Flanagan: "When it comes to healthcare, I am a supporter of Medicare for All ... Michele Tafoya supports the Big Beautiful Bill, which is ensuring that 170,000 Minnesotans will lose their healthcare and premiums are going to double"

Guess how much the minimum wage would be today if it kept up with worker productivity over the years?

Cities dumped Flock cameras over surveillance abuse, then signed with Axon instead. Same tracking tech, different logo. Oh, and Trump bought up to $5 million in Axon stock 2 weeks before ICE gave it a $220M contract. Gross corruption. Video from @moreperfectunion.bsky.social #CostOfCorruption

Just voted in the MN primary. I still have the right to vote against big money interests and fascists, and by jove I'm going to exercise that right. I wish a safe and expedient voting experience for all my fellow MN voters. Democracy works best when we all show up to participate. #Vote

Back when I was a young man, CEOs made about 20 times the salary of their employees. Today a typical CEO makes over 280 times more. Here's what we can do about it.

Happy Independence Day. Our forefathers fought for a nation of equality, opportunity, and self determination. That history is binding, and unites more of us than it divides. We the people will make a better tomorrow, together. Sic Semper Tyrannis. Stay safe, stay free, and love readily. #Impeach47

Minnesotans, have you seen a *ton* of attack ads lately? Outside groups are using every legal loophole in the book to hide who’s funding a wave of attack ads against me. But whoever is paying for them thinks they can buy this Senate seat. They're wrong.

Congresswoman Ilhan Omar is a champion for Minnesota's working families. She's never backed down from a fight or a bully, and she's led with moral clarity and conviction since our days serving in the MN House. I'm proud to have earned her endorsement, and I'm ready to work with her in Washington.

For years, Hungary's Viktor Orban gerrymandered his opposition out of power. But in the end, all the dirty tricks in the world couldn't save him from sinking approval ratings and massive voter turnout. There's a lesson here for us.

What's happening with the redistricting in Tennessee has to be the most un-American shit I've seen. The GOP knows the only way to hold their grip on power is to diminish the power of people's vote by obliterating representation for people of color. This is a shameful chapter, authored by bigotry.

The Supreme Court just gutted the Voting Rights Act in its Callais ruling. They won’t stop until they’ve brought us back to the 1800’s, y’all. FIGHT BACK. P.S. — We can still flip the House in November. And we will. That’s the first step towards fixing this. Then we expand the court.

Hell yes! Shout it from the rooftops. A system that ties healthcare to employment does not foster liberty, only servitude. I wouldn't vote for anyone who doesn't see this not only as a goal, but as the absolute foundation of Democratic policy and a necessity to the American project and its people.

You know, it can be hard these days, but I really do believe in the promise of America. I don't believe our democracy ends with Trump. Time and time again, over the last year, people across this nation have denied, resisted, and shown their disapproval. He's losing, and flailing. Stay strong.

Proud to have stood by my neighbors, and fellow Minnesotans for today's #NoKings protest. This regime must be held accountable and removed from power. Power belongs solely to the people! Abolish ICE, and the 21st century police state. Restore peace to our communities and freedom to America.
