(Also, obviously I am tremendously lucky that I was able to buy a house and stay within the area I had been living!)

I made the jump from W10 renter to W10 homeowner last year and it was SLIM pickins!

"the best rent control is a thirty year mortgage" is a hell of a thing to say in a ward that's majority renter.

if i could buy a house, i wouldn't need rent stabilization, LYDIA.

Yeah she's giving big "Make Uptown Great Again" vibes which sets off all my alarm bells.

10 trees on Lake Street will surely offset the environmental destruction of a data center!

Hell yeah Ward 10 had the most questions 💪🏻
christinecheney.bsky.social
She called out Lydia saying that she knows business owners (Vintage Store and Iron Pub) and that what they told her is not what Lydia is sharing. They aren't leaving for safety, they can't afford it.

She specifically said "houses" too. "Get out of your houses...and take our neighborhood back [from those poor renters who vastly outnumber us!]" (I'm inferring)

Millard: says it’s time for new leadership. Says things will continue to get worse under Aisha. Says people need to “take our neighborhood back.”

Businesses AREN'T constituents though??? Stakeholders, sure. But not constituents.

Boo, sounds like my question didn't make the cut.

When will they ask my question😤 (spoiler, its about buses)

Her PAC cohorts also opposing the urban mall, but Lake Street needs trees I guess.

(The greenway is literally a block from lake street?????)

Expand on greenshare program.

Lydia is bringing up tariffs but also saying we need to build. That math seems off to me.

Thank you for liveposting, Dex!
christinecheney.bsky.social
This made me laugh. How are you supposed to answer this of you are like Dex and she didn't answer? How is that distinguishable from the people who haven't reached out?

She’s just attacking Aisha. Asks the audience if she’s (Lydia) been responsive to our Qs. She hasn’t been to mine.

Where do they think DSAers come from if not Democrats who are frustrated with Democratic leadership?

I grew up in a union household, been a fairly centrist democrat my whole life. Started learning about socialism over the pandemic. Only joined the DSA this year.

anyway feminist caucus vice chair charles dolson seems to think it's the DSA's fault that people vote GOP
Charles Dolson on X:

"Minnesota keeps getting redder each election, here is my theory-

DFL: we consistently pass laws that help positively build minnesota's economy
voter: i'm interested
DSA: No! corporate fucks! FU!
DFL:
Voter:
DFL: sorry, ignore them
Voter: *votes GOP*

Dear neighbor,

I’m excited to share that the City of Minneapolis has installed a new NARCAN® vending machine in Ward 9. You can find this new vending machine in Phillips at Fire Station 5 (2700 Bloomington Ave South). 1/

This is the horrifying thing people need to be talking about.

It is not hyperbole to say that if we lose the DFL governorship, more people will die.

If you give even a tiny damn about trans folks & other marginalized people, or want to keep MN safe, DO EVERYTHING to fight this & keep it that way.
ajm6792.bsky.social
There is a faction actively trying to kill the DFL in Minneapolis.

Which is obviously unwise to anyone who cares about state and federal elections.

Ummmmm fucking hello??? Conflict of interest? @dfl.org does anyone there even care about the implications of this??
