New low for the Demuth camp. They put out an op-ed by Rep. Dawn Gillman in a futile attempt to discredit Nicole Smith-Holt about INSULIN affordability. Who do you trust more- Nicole Smith-Holt, or a state rep who wasn't even in the legislature when Alec's Law was passed?

EL-SAYED: I get that the President takes personal offense to my first name. He doesn't mind as much when it's the Saudis who are funding his son-in-law's private equity. Doesn't seem to mind as much when it's the Qataris who are giving them a $400 million private jet. He just seems to have trouble pronouncing it when it's my name.
I don't care how he pronounces my name. I don't even care that he remembers my whole name. Because he can just go on and call me senator after November.

This is actually a condescending view of working-class people. I grew up in a working-class immigrant family and we ate at Red Lobster and The Cheesecake Factory for "fancy nights out." But even we understood that the White House should not look like the inside of a Red Lobster. Working-class people are not culturally illiterate just because their experiences are shaped by their limited means.

The DFL was extremely outspoken about their opposition to metro surge. This claim that they were quiet about it is just blatantly false.
Hasan Piker calls out @MinnesotaDFL on their hypocrisy. He's fucking correct:
"When some of those DFL-ers were awfully quiet about ICE coming into their state and attacking their Somali constituents, attacking all of their constituents, I was there. THEY were not. They didn't say a damn fucking thing, just like they didn't say a damn thing when Ilhan Omar was being prosecuted and persecuted by the current administration. It's people like that who are chirping about this appearance.
If you're a Democrat and at this stage, leaning into insane right-wing attacks, concocted by the Republican Party, and you can't find it within yourself to at least be partisan in this moment, the least you can do is shut the fuck up.
Clearly you had no problem shutting the fuck up when your colleague, your peer, another Democrat from your state was under attack by Donald Trump. You had no words to say then, but you have a lot of words to say now. Please, shut the fuck up just like how you did when Ilhan Omar's house was being raided."

The way Hasan Piker and other media millionaires have built their platforms by telling people in my isolated and anxious community that their only allies are Maoist revolutionaries makes my blood boil.
Trans voter to @AOC: Trans people in America feel like they've been abandoned by the Democratic Party, that we are a losing issue, that it's not worth defending us. What do you say to that?

Lisa Demuth doesn’t want to talk about it, but it matters: she was the lead author of a bill to ban abortion – with no exceptions for rape or incest – and to put doctors in jail. And earlier this year, she said she supports overturning the court case protecting abortion in Minnesota.
As Governor, I will protect a woman’s right to make her own health care decisions in Minnesota.

In the end, the real October surprise was the reply guys we met along the way
NEW: Phi Beta Kappa says Lt. Gov. Flanagan has in fact been a "member ... in good standing" since 2002.
Which means, it seems the WSJ was wrong and Flanagan was wrong about being wrong.

As Democrats, we constantly criticize the far-right for their incendiary and discriminatory politics, but we need to hold ourselves to the same standard. Hasan Piker’s rhetoric is polarizing and dangerous, and embracing him as a party is a mistake. I am disappointed that Minnesota DFLers are hosting an event with him here.

The raid on Congresswoman Ilhan Omar's home should be seen for what it is—a terrifying abuse of power in the lead up to the midterms. It's also deeply personal here in Hennepin. 🧵 1/4
