Keith Ellison: "Donald Trump demanded we turn on our Somali neighbors, and we said 'no way, never!' He demanded that we turn on our immigrant and refugee neighbors, and we say, 'no way, never!' He demanded that we turn on our trans neighbors, and we said 'absolutely not' ... tonight, we showed up for each other again."

We've traveled every corner of this state because I believe every Minnesotan, no matter where they call home, deserves the chance to afford a good life. Today, we're bringing that fight across the finish line.

For every person who showed up, every neighbor who stood beside a neighbor, and everyone who refused to give up on the place we call home. Whatever comes next, I know what we're made of. And I'm so proud to have been part of it.
This is our home. And our future is still ours to write. Let’s make it count. Vote.

I was proud to work alongside President @BarackObama to expand healthcare access, and I'm proud to have his support in my campaign. So Minnesota, you heard President Obama - get out and vote on or before November 3. Head to iwillvote.com to make a plan.

The same facility offered to Minnesota for $75 million, Trump shells out $495 million for? This mess in Appleton isn't getting by me. I'm demanding that Congress investigate this corrupt misuse of your tax dollars. Enough is enough.

A private prison company offered Minnesota an empty prison for 75 million dollars. The state said no. Then Trump’s administration paid the same company almost 500 million for it. The prison has sat empty in Appleton, Minnesota since 2010. Last year CoreCivic emailed the state and offered to sell it for 75 million, upgrades included. Minnesota passed. Fifteen months later, Homeland Security bought it for an ICE detention center at 495.6 million. How could this be? You guessed it. CoreCivic gave half a million dollars to Trump’s inaugural committee. And it still gets paid about 75 million a year to run the place. Republicans love talking about fraud in Minnesota. JD Vance says his task force is all over it. So where are they on this one? I break it all down in today’s show (link in reply).

Donald Trump is the most corrupt president in living memory, and even for him, this is shocking. Congress must investigate this corrupt $400+ million overpayment to a Trump donor immediately.
"New records obtained by KARE 11 show the company that owned a vacant private prison in Appleton, Minnesota offered to sell it to the state in 2025 for $75 million. One year later, the Trump administration agreed to use taxpayer funds to buy the same abandoned prison from CoreCivic, Inc., for $495.6 million. The price difference, $420 million, is more than taxpayers are estimated to have lost in Minnesota’s much-publicized Feeding Our Future fraud scandal." kare11.com/article/news/inve…

They want to throw the Constitution out of the ring. We say NOT ON OUR WATCH. Governor Jesse Ventura doesn't care about left vs right, he cares about right vs wrong. I'm proud to have Jesse on our team. Jesse knows that when they come for our rights and freedoms, I don't tap out.

I'm standing up to Trump because he's breaking the law and harming the people of Minnesota. And because, to be frank, it pisses me off to see someone trying to bully Minnesotans.

NEW: Republican Ron Schutz is set to THROW OUT an ongoing lawsuit from the state of Minnesota against Glock, if elected. This move would allow Glock to continue selling handguns that can easily be modified into illegal machine guns.

Gun safety is on the ballot. Glock knows their pistols can easily be converted into illegal machine guns, yet they refuse to change their design, so I'm suing them. Converted Glocks pose a serious danger to the people of Minnesota and especially to law enforcement. My opponent, Ron Schutz, would end that lawsuit and make Minnesota less safe if he wins.
