If you got tear gassed by federal agents today, it was so Bovino and friends could cruise around creating social media content.

Shocked face: FBI reveals how mistaken identity by ICE led to chase, shooting of Venezuelan immigrant in north Minneapolis www.startribune.com/fbi-reveals-...
![In a sworn affidavit, FBI Special Agent Timothy Schanz provides details that contradict what U.S. Department of Homeland Security [DHS] officials initially stated - and later repeated for
several days - about the highly charged encounter.
Schanz's account shows how an attempted traffic stop by two ICE agents did not involve the man they ultimately shot, 34-year- old Julio Cesar Sosa-Celis. The newly unsealed records more closely align with witness accounts provided to the Minnesota

I joined agriculture leaders from across the state today in Mankato for the Minnesota Ag Expo. Minnesota farmers are the backbone of our economy, and we must ensure they have what they need to thrive—strong markets and stable trade policies.

If you live in Minnesota and you want to help, adopt a couple ethnic restaurants. Remote work from there, go to lunch there, have a snack there, bring friends. Sit by the windows. Be a presence.

It seems like cutting education and forcing PTO moms to fund schools the past 40 years has had some unintended consequences for Republicans.
It is tough here right now in Minneapolis but Greg Bovino crying to the paper about how he’s getting his ass handed to him by plant sale moms has been a real pick me up

Bovino Fact Check
Bovino: "Mayor Frey actually told his police force to fight federal agents in the city."
Never happened.
Bovino: "You should have seen the look on O'Brian's face - Chief O'Brian - his eyebrows actually raised at that one."
Chief's name is O'Hara - Brian O'Hara.

Good to see approval so high but also I want to say for the hundredth time that what gets covered in the media as "protests" in the Twin Cities is very often "people going about their day and then running to help when they see federal agents trying to kidnap their neighbors"
