The president’s obsession with the Somali community and me is really unhealthy and creepy. He is trying to deflect from his failures and sinking approval ratings. Sorry, Trump, we all see through your attempts to hide from your broken promises.

Minnesota doesn’t just welcome refugees, they sent one to Congress. 💪🏽

Mohammed Zaher Ibrahim was finally released after being unjustly imprisoned for over nine months in an Israeli prison.

My heart is filled with gratitude for every single person who spoke out and fought to bring him home.

I am a citizen and so are majority of Somalis in America. Good luck celebrating a policy change that really doesn’t have much impact on the Somalis you love to hate. We are here to stay 💁🏽‍♀️

None of this is normal.

Mohammed Zaher Ibrahim's trial is this Sunday. He is a 16-year-old Palestinian-American citizen who is unjustly imprisoned.

He has lost 1/4 of his body weight in prison.

The Israeli government must release him immediately.

Our city deserves new leadership.

I encourage you to rank Omar Fateh first and also rank DeWayne Davis and Jazz Hampton.

I joined the Slate for Change door knock launch and I’m beyond hopeful we’re going to build a city that works for all of us.

Congratulations to Catherine on her historic victory as the next President of Ireland. I know she will lead with compassion, peace, and justice at the forefront. 

This is a win for all of humanity! 🇮🇪 🙌🏽

15 days into the government shutdown.

We cannot allow Trump to throw millions off their healthcare or raise premiums by 75% just to hand out tax breaks to his billionaire donors.

This is where we are ⬇️

Minneapolis deserves a champion for working people.

This is our opportunity to build a city where every single resident can thrive. I can’t wait to cast my ballot for my friend and colleague, Omar Fateh, as my first choice for mayor by November 4th, and I hope you will join me.

It is outrageous that the United States spends more on its military than the next 9 countries combined.

Imagine if we stopped spending half of the nearly $1 trillion Pentagon budget and invested it in healthcare, education, and housing instead.

Trump doesn’t understand you can’t bully a Black woman. We’re built different.💪🏽

From denying Somalia had a president to making up a story, President Trump is a lying buffoon. No one should take this embarrassing fool seriously
September 26, 2025 at 1:45 AM
You can’t make this shit up. Our president is embarrassing.

To the haters: The one thing you're not going to succeed in is silencing my voice. 💅🏽

I'm grateful to represent great Americans who have faith in me to carry their voice, to fight, and to ensure that they can afford their lives.

Fun fact: Nancy Mace is trying to censure me over comments I never said.
 
Her res does not contain a single quote from me because she couldn’t find any.
 
Unlike her, I have routinely condemned political violence, no matter the political ideology.

Data isn’t vibes. If you need vibes, check out the hate filled comments the rightwing will leave on this post and all my posts.

RELEASE. THE. FILES.

The Israeli government is holding Mohammed Zaher Ibrahim, a 16-year-old Palestinian-American citizen, in prison. He has been held without trial for over six months.

He must be released.

Reminder: Donald Trump has voted by mail in multiple elections. 

The vote-by-mail fraud rate is 0.00006%.

This isn’t about election integrity, it is a way to disenfranchise millions of voters.
