I may have a stroke. Someone said protests don’t belong in church and it took every ounce of self-censure within me not to say “Deborah you are literally a Protestant.” A PROTESTant. I assume they think Luther was nailing Bed, Bath, & Beyond coupons to the door.

Yes, Don Lemmon was arrested, and so were 3 Minnesotans, including journalist Georgia Fort, who shared this video while agents were at her house.

Wanna support a friend/former student who will be running for a San Francisco congressional seat as an independent once he raises filing fee funds. David has been a social worker, health care activist, and housing advocate as a renter for 30 years in the district he seeks to represent.

This 🧵in light of Greg B’s moving/being pushed aside.

“This page exists to correct the Department of Homeland Security's (DHS) repeated false claims regarding the Minnesota Department of Corrections' (DOC) cooperation with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Please see the media fact sheet, press releases, and videos for more information.”

What Eddie says here (and all of what @eddsmitty.bsky.social says on the regular).

What Tim said 😎💙💯

😢

Wow.Not an honest word or actual accurate fact in this statement. Maybe Katie Miller is doing shadow speech writing for DHS again.

Sounds like 47 provided the sound bites for federal agents’ thugster playbook

Because, of course they are seizing evidence. So, @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social and @schumer.senate.gov is this enough now to take real action to remove funding from federal agencies terrorizing US cities, citizens, residents, and asylum seekers?

Spot on piece by editorial cartoonist Bruce MacKinnon.

Goddess, yes, that’s the aptest description of the look yet.

Sack - spot on as usual 😎

As my mom would say, Oh, bless him, that little boy is never going to have friends if he acts that way.

Forced to write a research paper on that flag in 4th grade Minnesota History unit. Still have it. Clearly all plagiarized because no one was asking what actually thought of that busy and biased flag. And, the dog whistlers here still think naming its real and symbolic ugliness is inappropriate.

WTAF - the government that wantonly puts schools, hospitals, courts, churches, and parks under siege shows another of its “bit you can’t do that to ‘our’ people or places,”

Please help us bring Liam Adrian Cornejo Ramos (he’s only 5 years of age and is currently in pre-K. Yesterday, he and his father were kidnapped by ICE. This will help the family with legal services to help reunite Liam and his dad with their family. gofund.me/be8a1b2ab

This 🧵: “Minnesota's open door IS my cherished culture, and I'll fight for it.” 💯 YES!

Reliably insightful analysis from @nation.cymru. Noting at one point: Throughout decades of this Europe has done virtually nothing to curb American excesses on the world stage..Meanwhile, overseas deaths resulting from American military actions since WWII stand between 8-11 million."

Attacking Greenland as an action that brings about war with 31 nations - War Bro Hegselth prolly has an award lined up for Daddy Donny. 🤢

Hollowing out elections —> electoral autocracy

fixed it for you @startribune.com

“…ICE Watch does not spur violence; it reduces it. It’s based on de-escalation tactics that have long historical roots in American antiviolence & civil rights movements, as well as a strong theoretical foundation in countless scientific studies about why violence happens & how it can be prevented.”

To paraphrase one commenter: Who knew you could be a war photographer by staying right in Minnesota?

This fixed headline is spot on.

Yes. Yes. So much yes.

A timely spring term book to donate to your local schools if you’re investing some of your dollars as part of your contributions to resistance in - and beyond - Minnesota. Looking forward to reading this one - and re-reading text of MLK’s speeches in Mankato, my Minnesota hometown.

Minnesota people finding space for doing daily life stuff and mutual aid are becoming targets for the undertrained, overtly toxic federal agents overwhelming the state.

Yes, yes he is.

Yup, this captures the narrative 47 and company being to the world.

That combo of nerves afire with anger, heart painfully linked to historical awareness, and head full of words that won’t order themselves - I recognize this combination today from experiencing it on 6 July 2016, 25 May 2020, and 6 January 2021.

Yes. And Minnesota will - and can - provide this particular justice forward public service.

This is a vetted fundraiser for the family of Renee Good, the woman who was killed by ICE in Minneapolis. www.gofundme.com/f/support-fo...

Yup, that’d be ICE mimicking Bibi’s playbook for IDF in Gaza and the West Bank.

Thankfully, and alas, we have state leadership who have learned how to prosecute people and police committing political murders.

Amen to what this poster notes - and to what Walz says in the accompanying clip. Good to have the Coach back.

Groomed - that’s a key word for describing 47’s personal, political, judicial, and sycophant militias.

Yup. And it serves as a reminder that he listens to no one who isn’t one of the voices in his head.

Alas, that institution seems to be in lack(ey) mode.

Exactly. Can’t run a university & wants to dictate educational policy. Can’t run a steak company & wants to control agricultural markets. Can’t be a hero so erases all others. Can’t succeed in 21st century so wants to restore Daddy’s mid-20th century for attention and self- aggrandizement.

Yes. This👇

💯

🤣😽

Of course they did. Everything this administration releases is infused with lies alongside adulation of their orange false god.

What HCR says:

And the generation of their teachers - at least four of us who were U Iowa grad students in 1991, and were activists with the survivor of that mass shooting, have gone on to teach at campuses where we and our students had to take shelter during a shooting on the new campus.
