@FrederickMelo Yes, I understand that Laos is now accepting deportees from the United States.

There is a reason why he got an Order of Removal and you know what that reason is. @FrederickMelo Why don’t you ask @amyklobuchar @TinaSmithMN @BettyMcCollum04 for comment?

@stevesi28838948 @RepBeccaB I’m not disagreeing at all about the total injustice in shooting that person.

Not at all.

It’s one reason why I haven’t seen the video; it will destroy my day.

As with Renee Good, the standard full joint investigation should be conducted.

1/ @stevesi28838948 @RepBeccaB But at this point, I am reminded of something.

It’s starting to become a pattern.

For example, early in 2020, I saw coverage of long lines in early voting etc. for primaries.

The first few primaries, okay, higher than expected turnout.

@stevesi28838948 @RepBeccaB At this point, I am just batmobiling.

I watched the Renee Good videos but I am not watching others because it’s too demoralizing.

I did participate in an ICE Watch video meeting at the beginning, but, as the article describes, I became concerned that well-meaning

1/ @stevesi28838948 @RepBeccaB individuals were being inspired or encouraged to confront armed law enforcement, rather than staying a safe distance and recording.

I am also concluding that peaceful citizens should either record or comment (shout) but not both, to avoid distraction.

@xwanyex Yes. alphanews.org/islamic-center… @xwanyex startribune.com/mn-ice-deporta…

@katrosenfield Americans expect that our federal law enforcement officers will perform their duties with professionalism.

Of course, especially given the interference by poorly informed civilians in various locations in Minnesota, mistakes will be made, but then fix them.

1/ @katrosenfield The standard, traditional joint investigation into the death of Renee Good should be conducted in the standard manner.

Remember, the sainted Obama @AGLynch @SallyQYates Administration ran out the clock on Eric Garner in Staten Island, New York.

@RapidResponse47 @JDVance @ICEgov @TriciaOhio @CMDROpAtLargeCA

@nytimes @lpolgreen is lying, falsely claiming in this Jan 19 (note dates) article that ICE detained Native Americans w/tribal IDs

1/

In Minneapolis, I Glimpsed a Civil War via @NYTOpinionnytimes.com/2026/01/19/opi… In para 29, she links to a Jan 12 @StarTribune @grove article accurately reporting tribal leaders’ claims.

One would imagine that @DHSgov would be checking records to identify any detainee who might match any description of the missing persons.

@BishopBarron Thank you; of course, #1A prohibits enacting religious doctrine into government policy.

Unfortunately, radicals in the Twin Cities insist on protecting child sex offenders.

I’ve been looking for various @StarTribune stories featuring model beneficiaries of government programs, or fully supporting themselves in the private sector.

Still waiting. @Ivantheboomer @deenafaywinter @nickshirleyy @elonmusk @StarTribune x.com/dolesbianstip/… x.com/dolesbianstip/…

@ImFiredUp2 @SandraFeistMN @IngrahamAngle @CMDROpAtLargeCA @CMDROpAtLargeCA

Thank you for everything that you are doing.

May I respectfully suggest that you confine your public comments to immigration law enforcement and your other official duties?

This can include effects on the labor market when unskilled labor returns home.

1/ @ImFiredUp2 @SandraFeistMN @IngrahamAngle @CMDROpAtLargeCA Similarly, by enforcing current law re removal of noncitizens with criminal convictions, there’s probably an effect on current crime, but we have to assume that Congress knew what it was doing, and why, when they enacted the law.

Great job re 8 USC 1325.

@mplsgordon2 @OrangeisGood50 @RealJMPeterman Based on anyone’s lived experience, the true number of persons of Somali heritage living in Minnesota is easily triple any supposedly ‘official’ figure from any level of government, or legacy media.

International refugees settled in MN, and descendants

1/ @mplsgordon2 @OrangeisGood50 @RealJMPeterman @deenafaywinter

Secondary migration of international refugees to MN from other states, and descendants

Regular immigrants, both directly to MN and secondary migration, and descendants

US-born persons (outside MN) of Somali heritage, who move to MN, like @OmarFatehMN

@livefreejim @JennaReports @mngop It’s very simple.

Sometimes, things can backfire.

In 2012, the Minnesota state constitutional amendment against gay marriage backfired on @mngop which lost the referendum and handed DFL the trifecta which enacted gay marriage in Minnesota.

1/ @livefreejim @JennaReports @mngop In 2026, Minnesota elects the Governor and all the state constitutional offices to four year terms.

Also the State Senate and State House.

I think it’s essential for MNGOP to win those.

Trying to recall Walz less than a year before his term ends would backfire.

@legler_aaron @HennepinAtty @MaryMoriarty is quite correct that this is wrong, but Minnesota’s Somali community is very proud of its solidarity and cohesion, so it’s no surprise that the larger Somali community is being associated with its most famous members’ publicly-funded businesses and activities. @legler_aaron @HennepinAtty @MaryMoriarty More Somali community cohesion.

@daveweigel @nytimes @Fahrenthold’s initial story used “East African immigrants” and didn’t mention “Somalis” at all. nytimes.com/2022/03/08/us/… @daveweigel @nytimes @Fahrenthold Here’s former Minnesota Republican Governor @TimPawlenty.

@JoeGayHistorian I don’t have an opinion on this.

I do know that, if there really were many men (of whatever sexual orientations) who were into dating transwomen, then those transwomen would be having so much hot, steamy sex with them, that they’d have abandoned the Internet, apps, etc. @JoeGayHistorian Instead, the very fact that transwomen are constantly complaining that “men” don’t wish to date them, means exactly that:

The men to whom you are attracted, are not attracted to you enough to date you.

That’s your problem, not men’s problem and not society’s problem.

@Chris4Perkins2 The left has destroyed our democracy by ignoring our laws. nytimes.com/2025/12/07/us/… @Chris4Perkins2 theatlantic.com/magazine/archi…

@SarahPierceEsq Thank you for your service.

Sadly, the Biden Administration abused humanitarian parole and lied to so many people that they could stay in the United States by abusing asylum.

Liberals on @VisitMV didn’t care.

No surprise that Americans have hardened their hearts. @SarahPierceEsq @VisitMV Congress never authorized this. theatlantic.com/magazine/archi…

@thauserkstp @SFVet2024 @DeRushaJ @ChadHartmanShow How many people of Somali heritage live in Minnesota?

Based on anyone’s lived experience, the true number is at least three times any ‘official’ figure from any level of government or legacy media.

Otherwise, per transgender logic, so few people cannot be “essential.” @thauserkstp @SFVet2024 @DeRushaJ @ChadHartmanShow mncompass.org/topics/demogra…

@RyanFaircloth @Allie_Kite Based on everyone’s lived experience, the true population of persons of Somali heritage in Minnesota is at least triple any official figure.

The old figure 80,000 hasn’t been updated in years and doesn’t even include normal population growth - children.

mncompass.org/topics/demogra… @RyanFaircloth @Allie_Kite The true figure includes:

International refugees settled in MN, descendants

International refugees settled in USA outside MN, moved to MN - secondary migration, descendants

US-born (outside MN) descendants of refugees and immigrants - domestic migration, descendants
