The Minnetonka Wednesday Weekly Protest has continued since the first week of May 2025 with no breaks, rain or shine. You can sign up in advance for the Wednesday of your choice to receive a detailed arrangements memo including answers to frequently asked questions. You are encouraged to invite your friends, neighbors, relatives, and co-workers to join us any Wednesday from 4:15pm to 6:00pm Central Standard Time. (When daylight saving time begins we will return to our summer schedule of 4:30pm to 6:30pm CDT.) Arrive when you are able; leave when when you need to. We gather on the public sidewalks and grassy banks along the road margins at the intersection of Minnesota State Highway 7 and County Road 101 in Minnetonka where we display our hand-made signs. The busy intersection features hundreds of drivers and dozens of pedestrians and bicyclists who are encouraged by our presence each week. We build up our own morale and turn the tide of public opinion in our community. We have consistently stood up in public for more than half a year in all kinds of weather; this weekly event doesn't ever get cancelled. We will expand our coalition and keep going. Trump will be out of office before we stop protesting. All local protests organized by Indivisible MN03 are peaceful, legal, nonviolent, family-friendly exercises of first amendment rights in public places.

In quieter moments, it occurs to him that agents likely know where he lives. Alex Pretti, the 37-year-old whom agents killed while he was filming them, “100% could have been me”, Cory said.
