Shocking stuff from the Washington Post:
Michele Tafoya publicly attacked a woman who experienced a miscarriage, calling her an “attention seeking drama queen” who “was not tough enough.”
“In an interview, Guerrero said Tafoya, whom she had never met, did not contact her before or after making the remarks.”

If your vote didn't count, Trump wouldn't be trying to stop you from voting.
If your vote didn't count, people wouldn't have given their lives for your freedom to vote.
Voting is incredibly powerful. So Minnesota, get out and vote.

New low for the Demuth camp. They put out an op-ed by Rep. Dawn Gillman in a futile attempt to discredit Nicole Smith-Holt about INSULIN affordability. Who do you trust more- Nicole Smith-Holt, or a state rep who wasn't even in the legislature when Alec's Law was passed?

1. Not sure when a new, on-the-record rape allegation against a sitting president isn’t considered news — especially considering Trump was found liable by a jury in a similar case — but it was ignored by most mainstream media outlets

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.

Every GOP member of the legislature voted no on banning assault weapons and high capacity magazines.
Lisa Demuth didn’t even let it come up for a vote in the House.
Elections matter. Let’s vote this fall for common sense gun safety.

Agents of the Trump administration shot and killed Renee Good and Alex Pretti on the streets of Minneapolis during Operation Metro Surge — and the Trump administration has still not released all the evidence surrounding their deaths. I’m fighting in federal court to get them to release it.
Alex Pretti’s parents’ plea today for transparency and justice moved me and should move every Minnesotan. I will not be deterred in my pursuit of the truth, justice, and accountability that the families of Alex Pretti and Renee Good deserve.

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.

Wow. What a turnout. In a town of 10,000, in a county Trump won by almost 30 points, nearly 1,000 came out in support of Abdul El-Sayed.
Alpena, MI, thanks very much.

Stealing from programs meant to feed children and support vulnerable Minnesotans is an attack on our communities and our public trust. I’m using every tool available to hold fraudsters accountable and recover taxpayer dollars.

Breaking: Donald Trump was "an active participant in Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse of young women in the mid-to-late 1990s,” according to a report issued today by Dems on the House Judiciary Committee. The report includes one new rape allegation against Trump, and calls for a special investigation of the Trump administration's cover-up of Epstein's crimes.

Keith Ellison: "This guy had the nerve to go on his social media thing and say he was gonna get 'reckoning and retribution against Minnesota.' Well I can't wait until November 3 so we can get reckoning and retribution on him."

This is the best article of why Lula was able to turn it around.
Populist FDR style “New Deal” policies in the country, the people of Brazil appreciate. This is the antidote to the right wing populism, oligarch/fascist fkry, consolidation of wealth and power, and use of hatred scapegoating the politically weak and marginalized people. This is to fascism what garlic is to vampires. FDR knew it and used it to beat back the rise of the Fascist NAZI movement in the USA in the 30s. It’s time for a New, New Deal.

Lula victory speech:
"We had to overcome foreign interference through digital platforms, which we will have to regulate.
We cannot have monstrously huge corporations earning millions & billions, paying no taxes to this country & trying to steer this country's election results."

Fox News is putting Nicki Minaj up telling people to vote red.
Let’s break that down.
Can Nicki Minaj vote? No.
She’s not a U.S. citizen.
Can Nicki Minaj’s husband vote? No, he’s a registered sex offender.
Can Nicki Minaj’s brother vote? No, he’s serving 25 years to life for child sexual assault.
She seems like the perfect spokesperson for MAGA republicans.

Pundits are saying that Latin America is destined to have a conservative wave. In a momentous election, the Brazilians have proved those pundits wrong. Congratulations Lula and congratulations Brazil!

Se ha detenido el fascismo en America Latina en Brasil.
El pueblo brasileño libre logró frenar la avalancha de los bots falsos y el sistema electoral con software público y bien cuidado por la gente evitó fraudes, se salva la justicia social en Brasil y el intento extranjero de quedarse con sus recursos naturales.
Muy bien Lula.
Este es un triunfo para la humanidad y una derrota estratégica para las fuerzas de la oscuridad.
