I’m on the scene at Franklin and 1st. A convoy of about a couple dozen ICE/HSI agents broke the entryway into an apartment building at 6am. No warrant presented. Less than 24 hours ago, Tom Homan announced the end of large convoys in Minnesota… Bullshit.

Around 9 a.m. this morning, federal agents executed one of our neighbors, Alex Pretti, at 26th and Nicollet in Whittier, in the community I represent. This is the second neighbor murdered in South Minneapolis by ICE in less than three weeks.

A group of 6 families are coordinating transportation, groceries, rent & utilities for 60+ Folwell families in South Minneapolis (this number grows daily). Most of the students have now shifted to e-learning. Please help our neighbors who are impacted by immigration enforcement. gofund.me/21bb0eb2c

One of my uncles was kidnapped by ICE yesterday. He was always there for my family and even helped my family afford my graduation party when I graduated college. 💔 Anything helps. ICE has no humanity. Hard workers literally being torn from their families. gofund.me/d84e22b46

Our systems are failing if they are not protecting and serving Women of Color. Over a year and a half ago, our public safety system failed Allison Lussier. This fall, it failed Mariah Samuels.

I’m running for Mayor to help build the City my son will grow up in. A safe and affordable city for working families, that gives the next generation the tools they need to succeed. I’m running for my family and yours, because Minneapolis is worth fighting for.

Minneapolis has become a tale of two cities. One for the wealthy and well connected, and one for all of us — the renters, transit riders, and working families who are left with vetoes and broken promises. We need a Mayor who stands with working people, and works as hard as we do.

They don't wanna tell you that's Omar Fateh's Co-Campaign Manager. @grfmpls.bsky.social

It's seven hours and 13 days…until Election Day. Nothing Compares 2 U — the voter. #Prince #Minneapolis www.youtube.com/watch?v=cpGA...

On the left, a unity candidate with a clear vision that's ready to get things done. On the right, a three term mayor who can only boast 8 endorsements, and only half of them live in the city he's running in.

I'm proud to have the broadest coalition of support from elected officials, community members, and organizations, of any candidate in this race. We deserve a Mayor that's ready to collaborate, work across differences, and deliver for residents of Minneapolis.

I’m so excited to have my Congresswoman and friend, @ilhanmn.bsky.social, on board with my candidacy for Mayor! She fights hard for the working people of Minneapolis. As Mayor, I’ll partner with leaders like her to build an affordable city that's accountable to us. secure.actblue.com/donate/fateh...

landlord john wall, minnetonka resident who caucuses and votes in ward 2 minneapolis and held a role on credentials committee that ousted the 80+ robin wonsley supporting delegates at the convention, found in violation of renters' rights voting law and fined taylordahlin.com/f/landlord-j...

We won! Following three weeks of legal proceedings and over five hours in court, the judge found Wayzata-based Minneapolis landlord John Wall in violation of the law on three counts, resulting in a $1,450 fine.

A single mom in the Duluth area is in need of community care. She is navigating challenging times & was laid off from her job. She needs funds to maintain her housing & to cover basic needs. Please consider contributing or reposting. I will update progress and share screenshots for accountability.🌻

Polls are in. We’re close to the top. Up 8 points last month with the highest favorability at +27. Every first rank vote matters. Share, tell a friend, and help us close the gap.

Watching this press conference where Cathy just spent minutes, whole minutes, delivering one big PR word salad. All this is conversation, not about the finals, to give people NOTHING of substance is just a massive disappointment.

Elections 2025: Minneapolis City Council, Ward 10. naomikritzer.com/2025/09/29/e...

A devastating end to a beautiful season 😭

Man oh man, I love Cheryl Reeve.

Getting ready to mandate a picnic because it's clear a lot of people desperately need to touch grass.

Stancil is proof that local democracy thrives with participants, not commentators.

Frey spin room is going all out to try to- 1) dog whistle their way out of a loss 2) cover for the fact that they didn't count delegates before leading a walkout 3) obscure the reality that delegates were willing to stick around for over 12 hours in a plea for better leadership

Omar Fateh is the consensus candidate we need to ensure we leave convention with an endorsement, support him on your second ballot!

If I miss the entirety of the WNBA All Star game tomorrow because of convention... Y'all studbudz have made this the gayest sports weekend we've ever had access to. If you don't have one yet, make this your reason to oppose delay tactics. I'll personally really appreciate it.

I can't begin to express what a difference access to gender affirming care would have made to me when I was young - and how that would have continued to benefit me as an adult. I didn't even know it existed.

I love Blackheart because tonight alone, I've met three Asters, two Kais, and four Ems. I've discussed the Lynx record too many times to count, and chanted "trans masc" just for fun a couple of times. I love Minneapolis, but we don't have a queer bar that comes anywhere near this.

Another possible headline could be: "Well-Financed Challenger Lydia Millard Fails To Win Endorsement Despite Big Spending by pro-Frey PAC." Strib photo of Chughtai also follows Strib tradition of portraying female electeds as grim and angry (a la former mayor Betsy Hodges and DA Mary Moriarty.)

After a powerful day of organizing, the Ward 10 Convention ended with us in first place with 52% of the delegates. This win is a testament to our transformative work together over the last 4 years and the power of our vision of a city where everyone has what they need to thrive.

There is no moral distinction between taking healthcare away from trans people and taking healthcare away from undocumented people. If you’re fighting to protect our care then you should be fighting for healthcare for everyone. Everyone. Protect undocumented healthcare.

I was 7 years old when my family learned our then-undocumented parent had a breast tumor. Without urgent treatment we couldn’t afford, she had limited time before it became cancer. Healthcare coverage for undocumented Minnesotans, regardless of their age, is personal to me 🧵

Ward 5 Convention kicks off to the candidate speaking time being ignored so Mayor Frey can talk right away, immediate confusion to whether or not we are having a prayer break, and complaints about the heat. Strong start

The Minneapolis Music Summit is on Saturday the 10th! Come out to Green Room for a day full of networking, panels, resources, and more! Free, RSVP: mplsartsandculture.org/2024-mpls-mu... Produced with the City of Minneapolis Arts & Cultural Affairs Department and MN Independent Venue Alliance.

The landlords behind We Love Mpls are putting a specific emphasis on @aishaforward10.com, which is no surprise when you learn that 40% of their violations in the last three years have been for properties in Ward 10.

We Love Mpls wants to oust the progressives on City Council and re-elect Mayor Frey? But why? As always - follow the money. 68% of their known donations come from landlords responsible for hundreds of Minneapolis property violations in the last three years alone.

I love Chughtai as my CM, she has thoughtful stances, does her homework. I can’t help but notice her campaign info is facts, plans, and accomplishments. Millard’s sounds like November’s “eggs are too expensive! Burn it down!” Vibes, without acknowledging how freaking *complicated* the issues are

If you abduct someone and send them involuntarily and without recourse to a country where they've never lived to be imprisoned, that isn't deportation, it's human trafficking

Ward 10 hotties: it’s okay if you don’t want to commit in your love life. I just want you to commit to caucusing for me at 6:30pm tonight. Sign up at aishaforward10.com/commit 🌻💛

If we are being real, red tagging is the dialectical equivalent of an omen.

I’m so excited to kick off my re-election campaign with y’all tomorrow! See you at Eat Street Crossing on 2819 Nicollet in the Prince Room from 1-3pm!! Details: www.mobilize.us/aishachughta...

Just last October, the Police Department used City resources to hold a Catholic Mass. During Ramadan in 2023 and again in 2024, Chief Brian O’Hara used City resources to host an iftar in the community.

30 years ago, we did. They were called "local newspapers." Then the Telecom Act of 1996 allowed essentially unlimited corporate consolidation of media outlets and they killed off local news in the space of a single generation.

When oh when are we going to have a local publication fill the void that CityPages left?

Minneapolis doesn’t have a strong Mayor, it has strong donors. Residents thought they voted for a single point of accountability, what they got was a single point of failure. Wealthy donors have taken over national politics, let's not let them take over locally. www.startribune.com/minneapolis-...

Big fan of the way that Council President @elliottpayne.org speaks with such clarity and purpose. We’re lucky as a city to have him there to fill the leadership vacuum left by the mayor. www.startribune.com/minneapolis-...

Strong language from Council Member Palmisano, defending Operation Underground Railroad again today: "Claims by my colleagues that Our Rescue is Qanon-adjacent are slanderous and false." She calls it a single report from a "no longer active" website.
