Wild to write this article and not mention attacks on trans people once.

GOP ads right now are all about attacking trans people. Over, and over, and over. I was a gay teen in 2004 watching the Bush campaign try to win on attacking gay marriage, but the resort to this hate drive in campaign ads feels so dialed up now. I can’t imagine being an lgbt kid watching tv today.

Like many Minnesotans, I was filmed by federal agents this winter. We must address the specific abuses of power that this administration has enabled *and* reckon with the broader surveillance state and culture we have allowed to flourish in the name of “safety.”

There are many things I could say about this, but the most important is this: No one in Minnesota is doing this work alone. Grateful for the folks on this cover and so many others. 💖

I think this should tell you everything you need to know in this race: Keith Ellison: "We will defend Minnesota. Period. Full stop." Ron Schutz "If they are truly hurting Minnesotans, we’ll sue the Trump administration." That "if" is doing a lot of work. www.mprnews.org/story/2026/1...

I cannot stress enough how much the current precarity so many of us are feeling is just a direct result of the ways in which resource hoarding has created artificial scarcity. This is true across our personal lives, orgs, institutions, and even government. Its fingerprints are on every budget gap.

Sending extra care to those who have experienced sexual violence and harassment with everything in the news locally & nationally this week. Check in with folks who you know may need it. Be gentle with others, knowing how many stories are unspoken. There is much to be done. But care first, always.

It's very difficult (and very thankless) to tell people not to panic when everything is in fact very awful, but panic is never a good organizing model, persuasion tactic, or personal outlook. It's good for content creation in an algorithmic feed but that's kind of it.

“If [HHS] can make the argument that anyone who supports trans rights is more likely to be politically violent and politically aggressive, then it makes it easier to demonize their opponents and to try and criminalize trans people.” www.npr.org/2026/09/30/n...

What's behind HHS claims that gender-affirming care 'may' radicalize
The report is the agency's latest effort to chip away at trust in established health care models for transgender people. Critics say it frames transgender identity as illegitimate or even dangerous.

Ok Lynx fam, the future is bright with Liv and Cheryl together. Each year we can be a top 4 contender. This season was fantastic. This crashout sucks. But I'm already pumped for Liv at Unrivaled and what that will do for her and May 2027. Los Lynx!!

These deportations are depraved and cruel; if this Court finds them lawful, it's both a reflection of *their* values and the need for deeper change. We *must* be committed to reshaping the Court and Constitution as we work forward.

There are real issues facing women and girls in sports and schools. Trans people aren’t one of them. Together, Minnesotans can continue to lift up and celebrate our athletes while digging in on the real work and investments needed to see them succeed–no matter who they are.

The MN Human Rights Act has provided clear and comprehensive protections for LGBTQ+ students and athletes since 1993. Title IX was passed to promote inclusion, not limit it. While some push a narrow vision of what it, Minnesota has shown the world that inclusion is not a zero-sum game.

It’s important for our community to know that Minnesota’s strong protections in education and on the playing field are based in our laws here in the state–not on any administration’s interpretation of Title IX. Our essential protections remain in place.

"The defense of the new BOP policy has been met with a brick wall over the past year and half from Lamberth, an 83-year-old Reagan appointee who first blocked the second Trump administration’s anti-trans prison efforts 15 days into Trump’s second term." A story you know well if you read Law Dork.

Lisa Demuth saying she's running for Governor to "respect the people of MN" - yeah nope - where was that respect when she refused to bring a gun control measure to a vote in the MN State House, instead lying to Annunciation parents. She will only do what politically serves her purposes, not MNs.

I cannot begin to describe how wrong these ads are, from the abject abuse of taxpayer dollars, to the dangerous “enemies” framing, to the antisemitic trope of “globalists.” “Final battle” is eliminationist language with a dark history. This is profoundly dangerous stuff.
