Say her name: Renee Good. ICE out of Minneapolis and Minnesota now.

Joint statement from Minneapolis City Council Members on an ICE agent shooting and killing Renee Nicole Good. *reposted from official accounts*

Renee Good should be alive today. I’m grateful for the strong showing of support from our community tonight. Donate to support Renee’s wife & son: www.gofundme.com/f/support-fo...

New joint statement from 11 of Minneapolis’s 13 city councilors demands that ICE leave the city

Regardless of who you are or what agency you work for, if you shoot or kill people in Minneapolis you need to be arrested immediately and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Full stop.

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

I’m honored and humbled by the vote of confidence from colleagues in electing me to continue serving as the President of the Minneapolis City Council for the next 4 years.

Now that they’ve started a war I’ve completely forgotten that they’re pedophiles.

Northeast Minneapolis Food Drive! My colleague Senator @zaynabmmohamed.bsky.social is organizing a food drive for Northeast families. Let’s help keep our neighbors fed and safe. Email [email protected] to find out how to help. Let’s meet the need!

Community observers are keeping community safe. It’s not a crime to legally observe the abuses and inhumane tactics committed by ICE. The real crimes are being committed by the federal government, which are tearing families apart. In addition to their rampant racial profiling and discrimination. 1/

He should support making MN a sanctuary state, bring back healthcare for undocumented adults, put investment into immigrant-owned businesses, enact an eviction moratorium bc our immigrant neighbors are struggling with rent, & increase rental assistance. I doubt anything happens though.

About a half-hour ago, ICE kidnapped a man from the CVS by my house. His pregnant partner was in the car waiting for him. A dozen responders showed up, but we were too late to help

Immigrant owned businesses on Central literally have their doors locked and are having to let people in individually because of all the ICE activity in the neighborhood this morning. Please go to Central Ave and support your neighbors today by giving them business and being out in community.

Went to the @doronclark.bsky.social campaign launch tonight. He’s a good egg. if you have spare dollars to support a great candidate for Mn senate, please chip in! www.doronforsenate.org

MPD assisted ICE with escorting their vehicles. One of the vehicles had a pregnant woman detained. The woman was forced out of the vehicle and was never shown a judicial warrant. MPD ENABLED A KIDNAPPING when they assisted ICE on 12/15 at 29th and Pillsbury.

Disheartening to see federal agents take two neighbors on 29th & Pillsbury. Chemical irritants were used on observers by them. MPD showed up on scene, created a pathway for these federal agents to kidnap our neighbors, and assisted with controlling the space. Disappointing and heartbreaking.

If you’re a candidate for anything and I don’t see or hear you standing up for our immigrant neighbors, you’re not getting my vote or my money. You can be public about the parts that won’t put anyone at risk. Take notes from @zaynabmmohamed.bsky.social @jchavezmpls.bsky.social @bradtabke.bsky.social

The final vote of the term for City Council was a resolution against using less lethal weapons for crowd control and supporting discipline in the police contract or discipline matrix if police officers violate the separation ordinance. Palmisano, Jenkins, & Vetaw voted no (Rainville was absent)

Late night ride back from City Hall after unanimously approving the 2026 budget. Grateful to have an escort up johnson as it was getting plowed!

Let’s do more: strengthen schools, keep all of our neighbors safe, stand up to bullies, and create housing for all. I’m working to ensure the promise of Minnesota is fulfilled. Join my re-election kickoff on Tue Dec 16 5:30 - 7:00 PM. RSVP for location: [email protected] DoronForSenate.org

Additionally, CP @elliottpayne.org, CM Osman, and I are also bringing forward an additional staff position in the Office of Immigrant and Refugee Affairs to provide community engagement and support for immigrant and refugee communities. 3/

Don’t lie, Lisa. I’ve got receipts.

Do you support ICE kidnapping our residents here in Minneapolis? All I’ve seen you do is vote for the Laken Riley Act and strip away due process from immigrants. You didn’t stick up for Minnesotans. In fact, your vote is impacting our Somali and immigrant communities heavily.

We stand with our Somali community and every immigrant community in the wake of increased federal activity in Minneapolis. We are asking you all to be safe. To support your immigrant neighbors who are fearful. To alert communities when you witness suspicious behavior.

Come join me for office hours tonight from 5-7 PM at Insight Brewing!

We are not your adversary We are your police Warped stuff from the St. Paul Police Federation. The officer’s actions were well documented. This posture is the opposite of helpful. Photos taken by MPR’s Kerem Yücel while wearing press credentials. He was one of three journalists injured.

In case you’re wondering how St Paul Police could ever treat their own residents like they did yesterday look at this unhinged statement from who the officers elect as their leaders.

The police chief says here that they have a responsibility to make sure laws aren’t being broken in the City. Well ICE does not operate lawfully, and your own police tear gassing journalists and citizens isn’t lawful either so you’re already failing at that responsibility.

There’s such a disconnect in the formulaic way Politicians make statements and respond to critical incidents. “Raises questions” “monitoring” “we need answers” There’s video and we all saw what happened. We don’t need to review and we don’t need answers. We just need leaders to take action.

Statement from President VanDassor on the actions of HSI in St Paul this morning

Watching SPPD today really shows that if we’re going to get through we need our leaders to have zero tolerance with our police on this shit. If you lack the morality that should make it abundantly clear that you shouldn’t be on the side of ICE in this moment then you’re gone immediately full stop.

All Trump wants is to make us think some people don’t have the same humanity as others. The Frey campaign and All of MPLS spent millions of dollars spreading Islamophobia for the last year doing Trump’s dirty work for him and set this up perfectly. They should be ashamed but I’m sure they don’t care

The City Council just took action on the historic Cook house on 18th Ave Ne. We referred the appeal asking to demolish the property back to staff which ensures that no demolition can occur for the next 6 months.

Today’s federal enforcement action in St. Paul was disgusting. Abolish ICE. It’s always important to question the validity of info you receive when you are told it’s not immigration enforcement/ICE. I’m thankful we had people on the ground updating us so we can let our loved ones know the truth. 1/

Kerem Yucel with incredible photos from St. Paul today. MPR has ice on record this was their operation. Just to catch folks up. In this administration, DEA = ICE. HSI=ICE. Random “Police“ on vest? That’s also ICE. www.mprnews.org/story/2025/1...

I’m excited to announce I’ll be running to continue serving as President of the Minneapolis City Council.

I fully believe in the corporate death penalty and believe we would be a better world if OpenAI lost its corporate charter and was forcibly dissolved. www.cnn.com/2025/11/06/u...

Starting my day happy that we have four more years of people forgetting the two “Ts” in Elliott Payne.

I’m glad that Brian Strahan can rejoin his family in Ward 3, where he has always lived, now that @elliottpayne.org handily beat him for in Ward 1. His pretending to live in our ward was offensive and I’m glad most Ward 1 voters saw right through it. Run against Rainville if you want to serve Brian!

It’s a good night in Ward 1. Congratulations to @elliottpayne.org and @engy5150.bsky.social! 🙌 I know you’ve got us, and we’ve got you.

Thank you, Ward 1! This strong vote of confidence is an affirmation of the work we’ve done together these last 4 years. I can’t wait to continue serving you for the next 4 years as your City Council Member.

We have 1 hour until polls close! There’s still time to go vote and make your voice heard. Start texting your friends and neighbors to make sure they’ve voted today! Find your polling place: pollfinder.sos.mn.gov

I’m kicking myself for not picking up the phone, but i just got a very sweet voicemail from @elliottpayne.org’s mom reminding me to vote and where my polling place is. She is lovely. 10/10 strategy of a very classy campaign. Polls are open til 8!

I’ve built a broad coalition of support from elected officials, unions, advocacy organizations, and neighbors. Get out and vote before 8 PM! Now is the time to start checking in with your friends and making sure they’ve voted. Find your polling location: pollfinder.sos.mn.gov

We’re having a great time at Parker Skyview knocking doors and driving folks to the polls! Find your polling location and vote by 8 PM: pollfinder.sos.mn.gov

It’s was an honor to vote to re-elect @elliottpayne.org today. Super grateful for his leadership in Minneapolis and representing Ward 1. Get out there, Minneapolis, and VOTE! Today we have a big election: city council, parks board, and mayor! Make your voice heard 🗳️

Ward 1, today is Election Day and I’m proud to be your DFL & Labor endorsed candidate. Please get out and vote today before 8 PM so I can get back to City Hall and continue getting things done for Ward 1. Find your polling place: pollfinder.sos.mn.gov

Polls are officially open, Ward 1! I’m asking for your vote as the only DFL & Labor endorsed candidate in this race. Find your polling place and get out and vote by 8 PM tonight: pollfinder.sos.mn.gov

This is why I'm ranking @dewayneforminneapolis.com, @omarfatehmn.com and Jazz Hampton for mayor. Eight years of Jacob Frey has done so much damage to our city and prevented so much progress. Frey is bad news. We deserve better! We can do better. Liam knows his stuff.

I’m proud to have built such a broad coalition of support as the only DFL & Labor endorsed candidate in this race. I’m also honored to be supported by elected officials like @ilhanmn.bsky.social, @keithellison.bsky.social, & @doronclark.bsky.social Make your plan to vote: www.elliottpayne.org/vote
