Somali gangs have become a serious and growing threat to public safety in Minnesota, with most of them being involved in violent crimes, drug trafficking, and disrupting neighborhoods, putting countless families at risk. However, left-wing politicians seem more interested in protecting politically correct narratives than reporting the hard truth. House Majority Whip Tom Emmer (R-MN) highlighted the growing trend of Somali gangs wreaking havoc in his state. "Unfortunately, the failing press in Minnesota, especially in the Twin Cities, is not. These Somali gangs are incredibly dangerous," Emmer said. "We had an attack at a high school basketball game last spring...

"She doesn't get to give the Senate two weeks' notice," Senate Minority Leader Mark Johnson said of Mitchell's plan to resign by Aug. 4 .... Senator Nicole Mitchell, DFL-Woodbury, has announced she will resign from the Minnesota Senate next month. Her announcement comes just days after she was convicted of two felonies, first-degree burglary and possession of burglary or theft tools. In April of 2024, Mitchell was arrested after breaking into her stepmother’s Detroit Lakes home with the intent to take items that once belonged to her late father. A jury convicted Mitchell of both felonies after a week-long trial...

~Ladies and gentlemen, the next mayor of Minneapolis... Mogadishu? Nope - Minneapolis victory party of Omar Fateh after he won the MN Democratic endorsement pic.twitter.com/QzBwVWPbC2 — End Wokeness (@EndWokeness) July 20, 2025 Minnesota Nice is looking more and more like Minnesota Suicidal. Whatever else may be said of it, in Mogadishu it would be considered weird - and kind of pathetic - to make, say, Garrison Keillor the mayor. In that sense, notwithstanding an IQ down at Congressional-approval level, Somalis are smarter than western progressives. Which brings me to our regular, if increasingly obnoxious, "As I was saying twenty years...

Minnesota's branch of the Democratic Party endorsed far-left Minnesota State Sen. Omar Fateh's campaign for mayor of Minneapolis on Saturday. Fateh announced the endorsement from the Democratic Farmer-Labor (DFL) party on social media. He secured the endorsement over incumbent mayor Jacob Frey, also a Democrat. "I am incredibly honored to be the DFL endorsed candidate for Minneapolis Mayor. This endorsement is a message that Minneapolis residents are done with broken promises, vetoes, and politics as usual. It’s a mandate to build a city that works for all of us," Fateh wrote on X. The DFL did not immediately respond to...

Democrat Minneapolis mayoral candidate Omar Fateh laid out his vision on Sunday to freeze rent, rapidly raise the minimum wage and refuse to cooperate with federal immigration enforcement. Fateh, who is currently a Minnesota state senator, posted a video to his X account calling to “protect” Minneapolis from a “hostile White House,” increase the minimum wage by $20 by 2028 and prohibit the Minneapolis Police Department (MPD) from “interacting” with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The mayoral candidate, who announced his candidacy in December, has a platform that strongly resembles Democrat New York City mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani’s. “Protecting all...

The convictions will have major ramifications for the Minnesota Senate and the state's political landscape. Sen. Nicole Mitchell, DFL-Woodbury, was found guilty of first-degree burglary in a stunning conclusion to a legal saga that began more than a year ago. In April 2024, Mitchell was arrested and charged with first-degree burglary after allegedly breaking into her stepmother’s Detroit Lakes home with the intent to take items that once belonged to her late father. A second felony charge, possession of burglary or theft tools, was later added by prosecutors. Mitchell’s trial began on Monday and featured body-camera footage, several witnesses, and...

Alpha News was on location as a search warrant was being served at several locations related to a “massive scheme to defraud” Medicaid and Minnesota’s Housing Stabilization Services (HSS) program. According to the search warrant, the fraud investigation involves HSS providers who billed for various services intended to provide stable housing for Minnesotans. The search warrant states, “The Program has proved to be extremely vulnerable to fraud.” The vulnerability stems from limited requirements for service providers and the vast services they can provide for Medicaid reimbursement. “Since Minnesota became the first state to offer Medicaid coverage for Housing Stabilization Services,...

Former first son Hunter Biden faulted Democrats’ disloyalty to his father for the electoral drubbing they suffered last year and President Trump’s return to power. The younger Biden argued that Democrats squandered their advantages of incumbency and “an incredibly successful administration” — despite its record-low approval numbers — when they turned against his father in dramatic fashion last summer. “We lost the last election because we did not remain loyal to the leader of the party,” Hunter Biden said on former Democratic National Committee boss Jaime Harrison’s new podcast, according to excerpts. “That’s my position. We had the advantage of...

The second of two defendants from Nevada who were charged in Minnesota with conspiracy to commit voter registration fraud pleaded guilty Tuesday, federal prosecutors announced. Ronnie Williams, 58, entered his plea before US District Judge Laura Provinzino in St. Paul. Court records don't say whether there was a formal plea agreement. Williams & Combs allegedly generated fictitious names and other data they used to fill out Minnesota voter registration forms in 2021 and 2022. The charging documents filed last month say Williams provided the completed forms to an entity that sought to register voters in Minnesota, which is identified only...

Wilson Tindi, a Kenyan national who was convicted of sexually asssaulting a woman while she was asleep in Minnesota, had avoided deportation for years after completing his prison sentence. During that time, he got a job and was appointed an audit director at the Minnesota Department of Education (MDE), where he used to check taxpayer spending and oversee internal accountability. That was until June 27, 2025, when authorities arrested him for an unrelated offense. Tindi, 42, who was in the country illegally, was convicted of criminal sexual conduct over a decade before being hired. In December 2014, he admitted to...

Agency officials confirm that Wilson Tindi's employment ended last week, although the department hasn’t said if he was fired or he resigned.

Tindi worked as director of internal audit and advisory services for about two...

A career criminal with a long history of fraud offenses was sentenced to seven years in federal prison last week for defrauding an electronics manufacturing business. At a June 23 sentencing hearing, Judge Joan Ericksen commented on how Thomas Thanh Pham has proven himself to be “an efficient and effective perpetrator of fraud” whose crime was “part of a skilled execution of a scheme that he has refined over decades.” As a result, Pham was immediately ordered into custody because it “was too dangerous and too risky” to the public for him “to remain at liberty.” “Fraudsters have flocked to...

A Kenyan national convicted of sexually assaulting a sleeping woman in Minnesota wasn’t deported after his prison sentence — he was promoted. Wilson Tindi holds a director position at the Minnesota Department of Education, where he audits taxpayer spending and oversees internal accountability. Court records show Tindi was convicted in 2016 of fourth-degree criminal sexual conduct after breaking into a woman’s home and assaulting her in bed where she slept. He pleaded guilty to the sex assault charge in exchange for prosecutors dropping a first-degree burglary charge. Tindi was sentenced to two years in prison and ordered to register as...

As Iran continues to consider further retaliation against the US after it bombed its nuclear facilities, experts warned enacting sleeper cell agents could be a high possibility, especially on college campuses. With Russia and terrorists group Hezbollah and Hamas unable to help Iran as they have wars of their own to contend with, Iran's ability to hit the US where it hurts has become limited. The country doesn't have missiles that can reach the mainland US, however, it isn't entirely powerless. 'Iran’s ability to react militarily is increasingly minimalized. We have to remember that Iran’s terrorist proxies have been severely...
