The Minnesota Star Tribune, @mprnews.org @minnesotareformer.com , @spokesmanrecorder.bsky.social, @sahanjournal.bsky.social, Center for Broadcast Journalism and Minnesota Newspaper Association today released the following statement:
A Minnesota woman observing ICE agents in her car was cornered on one-way streets. An agent approached, called her by name—citing facial recognition. Days later, her Global Entry and TSA privileges were revoked, with no explanation.
Protesters carried a giant rendition of the U.S. Constitution through downtown Minneapolis on Friday, chanting "ICE out now."

Trump is arresting the storytellers to try and hide the story that continues on the ground in #Minnesota. Don’t let them. Believe your eyes.
The National Basketball Players Association has released a statement on the killings in Minneapolis:
“Following the news of yet another fatal shooting in Minneapolis, a city that has been on the forefront of fight against injustices, NBA players can no longer remain silent”
The majority of organizing happening in Minnesota isn’t just peaceful, it’s INVISIBLE. Moms showing up who won’t be interviewed on TV, people whose ICE patrols don’t turn into viral video. The grocery runs, the donations, the people filming bc they happen to be there. Please remember this.
“Unity isn’t neutral. Unity that refuses to name violence is just loyalty to the ones holding the weapons.”

Damn proud of Minnesota.
I encourage you to watch this video of Alex Pretti giving a final send off to a veteran he cared for at the #Minnesota VA Hospital. Be angry about the way he died, and moved to Action by way he lived.
A video of Alex Pretti reading out the final salute of an unnamed veteran he cared for until the end of his life in the ICU, posted to Facebook by his son.

The Minneapolis House delegation statement on today’s horrific events:
“It’s time to be brutally honest about what is happening and choose what we, the people, will do about it. Institutions will not save American democracy; only the people will.”

Rep. Emma Greenman with an important message on the fifth anniversary of the January 6th attack on the Capitol:
Just once I'd like to wake up to people freaking out for good reasons
Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.
Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.
Donald Trump has brought his lawlessness to Minnesota, sending ICE agents here to divide and terrorize our communities.
But House DFLers will always stand with our neighbors.
We are Minnesotans. And Minnesotans have each other’s backs.
I am so furious right now.
AGs across the country fought to get SNAP benefits.
Federal workers suffered with weeks of no pay.
Millions of people showed up to protest Trump.
Democrats showed up in record numbers at the polls to say 'we've got your back!'
And you caved for literally nothing.

@emmagreenman.bsky.social answers a question about efforts to suppress free speech and suppress our voice and our votes.
“Fear is contagious but so is courage. We have to have courage.”
The “SAVE Act” that passed the US House on Thursday is a 🚨five alarm fire🚨 for representative democracy. It threatens the freedoms to vote of every eligible voter. You can read our shared statement on behalf of the #mnleg Inclusive Democracy Caucus here: www.house.mn.gov/members/prof...
Stopping Claim Sharks is common sense. Don’t let predators steal veteran benefits!
@emmagreenman.bsky.social speaking today at the MN Capitol:
Veterans Day on the Hill! We passed a Veterans budget, but work continues to pass one of the MDVA's key priorities this session - to address the proliferation of predatory claim sharks who usurp veterans benefits. This urgent effort is being led by the indefatigable @emmagreenman.bsky.social. #mnleg
💯 this
One of the reasons Senator Booker was so able to capture the hearts & souls of all of us in the delivery of this epic 25+ hr speech is because it was genuine and authentic. This is who this man is.
