Bondi's letter makes it clear the invasion of Minnesota was never about immigration enforcement. The Trump administration is terrorizing and killing Minnesotans in pursuit of its illegal and horrifying political agenda. We need to fight Trump in courts, in the streets, and in the media.
Indivisible press release slamming Minnesota Chamber of Commerce statement as week
I am once again asking for wealthy, powerful CEOs to display a fraction of the courage that regular people are showing every day in Minnesota
Amen to this.
Earlier today, I held a press conference with @governorwalz.mn.gov to update Minnesotans after the fatal killing of Alex Pretti and our efforts to rein in ICE here in Minnesota.
Tomorrow, Monday, January 26, our case to end Operation Metro Surge will be heard in federal court at 9a CT.
With Mark Ostrem's resignation last year and Keven Torgerson's announcement yesterday he isn't running for another term, November's election will be the first in decades where Olmsted County voters won't have either a sheriff or a county attorney running for re-election.
4 weeks (and 10 hours) until precinct caucuses. Should be interesting with open seat Governor, U.S. Senate, and Auditor races. Most of Olmsted 20/24 DFL's caucuses will be at Mayo High School in Rochester, but we'll also have caucuses at Stewartville High School and Byron Middle School.
Listening to an oldies station while driving yesterday and heard "Amy, what you gonna do" which seemed very appropriate for the moment.
of his district and his state first. We look forward to what he can do in his last year of office. Minnesota is a better place now than it was when he took office, thanks to his work and the work of DFL legislators over the last seven years. (2/2)
Saddened to hear yesterday Governor Walz is no longer running for re-election. We've known him in our area for over 20 years, first as a teacher running a long-shot race for Congress, then as our member of Congress, and now as Governor. He is a servant leader who has put the interests (1/2)
Good example of what every elected Dem and candidate should be saying loudly right now:
Couldn't have said it better ourselves.
Like Senator Smith, we have little hope Republicans will address the sharply rising cost of health insurance.
A graphic comparing JD Vance's assessment that the economy deserves an "A+++" grade, to a tweet from @TheDemocrats that reads, "NEW JOBS DATA: In October, the U.S. economy lost 105k jobs—the most in a single month since December 2020."
Grading on a massive curve

Her first political job was as an organizer on Tina Liebling's successful 2004 campaign
If 200,000 Minnesotans lose health insurance coverage due to Brad Finstad's votes, it will have broader consequences
● Hospital closures
● Overcrowded ERs
● Longer wait times for everyone
This will hurt all Minnesotans even if they still have health insurance.
62,000 +140,000=200,000 people in Minnesota who will lose Medicaid coverage/have to drop ACA plans due to premium increases due to Brad Finstad's votes
200,000 people losing insurance- That’s the population of
Rochester and Duluth combined
Having Brad Finstad in Congress isn't good for our health
Shutdown in 5 days.
Republicans went on vacation instead of working to prevent it.
ACA exchange insurance premiums are spiking in CD1: +$229/mo ($2,748/yr)
Nearly 90,000 Minnesotans hit with 54% higher premiums.
Call Brad Finstad and tell him we can't afford the Republican rise in insurance costs.
Democrats are the party of affordability for working families. Republicans are the party of Trump and his billionaire friends. Which side are you on?
Under Trump costs are soaring…
↑20% Coffee
↑16% Eggs
↑11% Beef
↑20% Affordable Care Act policy premiums next year
↑10% Electricity prices

August: only 22,000 jobs vs 75,000 expected.
Manufacturing jobs down 78,000 in 2025.
Young workers unemployment: 9.2%.
More workers than jobs available.
300,000 Black women have left the labor force.
Trump takes jobs
America is worse off with Trump.
● If a super-supporter claims otherwise, give them the facts.
● Rising prices, disappearing jobs, failed promises ‒ all evidence of economic failure.
Too extreme for the 1st Cd!

That’s the Republican record.
Congratulations to Jake Johnson on earning the DFL provisional endorsement for MN's 1st District seat in Congress. It's well-deserved. Let's back him and help him make this Brad Finstad's last term in Congress
There’s no longer any pretense this has anything to do with crime (there are cities or parts of cities in SC and Ohio that have higher crime rates than DC — send the troops there!). This is about establishing a precedent for Trump seizing control of the nation’s capital when he wants to.
