People keep saying they can't wait until November to vote out the current #Mpls city council.
Do you know who's running to replace them? If you actually think sane people are running, please think again. The regime + media that funnels candidates into the system gives you this. ImageImageImageImage
ICYMI, the #WinstonSmith statement "they/them" is referring to is one (of many) Smith posted on social media inciting people to commit violence against police, like this one.

Ward 1 replacement candidates:
--One wants to divest from police.
--The other offers no public safety solutions. ImageImage
Ward 2 replacement candidates:
--One offers no public safety solutions.
--Another wants to reduce and further divest from police.
--The other wants to throw more money at the failed and unaccountable Office of Violence Prevention (OVP). ImageImageImage
Ward 3 replacement candidates:
--Mike Rainville, just one of the tired Minneapolis good ol' boys club trying to sound woke.
--Merv Moorhead can't be bothered to post any platform priorities whatsoever, and could only muster support for weak-a** Jacob Frey's fake safety plan. ImageImage

THREAD: Minnesota "non-profit" and NGO industrial complex [collusion and corruption]

1/
This has been known, but Peggy Flanagan recently publicly let the veil slip by revealing how much of the "state's" work is being handed off to NPs and NGOs.

2/
Many of those "non-profits" and NGOs get significant funding from the state and/or federal government (taxpayers) through grants, awards, allocations, etc. And, as we've started seeing more recently, through direct allocations from the legislature to their pets [vote harvesters], as we waved bye-bye to $18 billion dollars stolen from taxpayers.

Tim and Peggy can't manage their way out of a wet paper bag, as evidenced by the massive defrauding of government programs in this state, and complete lack of oversight and accountability in numerous state agencies. So, they hand off the bulk of their work to the NPs and NGOs, with handsome financial payoffs, in exchange for votes, which keeps them in power and the funds rolling out to the NPs/NGOs, and on and on and on in a vicious cycle of collusion and corruption.

That's why Tim Walz and Peggy Flanagan were so panicked at that late January press conference (above) when Trump first tried to pause federal spending.
Watch the entire presser here: youtube.com/live/HUPPEO0lW…

Without significant taxpayer funds flowing to the copious NPs and NGOs in this state, the regime would literally have nothing, no base, no vote buying or harvesting networks. They would collapse. The regime's support is not organic, it's purchased.
3/
This is a new interview with @DataRepublican who has exposed the NGO grift on a national scale in the last few months. This will help you understand how deep and far this goes. She's now devoting energy toward helping DOGE root out the rot.

THREAD: Boycott sanctuary city Minneapolis

The @CityMinneapolis government is doubling down on supporting its status as a sanctuary city by funding/harboring illegal immigrants, as well as vowing to fight various presidential Executive Orders by clinging to identity politics/DEI, and "transgender" ideology and agendas, as evidenced by a message sent to city staff this week by COO Margaret Anderson Kelliher.

One way to push back on this is by denying financial support to the city by refusing to shop, dine, or attend sporting events in the city. When you spend money here, they win.

Not only will you deny them tax revenue, but when business owners feel the pinch of lost revenue, they may decide to push back on the administration. It takes work, but go out of your way to let businesses know that you skipped their business and chose a venue outside the city due to Minneapolis's sanctuary policies.

h/t @lizcollin for breaking this ThursdayImage
2/ @MayorFrey also confirmed recently that supporting illegal aliens is more important than lowering your taxes (your taxes go up due to increased city expenses for supporting illegal aliens through housing, financial support, strain on resources, etc).
3/
Members of Congress urge @MayorFrey to put the safety of citizens over his virtue signaling for illegal aliens.

Minneapolis Police Update Policy Regarding Authority in Immigration Matters

January 16, 2025, Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara announced today that the Minneapolis Police Department policy related to Police Authority in Immigration Matters has been updated. The policy has been in practice at MPD for more than 20 years and clearly states the MPD will not be involved in the enforcement of federal immigration law.

Chief O'Hara said the policy update is designed to offer clear guidance to officers during a time when community concerns are particularly prominent. The updated policy includes revised language, adds a section on MPD U Visa/T Visa Certification, and provides examples of acceptable identification forms, such as foreign government-issued ID cards, consular identification cards, and national ID cards.

“I recognize that the fear of deportation prevents some people from calling police in times of need or to report crime," said Chief O'Hara. “I want to be clear that enforcement of civil immigration laws falls exclusively with the federal government—it is not the job of the MPD. Any participation in immigration enforcement would have a chilling effect on our commitment to bias-free, community-oriented policing.  I also want to be clear that the MPD will continue to address any criminal behavior that threatens the safety or wellbeing of others—regardless of immigration status.”

The updated policy explicitly states that MPD does not operate its programs for the purpose of enforcing federal immigration laws. It also prohibits officers from questioning any person about their immigration status. This policy aligns with Minneapolis Ordinance § 19.30 which prohibits undertaking “any law enforcement action for the purpose of detecting the presence of undocumented persons, or to verify immigrations status,” with the narrow exception of enforcing criminal laws related to human trafficking and smuggling where immigration status is an element of the crime.
