We’ve seen lots of reports of legal observers being arrested in North Minneapolis, South Minneapolis, and Eden Prairie. Exercising your first amendment right to observe is not a crime.

This is exactly why congress can’t give another penny to DHS.

U.S. Rep. Kelly Morrison said detainees at the Whipple Federal Building outside Minneapolis are sleeping on the concrete floor with tinfoil-like blankets.

Morrison was able to tour the immigration detention facility to observe conditions after a previous attempt was denied.

Trump removed his post that included a racist video portraying former President Barack Obama and former First Lady Michelle Obama as apes. Simply deleting it is not enough a public apology is warranted.

Tonight at 8:30 PM our constituent Ricky was pepper sprayed by ICE on 18th & Polk. 2 agents parked their car, got out and approached observers, started pepper spraying Ricky on public property, and then drove away and left.

Nothing is changing on the ground in Minnesota. ICE must be abolished.

WELKER: Look at these images. A protester on the ground being pepper sprayed. A 5-year-old being detained. A citizen being pulled out of his home half naked, later released upon determination he was wrongly detained. Are federal agents acting humanely?
