Medicare for All - "That's socialism!"
Social Security - "That's socialism!"
Debt free education - "That's socialism!"
Universal childcare - "That's socialism!"
$1 billion per day on a war in the Middle East that no one wants, while millions of people at home struggle.
"That's just how it is."

Since 1994, immigrants have paid more in taxes than they receive in benefits every year.
Do not believe the lies you hear about immigrants.
They are good for society and the economy.
While one would like to buy into Rubio’s pearl clutching, it’s worth noting that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has openly admitted to setting aside the rules of engagement—who’s to say he doesn’t have the same attitude toward international law? trib.al/erGMwRo
Excellent date/time/place map of Democratic conventions happening today around #MN and the #TwinCities. Today/now (green now, shift to red weeks-months out), #SD53 appears the spotlight #GreenNewDeal leader Dan Lund vs. capitulating class Paul Cumings. #OurRevolution www.google.com/maps/d/viewe...
Priorities.
As primary season kicks off today in North Carolina and Texas, some Democrats claim the party needs to "move to the center" to win in November.
Hogwash.
Democrats can't repeat the same failed playbook of the last 50 years. It's time for them to grow a spine.
Donald Trump has said almost nothing to justify going to war against Iran. The real reason may be something he dare not speak of.

For the record, you an get Ilhan hugs and direct conversation/issue time at our #DFL SD conventions that cover #MNCD5 #CD5MN.

@ilhanmn.bsky.social
Completely disgusting behavior, especially when @ilhanmn.bsky.social is one of the most vocal leaders in the nation fighting against the Trump administration.

It’s hard enough for families to find high-quality, affordable child care — and Donald Trump’s cruel immigration agenda is making it even worse.
traffic control aren’t even enforcing parking regulations against private businesses parking vehicles on a sidewalk currently because it’s within 2 blocks of the alex pretti memorial so color me skeptical they’d do anything against ICE
Best photo/image of Trump ever. He can't even complain about being redacted now. However, is your purpose to brainstorm ideas to get more Republicans elected when Trump will immediately resume being Donald and Republicans his lapdogs, policy writers, and fake news promoters post election?
"There are zero states that fully adopt the federal tax rules in their own codes.
When state lawmakers are doing their job well, they sit down and give each item careful consideration about whether it makes sense in their own code or not.”

Happy 2026 Precinct Caucus night, Minnesota!
I’m proud to have designed these caucus literature pieces for my friends representing and serving South Minneapolis in the Minnesota State Legislature:
Sen. @omarfatehmn.com, SD62
Sen. @zaynabmmohamed.bsky.social, SD63
Rep. @anquam62b.bsky.social, HD62B
Your Senate District gets to send twice as many resolutions to state #DFL as their number of delegates & no limits on the number each precinct caucus or person can submit. Remind your neighbors to our West in @sd50dfl.bsky.social our North in @sd63dfl.bsky.social and NE in @sd64.bsky.social
Yet another reason to join your precinct caucus tomorrow evening and make sure it isn't settling for the least Democratic Democrats and resolutions. #DFL #SD51MN #CD3MN #CD5MN #MNleg
Trump has turned our government into a personal ATM — funneling public money, contracts, and favors to his billionaire friends while we pay the price. Congress must pass @reprashida.govpeeps.us resolution to end their handouts and invest in public needs. @theguardian.com : tinyurl.com/3dbfkany
Billionaires are hoarding more wealth than half the country combined — using it to rig our politics against us.
Backed by Our Revolution, the Defund the Oligarchs resolution cuts to the core of oligarch power: ending their subsidies and pay-to-play schemes.

She would be the best or nearly the best option for Minnesota #DFL Governor if we can get her to run. Easy, unifying win for a #NoFascists #NoOligarchy #HealthCareForAll #GreenNewDeal leader of #MNleg.
6 days and dropping to the 2026 #DFL precinct caucuses on Tuesday Feb. 3 at 7pm. Moved or not sure what Senate District you're in? Find your caucus location using the official Minnesota Secretary of State tool at caucusfinder.sos.mn.gov. #MNleg #VoteProgressive #NoFascists
1 way to keep the Doomsday Clock from advancing further is to vote early & often by attending your local #DFL precinct caucus in 7.5 days, next Tuesday here in #SD51MN and every other district in Minnesota. We have a new #MNleg Senator to endorse & a new Governor. Being a delegate gives you a vote.
