Kristi Noem has been fired.

The Minnesota DFL's First Dog, Walnut, wants to wish you a Happy Small Dog Day!

Walnut!

DFL legislators introduced a bill to create an Office of the Inspector General and strengthen enforcement against fraud.

Guess how Republicans voted today.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court just struck down Trump’s illegal tariffs.

Republicans — from Brad Finstad all the way down to Wayne Johnson — have defended these taxes anyway, choosing Trump over Minnesotans while costs climbed for families and farmers.

Greg Davids turned his humanity into Donald Trump. And for what?

DFL Rep. Gomez calls out Republican campaign against Minnesotans.

“It’s going to be really hard to have the next generation take the serious investment — put their life savings on the line — when there’s no strong ag policy.” — Southern Minnesota dairy farmer on the impact of Trump's tariffs.

From Bring Me The News: The economic impact of Operation Metro Surge [on Minneapolis] was more than $203 million in January alone, [...] including $81 million in lost revenue for small businesses.

Yet Minnesota Republicans have no interest in helping our communities get by.

Minnesota farmers deserve leaders who listen. Thank you to everyone who joined today’s roundtable discussion (including @jakejohnsonmn.bsky.social and Senator Nick Frentz) to talk about the huge costs of Trump's tariff taxes.

Republicans Emmer, Finstad, Fischbach, and Stauber are responsible for the affordability crisis. They could have voted to stop the tariffs on Canada last Wednesday. They turned their backs on working families and farmers. Minnesota, let’s vote them out and elect people who will stand with us!

Started the morning in Brown County hearing from farmers about BradFinstad vote Wednesday to extend the affordability crisis. He chose to support tariffs on Canada and turned his back on southern Minnesota, again. Accountability for this crisis comes November 2026.

Last night, we saw historic turnout across Minnesota for caucuses.

Here are just a few of the stories we heard.

Funny thing… I signed the contract and issued the check. It’s all a partnership, Amy.

“Minnesotans turned out in historic numbers to exercise their democratic rights at precinct caucuses,” said DFL Party Chair Richard Carlbom. “Tonight is more proof that we will never stop fighting for our neighbors.”

DFL Party Statement on Trump and Bondi's Attempt to Extort Our State Voter Rolls "Donald Trump and Pam Bondi are demanding access to Minnesotans’ voter rolls in exchange for relieving us from the federal siege we are under," said DFL Party Chair Richard Carlbom. "Let us be direct: Fuck off."

Alex Pretti was a good neighbor, a helper, and a registered nurse.

Statement from the family of Alex Pretti, Michael and Susan Pretti: “We are heartbroken but also very angry. Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the hero term lightly. However his last thought and act was to protect a woman. The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He has his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down all while being pepper sprayed. Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you”

A statement from the family of Alex Pretti.

A video of Alex Pretti reading out the final salute of an unnamed veteran he cared for until the end of his life in the ICU, posted to Facebook by his son.

Fuck.

So ICE grabbed the woman in the pink jacket who filmed the whole thing and is currently holding her at the Whipple Building.

Everyone: Please share verified information by local news sources. DHS and ICE have been caught lying repeatedly and Republicans amplify that lie. We must counter disinformation as quickly as possible.
