Public hearing dates on the Minneapolis city budget have been announced. I advise aiming for the October dates. The Dec. 15 date is usually largely a formality. The cake is pretty much baked at that point. www.minneapolismn.gov/news/2026/se...

We had a great time celebrating our neighborhoods at Nicollet Open Streets! The rain couldn’t dampen our love for the small businesses and streets that make Lyndale and Kingfield the unique and vibrant places they are. Thank you to everyone who attended and made the event possible!

I’m against Trump’s illegal war. Michele Tafoya is for it. We are not the same.

Lisa Demuth supported Donald Trump's cuts to health care which paid for tax breaks for the wealthy. That's why Minnesotans like Tom can't afford for her to be our next Governor.

“Lisa Fights and Wins for the MAGA Agenda” — that’s how her own campaign describes her. That’s not what Minnesota needs in our next governor.

How does Lisa Demuth describe herself in campaign flyers? ✅Fights and wins for the MAGA agenda ✅Did over 20 interviews nationwide to help Trump get elected ✅Stood by Trump when he needed her She’s told Minnesotans what she fights for. It isn’t Minnesota.

I really appreciate everyone’s passion over city politics, but Frey being removed or resigning over disagreement regarding the management of MPD is a theory that simply is not grounded in reality. (This is, for some reason, a theory that I have seen floating around.)

Minneapolis added a layer of very highly paid leadership between mayor and police chief, yet the newest chief is able to say they inherited a financial mess. This is a $250 million per year organization. Shouldn't matter if prior chief was a reckless maniac.

🚨Take the Minneapolis 2050 survey. It will inform the goals and priorities of the city's next comprehensive plan. Deadline is September 30. www.reddit.com/r/CyclingMSP...

Cc: @wedge.live I’m not the bald guy in this pic. This is my opponent who supports ICE wearing masks and refuses to give an opinion on Flock cameras, mega datacenters, or gun safety!! We decided to increase our ad spend and I need to raise another $12k. Please help -> BradTabke.com/Donate

To make things more confusing, that's not Aaron Paul the meth sidekick, it's Aaron Paul the ICE apologist.

Sorry, my mistake. I'm told he's already gotten away with it. We gave him three terms.

An interim police chief is allowed to say things like "I inherited a mess." A three term mayor can't get away with that formulation. www.startribune.com/minneapolis-...

Data from the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension shows that crime is down. But the numbers only tell part of the story.

Last Thursday we attended a Community Open House to hear from community how they were processing this MPS "Transformation Plan." Thank you to the Longfellow Community Council and Seward Neighborhood Group for putting this on! Spending the night listening to our neighbors was powerful.

Weird, the Minneapolis City Council was right. I feel like the Frey administration was singing a different tune that their All of Mpls lackeys were amplifying, but mayor Isn‘t pit on the spot here. That’s only for progressive electeds. www.startribune.com/minneapolis-... (gift link)
