When news broke Friday night that two Democratic legislators had been shot in Minnesota, Christian nationalist Gene Bailey immediately began praying for the victims before declaring "we're going to see government changed in Minnesota, we're gonna see Gov. Tim Walz figure out he's on the wrong side."

The tariff saga and its impact on disabled people cannot be separated from the administration’s brutal cuts to Medicaid.

The Administration froze funding for 9 Planned Parenthood state health centers, including Minnesota/North Central States locations.
For so many people, it’s the only place they can turn to for check-ups, cancer screenings, or reproductive care. This is dangerous and wrong.

Yesterday, Donald Trump issued an executive order attempting to seize control of elections from the states and threatened to retaliate against those that don’t adhere to his extreme agenda. This unconstitutional action would disenfranchise millions and must be stopped.
