In my day parents mailed newspaper clippings with Cautionary Tales and Here’s What That Classmate’s Doing but now the youth are being tortured with my shitposts. This is some sort of Dad Convergence.

Just met a very excited fan on Hennepin Ave who has nailed my demographic: "My dad's one of your biggest fans. You and David Brauer. He lives in Kingfield. He's constantly sending me bluesky posts from you and David Brauer in the family group chat. That and Onion articles."

Set aside any political calculus other than to enhance everyone’s safety through prohibiting the sale/ownership of military-style assault weapons and high-capacity magazines. End the singular American crisis.

To Anyone in Elected Office:
You were elected to take action, not to take up space. Our children are being killed while praying in Church. This is the time to take action, not be complacent. This is the time to take Bold Action. Be Courageous and Meet the Moment. Save our kids!

Can the Mpls DFL abdicate from the State DFL? Just sayin….. Can we get a divorce?

Jill Davis @jdavismpls.bsky.social · Aug 22

Chair Carlbon, there can be no unity in the MPLS DFL as long as hundreds of people who attended the City DFL Convention were disenfranchised. We gave up our Saturday to work for an endorsement. While it wasn’t a smooth process, it was a fair and transparent process.

I’m disgusted by the Mn. DFL Constitution, Bylaws, & Rules Committee overturning the endorsement of Omar Fateh. This decision expands the chasm that exists between the left/moderate DFL & the conservative/monied “DFL”ers

They can take away the DFL endorsement, but they can’t take away *us*. Time to get involved ON THE DOORS to turn out the vote where you live. I’m hosting a fundraiser in Ward 1 for @elliottpayne.org this Monday come by and learn how to get involved in Ward 1. We can still win if we out-work them.

Let’s be clear, there would not be a DFL Gov, Secretary of State, Attorney General, Auditor, or Senators WITHOUT the DFL voters in Minneapolis. Also many of us progressive lefty DFL’ers help keep the DFL alive. Piss us off and there will be consequences.

I’m sure crime watch is mistaking target field fireworks for gunshots and Steve Minn is somewhere texting people that it’s City Council’s fault

What's this? A clear-headed analysis of the convention from a candidate? One that honors the results, the work of the candidate who won, AND the work of the delegates. One that moves us forward into the work of doorknocking and campaigning? Here for it, & I am here for @dewayneforminneapolis.com.

DeWayne Davis @dewayneforminneapolis.com · Jul 22

Since Saturday’s convention, many people have reached out to ask if I will be challenging the DFL endorsement. I want to be clear: I will not challenge the endorsement and will not collaborate with those who are challenging the endorsement.

Let's clear just ONE thing up about the Minneapolis DFL convention. This is an important photo taken at 9:40pm with the floor locked, in which @beukema.bsky.social counts 331. It's about 2/3 of the room, I'm off camera left where there are 100+ more. ANY claim there wasn't a quorum is a damn lie.
