Happy Somali Independence Day!
Here in Minnesota, home to one of the largest Somali communities in the United States, we celebrate the resilience, culture, and leadership that continue to enrich our city and community.
Talo.
Odayga halka sanno oo uu calmaday ha loo cimaamado, isna muddadaas ha ogolaado in talada lala yeesho oo badbaadada dalka dhexda soo dhigo.
Doorasho (nooceey doonto) waxaa natiijadeeda xalaaleeya ama kalsoonida ka dila waa cidda go’aamisa.
GARSOOR LAGU WADA KALSOON YAHAY.
Shame on you, @Abdijaliilsamow, you pathetic coward. I can’t even wrap my head around how low you’ve sunk by cancelling Yasmin Abdi’s interview and flat-out refusing to air it just because she isn’t wearing a hijab. Typical Somali male garbage the second you spot a successful Somali woman thriving, you pathetic losers scramble to tear her down and sabotage her.
Let’s get this straight Yasmin Abdi didn’t beg you for an interview or crawl to appear on her podcast. No, you chased after her and begged for the spot. She’s a powerhouse: a renowned technical advisor in security, privacy, and data protection with over seven years crushing it at Snap, Meta, and Google. She co-founded Meemo, that AI-powered app you clowns could never dream of building, which Coinbase snapped up for $95 million. The tech she helped create now reaches and protects 850 million users worldwide.
Word of brutal advice to any successful Somali woman out there: steer clear of Somali men’s podcasts. They’re run by absolute devils who seethe with hatred for progressive, accomplished women like you. Stay far away from their toxic, insecure nonsense.
I know @ProfAbdiSamatar is pleased today, but it won’t be complete until every UAE-backed local mercenary and collaborator is removed from our country.
#BREAKING: “The United Arab Emirates has not treated us as a responsible state. We have asked them to stop the divisive approach they have taken toward us, and that is why we annulled all agreements with the #UAE,” Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud said.
I firmly reject PM Netanyahu’s declaration recognizing Somaliland. This violates international law and threatens Somalia’s sovereignty and unity. We stand united with the Somali nation to defend our territorial integrity. 🇸🇴 #Somalia
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and local faith leaders spoke out on Thursday in response to President Donald Trump's comments about the Somali community. Frey highlighted the community’s strength and resilience, saying, “When you come for one of us, you come for all of us.”

I’m pleased to be part of this historic moment in Beijing — the Global Leaders’ Meeting on Women. Under the leadership of H.E. President Xi Jinping, China once again reaffirmed its commitment to gender equality and global cooperation on women’s empowerment.
Today marks the eighth anniversary of the 14 October 2017 attack in Mogadishu – a tragedy that caused immense loss, suffering and destruction, with hundreds of civilians killed and injured.
The @UN family in Somalia remembers the bombing's victims and survivors, and reaffirms its solidarity with the people of Somalia against all acts of terrorism.
