you guys gotta come back to "ecks the everything app" aka twitter and just fight it out in the trenches with the rest of us

I can't give any information but I can confirm that it is extremely funny. You're just gonna have to trust us.

It doesn't bother me at all. This will happen to everyone one day. So what. Fortnite.

if you're not already following racket by the way you should. great publication.

Mar Espinar, Spain’s PSOE deputy, on Isabel Díaz Ayuso’s support for Trump: “Take your mafioso chief of staff, go to Mar-a-Lago, and leave us here — because we are more like the brave ones from Minnesota”

FOLLOW THE STAR OF THE NORTH TO LIBERTY

THE WORLDWIDE FLAG OF ANTIFASCIST RESISTANCE

Remember, the war with Iran is necessary because it’s unacceptable to have aggressive governments run by theocratic lunatics launching unprovoked attacks on the rest of the world

Second-order effect of everyone and their granny having a whistle is that search and rescue operations on MN hiking trails will be much easier.

yeah, ok, hmmm

And since people are already asking me "Okay, so who IS doing the work?" - here's one school aid network with intense need, supporting hundreds of families and thousands of people. They will use every dollar you send them to protect a scared family currently hiding. www.gofundme.com/f/support-so...

My appeal was granted on the other site. Hehe. I'll try to be more active here though

Sadly, no, it is not. In my opinion.

BAHAHAHAHA

A bustling Friday night in downtown St Paul, MN

Babybel the cat over in catzen, St Paul MN Why isn't the media covering this....

Hey everyone 😇 Mass reports have triggered an automatic suspension on X. I have filed an appeal, as automatic license plate reader software is legal throughout the USA. Flock Safety's account should also be suspended if I remain so (; Follow me here in the meantime for MSP content.

This can’t be reformed, only destroyed before it kidnaps and kills again.

Cutest whistle award

Not my heckin tweeterino!!!!! They got my twweeterino!!!!!!

*millennial voice* sooooo we did a thing.... This software has existed for some weeks and has been being tested by dozens of people in the twin cities and elsewhere the whole time. It gets better every iteration. DM for questions

A scene from the twin cities: I walk down to get lunch at a local pizza place on break. Turns out there's someone I know from organizing there. We chat. Turns out they're coincidentally having a meeting so I go over and introduce myself to everyone.

One last thing about this piece before I move on - I think the “opsec versus open resistance” debate is really important, and has been a defining theme of Minnesota’s fight against ICE. I’m pretty sure I told the Verge folks - repeatedly - that I thought it would be important to cover. I still do!

i've decided not to listen to the audio of a teacher reporting a kindergartender because frankly I don't want to become the person that that event would turn me into. but one thing I hope we are collectively coming to grips with is what it meant that we have lived among such people this whole time

There are so many incredible characters doing this. People who you’d never suspect would be capable of just relentless bravery and determination. People you’d walk past without noticing, but who are literally putting everything on the line to protect their neighbors, still, today, every day.

also one of the craziest evolutions of rapid response is how a month ago you'd be trying to get a plate check and you'd be like "VBZ 2552" and then have to repeat it 12 times and now 90% of us know the NATO alphabet and you'll get these girls going "Victor! Bravo! Zulu!" like they're fighter pilots

The Star Tribune has doxxed the city of Isle, MN. Now we all know where it lives

It's actually really good for the health of our ongoing movement that it hasn't been monopolized by one faction, whether that be the anarchists, the marxists, or the liberal non profit industrial conflict. Im not being sectarian here: you don't want a clique running everything

My cat Luna when she was a baby kitten

My theory of the moment: The extraordinary courage of ordinary people in places like Minneapolis is reawakening us to our social and economic ties to immigrants. It's making "love thy neighbor" cool again. That's the ultimate antidote to MAGA hate. Thoughts on this: newrepublic.com/article/2059...

New ICE vehicles being delivered plus ICE using mud to conceal their license plate, Fort Snelling, MN Feb 15 2026

A veteran who got all his care at Alex Pretti's VA and knew him speaks. "When they executed Renee I was pissed. When they executed Alex I became fucking vengeful"

One lesson I learned quickly is that when organizing you have to think "goal first, tactic second", with the tactic in service of the goal. People who show up for violence are, for whatever reason, focused on the "tactic" of violence and retroactively coming up with goals to justify it afterwards

They/Theminnesota

A sickening event. The streets of St Paul and Minneapolis are not safe for disabled or elderly people

Will Fox be updating their story on this and giving it the same amount of airtime as they did initial arrest?

The full scale of the resistance in Minnesota will never be captured. So many millions of acts of resistance and kindness faded into Signal chat disappearing messages, with only the memory of those helping and those helped to remain

I want a deck of playing cards with this on the backs

Operation "Beacon Bright and Clear" remains in effect until we see evidence of withdrawal of occupying secret police.

the observers are relentless. our scientists are making rapid advances in the field. the ICE menace has met their match.

The announcement today of Metro Surge ending is a "I'll believe it when I see it" type deal. However, and this has been the mood on the ground for weeks, it always felt impossible for the people of Minnesota to lose, because of the hard work and incredible strength of the community

This episode has been a nightmare for my city and state, but I hope people realize it’s also a profound defeat and political catastrophe for Trump and DHS, who are slinking away having accomplished nothing. Minneapolis simply wouldn’t bend to them and they lost
