Reminder: If the Supreme Court upholds Trump’s attack on birthright citizenship, some of the ICE officers currently brutalizing Minnesotans may be reassigned to apprehend newborns from the hospital for immediate deportation. Just read the Trump administration’s own memo. slate.com/news-and-pol...

Governor, I'm begging you, just write back three words on official letterhead, "Suck my dick"

I am not gonna catch a case for things I write online, but reading this, boyo.

Yesterday, we joined tens of thousands to march. This am, ICE responded with violence. Alex was an ICU nurse, a union sibling, & an observer who stepped in to help. This is a union state. We will continue to show up, to watch, to document, and fight ICE is not welcome here.

Mood in minneapolis right now

I appreciate the point, but once again: HE WASNT EVEN AT A PROTEST EVENT HE WAS OBSERVING DOCUMENTING AND PROTECTING

There's a prison revolt at a concentration camp in Texas in solidarity with Minneapolis:

Even now, even through all of this, the rapid responders in Uptown have continued to locate, pursue, and monitor ICE vehicles. They never stop. Heroes one and all

Soulless cunt

Why the fuck does the National Guard have to protect the Whipple building? Open the doors, tear off the roof, show us the horror within. But protect it? Protect who?

Alex Pretti "used to tell people off when they made sexist comments to female physicians. He bought me coffee when I had a really bad day as an intern...I laughed alongside him daily. He made a point to teach medical residents without judgement, but with a smile on his face and a joke."

Music and art and my friends are going to fuel me

you know where the hennepin county sheriff’s office WON’T reallocate deputies to? HCMC to kick ICE out so they can stop harassing patients and staff someone needs to challenge dawanna witt for november

He was directing traffic around an ICE operation on Eat Street, looking out for public safety. Then he was shielding another protester with his body while ICE pepper sprayed them both. He died protecting his community. He should be alive to tell the story. Abolish ICE forever.

To protect the feds and the cops, but not to protect the vulnerable people being terrorized and murdered by the feds. Thanks, I hate it

Once again, observers are not protesting. This wasn’t during a protest. He was murdered while being in his community and observing the out of control federal occupation of our city.

This is Alex Pretti. This morning he was murdered by ICE. Six ICE agents held him down and shot him at point blank range. Alex was a nurse and researcher at the VA. Our thoughts are with his loved ones and we stand united in action calling for the abolishment of ICE. #ScientistsAgainstICE

Got mine on Amazon you ignorant dipshit because I saw what you were about to do. Minnesotans have been sharing mask recs for weeks like a hot dish recipe

alex pretti was a nurse at the VA

This is a city that just wants to fucking fly kites on a fucking lake

There is no federal law enforcement anymore.

Witnesses are being taken to Whipple. From a lawyer friend: “They’re trying to keep local PD and BCA from getting statements and confiscating any phones with video.”

This could have been me or a hundred people i know whose only crime is having a camera

As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today.

ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.

Y'all, this is breaking something in me, but it's not my resolve. We have to win, and these pigs need to pay

Not sure how widespread this sorta thing is, but I suspect it’s a lot: my (understandably freaked out) in-laws offered to let us stay with them out-of-state during all this, and we had to explain that, actually, this is our home and we’re simply not leaving before those fuckers do.

Protester in Minnesota: I’m 70 years old and I’m fucking angry *disappears into gas*

Not a protester. A community member, an elder, a community protector, a witness. Not a protester.

Minnesota had a successful strike yesterday, so they murdered a citizen this morning in retaliation. you can't convince me it's not related.

What the facists don't understand is we are scared, full of sadness, and anger, but we aren't going to quit, and they will lose.

Man, I hate to break it to you, but I think the White House might actually be involved in all this.

ICE just shot another one of my neighbors. They had the person on the ground, being beaten by several agents, and then fired multiple shots. In front of the donut shop where we like to get donuts for our kids.

Signal groups are definitely going haywire but already people are saying they're not stopping watching ICE and they're not going to stop filming and following. These people are real heroes, not the fucking cowardly dogshit gestapo.

Rapid responders still out there, tracking ICE. In spite of everything, even now. Heroes

Arrest them or shut the fuck up

I just responded to the scene at 26th and Nicollet shortly after the observer was shot. They teargassed and/or pepper sprayed Jana Shortal of KARE11 at the scene and she was being treated when I walked up. ICE have a fancy camera they are using to scan the faces of the crowd.

They can't shoot all of us, but they're determined to try.

What we learned after they killed Renee Good is that they don’t stop operations the day they kill someone. It only increases in other parts of the Cities. So we keep patrolling. we can’t even stop to mourn.

They are executing unarmed people in the streets for trying to protect their neighbors with the full support of the federal government.

They were always going to meet yesterday's resistance with violence. That's all they have.

Well, fuck. This is gonna be really bad

Thesis: ICE is un-American and the Minneapolis protestors are real Americans. Antithesis: Ackshually ICE is operating in a long American tradition of racist terror. Synthesis: Minneapolis is now the epicenter of a clash between two distinct but historically grounded American political traditions.

The other thing that happens tho is that a large number of white people from the neighborhood show up to observe. Literally the only thing that gives ICE goons pause is white people from the community watching them. That’s why every school has parent patrols and vulnerable places ask for observers.

ICE attacked an observer after they tailed a group of clergy on a spiritual pilgrimage. Our digital producer @sam.vp just so happened to be with the clergy on their journey. He spoke with the observer who was attacked and others who witnessed the assault.

We have citizen patrols checking empty cars like this for children and animals that were left behind in the negative temps because that’s where we are at as a society.

They wheeled this Nazi asshole into court in a wheelchair and he was still trying to hide his face in shame 76 years after World War II ended. That's the kind of commitment I'm looking for.

I was about to post that the twin cities needs our own Sergio St Carlos, but I'm starting to believe we've already got several of those badass motherfuckers out there

This is so fucking haunting.

Another fact that people outside of MN might find hard to believe: I cannot participate in any kind of observation of ice activities because they will put me in a database, and follow me when I make deliveries of supplies to vulnerable people, so they can abduct them.
