The Mother Emanuel AME Church audience rises into a thunderous standing ovation as President Biden concludes his remarks emphasizing the historic stakes of the 2024 election

@JenDeJournett @darwinforsyth @andybrehm @mngop I’m ok disagreeing. Denouncing the weirdos and making sure they aren’t one of the core factions of the @mngop is not complicated. Trying to appease those folks and appeal to a statewide electorate is, and that’s why the @mngop is no longer a serious or viable statewide party.

[John Branstad @JohnBranstad]

@JenDeJournett @darwinforsyth @andybrehm @mngop Stop trying to ‘both sides’ this. The @mngop has made it clear they no longer value the sort of Republicans you described. We might wish that weren’t the case, but the failure to admit that problem and actively work against it has kept the @mngop as a sub-50% statewide party.

[John Branstad @JohnBranstad]

@JenDeJournett @darwinforsyth @andybrehm @mngop Royce White is an endorsed @mngop candidate. Emmer had to pay off @mngop endorsed Tayler Rahm to drop out. The vast majority of @mngop members support Trump, which would be abhorrent to the sort of Republicans you describe. Election deniers and conspiracy theorists abound. #truth

[John Branstad @JohnBranstad]

@JenDeJournett @darwinforsyth @andybrehm Newsflash Jen - “common sense, traditional run of the mill … middle of the Road” Republicans are no longer welcome in the @mngop which is why there are basically none left. The party left them, they didn’t leave the party.

I spy @jackconsidineMN up front and even @RepLFrederick if you look close! What a night!!!

.@Tim_Walz - you are going to be able to hear us in Chicago from Mankato West High School. 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 @KamalaHarris @KamalaHQ @DNC @MinnesotaDFL @EducationMN @MNAFLCIO @AFLCIO @CD1DFL

@JP_UnionMan You and me both! Saw a few shots of fellow Mankatoan @NickAFrentz in the MN crew!

@TheSotaSwede It’s the litter box lies all over again…

[John Branstad @JohnBranstad]

@maxnesterak @mbrodkorb @BBBreakPod And how has that messaging done for the @mngop in statewide elections? Trump will max out around 46%, at best, with that messaging just like nearly every @mngop statewide candidate for the last 15+ years. The messaging is spot on for the @mngop but it’s not a *winning* message.

[John Branstad @JohnBranstad]

Newsflash @paulgazelka - the @mngop is definitely NOT “better than this”. You might wish they were; I do to! But they show their true colors, time and time again in their messaging, their endorsed candidates, and their tweets like the one you commented on. It’s a shame.

[Paul Gazelka @paulgazelka]

We are better than this. I lost a lot of money serving in government. Some monetize their legislative experience, many don’t.

@kpottermn @thriftytraveler Thanks so much!

[John Branstad @JohnBranstad]

Hey @kpottermn and @thriftytraveler - is there an easy way to find *all* the Delta int’l nonstops from MSP and their scheduled days? Think about a winter or spring getaway, but very open. For example, I know Delta added more SXM, SJU, GCM but is there a full calendar anywhere?

[John Branstad @JohnBranstad]

@mbrodkorb Chalk up another Trump lie: "I lose Minnesota, I'm never coming back — I don't care."

[FactPost @factpostnews]

Trump just now: "I lose Minnesota, I'm never coming back — I don't care."

You hear that Minnesota? 👉 https://t.co/OWZm4tNNTh

@CodyAbbott86 @johnkriesel Not true: https://t.co/szA6tjshVb

@NWSTwinCities Thanks!

[John Branstad @JohnBranstad]

Hey @NWSTwinCities - Any idea when the Mankato Regional Airport (KMKT) weather reporting station will be back online? #mnwx

[South Central MN Weather Alerts @SoCentralMNWx]

@NWSTwinCities one of our ham radio club members mentioned that the Janesville NWS radio site doesn't say the temp. Is that related to the issues at the Mankato airport?https://t.co/49LqYW0IR0

[John Branstad @JohnBranstad]

@EddyElfenbein Biggest negative intraday reversal in over a year, dating back to March 22, 2023.

There was a larger reversal to the positive on Oct 6. That one was more fun!

[John Branstad @JohnBranstad]

@mspairport Thanks!

[John Branstad @JohnBranstad]

Hey @mspairport - Does the Quick Ride Ramp offer covered parking options?

[John Branstad @JohnBranstad]

Hey @NWSTwinCities - the Mankato Regional Airport (KMKT) weather reporting station has been unavailable for several days. Is there any ETA you could share on when this will be back online? Is there a different group I should ask instead? Thanks much! #mnwx
