This morning ICE attempted to enter into the Ecuadorian consulate on Central Ave but were barred from entering. I spoke with Ambassador Yanez this afternoon and they want to make sure the Ecuadorian community knows it’s still safe to come to the consulate.

Can you help bring this father back home to Minnesota? He was kidnapped by ICE moments before wishing his granddaughter happy birthday on the phone. He’s been in the USA for over 25 years.

I’m so proud of my Congresswoman and relieved she’s ok. She is exactly the type of leader we need in times where we’re facing attacks from our federal government on citizens. I’m excited to support her for reelection this year.
I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work.

I don’t let bullies win.

Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.

This morning, an ICE agent attempted to illegally enter the Ecuadorian consulate in Minneapolis, which is against International law. There’s a new boss in town, and yet they still continue to break the law. 1/

Federal Agents have been seen across South Minneapolis today. ICE is still in Minnesota and families continue to be separated. Our neighbors continue to see a need for observers that will alert our neighbors of any activity. Please make sure you are paired up for safety when you do this. 1/

We’ve been on the streets all day with @bradlander.bsky.social and because we had so many patrols out, multiple abductions were prevented.

The world is looking to us for inspiration, and we will keep showing them how we show up for our neighbors.

There isn’t any indication that immigration activity has changed in Minneapolis. In fact, this afternoon, federal immigration agents began staging at Holy Rosary Catholic Church located in East Phillips. This activity is disgraceful and creates an unsafe environment for our neighbors. 1/

If they wanted this to end they could leverage their capital to do so. They don’t actually want the ICE operations that are widely unsupported to stop. They’ll still let ICE stage in their lots, let Bovino terrorize customers, and let their employees get attacked by ICE on the job.

"What can Democrats actually do?"

- Vote against funding for ICE and DHS

- State that any ICE officers who commit crimes under Trump will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law

- Encourage cities and states to refuse to cooperate with ICE

- Explain ICE is part of Trump's tyranny

My son attended the vigil at Whittier Park with friends. I lit a candle in memory of Alex Pretti at 7 pm.

Nothing feels like enough. This still feels like the first stages of something worse.

But I appreciate all of you for being in this with me.

Whom do these officials serve? Their constituents need to know.
The urgent questions for Representatives Brad Finstad, Tom Emmer, Michelle Fischbach, and Pete Stauber are: Will you finally act to protect Minnesotans? Will you demand that ICE leave our state immediately? 13/

This has been the conflict with the DFL for *ages*. It's the donor base v. the volunteer base. Volunteers are largely working class people who don't have funds to toss around, but we're the ones shouldering the workload in getting out the vote and ensuring party business happens smoothly.
Thing is, nobody votes harder than the demographic he attacked. And we are activated.
