Adopt A Rent β€” Stand With Minnesota Donate your Delta Skymiles to get people home from Texas

Another addition to the website to help us built *systems* and not just have me trying to do everything alone:

If you'd like to adopt a rent that you can either *cover immediately* and fundraise for, or just pay outright, please fill out this form and we will contact you via Signal.

We've paid 12 families rents in less than two hours.

I will keep taking signal requests for people that want to do this because it's the first thing that is working pretty seamlessly.

I said we were done asking for rent money. But today I heard the horrifying fact that there are zero family shelter beds in the entire state of Minnesota. So we are going to try something new.

We are going to do peer to peer funding. You take on urgent‼️ funding for one family. You send to them.

ICE continues to separate children from their parents in Powderhorn Park. Alex was kidnapped by ICE on his way to work. Let’s reunite him with his son & family.

Luz has been a strong advocate for our immigrant community in MN and now her son has to grow up without his father.

Twin Cities ICE Watch / Migra Watch - Wednesday, Dec 3, 2025 at 6pm CT

The Twin Cities is currently under federal occupation.  Join States at the Core and Protect RP to learn important lessons from direct experiences on the ground in the neighborhoods in Chicago that most stood up to an even more intense Federal invasion from "Operation Midway Blitz"

This training will share important skills for documenting ICE activity and supporting neighbors in your community. ICE Watch is a key strategy being used by groups across the country to protect their communities against aggressive activity by ICE agents. Practicing ICE Watch protects our neighborhoods from immigration enforcement by ensuring our community members know their rights, have a plan, and know how to act in the event of targeting by ICE.  In addition to covering the basics of ICE Watch, we will discuss new analysis on ICE operations and safety guidance.

When: Dec 3, 2025 06:00 PM Central Time

A Trump supporter started murdering his way through an assassination list of Democratic law makers FIVE MONTHS AGO. He murdered my colleague Melissa Hortman, and her husband Mark β€” and attempted to assassinate my dear friend John Hoffman and his wife Yvette. I was also on the hit list. WTF

I’m sharing this All of Mpls email because I hope everyone (including journalists - especially you) will contrast Frey supporters’ rhetoric (and ex-Frey staffer Jacob Hill here) with the sincere testimony of Maddie Love. This kind of shitty, cynical game-playing is a reason a lot of us oppose Frey.

Brehm’s three $250 donations to Minneapolis mayor Jacob Frey in 2023-24.

Brehm’s three $250 donations to Minneapolis mayor Jacob Frey in 2023-24.

Ethically, Andy Brehm should tell readers he’s a Jacob Frey donor. Journalistically, Star Tribune editors must. www.startribune.com/dsa-public-s...

If the guy who writes my favorite Frey PAC email blasts was at the mic calling for a quorum check as the Frey campaign is texting supporters to leave the convention, am I obligated to play dumb about it?

I know Omar’s answer.
At every point during his service, he has stood for the interests of working people & against corporations. Even when it has been hard, even when it’s been unpopular.

Omar has a joyful vision of a Minneapolis where everyone can thrive & afford their lives

Make no mistake, we cannot have an economy that serves the needs of working people AND the needs of billionaires and corporations.

I confront this reality every day in my work on the tax committee.

The Minneapolis mayor has to answer similar questions: which side are you on?

15.07.2025 17:53 β€” πŸ‘ 13    πŸ” 5    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

We have Elon, pharma, big oil and big tech at the federal level. Amazon, Google and Meta pushing their dirty data centers at the state. Billionaire sports team owners and developers looking for a local handout.

These are all part of the same story.

I’m excited to endorse my friend and colleague Omar Fateh to be our next Mayor.
There are many reasons in this moment, but one stands out.

Corporate power is on the march in our economy and our democracy. We need people at every level to fight like our lives depend on it. 🧡

There is no more principled, strategic, caring, grounded leader at the Legislature than @paulcumings.bsky.social

District 53 will be so so lucky to have him. Stay tuned for more. #mnleg

Just FYI, administrative warrants (like the ones used by ICE) are not judicial warrants (used by cops, signed by a judge).

You do NOT legally have to open the door for an ICE officer with an administrative warrant *no matter what the ICE officer says.*

Immediate reactions. Short version: Mitra has helped usher in a new era of progressive leaders in St Paul & Ramsey County. Both the work she accomplished as an elected official & the model she was as a progressive candidate and person has been immensely valuable for our community. 1/

For our trans fam:
The MN House has been seized by the GOP without the majority or authority to do so.
But this DOES NOT MEAN our work to protect trans healthcare or trans refuge will be undone.

Tim Walz is still our Governor. Dems will control the Senate. This is STILL a trans refuge state.

It was great meeting with Unidos MN today to discuss the work of protecting our neighbors from the threats of the incoming Trump administration. Only standing together can we support our communities and I’m glad to be in this work with Rep. @aishagomez.bsky.social and organizations like Unidos MN.
