Elon Musk is a vengeful sack of selfish-serving crap. Four months ago, USAID Inspector General Paul Martin told Congress the agency was examining its relationship with Musk's Starlink over several serious issues. First thing Musk/Trump presidency does? Fire IG Martin, slander USAID and close it.

Hey everyone, it’s a Coup. Name it for what it is. We have a duty to disobey orders that violate law. If the courts say don’t do it, that’s a pretty good indication. Most of us are not being asked to violate law, some are (e.g., financial assistance, Civil Rights and EEO laws). #Resist.

The former Secretaries are right! The unprecedented access to Treasury’s payment systems by an unwarranted official and a rogue band of recent college grades undermines Congress’ power of the purse and the full faith and credit of the U.S. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/10/o...

ICYMI: I introduced the Nobody Elected Elon Musk Act last Friday. This bill would ensure that Elon Musk and DOGE Special Employees will be held accountable for their reckless and illegal actions. The American people should not be left to foot the bill.

It’s Super Bowl Sunday and Donald Trump has done pretty much nothing to lower your grocery costs. The President needs to buckle down and deliver on his promises.

Honored to receive an award from the Minnesota Police and Peace Officers Association for my work to ensure officers, firefighters, and others get the Social Security payments they’ve earned. They put everything on the line for us—and we should have their backs.

JD Vance - If you believe any of the multiple federal courts that have ruled against you so far are exceeding their statutory or Constitutional authority, your recourse is to appeal. You don’t get to rage-quit the Republic just because you are losing. That’s tyranny.

Extreme MAGA Republicans spent last year promising to lower costs. And lying about their connection to Project 2025. They have spent this year implementing the extreme Project 2025 agenda. And haven’t done a damn thing to lower the high cost of living.

At least $12 trillion from global oligarchs is hidden offshore in secret tax havens worldwide. And it is headquartered right here in the USA. Instead of cutting lifesaving programs like the VA, Medicaid, and food stamps, we should be cracking down on tax havens for the ultra-rich.

Cuts to NIH funding by the Trump Administration will delay life-saving treatments and undermine our ability to combat diseases like cancer and heart disease. This is a short-sighted decision that will impact lives and life-saving research across the country, including in Minnesota.
