If you’ve been thinking about chipping in, this is the moment

  SHARED FOR INFORMATION AND EDUCATION ABOUT ELECTION   REPORTS AND CANDIDATES!  I’m going to keep this short.   Tonight is our end-of-month deadline. Midnight. And I’m asking you personally:   If you’ve been thinking about chipping in, this is the moment. This campaign isn’t backed by billionaires. It isn’t powered by corporate PACs. It’s powered by people who decided to step up — people like you, I’ve spent my life working jobs where you don’t get to cut corners. You show up, you do the work, and you finish what you started.   That’s where we are right now.   Close —  but not done.   So I’m asking one more time before midnight: Can you chip in $5 or $10 to help us close this gap? Every dollar matters in a race like this. It all adds up. And tonight, it decides whether we hit this goal or fall short.   I wouldn’t ask if it didn’t matter.   Let’s finish this strong.   Dan   CONTRIBUTE   Paid for by Osborn for Senate ...

  People of Twin Cities awarded JFK Profile in Courage Award over resistance to ICE surge By  WCCO Staff March 19, 2026 The people of Minneapolis-St. Paul are being honored with a John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage Award for their response to the federal immigration enforcement operation this winter, the JFK Library Foundation announced Wednesday. The award recognizes residents who risked their lives to protect neighbors and immigrant community members during what the Department of Homeland Security described as the largest federal immigration enforcement action in U.S. history, according to the foundation. Starting in late 2025,  more than 3,000 federal agents  from ICE and U.S. Border Patrol were deployed to the Twin Cities metro area. The foundation highlighted that tens of thousands of residents  took to the streets  to peacefully protest federal overreach and threats to immigrant families and constitutional protections. Others documented enforcement ac...

UnitedHealthcare defrauded MassHealth of $100M, AG Campbell alleges

  UnitedHealthcare defrauded MassHealth of $100M, AG Campbell alleges Alison Kuznitz, State House News Service May 29, 2026 Attorney General Andrea Campbell sued UnitedHealthcare Insurance Company on Friday, accusing the insurer of misclassifying the conditions of elderly members and defrauding MassHealth of at least $100 million. United fired back that Campbell's lawsuit is "meritless" and inaccurately captures the purpose of a managed care program. The lawsuit revolves around MassHealth members ages 65 and up enrolled in the Senior Care Options plan. It alleges that United "falsely manipulated" their health evaluations in order to secure bigger payments, Campbell's office said. Members are assessed from Level 1 to Level 3, with higher levels corresponding to more serious conditions and higher payment rates. "The state's managed care plans need to act in good faith on behalf of their members and the financial resources of our state's Medicaid ...
