Electing city delegates at caucuses helps drive turnout to caucuses in every ward across the city and gives every resident a chance to at least weigh in on who gets sent forward from their precinct to the city convention. 2/
In about 3 weeks, delegates to the Minneapolis DFL Convention will gather to endorse school board candidates and elect party officers, including a new Chair.
I am excited to announce that I am running to be the next Chair of the Minneapolis DFL. 🧵
If he's going to get a national profile on the strength of a younger woman's campaign, I'm going to come out and say it: during his short-lived tenure as a math professor, Biss had an inappropriate romantic relationship with one of his undergraduate students. I was that student.
The same day Frey vetoed a temporary extension of the pre-eviction notice, the MN Senate passed rental assistance and… a temporary extension of the state’s pre-eviction notice. Jim Abeler voted for it so Frey & some CMs are to the right of some MN republicans.

The time has come where the DFL can no longer pretend that things are business as usual. @dfl.org @rcarlbom.bsky.social it’s time to pivot to contactless caucuses to protect our precinct caucus attendees and volunteers from harm at the hands of ICE.
I hope so too
I think she may have been detained. Have heard several observers were already taken to whipple.
Tear gas is filling the air on Nicollet and folks are ducking behind cars to avoid projectiles being fired and thrown by ICE.
PLEASE stay out of the area if you have any respiratory illnesses or are pregnant.
Also note there are hundreds more agents in other cities/areas. Stay vigilant on RR.
It doesn’t matter if your response is fight, flight or fawn. They still want to kill you.
It feels so delusional to tell people to stay safe. It’s a prayer, not an actual ask anymore.
once again i am asking literally anyone in a position of power to do literally anything so that our neighbors stop getting fucking murdered in the street
And if you are on the scene, I’m begging you to let the BCA collect evidence needed bc we know the feds will say this is their jurisdiction.
If you have any firsthand video of today’s shooting, please please submit here so the Hennepin County Attorneys Office can review it

ICE just shot another one of my neighbors. They had the person on the ground, being beaten by several agents, and then fired multiple shots. In front of the donut shop where we like to get donuts for our kids.
ICE killed another Minnesotan.
there is video and it is very bad.

26th and Nicollet.
Initial report is that two observers got into a shoving match with eight agents, one observer was wrestled to the ground, and then an ICE agent pulled out a sidearm and shot the man on the ground five times.
Minneapolis woman stopped by US Border Patrol agents doing a "citizenship check" demanding her ID and birth country.
"I am a US citizen. I don't need to carry around an ID in my home."

ICE just indiscriminately stopped a citizen at a bus stop in front of the co-op. If this is how they treat the President of the Minneapolis City Council who is legally observing, just think of what they’re doing to everyone else in our City.
The agent, Jonathan Ross, was dragged by a vehicle and injured during a June operation in the Twin Cities, court records show.
angie craig is doing everything she can to get people to forget she voted for the laken riley act
don’t fall for any of these stunts
she can start by apologizing if she regrets the vote
From a lawyer friend: if someone has been detained by the feds and taken to the Whipple, they are being released as a matter of course IF they assert their 5th Amendment rights and an attorney shows up for them
I've interviewed three witnesses who said they saw an ICE agent shoot and kill motorist in Minneapolis who was observing. We also have video. All witnesses vociferously deny that the woman shot and killed presented a threat to agents. They say she was trying to leave. Homeland Security tweet below:
I don't gotta hand shit to Jacob. They're still here and he was missing yesterday when shit started popping off. He showed up when someone died. This ain't his first rodeo doing this. Be fucking better. "oooh, he gave a speech and swore." So brave. A woman died. His resident's are being disappeared
This is the moment we elected Mary Moriarty for. She has no fear. It certainly appears as if a murder was committed in her district and the DA has a responsibility to file charges when crimes are committed.
Messages from Minneapolis Councilmember Jason Chavez on WCCO just now:
1) Call to ARREST ICE
2) If you live in South Mpls, the most helpful thing you can do today is PATROL YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD

This is the video.
DHS tweet: "GOOD MORNING MINNEAPOLIS!"
DHS tweeted this yesterday. Little more than 24 hours later, ICE agents just shot and killed a legal observer in Minneapolis.
Remember a few weeks ago when people all over the country were praising MPD Chief for saying mean things about ICE?
Yeah that same man is letting ICE mace & shoot people who are protesting & showing up as legal observers.
The perimeter is there to protect ICE, not the people of Minneapolis.

This happened just blocks from George Floyd Square.
