Who's got a favorite piece of Anti-ICE agitprop?

American Indian Movement (AIM) patrol trucks have been spotted around NE and folks are flagging them as suspicious and giving them unwelcoming glances because they don’t know who they are. This is the AIM logo and flag, which you might see on their trucks. They are friends!

A video in Minneapolis appears to show a federal agent kneeing a man in the face while he is being arrested.

damn -- CNN put together a video of Kristi Noem claiming ICE officers are "highly trained and skilled" and "gifted" alongside to a clip of them beating someone nearly to death in Minneapolis

It’s absolutely crazy that multiple people have asked me for help because they think I am some sort of authority in establishing an anti-ICE parent patrol at their kid’s preschool. This is not a fucking type of knowledge that should exist. But if you need this help, reach out, I guess.

2,000 detentions so far from their surge in Minnesota, DHS says Some of that is citizens beaten & held for 8 or 12 hours & then released And some is tearing families from each other indefinitely I will campaign for the politician, whoever they are, who says "Dismantle DHS & REUNITE EVERY FAMILY"

So she had a pulse. That’s what the doctor on the scene wanted to check. She wasn’t breathing, but she had a pulse. He could have started CPR right away. Instead ICE barred the doctor from attending her and waited 15 mins for EMT to get to her.

The 6-month-old that DHS is tweeting about here lived in the neighborhood and the baby’s father was just trying to evacuate his family after federal agents had shot someone.

Because the media does not know how to frame what is happening, they keep referring to regular Minnesotans as protesters. But there is very explicit training that so many people done to learn how to be a constitutional observer. People are bearing witness to kidnappings, with phones and whistles.

Man it's weird being kept awake rehearsing what to say and do if ice comes in my building and tries to take my neighbors.

Aliya Rahman told ICE she was disabled She told them she was on her way to a doctor appt They broke her window, cut her seatbelt & dragged her away like an animal She was headed to the Traumatic Brain Injury Center when they grabbed her. She was denied access to a doctor & tossed in detention

If you are running a company and you have 100 interfaith clergy invading your headquarters to demand a meeting over a moral issue, your profits better be really fucking high. Now to log on and see how Target is doing.

Evelyn Normielib (D-MN) has arrived at the scene of the ICE shooting in northern Minneapolis

“Hey! I'm so glad you reached out. I'm actually at capacity / helping someone else who's in crisis / dealing with some personal stuff right now, and I don't think I can hold appropriate space for you. Could we connect [later date or time] instead / Do you have someone else you could reach out to?”

It’s been crazy and so much has changed so quickly. I’ve made so many new friends and met so many neighbors, but it’s also shown how wonderful the friends I already had are. Friends helping with everything: printing whistles, helping patrol at my kids’ schools, donating coffee for volunteers. Damn.

Dan T is the real deal. Read this.

it's also just a wild accent to hear people get angry in. weirder than hearing a swiss german have a meltdown. just all these little flutes and honks on top of the rage

the wildest thing is right-wingers acting like minnesotans in videos must be outside agitators when we can all hear their accents. i don't think i could do that accent convincingly if i spent a year practicing. and neither would i wish to. have you heard that shit? craziest american accent

Got tear gassed for the first time fuck ice

I love it when the State Patrol helicopter circles my neighborhood for hours with no explanation.

Minneapolis woman has her home torn up after federal agents serve search warrant on the wrong address. youtu.be/_mulYNgbs14?...

🚨 BREAKING: MN clergy have successfully secured a meeting with Target CEO Brian Cornell! 🔊 We’re glad Cornell agreed to meet. But real leadership means action. We’ll keep organizing until Target uses its power to protect its workers, its customers, and communities across our state. #ICEOutOfMN

This is why I keep sharing “This is Minneapolis” snippets. People want to know what’s happening. The severity of the impact isn’t getting to many folks via traditional media. I highly recommend being ready w/ links for folks to donate & help after you story dump (IME that’s their next question).

Early this week I apologized in a chat as the only Minnesotan for spamming (ha ha, reference) with our latest news seemingly every 45 minutes, and it was deeply validating to be told straight up "No, please keep us updated. We know the news isn't telling the full story. We need to know the truth."

I just got a call from a relative letting me know his close friend’s mother was kidnapped by ICE while she was heading to work. We’re close to our goal, but we need your help to bring Lidia Escobar Maya home. This will help with lawyer and bond fees. Working is not a crime. 💔 gofund.me/c4fd43a62

This is a Norm appreciation post.

It’s been reported locally, but I’m not sure how much national notice this has gotten. As part of this invasion by shithead goons, they are putting ICE agents in jetbridges and other parts of the airport at Minneapolis-Saint Paul. If you are flying Delta via MSP, you are putting yourself at risk.

I don't know why you'd attend this as a Democrat but if you do the minimum requirement is to shout "pedophile protector" like that factory worker did

Posts from Minneapolis residents read like they'll be read in voiceover in a Ken Burns-like doc one day

Folks the man illegally taken when ICE rammed through the door on Sunday is free!!

Was just thinking about this & how identity in this state is going to pivot on this occupation for decades to come. Did you stand up, push past your boundaries, sacrifice even a little bit to help and even save others? Or did you play it safe & maybe even outright collaborate? People will remember.

protestors have painted what appears to be a tunnel on the side of the mountain, causing ICE agents to run into the mountain at full speed. disgusting.

Bro, people are going to build entire lives around the neighbors they’ve found in these anti-ICE signal chats. Marriages, lifelong friendships, weird hobbies. It is actually breaking my brain. I am almost crying in the club (chat).

If they do end up making a “list” of protesters… Thanks for documenting which side I was on for future generations, I guess. I’d rather that be crystal fucking clear to my kids and any future grandchildren than ever have them wonder, tbh.

I have to wait outside for Talmage’s elementary school bus every afternoon because I don’t trust that he will get from the stop at the corner of the block to our house safely without getting menaced by a bunch of armed masked dipshits who work for the federal government.

Shawn and Destiny Jackson's 6 children were endangered when ICE threw flash bangs and tear gas at their car. 911 instructed Destiny on how to do CPR. "When we did finally get out the car, of course, my baby was lifeless. So, I did the CPR and mouth to mouth." An extraordinarily composed couple.

why would they intentionally post this??

Lewiston, Maine: “One property manager whose tenants are almost exclusively African immigrants showed a reporter a form being passed around so undocumented parents could designate temporary guardians for their children in the event of their arrest.”

DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin on "acts of violence" against ICE agents in Minnesota: "Pouring water on the ground so that it would freeze the ground in front of our federal law enforcement vehicles so that they would potentially slide, crash, and potentially kill them"

Jason Chavez for Secretary General of the Minnesota Central Committee. Ventura for some sort of ceremonial head of state role.

My exurban split ticket voting in-laws showed up to No Kings events last year *before* the ICE surge because things had gone way too far even for them. And now ICE stuff has escalated to [gestures to all of MN] this! #AbolishIce is not only morally right. It’s a winning message! End this shit now.

@angiecraigmn.bsky.social was the ONLY Minnesota Democrat to vote for the Laken Riley Act. The only one to vote to praise ICE. Even today, with ICE in our streets, she stands by her pro-Trump votes.

The people of Minnesota are gonna win

It took me five minutes to throw this together, print, and have available at the quizzo my husband and I run in rural VT. We gave out nearly 50. Doing something to help is sometimes really as easy as this!

I am very proud of my union this past week, and especially proud of the courage from a long list of specific members of our union.

"It may be that now is no longer the time for statements, but for us — with our bodies — to stand between the powers of this world and the most vulnerable”

I’m seeing posts from people (outside of MN) about how US citizens should carry their passports. And let me say that *inside* MN, we are calmly responding to requests with: “No, I don’t have to show you any documentation.” Because that’s how you protect everyone, regardless of immigration status.

Four Black Hawks and a Chinook all out at the same time seems like a truly excessive amount of military helicopters
