After an eight-minute trip from the university, OTUS arrived at the Van Dusen mansion just south of downtown Minneapolis for a fundraiser hosted by the DCCC.

The fundraiser was expected to raise $600,000 from 150 supporters who paid from $2,500 per person to $50,000 per couple.

All of the Democratic members of Minnesota's congressional delegation attended, as did House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

She thanked the donors for "for helping us retain control of the House, which we fully intend to do."
