This 53 year old man who lived in my neighborhood w/no criminal record & who had been in the US for 30 years, was detained and thrown into a cold cell for days, caught pneumonia and COVID there and deported. He finally died. I am so angry. www.kptv.com/2026/02/21/n...

It's so striking to me all the essays about the death of the humanities and who and what to blame and blah blah blah and the answer is pretty much the undergraduate business major and everything it represents.

0. Asian. Not picky.

WE WANT ALL OF OUR NEIGHBORS BACK.

What about his crimes against humanity? Will anyone care about those? Or even remember them?

"I have no idea what he was saying, but my racism tells me it was something really bad."

Friends from Minneapolis reporting to me that things are at the point where folks are being hidden in other people's houses and we are in the "again" part of "never again" which the "never" was supposed to preclude

Just in the past few months in Minnesota, there have been as many ICE employees arrested for sex trafficking as there's been people executed by ICE agents

AMAZING to hear their Bible-thumping hypocrisy called out. Finally!

This is the 38th time that the U.S. military has unlawfully killed civilians on the orders of Pete Hegseth and Donald Trump. At least 130 people — never charged with crimes, their identities unknown to their executioners — are now dead.

I was telling one of my own grad students this just the other day.

“Renee was not the first person killed, and she was not the last,” Becca Good said. “You know my wife’s name and you know Alex’s name, but there are many others in this city being harmed that you don’t know — their families are hurting just like mine, even if they don’t look like mine.”

Elon has killed more people than the first Punic war when he slashed USAID 760,000 people starved to death within months, not including long term damage which will reach into the millions. If he had killed himself before he got DOGE? A million people would still be alive. Fuck him, and Fuck you.

in real terms, #7 would give states leverage to put an end to surges, #8 would give states the ability to outright stop construction of new detention facilities, #1 and #6 would slow the rate at which DHS could train and deploy officers, #2 and #10 would likely shrink the pool of recruits

This is unreal. An AUSA talking like that in open court is about as close as you can come to a total breakdown. Never heard of anything like it.

Go Marimar!

You got a citation for that Pastor Sycophant?

You know you studied linguistics if…

They want you not to care. They want you not to care that this is wrong and it is happening and it's happening all around us. Most of all, they want you not to care about these people. And we can't let them.

This article is a very good example of why "more training" and "more vetting" isn't the answer. Jesus Ochoa and Raymundo Gutierrez joined Border Patrol in 2018 and 2014 respectively. These aren't new agents. www.propublica.org/article/alex...

Elon is not only pedo-adjacent. He's also a mass murderer. So there's that.

Don Lemon is not the only reporter who was arrested by federal agents overnight — local independent journalist Georgia Fort just went live on FB to say federal agents were also at her door to take her into custody over her protest coverage in Minneapolis.

Don was taken into custody by federal agents last night in Los Angeles.

I wrote for the New York Times about how state violence that was hidden in the borderlands has burst into view in Minneapolis. The solution cannot be simply to send it back there www.nytimes.com/2026/01/29/o...

I hate to tap the sign but again: this is all made to make in-person education and access to knowledge transfer a preserve of the elite. Human education for the few, bots for the many.

So if the entire state of MN sat back and allowed Miller's Gestapo to remove all the immigrants, whatever their status, along with some of their US citizen children, then this entire operation would come to a quick peaceful end. Sure, Himmler.

Homan’s message was crystal clear: Unless Miller, Noem and Homan go the problem will remain, our rights will be trampled, innocent people will suffer and die. They don’t feel any remorse or regret for the pain they have inflicted, the damage they have done.

please remember that no matter how many “ICE is losing in MN” articles you read today, there is still a very real, urgent, ongoing crisis in Minnesota. people need food and they need rent money. that has not changed.

I know all eyes are on Minneapolis, but there's a fast-approaching nightmare in Springfield, Ohio. Trump is revoking protected status for tens of thousands of Haitians living there on Feb. 3. Reportedly, on Feb. 4, 1000 ICE agents are arriving to remove this population. Ethnic cleansing.

Important. There has not been a deescalation.

ICE activity has not noticeably tapered off yet here and in fact this week they seem to be focused on terrorizing kids at bus stops and schools.

Donald J. Trump: "We're bringing back God" God:

The people around me either cannot stop thinking about Minnesota or have already stopped thinking about Minnesota.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

Nope. Son of Holocaust survivor. My father was 11 when the Nazis invaded his hometown in eastern Poland. He survived only by fleeing to a different city with a false baptismal certificate. The comparison is apt. Carry on.

Sen. Ruben Gallego, D-Ariz., rolls out his demand for supporting a DHS appropriations bill: fire Stephen Miller

i have just gotten off a productive call with sauron where i laid out our requests - nazgul bodycams - morgul knife must remain sheathed unless suspect is determined to be carrying the one ring - shelob will be the new point of contact

DHS is not acting in good faith. Warrants for arrests is a legal minimum and they’ve been ignoring it—so why would they start now? What about all the times they ignored court orders about chemical agents? This doesn’t even require that those agents unmask and if it did, what if agents ignore?

It is completely fair to be angry at the people with public profiles - pundits, politicians, businessmen - who fucked this one up until Minnesota was under siege to the point where only white people can leave their homes and agents of the state are murdering with impunity.

Apparently our electricity bills are going through the roof and this is partly related to data centers that hog huge amounts of electricity to generate information. I, for one, feel hopping mad about this. The companies that are using the data centers should bear the cost. time.com/7355839/why-...

I’m also breaking a little news here. Avelo ending its ICE flights isn’t as great as you might’ve thought. (Sorry.) They sold the planes to the company DHS hired to stand up their own deportation fleet. 5/

The march is now passing the Chicago city hall / Cook County hall building. The chant goes up, "Minnesota don't you fear, we, the people, are right here"

In case anyone was wondering how it’s going over on American Girl doll Instagram

People are right to be incensed, but there are more names to uplift. ICE killed an immigrant man named Silverio Villegas González in Chicagoland. He had children. Victor Manuel Diaz was kidnapped in Minneapolis and died in ICE custody on January 14. Their names deserve to be repeated, too.

Mirror-imaging. They could never imagine putting themselves on the line for another person or their community (remember JD Vance's theory of love, that it extends only to your family and no one else?) and they know any "resistance" on their end would be purely transactional - so they assume the same

It's really distressing the extent to which in all of this Silverio Villegas González, the first man to be murdered by ICE in the streets, has been almost completely forgotten Moreover, ICE must be destroyed
