The arrests of Don Lemon and Georgia Fort underscore the gravity of this moment. This has never happened before in our history. We shouldn't pretend it's normal. More reason for us to hold the line and demand a DHS budget that stops funding lawlessness.

What the US TikTok takeover is already revealing about new forms of censorship | Paolo Gerbaudo

The organizers & patrollers here in Minnesota are eager to share what they’ve (far too painfully) learned. They’ve got a distributed network with some broadly shared tools — that we can learn from.

The kid was so delighted to show me this piece and it’s lovely once you get past this image www.playboy.com/read/lifesty...

Just take a second to process this. ICE are falsely posing as NG so they can snatch kids from schools. Can you imagine ANY other circumstances in which ANY sane person would think this is OK? No, you can't.

This is a good thread

Yeah. See, that only really happens to women who express themselves on the Internet.

Jenn Budd worked as a Border Patrol agent from 1995 to 2001. Since then, she has become an outspoken immigrants' rights activist. "The management of the Border Patrol has been corrupt for many generations," says Budd.

I spent three years of my kidhood in Boulder. Seeing this image has me back there. The losses keep coming.

Jeez.

Germany has issued a travel advisory to its citizens travelling to the United States, citing risks linked to immigration enforcement and public-order situations. www.newsweek.com/germany-issu...

Given the headlines about Alex Pretti, I think it’s important to remind people that tens of thousands (if not more) ICE observers are in the Twin Cities and the vast majority are making it home every night. The violence is meant to intimidate, but they can’t go after a whole community.

Minnesota needs impartial investigations, the departure of federal forces, and an end to the campaign of retribution against our state.

A reminder that ICE hasn’t slowed down in Minneapolis at all. Outside of Minnesota, it might feel like everything has changed since Alex Pretti’s murder. But ICE hasn’t actually lost any power and they’re continuing to terrorize our communities.

Masked government thugs snuffed out Alex Pretti’s life in broad daylight | Moira Donegan

This is happening across my neighborhood (& further). 7 weeks in to this federal occupation, many neighbors are out of food & at risk of eviction. I don’t know how else to sound the alarm. Things are dire. NOW. We need ICE out & eviction moratorium and more support to keep folks fed & housed.

The needs have intensified x10 since I shared this fundraiser earlier in Dec. Help us help our neighbors in Minneapolis: PayPal.me/lyndalepto

I've been following news at #Upscrolled for a few days and I'm really pleased that all the #TikTok refugees are switching to a Palestinian app (which is great, by the way!). There's a lot of momentum at the moment.

TikTok has been under new leadership for like a day and I made a slideshow with posts from the ICE rally today and it immediately got out under review and is not being published. Incredible.

Gay crow !!!

I know it's hard to track all the threats to democracy out there right now, but this is at the top of the list.

JUST IN: Lawyers file declaration in federal court from first-hand witness to immigration agents' shooting of a US citizen onlookers today. Minneapolis Mayor Frey said details would be used to bolster case for ousting ICE from city. Doc: www.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

WHENEVER we act together people who themselves are unimaginative and politically impoverished claim some underground cabal. I've been accused of similar in my shared governance work and sexual harassment work. It's always just a Signal chat of do-gooders with silly pseudonyms.

I think this could work

🔥REP. @aoc.bsky.social : “How rich @KristiNoem says showing up with a legal firearm is grounds for execution when they support Rittenhouse & pardon protestors… we cannot go down this road, countryman against countryman… they’re trying to keep us divided so they can line their own pockets.”

This is helpful today.

Perhaps it's relevant for American media and companies to know that there are now various apps that allow European citizens to see the origin of products they want to buy, and in case they come from the USA, the app offers European alternatives. It's been discussed in detail on TV evening news... >

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

screen printing as resistance

I 100% believe that it will be a meme that eventually takes this godforsaken administration down.

Five from Ashland. Okay, Chequamegon Bay, but that’s a sizable percentage of local clergy.

Turns out that incorrectly telling the American people that masked goons have absolute immunity to do whatever they want to them is not a particularly popular position.

This is such valuable advice and put plainly. Please take a moment. TY @tressiemcphd.bsky.social

These all sound like reasonable suggestions, and I’m also Beyond livid.

The thing about America today is that if you just describe what is happening objectively and unemotionally you sound hysterical and partisan and what you have to remind people is that the reason for that is not you, it's the people doing the things you are describing
