Hey all! Reminder that my debut feature film, Gleahan and the Knaves of Industry, is available in a bunch of places! An opportunistic jerk joins the quest of a delusional man who thinks he lives in a fantasy world. They team up and fight crime. Fun stuff! battlemagefilms.com/gleahan

Happy May Day! Thanks to Twin Ports neighbors showing up to DFL precinct caucuses, we now have the distinction of sending a bunch of Socialists to the Minnesota State DFL Convention! Now it's time to pass the hat and help our delegates make it down there. actionnetwork.org/fundraising/se…

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!

We're DFL volunteers fighting for the party Humphrey built: pragmatic, progressive, and built to govern. The DSA runs candidates on our ticket with a very different platform. We think voters should see it. thehumphreyproject.com

Hey @Culvers it’s been a year and you still have an outdated logo. I really hate to be that guy but can you please get it updated ASAP?

A party finding its way back from the wilderness can’t afford to waste its time removing the growing and energetic part of its base. We’re proud to stand with @MYDFL, the DFL Progressive Caucus, and the DFL Disability Caucus in working to build the party, not tearing it down.
Minnesota Young DFL@MYDFL

We, along with the DFL Progressive Caucus, @StonewallDFL, and the DFL Disability Caucus stand united in building and maintaining a Party that is welcoming and open to all. We are stronger when we come together and celebrate diversity of all kinds—including diversity of thought.

Pragmatic, progressive governance does not involve kicking out our allies. The attempt by some to make the big tent the size of a rain poncho is not where our energy should ever be. We should be bringing in more people to the DFL as we organize to win big this election year.

It’s actually wild to me that centrists who stand for nothing except the status quo can punch left all day and create all the divisive PACs they want, but if the left so much as sneezes in their direction, we are the bad guys. THEY are destroying the party. Centrism is a disease.

I know what the FL in DFL stands for. Our party is literally a coalition of the Democratic Party and the Farmer-Labor Party, a left third party. We win when we come together, we lose when people try to divide us. Humphrey's statue is near Floyd B. Olson's on the Capitol grounds.

@humphreympls Why do you people think Zohran Mamdani won in NYC by record numbers across the entire political spectrum? It was a good ground game, Actual Values, and real follow-through — hallmarks of the DSA. This whining only keeps us floundering for scraps against a laughably evil GOP.

@humphreympls Read the room: People are fed up with do-nothing centrists who would rather punch left with donors' money than organize around real issues. Childish. This red scare bullshit won't work again. If this is how you want to treat your coalition partners, you can fuck all the way off.

I don't know if @humphreympls has ever listened to a single goddamned stump speech or door-knock script, but this is LITERALLY EXACTLY WHAT DEMOCRATIC SOCIALISTS WANT. We're trying to HELP YOU DO THE THING YOU SAY YOU WANT!

After four consecutive quarters trailing our team’s fundraising, the Lt. Governor’s “best quarter to date” also comes up short compared to MAGA Michele Tafoya. We can’t afford to gamble with a Democratic Senate majority by nominating a candidate with questionable viability.

Nearly 40,000 people participated in DFL caucus night this year. They came with a wide range of viewpoints and opinions but chose to make a statement by engaging in our party. Since then, I’ve traveled across Minnesota and seen the energy in our organizing unit conventions firsthand. It’s real, and much of it is being shaped by the frustration coming out of Operation Metro Surge. DFLers are tired of the cruelty and the constant overreach of this administration. That’s what makes gimmicks like this so extremely disappointing and exhausting. This is the kind of stuff that makes people wary of engaging in any kind of partisan political activity. At a time of creeping fascism, we should be looking for ways to continue to expand our coalition, not shrink it. There will always be people in this party whose views, tactics, and even personalities don’t align with yours. And that’s okay. But if the whole history of our party has actually taught us anything, from 1968 to 2024, it’s that we win when we do everything in our power to bring voices to the table and lose when we decide to shut voices out. Anything less misses the moment we’re in. We can and should do better — the question is: will we?

@sam_schulie_1 This is exactly what Republicans want: more infighting that cuts our movement down. Instead of whining about progressive socialist wins, you could instead… y’know, get on board with this movement we’re building. Oh wait, your donor-class buddies wouldn’t like that, would they?
