Ellison’s Rally Line Draws Attention Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison spoke Monday at a Minneapolis rally for Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan, who is running for U.S. Senate, and one line from his remarks quickly caught fire online. Ellison told the crowd there were “a whole lot of people” who were 18 in the last election, “a whole lot of people who were not naturalized citizens in the last election,” and many others who sat out. Then he added, “We gonna get ’em all this election.” In normal campaign-speak, that could mean registering new voters, reaching young voters, and turning out people who became citizens since the last race.

Just say the right pronouns!” The officer then pulled out mace and pursued Vick around the room as backup was called. Whatever one thinks about the pronoun politics, the video shows the kind of mess police are increasingly expected to handle in real time: mental health concerns, campus rules, identity disputes, public safety, and a crowd of future administrators waiting to write a policy memo after the fact.
