Arresting journalists is an outrageous attack on the First Amendment and is a tactic meant to silence the truth.

Keep speaking up and don’t turn away from Minnesota.
Independent journalist Georgia Fort was also arrested by federal agents earlier for reporting on the church protest in Minneapolis. She was live streaming when agents arrived to take her into custody.

Ted Mondale has dedicated his life to ensuring every Minnesotan can thrive.

Like me, Ted believes leadership should be grounded in service, fairness, and the belief that government can be a force for good.

I'm proud to have earned his endorsement.

Yesterday, I joined members of the Native community to pray for Renee Good and Alex Pretti, for our protectors, and our community.

In the face of ICE's violence and cruelty, Minnesotans stand together, rooted in our love for our neighbors.

Agents, directed by our Republican president and his advisors like Miller & Noem, violate the most sacred promise of our Constitution: that our freedoms never be trampled by our own government.

For our protection, constitutional rights must apply to everyone in the US. Always.

A Minnesota woman observing ICE agents in her car was cornered on one-way streets. An agent approached, called her by name—citing facial recognition. Days later, her Global Entry and TSA privileges were revoked, with no explanation.

Minnesota based Independent Journalist GEORGIA FORT has been arrested for filming a protest of the church pastor that works as an ICE manager. SPREAD THE WORD! Georgia has been doing outstanding reporting from ground zero!

I am so proud to have earned Pramila Jayapal’s endorsement of my campaign for US Senate.

As a life-long organizer and champion for immigrant communities, she knows exactly what is needed and necessary in this moment. I'm grateful for her support and her friendship.

We need more than theater of empty promises from Republicans. We demand our humanity and our rights be respected.

Ossoff: "This is a seismic event. This should have people across the country absolutely shook. This is a huge deal. This is an FBI raid on the Fulton County Elections office ... This is a shot across the bow at the midterm elections. He tried to steal power when he lost it in 2020."

You walk into this bar and show your ICE mugshot, you don't pay a dime.
Scrolling through the photos of Pam Bondi's "Minnesota rioters," it's just hero after hero. Every photo includes a cowardly DHS agent with their back to the camera.

Bondi thinks she's going to win the propaganda war with this shit, but it's never been more clear that they're losing.

On Monday, I joined fellow Catholics, faith leaders, and @unidosmn.bsky.social for an evening of prayer, reflection, and organizing. 

Our faith calls us to welcome the stranger. I’m proud to see so many Minnesotans of all faiths living that every day.

Minnesotans have a choice on February 3rd:

Do you want a senator who enabled Trump's cruel ICE chaos? Or a senator who has always stood up for safety for our immigrant neighbors?

To me, the answer is clear.

Something important to understand about ICE thugs in the Twin Cities is that they're harassing innocent kids and parents at bus stops and schools every single day. Even after the Pretti shooting. It's terrorism.

Congresswoman Omar always holds her own. I’m glad she’s safe — and that she never backs down from a bully. I’m proud to be her friend and constituent.
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.

Imagine watching the president declare an entire African community unworthy of the American dream, while readily granting asylum to only white South Africans, and still believing this is about solving our immigration issues.

Needless to say that Renee Good and Alex Pretti will go down as heroes here in Minnesota and nationally, their names synonymous with sacrifice and caring for vulnerable neighbors even at the risk of your own life. And hopefully no more innocent lives are lost.
