I see their faces and hear their voices. It's haunting how real the story is when you're there, as I was embedded for six days. Now it's your turn to follow my journey in #Minnesota in podcasts, videos & articles @FrontPMovement frontporchmovement.com #ICEraids #Immigration

From Edward R. Murrow’s broadcasts to today, CBS News Radio has been part of the foundation of American journalism. Murrow’s mic sits on display at the National Press Club as a reminder of that legacy. When an institution like that disappears, it’s a loss for the public & for journalism.

Growing up and through college, there was no better newscast, on any platform, than the CBS World News Roundup with Dallas Townsend in the morning and The World Tonight with Douglas Edwards at 6pm. We are getting dumber, and we only have ourselves to blame.

When I returned to Minnesota, the state I called home for 17 years, it wasn’t to repeat the coverage about immigration raids or the killing of two innocent people. I came looking to uncover untold stories, the ones you’ve heard in the first eight episodes of SIX DAYS INSIDE MINNESOTA. One place no one else went? A frozen lake, to see whether isolation on the ice, meant isolation from caring. In the next three episodes, I explore a feeling no one talks about: indifference. I begin by walking a half mile across one of Minnesota’s 10,000 frozen lakes. Join me for this nine-minute episode.

@MayorFrey @JillGeisler Mr. Mayor, I chronicled many of those impacts as an embedded journalist and just released the start of my series “Six Days Inside Minnesota” frontporchmovement.com @FrontPMovement

One month. $203 million in impact. Thousands of Minneapolis families hurting. In just 30 days, Operation Metro Surge has resulted in: • $47M in lost wages • $81M in small business losses • 76,200 people facing food insecurity • 8,700+ children needing mental health support

Debut Episode of "Six Days Inside Minnesota": On a flight to Minneapolis, with heaviness and anxiety in the air, my reporting began even before I boarded the plane. A loud encounter with Brian, a mutual aid organizer, turns into a candid conversation at 36,000 feet about ICE operations, immigration fears, and how Minnesota is responding.

For six days, I embedded myself in Minnesota to find untold stories. What I found was profound and staggering. Join me from the start by reading "Returning to Minnesota: A Journalist’s Journey Into a State in Crisis" frontporchmovement.com/articles/retur… @FrontPMovement

@CathyWurzer Being back in Minnesota for the last week, successfully covering untold stories, your voice on the radio was steady and compassionate, and a welcome relief with The Righteous Brothers kicker. The Twin Cities is lucky to have you, Cathy.

Liam and his dad just got back to Minnesota, now the federal government wants to expedite deportation proceedings for his family. A report from MPR News. mprnews.org/story/2026/02/…

Having lived in the Twin Cities and having worked as a journalist there for 17 years, I’ve returned this week to cover untold stories for my project Front Porch Movement. Standing here in person is still disbelieving of what occurred on this ordinary American street. Stay tuned.

“Across the country, people are looking to Boston.”~ Mayor Michelle Wu @bostonchamber

The five-year-old boy detained by ICE is sick, vomiting, no longer eating, and crying for his mom. Texas Dem’s are calling for his release, as they should. This is cruel, inhumane, and an absolute moral failure. My heart is with him.

Newly published footage of today’s shooting of 37-year-old Alex Jeffrey Pretti by agents with Border Patrol and Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE) in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

@frankieVWCCO: “you think an educated ICU nurse….who in their right mind is going to pull out a gun in front of heavily armed federal agents?”

New angle from @bringmethenews shows one agent repeatedly shooting while backing up. Again, roughly 10 shots.

BREAKING: ICE just shot and killed someone again in Minneapolis

@MaxWCCO is providing tremendous live coverage of the Minneapolis shooting. Watch: youtube.com/live/o72g7uTDS…
