As President, I would read 10 letters a day sent to me by ordinary Americans. At the Obama Presidential Center, we’ll have some of the letters I read — and responded to — every night. I still get emotional reading them, and it’s one of my favorite exhibits.
My public safety team is working to gather information on an ICE related shooting this morning.
We will share information as we learn more. In the meantime, I ask folks to remain calm.
Funny how the GOP suddenly cares about fraud only when it can be twisted into an anti-immigrant narrative. The Feeding Our Future fraud was run by Aimee Bock, and Somali witnesses were the ones who exposed it to authorities.
Reality matters.
After 57 years, Mogadishu witnesses a proud & historic moment as Somali citizens cast their votes in local elections—an inspiring step forward on Somalia’s democratic journey. We call on all citizens to participate peacefully & responsibly, celebrating this milestone with unity.
From Massachusetts to Minnesota, our Somali communities are strong and vibrant.
And no amount of hate from the occupant of the White House will change that.
Proud to stand in solidarity with our Somali siblings in Boston and let them know we’ve got their back.
Nice try @JDVance. My father came to America on a scholarship in the early 60’s, during the civil rights era, and earned a masters in engineering.
I was born in DC and proud to represent MPLS in the MN Senate.
Looks like you took time away from the couch to try out comedy.
Mubashir is a U.S. citizen who’s lived in MPLS nearly his whole life. Yesterday, he was tackled, handcuffed, and taken into federal custody in his neighborhood. The reason? He’s Somali.
Every American who cares about our republic should object to these constitutional violations.
Chicago is where Michelle was raised, where I got my start as an organizer, and where we built a family together. When the Obama Presidential Center opens next June, it will be our way to give back to a city that has given us so much.
California, this November 4th, the whole country is counting on you.
Prop 50 puts our elections back on a level playing field, preserves independent redistricting over the long term, and lets the people decide.
So return your ballot today. Vote yes on 50.
As an attorney general, I know a scam when I see one.
Make no mistake, what Donald Trump is selling is a scam.
America, let's shut this scam down and send @KamalaHarris and @Tim_Walz to the White House.
200+ AfAm community, faith, business & political leaders from across Minnesota have co-signed this letter expressing our enthusiastic support for Governor @Tim_Walz’s consideration as a potential running mate for Vice President @KamalaHarris.
We’re not going back.
Abiy Ahmed’s would need to kill about 16 million Somalis to seize their land, sea or ports and since that is impossible he won’t take even one inch of Somali territory.
He needs to apologize and back off immediately.
His aggression is the best gift for Somalia in 2024 because he united us.
Seton Hall President Joseph E. Nyre, Ph.D. presents Justin, the service dog for Grace Mariani, of Mahwah, NJ, with a diploma for attending all of Grace’s classes at Seton Hall.
It's a reminder that, while the pace of change can often be slow, a small group of people can still help us take a giant leap forward – but only if we vote.
Since then, Minnesota has made progress on a whole host of issues – from protecting abortion rights and new gun safety measures to expanding access to the ballot and reducing child poverty. These laws will make a real difference in the lives of Minnesotans.
