My office was the first to draw attention to this problem two legislative sessions ago. We held hearings, formed a legislative group, and in my higher ed bill we passed funding for the anti-fraud software MinnState needed to address it. Youโ€™re not breaking any news.
MORE MINNESOTA FRAUD More than 7,700 โ€œghost studentsโ€ found in Minnesota State Colleges last year across their 33 campuses. Students enroll in college under a fake name, get financial aid, then disappear. These ghost students cost taxpayers $12.5 million according to the Education Dept. One class filled 50 seats just 2 minutes after opening enrollment. Only 2 students were real, per FOX Shut the whole state down! Itโ€™s one massive crime scene at this point

Help Team Fateh unlock Minnesota Public Subsidy Funding! I believe campaigns should be funded by the people โ€“ not bought & paid for by corporate special interests, Super PACs or the ultra wealthy. In Minnesota, weโ€™re fortunate to have partial public financing of our elections.

Real Hickenlooper Haters remember when she did this in 2020 when it was an open seat also
We are incredibly honored to have the support of U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren. Weโ€™re fighting to lower costs, create more affordable and accessible health care, and to build an economy that works for everyone โ€“ not just the wealthy few. Weโ€™re taking back the Senate this November and bringing Trumpโ€™s reckless policies to a screeching halt. Weโ€™re glad to have you with us.

Twitter this mightโ€™ve happened to my plane but we never took off thankfully
A SkyWest Airlines flight operating as a Delta connection from Minneapolis to Bentonville, Arkansas, had to turn back around after takeoff because of an engine issue on Saturday, SkyWest said in a statement. In ATC audio, the pilot can be heard saying there's been an engine failure. The plane was able to land safely.

You are an evil company @Delta. My flight was cancelled and the hotel voucher you gave me said there is a shuttle, and we called the hotel and they said no shuttle exists
