Just a note about the Minneapolis shooter’s writings - that’s not Russian. It’s the Cyrillic alphabet but 99.9% of the words are English. The shooter was basically using the Cyrillic alphabet as a code to make it harder to read.

To whomever in the Minneapolis DFL orchestrated this mailing with this plausibly deniable timing: your passive aggression toward the MN DFL is on point!

Oh that’s right, the JoeRad ghoul squad just shed its legal skin and emerged in a superficially-separate form ready to gobble up another round of annual-maximum suburban developer checks so they can get back to paying someone to send this dude assorted dumb shit to repost.
My opponent endorsed a Mayoral candidate with views that are out of touch with NE Minneapolis. Based on my conversations with Ward 1 residents, they want common sense solutions to housing, transportation & public safety issues.

Added advantage of @omarfatehmn.com ‘s Minneapolis DFL endorsement on Saturday is that I can add all of the trolls coming out on Bluesky to my block list!

As I was leaving Target Center to catch my flight, a Frey staffer was begging me not to leave. Lol told him I he didn’t want me to stick around… Minneapolis DFL Convention

Judging from the audience noise during candidate speeches, my guess is that Frey will not be able to make it to 60% today.

My flight leaves at 7:50 tonight. What’s the over/under on the number of votes I’ll be able to cast in the mayoral endorsement race at the Minneapolis DFL convention before I have to leave? (I am already packed but have to stop by home to change and pick up my bags.)

After 30 minutes in the cursed A-C line, registration table finally comes into view. It’s 10:43 and we aren’t starting “just yet,” we’re told. “The end is near.” And seating assignment on my badge is not consistent with the signs on chairs. Sergeant at Arms said to follow the badge. Minneapolis DFL

Back to work today, but we had an amazing 6 days in the BWCAW. The moose calf is just days old.

Look what showed up in my work email junk folder today! I have never given the DFL my work email. (I work for a 501(c)(3) so political emails are problematic.) So what mailing list did Conrad buy for his new #Minneapolis Park Board campaign? #Mpls

Wondering if @kub.bsky.social or @wedge.live know whether other ward conventions this year have approved rules allowing an “emergency convention” to endorse after the convention loses quorum?

Okay, @kub.bsky.social , what’s the over under on when we get out of Las Estrellas today? I have trays of plants from the Friends School Plant Sale that I would love to get in the ground
Follow @kub.bsky.social for Ward 3 coverage tomorrow. Everyone else will be at Ward 7.

Today is the day! Day 1 of Minnesota’s Friends School Plant Sale! I’m a novice and I am very excited: shopping list? Check! Trays? Check! Dolly? Not quite yet - need to track down the building caretaker to figure out where it is. Heading out soon to wait in line for a wristband. Doors open at 9!

At long last, Nigel earned his NW2! One of only 10 dogs to qualify, and he earned a P in containers, which had a sub-50% pass rate. #NWAddicts #NACSWAddicts #DogsofBlueSky

Wow never before have I encountered such rudeness at a Minneapolis DFL precinct caucus! Mayoral race folks are tense, especially supporters of the incumbent.
