Whatever you do, do NOT talk loudly about MPD cops being on their phones. They do not like that and will approach you, confront you, tell you that they don’t care about your opinion, and then stare at you until you leave while calling you a child.

How does this work? I’ve personally seen cars drive into large protests and MPD hasn’t done shit. But a nazi shows up with private security that is assaulting the media and protesters and MPD helps them? How do they even begin the mental gymnastics?

1) MPD got a 22% raise in their latest contract. 2) MPD has apparently not managed to stay in budget for SEVEN YEARS. 3) They are blowing their budget by tens of millions of dollars a year. We are draining Minneapolis dry to pay for an MPD that refused to answer the phone all winter.

DNR listening session for the Tamarack Nickel-Copper-Cobalt Mine. Comments are 3 to 1 against the mine with a wide range of folks opposing it (indigenous, climate activists, people who care about the environment). That’s in contrast to politicians and Talon employees telling everyone it’ll be fine.

Whenever I write it out in the form of a timeline it makes me wonder if Jacob Frey is better at winning mayoral elections than he is at being mayor.
2017 Frey campaign winning message, against an incumbent: police and crime are the "mayor's job" and Minneapolis is "in the headlines for the wrong reasons."

2019: Frey's police chief assures city council and the public that he has imbued MPD culture with respect for "sanctity of life" and a commitment to being "truthful"

2020: turns out MPD has no respect for sanctity of life or truthfulness.

2021 Frey campaign winning message: if it wasn't for those meddling 13 bosses on the city council!

2021 election: Frey wins strong mayor powers. Plus he retains his 100% authority over police. He now has more power than any mayor before him. He's in control of all elements of city administration.

2022-2025: somehow the extra strong mayor powers don't solve the city's biggest problems.

2022: no knock MPD raid kills Amir Locke a month into 2nd term, despite Frey claims during previous year's campaign he had banned the practice.

2024: council approves record police raises and a police budget that's up $50 million since 2022.

2025 Frey campaign message: get this council off my back already!

Craziness. Republicans in Minnesota basically doing a little coup, electing a speaker with no quorum, as DFLers have boycotted the start of #mnleg session. They are going against the Secretary of States ruling of no quorum.

This man and a small group of capitol police officers singlehandedly saved our democracy four years ago. In November, 77 million Americans said "to hell with them" and voted for the insurrectionists. Your "Back the Blue" flags are a pathetic disgrace and your patriotism is bullsh*t.

Literally none of the headlines about the woman burned alive on the subway include the fact that at least one NYPD officer looked on and did nothing. So a reminder: - Cops feel zero obligation to protect you - Press can't be trusted to hold cops accountable, they're effectively the police PR wing

This is the statement that my office and official accounts sent out in response to Mayor Frey announcing his intent to veto the entire 2025 City budget. I will work my hardest to make sure we overturn this veto so that City services aren’t impacted and City employees jobs aren’t put in jeopardy.
“The fact that the Mayor is willing to veto the entire 2025 City budget because his co-equal branch of government made amendments that accounted for less than 2% of the total $1.88 billion City budget is absurd. Council Members learned of Mayor Frey’s intention to veto through a press release, before he even received the formal budget packet from the Clerk’s office at the time of his announcement. This is unfortunately part of a larger pattern of an unwillingness to work with the Legislative branch of the City. The fact that the Mayor is willing to risk the jobs of over 4,000 City employees and the reduction of basic City services in order to try and score political points is absolutely disheartening. The final budget was passed with 10 votes last night and 62 amendments passed with at least supermajority support. I will do everything in my power to work with my colleagues to overturn this reckless veto.”
