AIPAC is coming after me. Matt Klein and Kaela Berg are using over $2 million of dark Super-PAC and AIPAC money to flood the airwaves with ads. Their money comes from hidden sources and is being funneled or bundled into millions in dark money. We’ve got the receipts to prove it. By tracing donor reports and FEC filings, we can see exactly where my opponents are getting the millions of dollars being spent on their behalf. I think it’s important that you have transparency on who is funding your candidates. So I’ve created a website where you can read the FEC receipts, the Independent Expenditure reports, and the articles, and decide for yourself. And of course, I’ve included my own FEC reports, a direct link to Political Integrity Pledge’s rating of my campaign, which includes a breakdown of who is funding our campaign, my own assets, and exactly who my biggest backers are. Read for yourself below.

Another $1.5 million dropped– that brings the total spent in favor of my opponents to $3.5 million. Most of it is AIPAC funneling money through shell PACs and surrogates to my opponents. I’ll be real, all of this dark, outside money makes me mad. Someone is getting rich off these campaigns. It’s not me, and it isn’t you. All of this spending is meant to obscure what really matters. I will tell you exactly where every dollar we receive comes from and why we accepted it. I believe the government should serve you and your family. I believe it should be as transparent as possible, and I believe your politicians should run campaigns that align with those values. I’ve been running that campaign. Now, we’re five days out from the August 11th election. Let’s be clear about what this campaign is all about: -Stop sending weapons to Netanyahu, stop the genocide in Gaza, and start building a real, just, and lasting peace. -Pass a data center moratorium, NDA ban, and put the power to decide if they wind up in your back yard back in YOUR hands. -Medicare for All, and ensuring your family can afford treatment, consistent care, and that you don’t have to decide between medical care and rent. -Taxing the ultra wealthy, and ensuring that working families aren’t paying more in taxes than billionaires. It’s Team Little vs. Big Money, and I’m betting on Team Little. Let’s win this thing!

Crazy ICE experiences yesterday! Four ICE vehicles boxed me in outside my own house after following me home and trying to have me arrested. Watch the video for details! But one thing was clear: Despite the drawdown, ICE is still here. They’re stalking legal observers in our communities, at times doing so with no regard for traffic laws or safety. No arrests, no ‘criminals’ taken off the streets. Just taxpayer dollars endlessly wasted on masked individuals skulking around our communities. The Trump administration might as well be throwing your money into an incinerator. It’s time for ICE to go home and stop wasting taxpayer money.

This moment is personal for me. My wife is an attorney, a U.S. citizen–and because she happens to be an immigrant, she doesn’t leave the house without her passport. This is personal for me. If you live in an area impacted by ICE’s presence, it’s personal for you. We need leaders who get it, and leaders who will fight until the bitter end to hold ICE accountable. I’m that leader.

At first, ICE didn’t want to talk. This may be the only video of a real conversation with an ICE agent. After following them from an elementary school where they’d been circling to a parking lot, I was able to get a few words in. This is part of that conversation. As you’ll see, in a genuine conversation, even this ICE agent understands that they must be accountable. And when I’m elected to congress, we will hold ICE accountable- every agent who abused their authority, pepper sprayed kids, or illegally broke into someone’s home. But until November, we have to use our voice in whatever ways we can. Protest. Make noise. Talk to your friends and neighbors. Support your community. And if you get the chance at a safe distance- even talk to an ICE agent– and make it clear that if they want things to change, they must be part of that change. This is how we get ICE out of Minnesota.

I don’t know what the hell is happening to our country. Justice for Alex Pretti.

On Friday, I stood with the protestors at the Whipple Building in Minneapolis as a line of 70-80 ICE officers marched at us. In that crowd you could feel the anger and sadness over what ICE has done to the great state of Minnesota. But you could also feel the fierce drive that Minnesotans have to stand with their community and peacefully protest. When Minnesota comes together, we will not lose.

Love wins. Prior Lake, Eagan, Northfield. Today we stood up for Renee Good - thank you for standing with me. This week, my wife, who is a lawyer and a US citizen, was heading to dinner with one of her friends. She ran back inside to get her passport, for the simple reason she is an immigrant. We are occupied by a force that is trained to pull people over and detain them for the color of their skin. For their accent. Now is the time to stand up. Tomorrow, it won’t be your skin. It’ll be your hair color, eye color, the kind of car you drive, the type of job you work. Ultimately, they’ll pull you over for your political opinions. I know it’s easy to tap into your fear, your anger, your anxiety. But that’s not the way. Renee Good showed us the way. She said, “I’m not mad at you, man.” The truth is hate cannot endure. Love will sustain us. When you stand here in the street, do it for love of your neighbor, and not hate of someone else.

There’s definitely no draw down yet. And you can bet we will keep on them until they’re really gone. Today, Homan announced that ICE agents will begin leaving Minnesota. I’ll believe it when I see it. Today I responded to a call in Savage and Burnsville of ICE agents harassing our neighbors and camping outside of homes. I was stationed outside for several hours, ensuring that our community members were aware of who was stalking their neighborhoods. So I’ll believe ICE is gone when our neighbors feel safe coming out of their homes. I’ll believe they’re gone when kids can go back to school. I’ll believe they’re gone when we have justice for our community members impacted by the senseless terror they’ve inflicted on our state. And you can believe I’ll make sure we have true accountability.

We are in a fight over the very soul of our country. They can pepper spray us, tear gas us, beat us. But no matter what, they won’t touch our souls. We will stand resolute, no matter what they do to us. I know we will win. Thank you to Holy Trinity United Methodist in Prior Lake for opening their doors yesterday evening for a candlelight vigil. Together, with love and compassion, we cannot lose. #ICE #MN #Minneapolis #minneapolisprotest #minnesota

I will not forget. When I’m elected, it will be my mission to ensure ICE and senior administration are held accountable for their actions. I will not forget Renne Good. I will not forget Alex Pretti. I will not forget the children who have been pepper sprayed, used as bait, and forced to watch as their parents are taken away by masked strangers. I will not forget the horrifying conditions detainees have been kept in, and I will not forget those who have died while in ICE custody. We will have justice.

My rippling muscles caught the eye of The Bulwark's FYPod cast with Tim Miller and Cameron Kasky. Thanks for inviting me! They learned why my website says bringing Chipotle to Lakeville was my proudest achievement as Mayor, among my thoughts on other subjects like Fargo, changing your mind, the rural economy, how to keep a conversation going with a date. Watch the full podcast episode starting at 19:44.

Now, Trump’s policies are threatening my wife, Coco. If American citizens can be stripped of their citizenship, who is safe? DOJ just announced it will be seeking to strip over 200 naturalized citizens a month of their citizenship. Putting countless families in limbo, without giving any clear criteria for who might be suddenly stripped of their rights as a U.S. citizen. But we all know what this is really about, it’s about punishing political dissent and those this administration doesn’t deem American enough. My wife is a naturalized citizen who came here legally as a child on political asylum. She and I are both politically active. What happens if the Trump administration decides we’re fighting back too hard? We have to win back the House and end this push into fascism. Too many families are counting on us to win this. The soul of our country is on the line.
