We’re honoring Jason Fossum today, Chief of Staff to the Minnesota Senate Republican Caucus.

Jason will be remembered as a dedicated public servant, brother, and uncle who committed his life to the betterment of those around him and to the improvement of Minnesota.

Pls don't overreact to the SCOTUS SAVE database decision

Page 6 of the decision makes clear that we are in the 90 day statutory window when mass changes can't be made to voter lists!

It's a shit decision for the reasons the 3 dissenters say but we can deal w/it. More to come..

In Columbia Heights, Minnesota, Springfield MO PD accessed their Flock data in 2025 more than almost any other agency, before Heights cut off data sharing with out of state agencies, and then ended their Flock contract.

CNN pulled a clip of Michele Tafoya recently saying "I've never said I was embarrassed to be from Minnesota" and then displays an unearthed and deleted tweet of her saying "I am embarrassed to be from Minnesota" 🥴

RACE RATING CHANGE: Texas U.S. Senate

🟡 Tossup → 🔵 Tilt D

Our model gives James Talarico (D) a 55% chance of defeating Ken Paxton (R). Talarico has consistently led in polling, but his advantage remains within the margin of error, and the race is still extremely close.

BREAKING: Jimmy Kimmel announces his interview with Texas Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico will NOT air on ABC tomorrow, saying Trump’s FCC has threatened him, his show, ABC, its affiliates, and local stations over “simple traditional editorial decisions” and guest bookings.

Kimmel says the full interview will instead be posted to YouTube: “In the America we live in right now, that is the best that we can do until November.”

We are witnessing an assault here and the police must investigate.

The protester has a right to heckle, whether you or I agree or disagree with the views or approve or disapprove of the tactic.

But it is against the law to physically attack people.

[sam🌻 @casadeesamitus]

its not "both sides btw" republicans have stolen 2x districts worth of state maps

[sam🌻 @casadeesamitus]

it should never be ignored how much R's will benefit from their illegal gerrymanders this year. if all 50 states adopted fair maps, dems would be on track for an historic, 254 seat house majority (just short of their 2008 high watermark)
