Detaining people lawfully here because Kavanaugh Stop.

Yes: we have tens of thousands of Minnesotans who are, for all intents and purposes, in hiding right now. Most are documented, many are even citizens. Doesn't matter, because ICE doesn't care. Our schools are at COVID-era levels of attendance, with no extra resources for support. Unimaginable harm.

We must treat them how they’ve treated us after this. It is not normal for us, it best become normal for us or they’ll do this again.

ICE is a trafficking ring.

There are 3,800 kids in ICE custody.

🤣🤣🤣a bunch of rejects

The celebrities all came out for the big premiere.

This is why supporting mutual aid efforts is so important. The financial, material, and emotional lifelines must be kept intact to these communities. They will drown without it, and we’ll all be much poorer for that. Goddamn. /end

Every single story is shit you hear every day from your neighbors and friends here. People’s minds aren’t designed to grasp and hold onto this broad and deep and often banal kind of cruelty. It’s crushing when you stop and realize this kind of suffering is invisibly all around you. 7/

Pets left behind as entire families disappear Moms and dads trying to hide their daily, hourly, ever present fear from their kids, all day and all night, because no one has left the house for a month. Citizen kids heading to school and praying their parents won’t be gone when they return 6/

Families where the mom has been taken, the baby breastfed, now everyone panicking about how to feed her Hardworking people feeling the shame that should belong to someone else at finally breaking down and asking for help 5/

Parents of every kind of brown kid putting them on the schoolbus, praying today is not the wrong day, knowing their neighbors might never fully understand what this feels like People in the legal process deciding whether to go to their court appointment and risk being taken 4/

Years or decades of nightmares and flashbacks to being grabbed, hauled off, yelling “I’m a citizen!,” then later being dumped in the woods in the freezing cold Older folks stretching food being all imagining, trying to save the help that’s out there for families with kids 3/

1 in 4 kids out of school, falling behind, and the terror they’ll fell when it’s time to go back Entire families running out of food and too scared to risk going to the food shelf or store Sick kids getting sicker, parents doing agonizing calculus about when to risk bringing them in 2/

Tonight I’m overwhelmed by the swath of invisible evil of this thing. Families waiting for the breadwinner to come home, every minute late a panic that he’s been taken Small businesses, the product of years of grit & heart & dreams, folding Women giving birth at home, kids and spouse terrified 1/

one journalist I talked to recently said his outlet was considering going to showings of Melania and profiling the two or three audience members but decided against it because they realized they'd all be other journalists with the same idea

The Libertarian of the Year Award goes to...

If he can loot $10,000,000,000 from the treasury, or even attempt to do so without everyone involved going to prison, then there is no law and they all simply can be shot after a drumhead tribunal.

Minneapolis should press its momentum and demand not only withdrawal but start talking about the need for immediate reparations, loudly, with the total certainty that only winners have. "You have wronged us terribly and must pay recompense" and let them argue the second part.

Frey: "In Mpls, we heard them say they'll end this siege when we hand over voter rolls. The DOJ is being used as a weapon. They're investigating me and several other local elected officials not because we've done something wrong because we speak on behalf of our constituents.

It will end, it will probably end in a matter of weeks, not years, and when it ends all the problems of the world will not be solved, but ICE will be mostly gone and people can walk outside safely again

I think this is precisely backwards. the exact thing that has united Minnesota right now is that this ISN'T another in an endless succession of social justice campaigns, but a fight against one very specific abuse: our own government conducting, for all intents and purposes, a siege against us

Terms of surrender

dispatch can I get some cross-streets for intercept

ICE can and will find out who anyone is. I mean maybe not if you take an Uber, and pay with a prepaid card, and have a burner phone, and where a gas mask, but who’s going to do all that? And why? Observing and recording is legal! and we shouldn’t act like we have already lost those rights.

This. There is no Privacy in this. Anyone who thinks ICE and DHS needs a reporter to find your identity is delusional. You have to embrace the "theres are more of us than you" strategy. Ghandi and the civil rights move utilized this, F... you arrest me and you wont have room to jail us all.

ICE reportedly has a tool where they circle a geography and get the names of all the cell phone users within it. The key to defeating this technology is not "smashing your cell phone with a hammer" but "recognizing that having a list of 30 people who are recording you in public is not very useful"

he spat on a rental car and then kicked it twice. no ice officer was in sight, but five of them immediately jumped out to beat him senseless, and then tear-gassed a crowd of maybe 50 bystanders as a parting shot

Minnesota will be under terrorist siege until ICE leaves. People have a right to defend themselves from this political assault.

He’s a law enforcement officer except for the enforcement of law part.

An arbitrary authority with no clear chain of command has, without warrant and without due process, deported Will Stancil from the resistance. That will show the administration!

Bovino pulled the "it's our city" stuff in Los Angeles, in Chicago, and in Minneapolis. The dude is from North Carolina and mostly spent his career in New Orleans and southeastern California. He'd probably never been to Minneapolis in his life before this month.

the presence of a journalist does not mean the identity of every person the journalist encounters suddenly becomes a public fact. what I am discovering is that an alarming number of people appear to believe in this kind of miasmatic journalism. real journalists work by very strict disclosure rules

This is insane, one: never ever do this shit, two: stop wondering why your kids go no contact with you when you do this shit, 3 see one and two.

GRAPHIC. This is by far the best video analysis I’ve seen. Everyone needs to watch this. There can be no doubt now this was murder. www.cnn.com/2026/01/29/p...

Well he has a fracture in his shoulder, in a sling, will have to see an Orthopedic doctor and do some rehab. He’s on his way home.

Minneapolis's rapid response is working. You can see on the ground that it's working. But you can also see WHY it's working. It's not the secrecy (which, frankly, is a mirage). It's the numbers, and rules of engagement which refuse to create an obvious foothold for opponents.

guys the thing about being a decentralized leaderless network is that there are really no clear leaders to consult. what we have seen, though, is that careful press coverage of minneapolis community networks has massively benefited their cause, harmed ICE, and seemingly not led to anyone being IDed.

I am mostly in a defensive role so I won’t talk to press on the record and won’t give any specific information about anything I am doing. But I have talked to out-of-town journalists (all mutuals because I trust them) to give background or talk broadly about things to make sure they get it right.

There’s debate about talking to the press tonight. I’ve tried to explain that two things are happening on the ground. Offensive, observing ICE like what Will is doing, and defensive, helping vulnerable people. I am fine if offense talks to responsible press as long as they take precaution.

Truly stunning to watch a graduate (Gov. Abbott) of the state’s flagship university (UT Austin) gut it and MD Anderson.

I had to read it twice, and then I lol'd.😆

Sitting President attempts to steal $10 BILLION from taxpayers. The most corrupt regime of our lifetimes. With no close second. And the Hunter hunters are silent. www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...

I don’t have one near me so no worries.
