The Right is on a full-scale assault on the Constitution. The Left is telling people to call their representatives. DEM Establishment: "We're mad at the Left!" Hence, Trump 2.0 www.axios.com/2025/02/12/d...

It was hubris to believe western ideas of open societies governed by laws would inevitably prevail - the Russian model of oligarchic autocracy is clearly winning.

After the homophobic attacks by Rev. McAffee, it's time we start referring to him ONLY as: Bigot McAffee

As the forces of hatred are on the march, my promise is this: Our trans neighbors will continue to be safe, protected, and welcome in Minnesota.
