I believe this was the point. They were jealous of our economy, good people and our community and they created chaos to destroy it. It will be work, but we are resilient and much much smarter than they are #minnesotastrong
Operation Metro Surge resulted in a $203 million impact on Minneapolis. Every penny is a loss to the City’s economy, people’s livelihoods, shelter and food security. Read more about the preliminary impact assessment released by the City: https://t.co/wm3YPJuHNF

Minneapolis was economically devastated by Operation Metro Surge, writes James Beard-winning Oglala Lakota chef Sean Sherman, suffering $10-$20 million in weekly losses. "This isn't just immigration enforcement. This is economic sabotage wrapped in racism."

Minnesota @GovTimWalz: The federal government needs to pay for what they broke here. There are going to be accountability on things that happened, but one of them is the incredible and immense cost borne by the people of this state. The federal government needs to be responsible.

So true! Our community is tragically damaged. The small businesses are on life support. Our immigrant neighbors are still emotionally and financially scarred. But we can and will support the rebuild.
The "Metro Surge" may be ending here, but it will happen elsewhere. Hundreds remain trapped in horrific conditions, and Minnesota is dramatically scarred. Moving the harm doesn’t erase the damage. This is not justice.

Republicans are still trying to pass the SAVE Act—a bill that would make it harder to vote and disenfranchise millions of Americans. Join @RedistrictAct and tell your member of Congress to vote no: https://t.co/Cc4JHKr73Q

The bravery, resilience and sacrifice our city to protect and support vulnerable communities show Minneapolis’ values. We’re honored the city was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize – and it’s because of your courageous solidarity to promote democracy, human rights and peace.

There is so much absolute hell bending shit going on right now. Maybe it's always been like this & we were oblivious to it-definitely true of the Epstein cartel-but it feels like the devil took over & infiltrated millions & convinced them they were doing God's work.

Time for them to go !
The faces of cowardice. The faces who would have Minnesota surrender to an authoritarian trying to take over state elections in violation of the Constitution. NOT going to happen! @RepPeteStauber

More truth
I need to sound the alarm on the economic impacts of ice operations on our region. Also to the ice agents pulling fire alarms at apartment buildings to lure people outside? And following and boxing in school buses? That’s little d energy.

There’s a clear eugenics throughline in the Epstein network, and it is getting missed in the noise of the shocking headlines. The entire network is based on selective recruitment, racialized hierarchy, and an obsession with genetics and “elite” reproduction. Survivors described
This is sworn testimony. Epstein instructed girls to bring him “other girls.” He specified preferences. Thin. Blonde. Attractive. The younger the better. She was 15. When a girl brought someone he didn’t want, he still paid her but refused to let that child touch him. This is

Don't let them keep the files secret! @AmberWoods100 is doing phenomenal work. Follow her and share so that the algorithm doesn't win!
Yesterday reached over 11 million people. Today I’m largely invisible in timelines. That contrast speaks for itself. Make sure you’re following me for the Epstein reporting they want to bury.

There's so much corruption going on in this administration it is impossible to keep up. Just want this nightmare to end, but the brainwashed sheep literally can't comprehend they're going down with this ship .
In any other time or presidency, this story. reported by @WSJ, would be an earthquake of a scandal. The size, scope and implications of it are unprecedented and mind-boggling. But will this Congress, which brayed endlessly about the "Biden crime family," probe it? Not a chance.

Follow her. She is tearing open it all and we need everyone to see it and share it.
As the weight of these Epstein revelations hits all of us at once, I’m deeply thankful for this community. For believing survivors and believing in my reporting when it wasn’t easy or popular. ✊🏼🖤
