Honestly this is the first time in history a Democrat has done a West Wing style public debate demolition of a conservative and it actually worked like on TV. Abdul has got The Gift

Cannot overstate how anathema it is to everything we are supposed to stand for that the president is trying to denaturalize his political enemy. It’s unamerican, it’s dictatorial, and it deserves to be rebuked as vehemently as possible.

Many on the left suspected this was the case, but it’s still wild to see the WSJ confirm it. Needless to say, stripping the citizenship of opposition elected officials is really, really far down the road to fascism.

Next DFL trifecta - imagine if we got some permitting/met council reform and a funding boost. Would be REAL NICE if cut and cover tunnel ROW and elevated ROW was actually considered and plausible in urban areas instead of only in suburbs and parkland. 😔

Exceptional work by @s0phistry that finally factors population in an instantly understandable way. All media should adopt this format for political maps. I'm talking to you @MSNOWNews @CNN – at Lauderdale, MN

Funny how the anti traffic camera people always seem to be reckless behind the wheel. Pay your tickets and start following the rules of the road. It isn’t actually that hard.

Asked the tsa agent earlier, “is it a laptop out of the bag day” and he said, “it’s always a laptop out of the bag day” and I replied, “that is simply not true” and then he rolled his eyes and walked away

Again, citizens are supposed to believe Trump has immunity from breaking the law and can unilaterally take funds to build monuments to himself that Congress didn’t intend for that purpose, but that Biden couldn’t even cancel some student loans? Banana republic stuff.

This is a bleak July jobs report: -23,000 jobs lost in July. (Losses occurred in retail, finance, hospitality, local gov't education) -264,000 people leave the labor force -Wage growth falls to 3.2% = lowest in 5 years (and totally wiped out by inflation right now) ***Lowest labor force participation rate since February 2021*** The Fed's job just got a lot harder. The labor market is stalling again. Many industries shedding jobs or flat.

Donald Trump has earned more money in his first and second year, in his second term as president, than in the previous 60 years of his life, per Bloomberg.

Hotels are almost always better than Airbnbs, but they cater poorly to a reasonably common use case of 'a group of friends (including their spouses/children) wants to stay together, share meals and hang out in common spaces.'

Hotels are infinitely better than Airbnbs. They’re cheaper. No chores, no cleaning fees, no insane surprise rules, no mystery stains, and no host pretending to be your new best friend. Just check in, sleep, and leave. The way it should be.

The same "Never Comply" crowd that won't change their thermostat, wear a mask, or use a paper straw turns into "comply or die" the second masked federal agents start gunning down people on American streets. Don't let them gaslight you into thinking they stand for liberty.

To date, immigration officials have shot and killed 11 people, including two Minnesotans. Across the country, they operate with no respect for human life, the law, or consequences. There's no reforming this agency. Rip it apart.

brad tabke is up for reelection this fall and he needs support from DFLers after winning his seat last time by only 14 votes - and with the work he did during operation metro surge, would not be surprised to see republicans coming out for his opponent
