JosΓ© Garza and Cedrick Frazier
District Attorney JosΓ© Garza has been a national leader among elected prosecutors willing to stand up to Donald Trump. Iβm proud to have his support and to stand with him in this fight.
We will be honoring Melissa and her beloved husband, Mark, today with a remembrance ceremony in the House Chamber.

Melissa Hortman and Cedrick Frazier
As we gavel into the 2026 legislative session, we do so with grief and heavy hearts. It has been the honor of a lifetime to know Melissa Hortman, to have fought alongside her to better the lives of Minnesotans, and to call her my friend.
Along these lines: if you live in Minneapolis, the Hennepin County Attorney we elect this fall is going to be the lawyer in charge of prosecuting ICE agents for the murders and atrocities they committed against us. That's why I'm supporting Cedrick Frazier.
My forever Valentine, Stellaβ₯οΈ
Itβs impossible not to feel the contrast of celebrating Valentineβs Day at the close of one of the most hate-filled chapters in our stateβs history. Yet perhaps that contrast is the point. Valentineβs reminds us of loveβs power, and of our responsibility to choose it.
Operation Metro Surge is ending β but our work for justice isnβt.
Communities were traumatized. Rights were violated. Lives were lost. Now accountability must follow. Justice means real accountability: Under my leadership, we will pursue that justice for our peopleβs rights and dignity.

On this Super Bowl Sunday, Iβm reminded how grateful I am for the sport that brought me to Minnesota nearly 30 years ago. #SBLX
Leadership starts with listening, and as the next Hennepin County Attorney, I will work with community leaders, advocates, and experts to advance real solutions that make our communities safer through accountability, prevention, and strong partnerships.
We are now less than 24 hours away from the DFL precinct caucus. Iβm asking for your support by showing up and raising your hand to be a county delegate.
Caucuses are where our shared values turn into action.

I look forward to working alongside Attorney General @keithellison.bsky.social to harness the strength of Minnesotaβs two largest public law offices to stand up to Trumpβs authoritarianism.

We will hold every one of these federal agents and administration officials accountable for the lawlessness and terror they are inflicting on our communities. We will never bend to their tyranny.
Don Lemon and Georgia Fort are journalists protected by the First Amendment of the Constitution. Their arrests this morning by masked federal agentsβ with Georgiaβs arrest carried out in front of her children just before the start of the school dayβis a stain on the fabric of our democracy.
I am not afraid to prosecute federal agents who break the law.
What this moment requires is a leader with the resolve, the morals, and the nerve to fight for the people of our state. No person is above the law β not a federal agent, not Donald Trump β and no one in our community is beneath its protection.
The trials of these federal agents are likely to occur after this yearβs election, placing the responsibility for accountability squarely in the hands of the next Hennepin County Attorney.
I commend my Congresswoman for refusing to back down, for standing tall against the forces of hate, and for always delivering for the people of Minnesota.
We always got your backβ₯οΈ
Even in a moment when it would have been perfectly understandable to end her event and go home, she knew that many of her constituents are hurting right now due to the chaos federal immigration agents have wrought through our streets.
Anyone who knows Ilhan should not be surprised that she did not allow this despicable incident to derail her from her commitment to service and moving forward with her town hall event.
Congresswoman Ilhan Omar and Representative Cedrick Frazier
I am glad that my sister Congresswoman @ilhanmn.bsky.social is safe tonight after someone attacked her with an unknown substance.
We are grateful for the swift action taken by her team to prevent a bad situation from becoming worse.

Text messages from me reading: Representative Frazier, my name is Dan Suitor and I live in Minneapolis (8-6). Maybe I shouldn't lead with this, but you've already earned my support in the caucuses for Hennepin County Attorney. But I want to ask, if elected, whether and how you will commit to expending every resource at your office's disposal to prosecute ICE agents for their crimes in this city I'm an attorney myself, so I understand the difficulties of prosecuting federal officers acting (putatively) in the line of duty. But at this point, I need to know what I can tell other people when then ask if my preferred candidate is going to fight for us.
Hey Danβ Thank you for reaching out, and I appreciate your support. Under my leadership, there will be accountability for any federal agent when we can prove theyβve violated state law. Many of the charging decisions and trials of federal agents will likely occur during the term of the next HCA. These cases will be the most consequential work the HCAO has ever undertaken, and I take that responsibility seriously. Cedrick
Cedrick Frazier is running for Hennepin County Attorney, i.e. head prosecutor covering Minneapolis. He's probably the choice of most progressive folks already, and has made public statements about prosecuting ICE agents. As a caucus-goer, I got a letter with a contact number and asked him about it:
Sorry, everyone. The 2026 local election season has arrived. I tried to delay it as long as I could. The Wedge LIVE podcast is kicking it off with Rep. Cedrick Frazier, who is running for Hennepin County Attorney.

Minnesota House United Black Legislative Caucus members gathered in support of @cedrickfrazier.bsky.social for Hennepin County Attorney. DFL precinct caucus night is Tuesday, February 3, 2026. Find your caucus location at β caucusfinder.sos.mn.gov
Another sharp reminder today as a very kind @cedrickfrazier.bsky.social volunteer called about precinct caucuses - it still seems crazy to think about caucusing, but we all see why its important to get a solid Hennepin County Attorney like Frazier, *especially** in these times right???
We will continue to express our 1st Amendment rights and we will not concede our 4th Amendment protections.
This administration doesnβt respect the constitution but itβs still the law of the land!

By collectively gathering and preserving evidence, we can pursue charges, conduct trials, and secure convictions of these violent agents in state court, where Trumpβs presidential pardons cannot apply.
When federal agents commit assault, break into homes or businesses without proper authority, falsely imprison residents, impersonate local law enforcement officers, intimidate witnesses, or damage property, we must hold them accountable under Minnesota law.
It is now our civic duty to record the actions of federal agents in our communities. As Trumpβs U.S. Attorneys and the FBI work to shield illegalβand even deadlyβmisconduct, it is critical that the public document these encounters whenever possible.
