Thank you to everyone standing up and supporting one another during these difficult times.

As a fourth generation Minnesotan and a DFL lawmaker in the MN House, I am proud to stand with and alongside our hardworking, peace-loving neighbors. ✊
Donald Trump has brought his lawlessness to Minnesota, sending ICE agents here to divide and terrorize our communities.

But House DFLers will always stand with our neighbors.

We are Minnesotans. And Minnesotans have each other’s backs.

The International Institute of Minnesota condemns the harmful rhetoric that is being used by the president and others in power to dehumanize, vilify, and demean immigrants and refugees.

Ok, so it’s possible this is just a vanity investment on the part of a Varde principal or principals, which is actually what you want - jock-sniffing machers who seek ego returns more than financial ones.

This is an accidentally honest answer. What she's saying in code is:
"The President is a misogynist, petulant bully. You've all seen him be a misogynist, petulant bully. And lots of voters out there are also misogynist or petulant or bullies and that's why they like him."
Q: What did the president mean when he called a reporter "piggy"?

LEAVITT: Look, the president is very frank & honest with everyone in this room. You'll all seen it yourself. You've all experienced it yourselves. And I think it's one of the many reasons the American people reelected this president

Mo'ne Davis spent years telling people that she was done playing baseball. She did not want to be forever defined by what she did as a 13-year-old in Little League, a decade ago, and she did not feel like there was space for her to do much else. And then she felt differently. On Davis and the WPBL:
Mo’ne Davis Is Finally Ready to Play Baseball Again
More than a decade after becoming a Little League sensation at age 13, Mo’ne Davis is set to make more history as the face of the Women’s Pro Baseball League.

LaTroy Hawkins seems like an ideal addition to the Twins' coaching staff under new manager Derek Shelton.

We discussed the role Hawkins is filling, why he could be a good fit, old school vs. new school, and speculation about more coaching hires.
