I’m asking everyone to vote for a new Mayor by Tuesday and rank all 3 of Omar Fateh, Dewayne Davis, and Jazz Hampton in whichever order you prefer. I’ve worked at City Hall for the last 4 years and from my personal experiences I believe the City desperately needs a new mayor.

Warped stuff from the St. Paul Police Federation. The officer’s actions were well documented. This posture is the opposite of helpful.

In case you’re wondering how St Paul Police could ever treat their own residents like they did yesterday look at this unhinged statement from who the officers elect as their leaders.

In case you’re wondering how St Paul Police could ever treat their own residents like they did yesterday look at this unhinged statement from who the officers elect as their leaders.
The police chief says here that they have a responsibility to make sure laws aren’t being broken in the City. Well ICE does not operate lawfully, and your own police tear gassing journalists and citizens isn’t lawful either so you’re already failing at that responsibility.
St. Paul leaders face mounting questions about why police officers were on the scene — and why force was used — despite repeated assurances that the department would not participate in federal immigration actions.
Conflicting accounts emerge after St. Paul ICE raid
City vows full review as DHS, family and witnesses offer sharply different explanations for arrests and police use of force.

There’s such a disconnect in the formulaic way Politicians make statements and respond to critical incidents. “Raises questions” “monitoring” “we need answers”
There’s video and we all saw what happened. We don’t need to review and we don’t need answers. We just need leaders to take action.

St. Paul Mayor Melvin Carter said he has seen videos circulating online, including footage of a woman being blasted in the face with a chemical irritant at point-blank range.
Carter said the incident raises questions about whether the city’s values of de-escalation and minimal force “were upheld.”

Watching SPPD today really shows that if we’re going to get through we need our leaders to have zero tolerance with our police on this shit. If you lack the morality that should make it abundantly clear that you shouldn’t be on the side of ICE in this moment then you’re gone immediately full stop.

All Trump wants is to make us think some people don’t have the same humanity as others. The Frey campaign and All of MPLS spent millions of dollars spreading Islamophobia for the last year doing Trump’s dirty work for him and set this up perfectly. They should be ashamed but I’m sure they don’t care
I am a citizen and so are majority of Somalis in America. Good luck celebrating a policy change that really doesn’t have much impact on the Somalis you love to hate. We are here to stay 💁🏽♀️

Today’s federal enforcement action in St. Paul was disgusting. Abolish ICE.
It’s always important to question the validity of info you receive when you are told it’s not immigration enforcement/ICE. I’m thankful we had people on the ground updating us so we can let our loved ones know the truth. 1/
