Minnesota Now: Oct. 8, 2026

from Minnesota Now · host Minnesota Public Radio

A Twin Cities man is in custody on terrorism charges for making plans for an attack at the Mall of America. We got more details of the case and heard more about how federal agencies track and charge people who become radicalized. Journalists with ProPublica tracked down evidence of hundreds of U.S. citizens who have been detained by federal agents while the Trump administration carried out its immigration enforcement agenda. We spoke to one of the reporters. Plus, a local dance theater is debuting a piece that explores the emotions and response of Twin Cities residents during Operation Metro Surge. The Minnesota Music Minute was “Haven't Left” by Luutsön. The Song of the Day was “Violet Hour” by Harlow.
