Minneapolis showed up tonight. 🕯️❄️ Under the winter lights and freezing air, people gathered around a growing memorial to honor Alex Pretti—a 37-year-old ICU nurse who was killed in Minneapolis during a federal immigration enforcement operation. Flowers, candles, prayers, tears… and a whole lot of neighbors refusing to let this get brushed off like it’s normal. This is what community looks like: strangers checking on each other, sharing warmth, standing shoulder-to-shoulder in grief, and saying out loud that human life matters more than politics. We need truth, we need transparency, and we need accountability—because when agencies can kill people here at home and then control the story, that’s not “law and order.” That’s fear. Rest in power, Alex. Minneapolis won’t forget. 🕯️ #AlexPretti #Minneapolis #CandlelightVigil #Accountability #Justice #Community

This incident out of Minneapolis is raising serious questions and emotions on all sides. A 37-year-old woman, identified as Renee Nicole Good, was fatally shot by a federal immigration officer earlier today. According to reports, the shooting happened at the intersection of East 34th Street and Portland Avenue when an ICE agent fired through her vehicle’s window. The Department of Homeland Security claims the woman “weaponized her vehicle,” alleging she attempted to run over law enforcement officers. However, the circumstances surrounding the encounter are now under intense public scrutiny. On her social media, Renee described herself as an artist, mother, and wife, adding another layer of complexity and grief to an already tragic situation. As investigations continue, many are questioning use-of-force standards, transparency, and how encounters like this escalate to deadly outcomes. Others argue officer safety and intent must be considered. What’s clear is that a life was lost, a family is grieving, and the public deserves clear answers about what led to this moment. #Minneapolis #BreakingNews #ICE #UseOfForce #PublicSafety #ViralNews #CivilRights #InvestigationOngoing #JusticeQuestions

Minneapolis Somali day care break-in sparks concern

A break-in at a Somali-run day care in Minneapolis has left families and staff shaken after important documents, including children’s records and checkbooks, were stolen.

The day care has since received hateful messages, raising fears about rising anti-Somali and anti-immigrant sentiment. With Minneapolis already under scrutiny for massive fraud cases, this break-in feels like a new low for the community. How should we balance fighting fraud with protecting innocent families from backlash? #Education #Minneapolis #SomaliCommunity
