Following the President’s decision to bomb nuclear facilities in Iran, I’ve directed our public safety teams to be on heightened alert for potential threats to Minnesota. While there’s no known threats at this time, we’ll continue to monitor the situation and respond accordingly.

Choosing to be a good person is like sharing stars in the night sky. Every good deed is a star that illuminates the darkness and fills the world with a gentle glow. It is worth sowing and sharing these stars, because in their light a beauty unfolds that touches the entire universe.

A beautiful photo of a meteor moving fast through the sky. Honestly, it could be a great phone wallpaper.

A recent study found that for every $1 invested in the National Weather Service, it produces $73 in value to Americans.
Not only is the NWS a life-saving government resource, it's actually quite efficient.

Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops.
I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III.
Remind you of anyone?

This illegal attempt to gut the CFPB must be stopped.

This is getting fewer headlines than it should. After coming to power promising to help working people, the president is revealing his real priorities by actively making it easier for banks to rip people off.

The nationwide measles outbreak now stands at more than 800 cases, but you probably don’t know that since RFK Jr is keeping a tight lid on that news.
The orange areas in the below map show where the vaccination rate is under the 95% coverage target among kindergarteners. That’s a LOT of orange!
