Maureen Down's article in today's NYT includes a picture of the Robert Redford & Paul Newman which is one of 3 pictures for me that define "being cool." The others are the Rat Pack shooting pool & Obama shooting a basketball. Please add a picture that shows what it means to you to be cool.

I spent the morning at the DFL booth at the Minnesota state fair proudly wearing my Angie Craig for US Senator t-shirt. Visitors to the booth talked about the senate race, the governor race, and the need to work hard to save democracy in this country. @repangiecraig.bsky.social

Several politicians, including Minnesota’s Democratic U.S. Sen. Tina Smith, blamed the increase in violence on Trump’s rhetoric.
But Pape said he believes there’s little partisan difference between the political violence being carried out.

I would like to suggest a simple but powerful way for Walz and the Legislature to honor Hortman’s contributions to our state: Rename the State Office Building as the Melissa and Mark Hortman Office Building. Please make this happen.
