Virginia Giuffre's civil complaint named 17 men. Eight were given pseudonyms by the court. Seven of the pseudonyms were later unredacted. One remains sealed. His identity was never revealed in open court.

This would be bad for our democracy and local civic culture but, I must admit, a piece of me hopes he tries it.
Politics & Poll Tracker 📡@PollTracker2024

Daily Beast: Former Rep. George Santos (R-NY), who was expelled from Congress, floated the idea of running in 2028 to oust Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) “Think I can’t win? Try me, my life is an open book and I’ll take aim at any seat and primary someone out just to prove a point, the American people rather vote for someone who is open about their life and past and seeking truth than someone who is shady and full of secrets.” thedailybeast.com/disgraced-maga…

the delayed implementation by the jacob frey administration of the uptown safety ambassador program is a perfect example of the negatives of strong mayor government and how it can be used to punish council members who oppose the mayor, like aisha chughtai taylordahlin.com/f/uptown-safet…

@NebsGoodTakes @rustyrockets Always proclaiming tolerance while calling for violence, shame you're too much of a weakling to actually do the violence yourself.

Mike Levin
Mike Levin@MikeLevin·
Asked his thoughts on whether Ghislaine Maxwell, a convicted child sex trafficker serving 20 years, should be pardoned, Republican Oversight Chairman James Comer said, “A lot of people do.” Name them, Chairman. Say out loud which Republicans on your committee or otherwise think a woman who groomed 14 year old girls for Jeffrey Epstein should walk free. Comer’s other move is to stop holding real hearings so no one can be put under oath and no one can be held in contempt. Every member of Congress, every parent, every survivor deserves better than floating a pardon for a child sex trafficker and a committee hiding behind roundtables. This is not oversight. This is a disgrace.

MPD has failed our Indigenous women, they tried to lie about it, and now the truth finally gets out. We deserve better but I’m forever thankful to Jana and @TCC4Justice for not giving up.

The Minneapolis Police Department's response to the shooting of Davis Moturi by his neighbor and the death of Allison Lussier were marked by slow response times and inconsistent applications of law and policy, an after-action report found. kstp.com/kstp-news/top-…

We are endorsing @peggyflanagan for U.S. Senate! This is a moment that demands courage and leadership, and we see LT. Governor Flanagan as that courageous leader. She’ll take on the oligarchy, support a $17 minimum wage, and fight for Medicare For All. Go Peggy!

Doctors say that measles is one of the deadliest infectious diseases in the world. A guy who snorts cocaine off toilet seats and cuts penises off raccons says you'll be fine if you drink raw milk and bathe in raw sewage. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.

@reggiescollege You blame the City Council for the Mayor’s failure to implement the budget that the Council passed & the Mayor signed? The Council is responsible for its own decision-making. You can’t hold the Council accountable for unethical decision-making entirely w/in the Mayor’s purview.

@W_R_Emory But didn’t the people of Minneapolis vote for exactly this? A stronger mayoral office? Seems to me that the city council of the last 6 years dug its own grave on this one.

The thing I need the people of Mpls to understand is that Mayor Frey and MAK are increasingly ignoring the Council approved budget and spending money however they want. While the City Council’s Audit Committee lacks independent legal counsel, they have little recourse. (1/3)
Wedge LIVE!™@WedgeLIVE

The Uptown safety ambassadors were funded by the council in 2023. Chughtai & Cashman were banging their heads against the wall as the Frey admin refused to implement. Last month Barnette told Shaffer (Cashman successor) there's no money, it's not happening. Now it's happening.

@smburns My point being, FDR was far from infallible, and sometimes downright wrong. He was wrong about Japanese-Americans and he was wrong about public sector workers.

@smburns FDR also said: “Japanese immigrants are not capable of assimilation into the American population. Anyone who has traveled in the Far East knows that the mingling of Asiatic blood with European or American blood produces, in nine cases out of ten, the most unfortunate results.”

FDR is one of my heroes. I agree with his view that public sector unions are harmful. All levels of Minnesota government need major realignment of the workforce. When every $ spent on your job comes out of your neighbor’s pocket, performance and efficiency are essential.

The Mpls City Council needs independent legal counsel to seek judicial intervention to keep administration within the bounds of the legislature’s lawfully enacted budget. Mpls needs to restore a system of checks and balances in the wake of the strong mayor amendment. (3/3)

Currently, the attorney for the City Council is the Mayor-appointed City Attorney. The Mayor’s Attorney will never advise the Council to sue the Mayor for improperly enacting the budget. (2/3)
