Several streets in Minneapolis have been barricaded throughout the day by civilian community defenders to keep Trump's paramilitary ICE forces out of their neighbourhoods. #3E #GoodVsEvil

@barbabney.bsky.social I know we’re not doing requests but can you play living in a city of immigrants. Or a Somali or Spanish song for our neighbors. Has the current ever played a Somali song? It’s public radio after all. Thanks for doing the work! Appreciate you neighbor.

yes, this originally aimed at derailing a gubernatorial campaign that was suspended weeks ago

I remain absolutely furious that all this shit in Minneapolis started because a barely-literate homeschooled mormon made a video trying to run up in daycare centers trying to find people of Somalian descent doing fraud despite the ringleader (a white woman) being in jail since March. Demonic.

-5°F in Minneapolis tonight. At the site where feds killed Alex Pretti, the air still smells faintly of tear gas. Hundreds of people still here behind some impromptu barricades. Message spray painted on the road reads, "fuck ICE, love always wins."

somebody turned this goalie fight into an independent film

You do not have to watch the video. You do not have to watch the video with sound on. You should not watch the video with sound on. You should not watch the video. Do not watch the video.

Fuck ice downtown Minneapolis. Protect our black and brown friends, family and neighbors.

Incredible. The people of Minnesota are inspiring a nation.

in case you're curious about how angry Minnesota is about ICE, it was -20 today

Help. I need protest songs for my Minnesota protest playlist. I specifically need songs that represent the Somali, Latino and indigenous people who call this great place home. Bringing my melt ice sled to the ice out rally and want music to play.

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.

Good morning from Minneapolis. We’re putting on long underwear and listening to Prince’s instructions. youtu.be/O4YVbDCSGAg

The Twin Cities aren’t playing when they say Abolish ICE. Here’s another graphic for our Minnesota friends.

Happy General Strike Day Fuck ICE

these temperatures are actually normal for this time of year. people here are used to it. it's not strange for someone to go outside in a t-shirt when it's thirty below to check the mail. so I could do with less of your judgement and with more of your help getting my penis unfrozen from the sidewalk

It's STFU Friday. Refresh the script 👇

National media should really be covering the fact thay every major school, museum, and arts institution in the Twin Cities, and hundreds of local businesses are closed tomorrow to protest federal occupation. Nothing like this at this scale has happened anywhere in America anytime in living memory.

Idea: Pedophile island but there’s no children, just pedophiles, no food or shelter, and a bunch of hungry wolves.

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

For those outside the Twin Cities, the person posting this GoFundMe is a member of Minneapolis city council (and among the many locals doing absolutely heroic resistance to ICE), so it's legit.

Nasra Ahmed, a 23-year-old US citizen, was arrested and detained by ICE. She was held for TWO DAYS. ICE agents handcuffed her, called her a racial slur, and she was knocked to the ground so hard she got a concussion. This cannot continue happening. ICE needs to leave.

1. Fuck off with the groveling "don't make him angry" abuser language. 2. Stop admonishing protesters. Direct it at ICE and CBP, the organizations driving the violence. 3. Violence does not only help Trump. Violence may well be the only way out of this. But if you grew a spine, it might deter him.

Very cool—thanks for the update! Today I got gassed by the federal government two times within a few blocks of my house

When I was in high school I did a constitutional debate program and witnessed this exchange: JUDGE: what’s your favorite amendment? KID: the third JUDGE: why the third? KID: because if there’s soldiers in your house, the other ones really don’t matter BORN READY FOR 2026

guys minneapolis is a living hell today. they've tear-gassed so many people, tear-gassed a park, beaten people up in front of me. greg bovino is rolling around to gas stations and posing in front of them, trying to cause a riot.

REMINDER! Today is Wednesday, so you better be getting lunch at a immigrant operated restaurant and posting some sexy ass photos of your food at NOON CST!

Happy Hour at BikMN HQ is still on. If you feel safe doing so, we hope you'll swing by for a drink, pet 5x Employee of the Year/Merch Model Extraordinaire Freeda, try on our new merch, and community solidarity. Drinks, snacks, and dog pets are on us tonight. Let us know you're coming ⬇️

hey, y'all. my name is madi and i'm a reporter for the minnesota reformer. i cover the trump administration's impact on minnesotans, which means i've been out on the streets covering ICE in the twin cities. let me walk you through how we got here:

I need this in an IV stat

I mean, someone in a position of real power needs to do something. The people of Minnesota are out in the streets doing amazing things at great personal risk. And people with actual power are doing fuck all for fear of getting yelled at by assholes in airports.

While the world sometimes seems metaphorically on fire right now, global warming is still progressing as well. In 2025, global warming delivered the 3rd warmest year since measurements began. A modest step down from 2024's records, but still well above 20th century norms. 🧪🧵

So far, they are going along with: insurrection invasion of a country pedophilia murder at sea by military murder in our streets by Feds vast corruption starving millions of people worldwide releasing personal data on everyone threatening to end NATO insane tariffs ...

Deadline on this is extended until Wednesday -- and if you want to write about your experience in a short piece (50-200 words) for this call, but need help, I have a group of volunteer writing coaches and professional editors ready to help Minneapolis folks out with this.

Your chance to get Minnesotans tipsy in the middle of their fight against the fascists.

I went to Minneapolis last week. What I saw was horrifying and inspiring in equal measure. Gift link to my latest column: www.nytimes.com/2026/01/19/o...

This is Minneapolis: You sit on a bench in 3 degree weather with a community member and listen to them talk about delivering 18 pizzas from a local immigrant owned business to other community members in need. Their car filled with steam. They have been doing crowdfunded aide for over a week.

Hey all I am having a hard time finding full time work and the bills are piling up. I am working some but it's not enough right now to make ends meet. I know it's tough for a lot of people right now but if you can spare a few bucks I appreciate it. My Venmo is @larry-Nelson-28 . Thanks

it is -10 here today. I was supposed to go do a volunteer shift standing outside loading groceries into people’s cars to deliver to families stuck at home. just got a call not to come in because they have too many volunteers already. if you were wondering if the cold would stop us.
