MINNEAPOLIS (FOX 9) - Modern Times Café once served free food to the community as federal immigration agents flooded Minneapolis. Now, the restaurant is closing by the end of the year. "For the last 6 years, I’ve been trying to prove that Modern Times can continue to exist. I’ve exhausted every option without compromising the core fundamentals that make Modern Times what it is. Because of this, we have made the choice to close at the end of the year. This has been an incredibly difficult decision and one that did not come lightly. I announce this decision now, with...

Things are getting increasingly wild in the ongoing, multifaceted investigation into Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar (MN-05). When you bring DNA evidence into the fray, you'd be right to wonder if something beyond the initial reports is happening behind the scenes. Federal agents, according to multiple sources who spoke with NewsNation, searched discarded trash in hopes of obtaining DNA from Omar and her family before raiding her Washington, D.C. home this week. The sources state that any potential DNA evidence obtained "is critical to the investigation" into the Squad member. It's unclear how such evidence would factor into the case, but...

Senior Minnesota state officials allegedly hired outside investigators to silence whistleblowers in an attempt to cover up widespread state social services fraud, a House committee report released Monday found. A 200-page staff report by the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform found that Democrat Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s state administration intimidated and retaliated against state employees who raised concerns about fraud, soliciting private investigators to reveal employees’ personal details. The report, titled “The Cost of Doing Nothing: How Tim Walz and Keith Ellison Fueled Minnesota’s Fraud Explosion,” exposed that senior state officials, as high as allegedly Gov. Walz, were...

Two church non-profits have taken in at least $62 M to build the Somali community in Minnesota — leading to the rise of Ilhan Omar and the fraud scandals that have gripped that state. Catholic Charities and Lutheran Social Services were at the forefront of reshaping MN thanks to generous government contracts stemming back generations. “This is a very big pile of government money and a whole bunch of different groups have come to get their own slice of it,” Parker Thayer, an immigration expert at the Capital Research Center...total money pouring into MN resettlement programs is “in the hundreds...

Not a surprise. There are many questions about Ilhan Omar, about her father’s application for asylum, about her brother whom she may have married to get him into the U.S., about her husband Tim Mynett’s financial dealings, about her sudden rise from a negative net worth in 2018 to as much as $30 million in 2024, followed by a sudden decline in that same net worth in 2026, according to Omar, to “a few thousand.” All that is passing strange, and surely enough to justify a search warrant enabling the Department of Homeland Security investigators to arrive at her house...

Federal agents executed a search warrant at Rep. Ilhan Omar's (D-Minn.) Washington, D.C., home early Monday morning as part of a criminal fraud investigation into her immigration paperwork, according to an exclusive report from Fox News Digital.

Homeland Security Investigations and the Department of Homeland Security are leading the operation, and the Justice Department is also involved. Multiple agents wearing HSI jackets...

“Squad” Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) defiantly broke her silence after a Homeland Security Investigations raid of her DC residence on Monday, as she and her allies claimed the action was part of President Trump’s repeated attempts to intimidate her as a political foe.“I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement,” Omar said in a statement on X. “For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation.”“I will not be silenced,” the congresswoman added in...

Minnesota Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan (D) leads her GOP opponent, former NFL sideline reporter Michele Tafoya, in a new poll on the state’s U.S. Senate race. The Minnesota Star Tribune/KARE 11 Minnesota poll found 47 percent of respondents supported Flanagan, while 43 percent backed Tafoya, 9 percent were undecided and less than 1 percent picked someone else.

Flanagan’s independent supporters told...

The home of Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn, was raided early Monday morning by Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), a source familiar with the matter told Fox News Digital. The raid stems from a criminal fraud investigation into the Somali-born congresswoman's immigration paperwork, which was filled out by her late father when she was a child. Two sources close to the investigation confirmed the details of the probe Thursday, after border czar Tom Homan said in mid-September that the progressive congresswoman was subject to an ongoing "criminal" investigation.

Furious residents of Minneapolis suburbs erupted at their political leaders for failing to address recent shootings involving Somalis. The placid community of Edina, slightly more than 10 miles southeast of Minneapolis, has been shaken by a string of apparent gang shootings over the last few months. On July 22, shots were fired at Yancey Park during a 'large gathering.' Another shooting followed on September 22 outside Our Lady of Grace Church while a community basketball game was being played. No one was hurt in either incident. Angry locals demanded accountability for the shootings, which remain unsolved, on Monday night during...

An 18-year-old man accused of telling an FBI informant he wanted to attack the Mall of America during the Hmong Arts Celebration on Oct. 24 was arrested at gunpoint Tuesday in Richfield, Minnesota, during an arranged meeting to buy an AK-47-style rifle for $600, according to a federal criminal complaint filed Wednesday. In the complaint, authorities say a "confidential human source" exchanged "hundreds of bi-directional messages through multiple social media and encrypted messaging applications" with Sheikhdoon Abdullahi Mohamud from December 2024 until Tuesday. In those exchanges, Mohamud allegedly "expressed his desire to travel to Somalia" to join al-Shabaab and "fight...

I’ve said before that Republicans head into the 2026 midterms in a stronger position than the national polls suggest, and Minnesota is a big reason why. Along with New Hampshire, the state has become an overlooked Senate pickup opportunity, which is remarkable, given that Minnesota hasn't backed a Republican for president since 1972.The Senate race between Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan (D-Minn.) and Republican Michele Tafoya is a near dead heat. Big Data Poll has Flanagan ahead by two points. InsiderAdvantage has her up by one. KSTP/SurveyUSA found the race tied. Flanagan’s lead in the RealClearPolitics average is a mere 1.6...

Rebecca (“Becca”) Good, the partner of Renee Good, and Brent Ganger, the court-appointed trustee for Good’s next of kin, filed two lawsuits Thursday in the U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota arising from Good’s fatal encounter with federal immigration agents during Operation Metro Surge. One suit targets ICE agent Jonathan Ross and several senior Trump administration officials in their individual capacities; the other seeks to hold the United States liable under the Federal Tort Claims Act. As my RedState colleague Rusty Weiss reported back in January, the family and her partner had retained the services of Romanucci &...
