Absolutely shameful. This area can't afford to lose any more good union jobs.

They want to create a world of intimidation, fear, and hate.

We want to create a world of acceptance, hope, and love.

Ask yourself: which of those worlds do you want to live in?

Today was a fantastic showcase of solidarity with working people in Downtown Brainerd. Thanks to everyone who came out and showed their support!

The DFL just lost a winnable race because they shoehorned in a moderate candidate rather than let the voters actually decide on their candidate.

Hope you're all happy with the results.

Yesterday's energy was incredible. You could feel it everywhere you looked.

But today shows that energy means nothing if it can't be harnessed and directed towards meaningful change.

The real work begins now.

It's nice when both sides can agree on something!

In all seriousness, Justin Eichorn needs to go. The residents of Senate District 6 deserve someone who'll actually represent their interests instead of doing...well, whatever this is.

Four years ago today, Brainerd Lakes Area DSA held its first public meeting.

And in those four years, we've been able to make a tremendous impact, fighting to make our communities better.

Here's to another four years, comrades.

...You're kidding, right?

All this instead of just scheduling a special election?

Let the residents of Brainerd decide who represents them.

Can't wait for right-wingers to start flooding this app and quickly realize that they can't get away with the same stuff Musk lets run rampant on Twitter.

It's gonna be great.
