One of the absolute coolest days! New Midway library opened today and there were *so* many kids and families experiencing a truly accessible and fantastic library in our part of town. @mitrajunjalali.bsky.social Russ Stark @mollycoleman.bsky.social and I just drinking on this unbelievable moment.
Maia Tabion just cool, calm, and collected ✅ Killer press ✅ Great setup ✅ Perfect touch, finish @mnrevontulet.bsky.social @njemurray.bsky.social
Renovations officially underway! Rochelle’s least favorite part of the house is gone.
Ward 4 Councilmembers both fake (me) and real (her) out in force at SD66 today! @mollycoleman.bsky.social is the absolute real deal and Saint Paul is lucky to have her!
Senate District 66 has the best representation in Minnesota. Happy to spend a Saturday supporting @dfl.org leaders like @clareoumou.bsky.social @leighfinke.bsky.social @athenahollins.bsky.social and Garrison McMurtrey!
Please don’t park like this. I can easily step between the cars and get by but anyone with a walker or wheel chair or other mobility device can’t. Even if something doesn’t impact *you*, it might impact others. Just park on the street or wherever and make the neighborhood more livable.
Inexcusable that you didn't use a Wolves pic www.gettyimages.com/detail/news-...
Room absolutely bursting with people volunteering to help put on our SD66 DFL Convention. Two thirds of the people here have never even caucuses before (let alone volunteer). Party says it’s the largest caucus turnout for the DFL since Obama in 2008. People are *so damn engaged* right now!

SHORT VERSION: If you’re feeling safe enough, we absolutely need you to show up for DFL precinct caucuses on February 3rd to help elect people at every level of government who will fight this federal occupation of Minnesota. Find your caucus: dfl.org/caucus/ LONG VERSION 👇 1/
Wait when did Macaulay Culkin take the Captain America super serum…?
The Athletic came closest to describing an even vaguely realistic package, IMO
Congrats to @megl.bsky.social on her overwhelming win! Results: electionresults.sos.mn.gov/results/Inde...
Woke up. Did an hour of work. Felt paralyzed by a mixture of rage, sadness etc. Decided to do a walk by a long stay hotel in the neighborhood that is confirmed to have ICE to check up on neighbors. Better to take any action than none. We don’t mind the below zero temps. We just fucking hate ICE.
I would fan girl over her the same way I did when I met Rebecca Brunson during my “still had hair” era! And the second stylish counterpoint would never come for me like it did for you! Ha ha
Earlier this week I was elected Chair of the Saint Paul DFL. We demand the immediate release of Nekima Levy Armstrong, William Kelly, and two time St. Paul DFL endorsed Chauntyll Allen, as well as their respective charges being dropped. Full statement below:
And here’s what it would look like here. We all can invent a dumb drinking segment, CBS. bsky.app/profile/prem...
Wearing plain clothes. Man in sneakers, jeans, plaid button up with jean jacket over it. They’re out here cosplaying as me, basically.
ICE confirmed at Vandalia and University in St Paul. Silver Expedition with MN plates. Seemed to be focusing on the University Corridor.
