Minneapolis City Council to debate $5M fund shift to support local businesses
Minneapolis City Council to debate $5M fund shift to support local businesses A Minneapolis City Council member is proposing to allocate $5 million to support local businesses, but some argue the city lacks the funds. STORY:…

If you thought MPD overspending their 2025 overtime budget by 50% was bad, get a load of 2026: "We have spent all of our overtime budgeted for police and fire this year in the first 3 weeks of January."

This morning 5 ICE vehicles parked illegally in a bike lane and in MPD parking spots directly outside of City Hall. Myself and several other Council Members and city staff went outside to observe them and blew our whistles to alert people nearby. After about 45 minutes they left

video of angie craig getting booed at a caucus in eagan via kevin holst on twitter

people in minnesota are fired up against ICE, and we have no appetite for a politician like craig who voted for the laken riley act and a resolution in support of ICE

this campaign is going nowhere

i understand why people don’t want to talk to the press now, but will being willing to do so helps get the story out from someone who feels safe doing so. rep brad tabke is also doing a lot of anti ICE work openly under his name and i think this takes the heat off others who don’t want attention

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.

If you don't know that Representative Omar is tough as nails: she got threatened and beat up at a caucus in 2014, fraught with allegations of misconduct, and then two weeks later she came back and helped her friend win it.

Come together for what? Progress towards what? I’m genuinely asking. The federal government is murdering Minnesotans and disappearing our neighbors. So if any of these CEO’s want to explain to me personally what I β€” as a state leader β€” should ask the federal government for, I’m available.

Ineptitudinous & just now
Simon, you posted something just now (since deleted? or maybe I just can't find it? that included this statement:
"I realize that things are tense in Minnesota right now, and hard; but l, this community, and the DFL are not the enemy. Trump is, Miller is, ICE is, Putin is. That people there took so much time today to degrade this virtuous mission of ours these last 24 hours since wildly and dangerously off-mission."
Simon, the constant text messages from the party-you know, the ones that essentially scam the elderly (cnn.com/interactive/202...β€”have a really poor track record of delivering resources to candidates, but a tremendous track record of enriching consultants. A recent analysis shows that, of $100 gathered by these text message campaigns, only $1.60 gets to candidates (thenation.com/article/p...). If this is a bad look for institutional Dem fundraising, l'd like to politely suggest that the party commit to no longer doing it. To be sure, I'm in perfect harmony with you on this point: Trump, Miller, ICE, and Putin are the enemies of our party. But do you understand that, with Dem leaders not even deigning to visit Minnesota, we might reasonably infer that the party is less invested in fighting ICE (you know, defending our immigrant neighbors) than Minneapolis activists? Time and again we see Dem institutional leaders fail to use every ounce of their power through every available means to meaningfully obstruct the MAGA regime. (Yeah, including objecting to unanimous consent!). You know, democracy is... actually on the line. More people are going to die. We really just want a party that can pretend to understand these things.

Seriously fuck off. Don't lecture me. Do your homework. Understand what we do here. You and your community acted shamefully today. This is not the right place for you. These posts are insulting. The treatment I got today from people in Minnesota was disgusting. You have no idea who I am, what we do here. Some dude sent some email to a list and the pile on happened. It's ridiculous. What we say and do here every day is that we respect one another. We lift each other up not tear each other down. We stay focused on the mission - beating Trump - and not fighting with one another. We are all playing different positions on the same team. Here we demand respect, dignity - something that your community did not give me today. Literally hundreds and hundred of lying, slanderous posts. I have never been been spoken to or attacked by others in our own family in my entire career as I was today - all for just helping. It was shameful behavior. You are an arrogant asshole coming in here for 5 bucks and lecturing me under a pseudonym, too cowardly to use your own name and image, without having any idea what we do and say here every day. So fuck off and good luck.


Ineptitudinous just now
So you don't have any factual disputes with anything I've asserted?

Don’t listen to this political strategist. There are literal families who are starving, people who do not have enough for rent, businesses with eviction letters, and neighbors who are hiding.

Help communities out instead and it will actually have an impact.

Do not donate to the DFL. Donate to a GoFundMe for rent or immigration fees, donate to a food shelf β€” use your dollars to help the community, not the state party apparatus. The DFL isn’t gonna save us from ICE. We are all we have

Dear neighbor,

HIGH ALERT‼️ If you are vulnerable to deportation please stay home today. I’m sorry to say this but it’s not safe to be outside. ICE is tearing families apart.

Children of immigrants please keep your family safe.

Friends, we have some positive news tonight out of the Constitution, Bylaws, and Rules Committee re: the DFL Feminist Caucus.

The TL;DR of it is the entire feminist caucus leadership has to either undergo extensive training, or resign within 10 days.

Good morning. I woke up at 7AM and have had a cup and a half of coffee already.

A lot of people outside Minneapolis probably are wondering what's going. What's happened to the "Midwest Mamdani"?

And a lot of people who just learned about us this year are probably confused. It's okay!
