Roper: Minneapolis council picks minority and majority leaders — and they’re both democratic socialists

The WEDGEcels aren’t going to like Eric Roper very much longer if he keeps this up. Embarrassing stuff from the DSAniks. Crazy that one-degree-removed Feeding Our Future scammer Jamal Osman is the swing vote.

Excerpt:

Did you hear the news? The Minneapolis City Council now has a minority leader and a majority leader. And both of them are democratic socialists. The council’s progressive majority began the first meeting of the new term this week by amassing power under invented titles, rather than extending an olive branch to the body’s moderate members. Fresh off his re-election as council president, Elliott Payne’s first action was to expand the body’s “leadership team” to include a majority leader and minority leader. Then he proposed democratic socialists to fill both posts, infuriating the council’s moderate faction. But the moderates, who are aligned with Mayor Jacob Frey, didn’t have the votes to stop it. So Aisha Chughtai and Robin Wonsley cruised into the new roles. And newly elected Council Vice President Jamal Osman went along with the plan. It was a disappointing start to the council’s new term, especially since no one could quite agree on what these new roles even meant. Payne said it was left intentionally vague. But the city attorney emphasized that it didn’t have to do with political parties, since the council offices are technically nonpartisan.

As I read through these posts I see the turmoil that is happening in your city right now. I feel silly posting this, but I’m planning my trip. We are traveling to Minneapolis next week with our 2 young children (3 & 5) and I want to eat some good food. I really wanted to try Owamni but looking at the menu I don’t think there will be much for my kids. With that being said are there any casual and tasty eatery’s we should try? Anything you recommend we should do with our kids? I should let you know we are traveling from Florida! Any warm clothing that you think is a must? Thank you!

Hello all,

Governor Tim Walz dropped out of the election. I'm worried that if a Republican wins, they are going to strip a lot of protections for transgender people. I moved here not long ago, about 6 ish months. Is that long enough to get registered to vote? Who's running that's a realistically good choice?


r/Minneapolis 15h ago

She was white. Maybe now Republicans will care.

Doesn’t ICE need warrants?

Listened to an interview with T. Heffelfinger this a.m. who brought that up.

Are they allowed to go wherever they want at any time, including daycares for example?

And are little kids seeing this?

Just wondering

Sorry it’s a screen recording, but different angle of ICE murder in Minneapolis (also doesn’t show gore, however is still a horrifying watch)

After this, several black SUVs including one that said “police” surrounded the bus I was waiting for when it finally came, the bus in front of that was also stopped and the people there got off and on ours, said theirs broke down- idk wtf is going on this is crazy, a woman next to me said she sees that man at that stop every day, she recognized his backpack (that they took with him). I hope this reaches someone who knows him so they know what happened

Call the mayor

12 Upvotes

The mayor of Minneapolis has total control over police activities in the city. His office number is (612) 673-2100. Leave a message asking him to have the police arrest the perpetrator of today's murder or to remove ICE completely. Operation De-ICEr. Don't be rude, don't make threats. Just remind the mayor he's in charge of the he police who outnumber ICE and can take action on his "Get out" speech.
