When I took office, the pandemic was raging and the economy was reeling. From Day One, I was determined to not only deliver economic relief but to invest in America. We passed legislation to rebuild our infrastructure, build a clean energy economy, and bring manufacturing back to the United States after decades of offshoring.

It is literally impossible for a Black woman to be the first Black woman DA in CA history, first Black AG in Cali history, 2nd Black woman US Senator in history, and first Black VP in history while being a mediocre candidate. You don’t have a clue what you’re talking about.

Remember 5 months ago when Finland quietly started vaccinating their population, even without having any #H5N1 cases?

#FaithNotHate is just the message I need to hear and maybe you do too. Thank you to our faith leaders for standing up together this election season and for sharing a vision of working together for the common good for years to come. #WeMakeOurFutureMN

Our future includes all of us. Yet, throughout this election we’ve seen some truly hateful messages targeting immigrants. Hundreds of MN faith leaders have come together to send a powerful message condemning this harmful rhetoric. Read and share. faithinmn.org/clergy-open-le…

🧵 IT’S OFFICIAL: We’ve completed over 3,000 shifts talking to voters about keeping the DFL trifecta and electing people-centered leaders in our communities. We’ve finished over 400 GOTV shifts in the last four days, and overall, we’ve knocked more than 112,000 doors. (1/2)

Minnesotans are stronger together. That’s why opponents of our democracy try to create division based on any characteristics that they can weaponize. But Minnesotans aren’t fooled by these divisive messages; we’re voting so every Minnesotan’s voice is heard.

Full house in Northfield for the ⁦@MinnesotaDFL⁩ GOTV rally with Senator ⁦@amyklobuchar⁩, ⁦@keithellison⁩ and ⁦@Pursell4MNHouse⁩. Ready to work these last 5 days to fight for the future we deserve. #voteblue #wemakethefuture ⁦@faithinmnaction⁩

I asked MAGA “How much do you think undocumented immigrants pay in taxes?” They all answered ZERO. I explained that in 2022 undocumented immigrants paid $95 billion into Social Security and Medicare even though they don’t qualify for either.

“I was confused, to be honest. I was born and raised in Woodbridge, Virginia, so, you’ve got everything about me and now you’re saying that I’m an alien. Why would you let me vote before and not now?”

Despair over Gaza has caused some to drop out, or even turn to the MAGA movement. There’s a better way. Opinion by Abdullahi Kahiye sahanjournal.com/opinion/minnes…

The unemployment rate is currently about 4.1%, the lowest since 1968. Inflation is low, at 2.2%. GDP growth is the best in the world. The financial markets are soaring, hitting 71 record highs this year. Biden cut deficit by one third. America doesn't need to be great again. America is great!

We learned this in Minnesota and hope we can share this nationally with our #Fellow49 states—our goal is to improve lives. @minnesota_faith @WMOFmn

THIS IS POWERFUL: For the first time in history, an American President has formally apologized for the horrible abuse of Native Americans in boarding schools. Thank you, Mr. President! 🙏♥️

Did you see this moment from Tyler Perry’s speech last night? Probably one of the greatest mic drops in American history. 🎤🔥

Ex-Trump aides emerge to back John Kelly’s harsh warnings - POLITICO politico.com/news/2024/10/2…

By deciding not to editorialize, @washingtonpost and @latimes are violating rule 1 of Timothy Snyder's warnings "On Tyranny." 1. Do not obey in advance. Most of the power of authoritarianism is freely given. In times like these, individuals think ahead about what a more repressive government will want, and then offer themselves without being asked. A citizen who adapts in this way is teaching power what it can do.

I just spoke with a friend who, like so many of us, is heartbroken over the tragedy in Gaza and Lebanon. My friend also told me that he does not know who he will vote for as a result. Here is what I said to him. Take a listen.

🧵 These Faith in Minnesota Action leaders have been working hard to elect @drobasaurus to House District 3A. Why? Because we all need affordable healthcare, clean water, and a leader who wants to deliver real solutions for rural Minnesotans. 🩺💧🗳️ (1/2)

🎉 Abdullahi became a U.S. citizen this year, and voted in his first-ever election this week. He voted early as he’ll be busy serving his community as an election judge on November 5th. Make your plan to #BeAVoter with Abdullahi at mnvotes.org! ✅
