  1. #Voting would be so great if there were #workingclass people running for office without egos, ambition, or desire to accumulate #power and #wealth. I bet the next voting round has the lowest turnout ever. but I’m often wrong.
    Could be projection. I’m def all done voting for dems or republicans. they can go jump in a lake together to escape the heat. Except #Ilhan and #SummerLee They’re my friends.

  2. A man attacked Representative #Ilhan #Omar during a town hall in Minneapolis on Tuesday evening,

    spraying her with a strong-smelling liquid before being tackled by security.

    Ms. Omar, a Democrat who represents part of Minneapolis and has been a frequent target of Trump, was visibly shaken,
    but continued speaking after a brief pause.
    In the town hall, she called for
    ✅ abolishing U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and impeaching the homeland security secretary, Kristi Noem, who has come under fire for making false statements regarding the killing of Mr. Pretti.

    Though Trump has taken less of a hard line about the killing than Ms. Noem and some other members of his administration,
    he again cast blame Tuesday on Mr. Pretti for carrying a legally permitted weapon that was seized from him before he was fatally shot.
    “You can’t walk in with guns,” Mr. Trump told reporters, now challenging the Second Amendment

  3. Three Democratic members of Congress from Minnesota,
    including House representative
    #Ilhan #Omar, were ❌ blocked from entering an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention center located near #Minneapolis on Saturday morning.

    incident took place near the Whipple federal building in the Twin Cities
    as clashes and demonstrations continued after the shooting death of 37-year-old #Renee #Good by an #ICE agent in south Minneapolis earlier in the week.

    During a press briefing, Omar explained that they were initially allowed inside the facility
    but were soon told to leave.
    "Shortly after we were let in, two officials came in and said that they received the message that we were 💥no longer allowed to be in the building and that they were rescinding our invitation to come in and declining any further access to the building,” she said.

  4. Homeland Security Secretary
    #Kristi #Noem had a baffling excuse Wednesday for a
    ⚠️federal agent shooting a U.S. citizen ⚠️
    protesting an ICE operation in #Minneapolis, Minnesota.

    Speaking from Brownsville, Texas, #Noem claimed that the officer had been responding to “an act of domestic terrorism.”
    The secretary claimed that the victim had “attacked” a group of federal officers whose vehicle was stuck in the snow, attempting to “run them over and ram them with her vehicle.” An officer had “defensively shot to protect himself and the people around him” and killed the woman, Noem said.

    ⭐️Witnesses reported seeing something entirely different.

    Emily Heller, a Minneapolis resident, claimed that the woman had been blocking traffic with her car as part of the protest earlier Wednesday.
    When the woman tried to turn her car around, an ICE agent standing in front of her car leaned over the hood and 🆘 shot her in the face at least three times.

    Another resident, Aidan Perzana, told Fox9 that he’d seen three ICE agents attempt to detain the driver.
    When the vehicle suddenly reversed and then pulled away from the officers,
    one of the agents shot through the driver’s side window three times.

    Minnesota Representative #Ilhan #Omar indicated that the deceased victim was not only a U.S. citizen,
    but a legal observer.

    A video of the incident appeared to show that the woman’s car did not move toward the ICE officers,
    but away from them.

    ❌Despite these stories, it seems that the Trump administration intends to run with its claim that the victim was a so-called “domestic terrorist.”

    White House deputy Chief of Staff #Stephen #Miller also claimed that the victim had committed a federal crime. “Democrats continue to lend aid and comfort to domestic terrorism,” Miller wrote on X, responding to Minnesota Senator #Tina #Smith’s plea for ICE to leave Minneapolis following the incident.

    Assistant DHS Secretary #Tricia #McLaughlin, who has spent the last several months spinning blatant #lies about immigration officers’ violent interactions with civilians, described the victim as a “violent rioter” who was attempting to kill the federal agents.

    “This is the direct consequence of constant attacks and demonization of our officers by sanctuary politicians who fuel and encourage rampant assaults on our law enforcement,” McLaughlin wrote on X.

  9. Keep voting, #Minnesota .

    And again, #Minneapolis:

    Vote for #Ilhan Omar.

    Addendum:

    Representative Omar has won the Democratic party primary in Minneapolis by a large margin - sahanjournal.com/democracy-pol

    Well done, Minneapolis.

    And may there be an investigation of the reported legal violations by Don Samuels' campaign.

  10. It is primary election day today in #Minnesota .

    My vote for Harris for VP has been duly reassigned to be for Harris for POTUS and Walz for VP.

    And for those in #Minneapolis :

    This is a reminder to vote for #Ilhan Omar if you have not voted already.

  11. 🤔 🙄 . This is what white supremacy looks like.

    Rep. #Ilhan #Omar on Foreign Affairs removal vote: "It’s motivated by the fact that many of these members don’t believe a Muslim, a refugee, an African should even be in Congress, let alone have the opportunity to serve on the Foreign Affairs Committee."
