

This is wild coming from the Outreach and Inclusion officer of the Minneapolis DFL. SMDH!
The big tent party is not inclusive of everyone. The term is a misnomer. If it were, we wouldn’t have so many people fighting to keep people uneducated and not engaged. If it were a big tent party, we would not have Democrats fighting Democrats. I always hated this term. It is so non-inclusive
