genuinely stunning image

I'm on the Green Line towards downtown Minneapolis ICE OUT protest. The train filled immediately. Even 20 stops away from our destination we reached capacity. People are cheering at every stop when they see people waiting to board because we are all starting to realize how big this is.

They are never, ever going to win in Minnesota.

It’s -9 degrees. Downtown Minneapolis is packed for the anti-ICE rally and the crowd keeps growing

It's STFU Friday. Refresh the script 👇

In solidarity with today's ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA blackout, MinnMax is donating $1 to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota for every share of this Bluesky post for the next hour.

Hell yeah!

MN protestors #protip put 2 Idaho Russets in the oven at 420 degrees for 45 min, take them out and foil wrap, 1 in each pocket before you go out. Theyll stay warm for 3-4 hours even in this weather and you can eat em when you like. They used to send us kids out like this back in the 70s trust me.

a major metropolitan area is under occupation and i would love to see *zero* more posts claiming "it's an intentional distraction from this other thing" or "actually makes sense for politicians to talk about other issues right now because this doesn't poll as well"

Update: Now 120 cities are holding Minneapolis General Strike solidarity actions paydayreport.com/minneap/

ICE wants us to cower. The moment requires us to fight back! TOMORROW, on January 23, all around the country we stand in strength, love and solidarity against ICE's campaign of violence and fear #ICEOUT. Take Action: https://seiu.co/ICEOut

I have been actively involved in protest movements for 24 years. I have never seen anything approaching this scale. Minneapolis is not accepting what's happening here. ICE fucking murdered a woman for participating in this, and all that did is bring out more people, from more walks of life.

A major coalition is launching a general strike in Minnesota tomorrow, aimed at pushing out ICE. It includes: -Amalgamated Transit Union Local 1005 -The MN AFL-CIO -SEIU Local 26 -UNITE HERE Local 17 -CWA Local 7250 -Saint Paul and Minneapolis Federations of Educators -Faith leaders And more. 🧵

Mafia goon: Nice house you got here...it'd be a shame if something happened to it Media outlets: Mafia goon rules out use of force. Expresses regret at the mere thought of it

It’s been 15 years since I’ve lived in Seattle and I still stubbornly refuse to use an umbrella.

I have been told that this undercover ICE agent tried to get observers to scan a QR code “for his website”. The QR code did not resolve to a link. DO NOT SCAN UNKNOWN QR CODES FROM STRANGERS. This is a massive security risk! Bad things can happen to you if you do it! Stay frosty, friends.

If only he were our mayor.

Not sure about this Buffy reboot.

these heated rivalry promos are getting wild

I spoke to a friend on the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota board. They need financial donations to keep up with the heightened demand for their services: www.ilcm.org ILCM is a nonprofit that provides free immigration legal representation to low-income immigrants and refugees in MN & ND

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

Ina Garten hosting a season of Worst Cooks but call it, How Bad Could That Be?

If you live in the Cities, an easy way to help immigrant families in hiding is: laundry! Laundromats are ICE magnets, so people without washers need help. The People’s Laundry will drop off laundry to your door to wash and dry and pick up a few days later: thepeopleslaundrympls.com/volunteer/

Minnesota hotels are closing because of safety concerns and workers at other hotels are scared to go to work. Here's a union fund for affected members.

I just want people to know that there is no active insurrection, no regular protests, no rioting or whatever. The only time people are in the streets is when masked armed ICE thugs descend on one of our neighbors to disappear them as part of a federal government-led ethnic cleansing campaign.

I regret to report that for the second day in a row, I have left my ear buds at home and will be once again raw dogging the bus.

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!

Please read and share with anyone who might be planning on counterprotesting in Cedar-Riverside this weekend

Normally don’t do this, but the Twin Cities are occupied and there are a lot of folks I know who are helping people with very acute needs. I know a lot of good folks out there have offered to help or want to know how they can help, so I may occasionally boost fundraisers for folk or causes I trust.

new york city is Real America. los angeles is Real America. chicago is Real America. minneapolis is Real America. seattle, portland, detroit etc etc. sick of this framing that it's otherwise. shut the fuck up

So many people are so angry about this, and even as ICE becomes more violent and confrontational, even more and more regular people are joining into the effort to protect their neighbors. It’s inspiring.

One thing I’d like to see is my senators and governor every day on tv at 5pm holding a press conference with video of every documented abuse that ICE is doing. Curate all of the witnessing we’re doing and show it to the press.

Want to help people in Minneapolis right now? Here are a lot of ways to help!

Saw more of these today, seen on Lake Street in Uptown Minneapolis. Person walks past large wheat pasted posters of Renee Good that read: "Renee Nicole Good" "American Mom" "Murdered by ICE"

My PS5 controller has so much drift it’s being retroactively edited into The Fast & The Furious 3

After the assassination of Melissa Hortman it’s not hard to understand why a woman in Minnesota would be afraid of a man in a mask who says he’s a cop.

We cannot be more clear. Leave us the fuck alone.

Minneapolis.

A friend in Minneapolis just sent me this video. Looks like thousands have come together for a vigil after an ICE agent shot and killed 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good. This was my neighborhood for several years before coming to Portland.

Six Feet Under.

Putting this here, Twin Cities. They have openings this weekend. Make space for the continued grief. www.thegriefroom.com

Also a reminder that this account isn’t a Rapid Response account! If you witness ICE activity, call Monarca 612-441-2881. The number can also accept texts. Here’s a guide to reporting:

Remember: Federal officials do not enjoy categorical, absolute immunity from state-level prosecutions. They are entitled to removal to federal court. But conduct that is unreasonable or unnecessary for the execution of their law enforcement duties is susceptible to criminal prosecution.

Any Democrat still afraid to say "Abolish ICE" should resign and be replaced with someone who gets it.

Disarm, disband, and prosecute ICE

Absolutely horrific details about an ICE shooting in Minneapolis. A witness says a woman was trying to drive away from an ICE operation and the ICE agent "reached across the hood of the car and shot her in the face like three, four times." Bovino was there. www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...
