watching all the little monarchs flutter around here and thinking about how they will follow the food and sun north in a few months because migration is natural and borders are colonial violence

Wind and solar are the two biggest resources on the Midwest’s electric grid (MISO) right now. Never seen that before :)

‘markwayne.’ that is some trashy shit right there. i shouldn’t have to know about a guy named markwayne until the day im finally ready to hire a monster truck chauffeur

They’re still lying to us. www.startribune.com/close-to-650...

Bro, ICE is still here kidnapping people, now they’ve even got transit vans advertising fake companies.

dawanna witt's hennepin county sheriff's deputies are once again hiding their faces at the whipple building, just like ICE and CBP do

Oh btw ICE activity today at Whipple was fucking nuts. Large convoys of masked agents leaving every so often with a constant stream of single ICE vehicles in between. This 'drawdown' was clearly just a brief hiatus to pacify liberals and get bourgeois media/politicians to completely lose interest.

sure the pedophile felon president just illegally bombed a country that may have nukes while federal forces under his command murder and harass people in america and immigrants are tortured and he moves forward with plans to build concentration camps and sorry idk where i was going fuck all of this

no such thing as other people's children

Disgusting way to talk about your fellow humans. Silicon Valley needs to be quarantined for an indefinite period of time until the nazi mad scientist fever is cured.

We Lena Duerr

lol, it’s a lot easier to form a tenants union when everyone in the building is in the same group chat

Anyone currently involved in federal immigration enforcement, every officer, every bureaucrat, every lawyer, every judge, is a member of the most evil group of people this country has seen since Reconstruction. Darkness personified, every one. Doing this to children is beyond depraved.

I am wary of any politicians doing a victory lap today before we’ve seen on the ground that ICE has left. Their surety makes me think that they negotiated something and I think they owe it to us to be as transparent as possible about what that is.

Other Minnesotans, of course. Because I, Senator Amy Klobuchar, have been hiding behind the trappings of the Senate, attending uncontroversial Hockey Days, and waiting to see which position on ICE is most politically advantageous for me, personally. Now that that's clear, here I am! Go MN! Boo ICE!

I have neighbors everywhere

This is good. Very much need this kind of talk.

ICE is currently holding around 80,000 detainees. Nazi Germany didn't reach this number in its formal camp system until 1942, nine years after seizing power and three years into the war.

It bears repeating that Tom Homan is a fucking psycho and Greg Bovino's exile means functionally nothing when it comes to what's happening on the ground in Minnesota.

If you won’t say this, you should not hold public office

These people are evil. Their main goal in life is to hurt children. Every single one of them should be tried for their crimes. They will pay.

Alright. You go first.

Adobe Acrobat I do not want to know What’s New. I do not want to turn my PDF into a podcast with my team. I want to look at the PDF. Please stop

This is fascism. These are fascists. It is happening. If you don’t know by now, wake the fuck up.

Can comfirm from MN, as can anyone who lives here, that not a THING has changed except little Bovino isnt peacocking around the streets anymore. And there hasn’t been a third high-profile murder of a white person yet. But the gestapo attacks haven’t stopped. At all! bsky.app/profile/jyse...

Abolish ICE. There’s no reforming it. There’s no compromise. There’s only one way to rein in ICE’s terror campaign. Abolish it.

Predicting that this week we’ll hear more conciliatory words from the Administration regarding Minnesota (since they’re starting to realize that ICE has become politically toxic) but everyone outside of Minnesota needs to know that nothing on the ground has changed.

liam and his dad are home! and someone please get rep. castro a coat!

it wasn’t Border Patrol or ICE arresting clergy for peacefully protesting, it was a police department in MN. it’s police in MN using weapons of war to disperse crowds outside hotels where ICE agents sleep. no MN cop put renee good’s killer in cuffs or stopped alex pretti’s killers from fleeing.

Catherine O’Hara was the funniest person alive

Look at this fucking baby. I’m seething. I could lift a car

Amid growing calls for the abolition of ICE, Rep. Delia Ramirez is calling for the entire DHS to be dismantled. Highlighting how much experience the officers who killed Renee Good and Alex Pretti had, Ramirez said, “DHS was built to violate our rights and has been empowered to act with impunity.”

The killing of Alex Pretti and the grotesque lying was an overreach by the administration. They've paid a price and had to pull back a bit. But it's when there's some disarray that the democratic opposition needs to intensify the offensive, and turn a marginal tactical success into a major victory.

Once again: Focusing on their lack of training is a mistake. With "better training," their violence would simply cost more, and they would still kill whoever they wanted, but make it look more professional — to make people more comfortable, the way many of you are at ease with local police violence.

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

“The federal government abducted a kid and used him as bait to try to lure out his parents, who are in the country legally, so they can be detained without charges and sent to Texas” Think about how ridiculous that sounds to someone who hasn’t been paying attention. It sounds like I made it up!

If your solution to the ICE problem is more training and body cams, after Jonathan Ross, a 10 Year ICE veteran, murdered Renee Good and captured the act on his OWN PHONE, you are an enemy of the people and cannot be trusted as a public servant ever again.

hennepin county sheriff’s office ramped up their work helping ICE even as dawanna witt announces her campaign kickoff. reports from whipple say they are acting as crowd control they’ve created a barrier and ICE are barely guarding the gates now because HCSO are doing it for them. this frees up ICE

school being canceled because the president sent armed thugs to harass and imprison the populace for voting against him should be the biggest domestic scandal in american history

Here is another org that can desperately use your help. If a non-citizen get kidnapped by ICE here, regardless of status, they are flying them out of the state as soon as the can. Legal representation can be the difference between seeing your family again, or, given conditions in TX, life and death.

This is CRITICAL. I know you’re all putting your back into mutual aid & a thousand other great things, but if there’s anything left here, so many folks depend on these front-line lawyers right now.

It is so funny that the Save Our Street people in Saint Paul are having all of their meetings at the church led by a pastor whose day job is running the local ICE field office.

The old constitutional order is gone, and we should be straightforward about that. It’s obvious that, whatever else is on the reconstruction agenda, ICE abolition must be included. For goodness’ sake, Bill Kristol is in favor of it. Can you really not get there? trib.al/Au0nOrx

all my neighbors are heroes

I feel like people who are telling folks in Minnesota not to take the bait so Trump doesn’t invoke the Insurrection Act have a lot more good faith in an aging cruel dipshit who is being feed a steady diet of AI slop by scheming viziers who dream of invoking the Insurrection Act than I do.

No one is taking the bait. Regular people armed only with whistles and phones are trying to prevent their neighbors from being disappeared by unaccountable masked armed goons. The differential in power and force between these two sides is so immense it is laughable to even consider them together.

I don’t think people quite understand that the occupation by ICE in the Twin Cities has more or less erased non-white people from public life. They cannot safely exist in any space accessible to the public and moving between private places leaves folks vulnerable to kidnapping by armed masked goons.
