Just had a hilarious moment at an estate sale. Thought I hit the jackpot with these "wrapples" - they looked so tempting! But then I checked the "best when purchased by date"... and let's just say, I think they're better suited for the museum. 📷 #VintageTreats #Kraft

Today, Burnsville mourns the loss of our heroes. Their sacrifice reverberates through every corner of our community and beyond. Let's remember to honor, appreciate, and support all those who bravely answer the call to serve - not just today, but every day. #BurnsvilleStrong

Thrilled to celebrate Dominic Choi as the new LAPD Police Chief! A couple years back, I was lucky enough to welcome him to my office. His remarkable leadership qualities and exceptional character were evident then, as they are now. Here's to your new journey, Chief Choi! #LAPD

This is something that we should all get behind. Violent juvenile (and adult) offenders should never be unsupervised until they are held accountable - and receive necessary intervention - reducing the chance of reoffending. kare11.com/article/news/loca…

Axel is an excellent choice, bringing a wealth of experience, a track record of success and strong community relationships with him to the job. And perhaps most importantly, he knows and understands the city, its people and its needs. twincities.com/2022/11/01/st…

Today was my last official meeting serving on the board of directors for the International Association of Chiefs of Police - it’s been an honor working with some of the greatest minds in public safety for the past five years.

I had the honor of delivering the keynote speech @SPACC Leaders in Local Government Awards event today - my topic was leading through adversity. Thanks @BrendaKyle for the invite & all of the sponsors and awardees

2,996 people. All left behind loved ones. Today marks the 21st anniversary of one of the darkest days in our country's history. Today and every day, we should live our lives with light in honor of everyone taken too soon on September 11, 2001.

Every spoke of the criminal justice wheel must support victims of crime - from the 911 call through judicial accountability. When this happens, violent crime offenders are not left on the street to re-offend. It’s really a basic crime prevention strategy cbsnews.com/minnesota/video/…

It was a magnificent day learning, meeting new friends and spending time where so many of our Hmong neighbors lived before coming to the US. The Axtell Group was proud to sponsor the two memorial signs at Ban Vinai refugee camp.

Reflecting on the thousands of our Hmong neighbors and their families who crossed the Mekong river from Laos (on the right) to Thailand (on the left). It’s a powerful and beautiful sight.

An amazing day in Chiang Khan, Thailand - along the Mekong River - Taking in the history and meeting some amazing people. – at Chiang Khan, Thailand

I am honored to know all three generations. In 1984, Marvin personally hired me in Brainerd. I was the usher, ticket ripper, hoky sweeper, bathroom cleaner, and concession seller. I loved my job and I loved the Mann family - Still do. twincities.com/2022/08/13/ma… via @pioneerpress

One of the last decisions I made before retiring was to select Brianna as SPPD's Officer of the Year. I remember the phone call - she was expectedly gracious, humble, kind and respectful. Contratulations, Brianna! twincities.com/2022/07/16/br… via @pioneerpress

Stella invited her good friend, ⁦@TimSigler⁩ over today for a backyard party. She loves his talent, and so do we. And he’s right, she ain’t never caught a rabbit🤷🏼‍♂️

Small changes can lead to big and important results for our guardians. kare11.com/article/news/loca… via @KARE11
