Keith Ellison

continue to do everything in my power to oppose this brutality, ensure justice is served, and keep Minnesotans safe.

Renee was one of the kindest people I’ve ever known.

I will not allow you to take from Minnesotans in need. I'll see you in court.

She was anything but a domestic terrorist.

I’d fight the new freeze of funds in court.

She was a compassionate neighbor trying to be a legal observer on behalf of her immigrant neighbors.

The usurpation of the National Guard in California, to me, is the big, ugly threat to American democracy.

The American people are coming out more and more every day, more people who’ve never been to a protest march in their lives.

I also think it’s important for us to continue to communicate with the public and give people hope that we can protect and defend and extend our democracy.

We are a whisper away from Jim Crow.

We don’t need more promises. We need protection. We need power. And we need justice.

Accountability cannot be optional.

This is an insult. A disgrace. And a betrayal of the promises made to Black people.

We need systemic protections, not symbolic gestures.

It is both wrong and unlawful for the Trump Administration to demand Minnesota law enforcement step away from their patrols... to instead enforce federal immigration law.

I hope that Donald Trump has enough humanity to recognize that releasing Derek Chauvin would cause untold injury to George Floyd’s family.

The constitution allows the Congress to have the power of the purse. Trump just says 'no, I don't want it to go there.'

It is wrong morally to persecute a minority group like the transgender community.

I see us winning. I think that the 10th amendment of the Constitution says that Minnesota gets to write Minnesota laws.

Title IX does not authorize the President to issue directives with the force of law

What they all amount to when you add them all up, is Trump trying to rule this country via executive order.

So this is the time to do your patriotic duty and say no. Lift up your voice, join in this struggle.

The people of Minnesota deserve their day in court.

Worse still, Trump installed Elon Musk at the head of that agency without vetting and Senate confirmation, and Musk has proceeded to use that unconstitutional appointment to try to cut the federal government to the bone.

Donald Trump seems to think a narrow electoral victory makes him into a king. He could not be more wrong.
