Thank you to everyone in Minnesota who yesterday came to support Ukraine, stand up for American values, and defend democracy. I was really moved by how many people showed up (despite the nasty weather), the support, and the creativity of the posters (pooping dog made my day 🐶).
You’re all amazing. Proud to be a Minnesotan 💙
