Probably the best illustration of how much ICE surged and fanned out after the new year.

Alas, quitting smoking in the decline of an empire: impossible

With the power of the lotr soundtrack, i have finally filed my taxes

Of course noem's statement is alarming. It also reminds me of the first day jake lang, literal nazi, popped up at the whipple building and said they were coming for liberal democrat voters next. I trust that

A Minnesota mystery: White House claims that “local law enforcement” has been cooperating with feds to stop observers. Local agencies claim nothing has changed. Observers report no new cooperation from MPD, SPPD, Ramsey Sheriff. But Hennepin sheriff has suddenly started pulling observers over.

When the Supreme Court allowed immigration agents to consider race during sweeps, Justice Brett Kavanaugh said that citizens shouldn’t be concerned because agents will “promptly let the individual go.” For these Americans, that wasn’t true. (Published Oct. 2025)

Homans announcement just means they’re going somewhere else. TODAY YOU MUST CALL YOUR SENATORS AND DEMAND THEY ABOLISH ICE AND DISMANTLE DHS AND RETURN OUR NEIGHBORS. CLOSE DOWN THE CAMPS!

Ending this operation is not enough. We need justice and accountability. That starts with independent investigations into the murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, economic restitution for businesses impacted, abolishing ICE, and the impeachment of Kristi Noem.

Someone was abducted at 10 AM by ICE on Central Ave. Their coworker says they’ve lived here for over 20 years, are documented, and have 3 kids who were born here. Don’t be fooled by headlines when they’ve been lying to us the whole time. We still need you out patrolling until every agent is gone.

I don't think I trust the words of the guys in charge of the federal agency that just spent the last 3 months lying about everything they did here.

A Kafkaesque saga in which the government has failed to produce critical video footage from an ICE detention facility has reached new levels of absurdity. @jasonkoebler.bsky.social reports. Read here: www.404media.co/government-l...

I am proud of you and our immigrant residents. Your resiliency, strength, and dedication have led to the announcement that “Operation Metro Surge” will end soon. 1/

The person photographed here who is in their bathrobe filming armed, masked federal agents in St. Paul is MPR News journalist @samstroozas.bsky.social @mprnews.org . She is an incredible journalist and person. We do not deserve her.

Walz and Her should be holding news conferences in front of the wreckage at these dramatic scenes like JD Vance did in front of the third precinct

Look, if you know someone who is or was incarcerated in the US you know how abusive the prison system is. They regularly deny prescribed medications, steal inmates' items, months of solitary confinement, endless inhumane shit. So we know those "detention" camps are significantly worse.

NEW: The Trump administration’s push for mass deportations has resulted in more than 18,000 challenges in federal court from immigrants claiming their detention is illegal. We are tracking the increase in these cases 👇

STOP BEING REASONABLE WITH PEOPLE WHO ARE BUILDING CONCENTRATION CAMPS, TORTURING CHILDREN, ENGAGING IN DOMESTIC STATE TERRORISM, AND COMMITTING MURDER

If there are guys wearing electrical worker costumes over the top of their tactical gear, it might be federal agents in disguise, staking out your local Mexican restaurant to see if anyone there doesn't look American enough. apnews.com/article/immi...

In one 30-minute stretch, three legal observers were arrested — as Trump’s Border czar Tom Homan calls on locals to “end the resistance.”

Yeah, I am absolutely not worried about riots or buildings being set on fire. I am worried about my neighbors being fucking shot.

Amy Klobuchar running for Governor of Minnesota

There’s an increase of ICE activity today in South Minneapolis including Powderhorn, Phillips and East Lake Street. Tom Homan wants our community to put its guard down but we won’t be doing that. 1/

TWIN CITIES Armed Citizens Against Tyranny is a HONEYPOT action. No one in the Twin Cities, including the MN Gun Owners association, knows anyone supposedly in this group. Local orgs are STRONGLY urging folks to STAY AWAY from their planned "protest." acatusa.com

I'll be a hundred percent real with you right now, if your number one takeaway from the Epstein files isn't at least parallel to the idea that billionaires simply should not exist, then idk what you're doing.

I’m on the scene at Franklin and 1st. A convoy of about a couple dozen ICE/HSI agents broke the entryway into an apartment building at 6am. No warrant presented. Less than 24 hours ago, Tom Homan announced the end of large convoys in Minnesota… Bullshit.

After 6am this morning in Whittier, Minneapolis—FOUR BLOCKS from where Pretti was murdered. 18 agents with Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) markings smashed an apartment window, ran in, and came out with one man.

The adobe animate drama is so funny to me because i never learned that software. I was taught how to animate in photoshop lol Now i use tvpaint. I have moho but haven't had time to use it yet.

Lost in all the other news today . . . More than 1,500 active-duty troops from Alaska & North Carolina had been on standby to deploy to Minnesota, but were quietly taken off heightened alert over the weekend. Gift link => archive.ph/js8AQ

This is so insane how these agents view the world

So far none of the murderous ICE agents have been held accountable in any way, and we have learned they are all tenured employees of ICE.

BREAKING: The two federal immigration agents who fired on Minneapolis protester Alex Pretti are identified in government records as Border Patrol agent Jesus Ochoa and Customs and Border Protection officer Raymundo Gutierrez.

Turn off your biometric unlocks, folks.

This morning, federal agents staged at the Powderhorn Park Recreation Center lot and began to throw chemical irritants at observers. They also kidnapped an observer. Our parks are meant for our children, youth, and neighbors. They should never be militarized zones meant to separate families. 1/

They just gassed my park. Flash banged, and arrested an observer. Why?? They parked illegally in front of the community center, hung out. Waited till people came out, then gassed. Targeted enforcement my ass

If you see ice agents staging or parked in a Mpls Parks & Rec location, email evidence to: [email protected]

The unspoken rules for protest in the US have been, for decades, that if you have a big tame sign-holding march, it's safe to bring your kids. If you're not perceived as threatening their power, they'll leave you alone. Which means they perceive their unpopularity as a threat to their power

This is just insane. It’s only a matter of time before DHS kills another innocent person here. (clip via MPR and @davidjbier.bsky.social on X)

Just got gassed pretty good at the labor union anti-ICE protest in Portland. Massive march, 5-10k strong. Vibes were very much liberal rather than radical. Lots of kids and older folks. They gassed the whole crowd as soon as it marched on ICE, in broad daylight.

Just experienced the most intense tear gassing of my life by federal officers outside the ICE facility in Portland where marchers gathered. There was no fast exit as they indiscriminately threw loads of gas and flash bangs. Children were in the crowd screaming. @oregoncapitalchronicle.com

a pet store! urban tails pet supply on lyndale ave in the wedge is giving out whistles and holding a pet food and supply drive right now

The murders of Alex Pretti and Renee Good in Minnesota once again show the power of cellphone footage in combating official lies. Recording police or ICE agents is an act of journalism, no matter who does it.

Journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort, who accompanied protesters inside a St. Paul church and documented the action, have been arrested.

they're gonna finally make breaking the law illegal!

DHS has a whole citizen detainment system set up in Minnesota. They snatch citizens off the street (often with proof they are citizens), detain them for a few hours, steal their phones, then release them into the cold. It ain’t about deporting citizens; it’s about terrorizing a whole population.

This is so unhinged

ICE kidnapped a permanent resident in Minnesota today. They let the individual go after realizing they had authorization. Don’t be fooled, ICE is still discriminating against our neighbors based on the color of their skin. 1/

Jesus weeping and throwing up Christ it's not a goddamned "shadow network" it's NEIGHBORS protecting their NEIGHBORS
