Quick. Someone call the cops. "Some people are grilling some hot dogs." How about we grill him on.... settlements for police abuse and misconduct he signed off on as a City Council member, eh?

Here’s the thing about this story: Mike Stebnitz owns most buildings at GFS and has been organizing his tenants to fight the city and demand more policing since well before George Floyd was murdered.

How many ppl in this lawsuit are his tenants?
🧵

startribune.com/george-floyd-s…
I am not sure what he still owns, But in early 2020 he owned nearly every commercial building on that corner. And many were vacant then. He couldn’t get tenants bc he wanted too much $$ for rent. And he wanted a *particular kind of renter*. 2/
Anyway, I used to hang out & work from the many iterations of coffee shops on the corner and the one down the street—the name or which I can’t remember but it was more of an organizing/activist space.

And Stebnitz was constantly trying to organize folks for “more policing.” 3/

Last night I couldn’t sleep (what’s new), so naturally I spent 3 hours going down the Twitter rabbit hole of white women in the suburbs who love Harris but are married to a male Trump supporter.

It’s this whole other world of women of all ages sharing their plans and fears. 🧵
They were talking about keeping it a secret from their husbands; maybe going out of town on election day so their husbands can’t vote (they’ve already voted); not reminding them of Election Day (bc of course it’s *their job* to manage his daily life for him).
They all had some kind of plan either for keeping their vote from their husbands or “not reminding them to vote.” Their husbands are disengaged in the election and the electoral process, but they’re still 100 percent supporting Trump. Bc it doesn’t impact them.

Who is the Strib photographer who took this photo bc I want a framed copy?

While it feels good to see Don lose in even even Republican-leaning areas, it feels *really* good to see someone who traded in all ethics and used dangerous right-wing rhetoric and tactics lose so badly. Image
JoeRad chose this election to set the bar for political strategy so low in the depths of Trump hell that it makes me a bit hopeful most good people chose to step over it and vote for Omar.
When he says that “she’s the one turning out Republicans,” it’s worse than a kid punching someone in the face and saying “but they made me do it.”

Bc this grown man is FULLY aware of the ways he incited and stoked Islamophobia, misogyny, and xenophobia for his personal gain.

A Plea to Mpls & Suburban District 5:

Please vote for Ilhan Omar tomorrow—and urge others to do the same. Even if you don't agree with everything she's done, it's vital to oppose the dangerous game Samuels/JoeRad are playing with conservative influencers.

Here's the reality:
First, despite claiming to be a "Democrat," Samuels' rhetoric and the substantial contributions he receives from conservative donors prove he's more than willing to be a mouthpiece for a Trump agenda—he's willing to represent their interests in Washington.
Samuels and his campaign manager @joeradinovich are obsessed with power first and foremost. When they struggled to secure the large cash flow from anti-Palestinian orgs like AIPAC (after receiving $350K in 2022), they turned to courting conservative donors with brazen hate.

Hi, Paul! Since you're a policymaker who is too busy during the Senate break to read or look at any data or analysis to inform your decisions or thinking as a policymaker—let me help out a very busy man like you!

First, let's look at the economic impact:
Research shows universal free school meals (breakfast and lunch for students regardless of income) have 2.5 to SEVEN times the return in human health and economic benefits in comparable high-income countries.

Dang, Paul. That's a huge ROI! LOOK! amberleyruetz.ca/assets/uploads…
Image
The federal program in the US shows similar outcomes. The $18.7 billion spent annually means nearly $40 billion in human health and economic benefits annually. Wow! That's nearly DOUBLE the ROI! rockefellerfoundation.org/insights/persp…

🧵 I wasn't planning to respond to yesterday’s @StarTribune story about “rising attacks on law enforcement” and its deeply flawed, misleading data analysis. But I couldn’t sleep thinking about it. So here we go.
Claim 1: “An unusual spike in Minnesota police slayings”

Problem 1: Overly sensational and misleading significance in reporting Image
No matter what statistical test you use, such as the chi-square or z-test, the data shows this increase this year alone is considered “NOT t significantly significant” and due to “random variation.”
