i found some great places to donate using the list put together by @ziibiing.com don't give your money to consultants for some vague promise, give it to people who will go out right now, today, and buy a car full of groceries for a family that's too afraid to leave their home.

“[T]he vast majority of men are only willing to engage in public violence if they feel like the people around them will approve of—and reward them for—that violence. ICE Watch works because it surrounds men seeking approval with people loudly expressing their disapproval.”

There we go! That's the spirit!!

Powderhorn Art Sled party in the middle of an occupation. Losers can’t stop us.

If you work for ice please understand that your kids will laugh at a character based on you dying in an action movie before the end of the decade. They’ll be in movies for really little kids. Like Phineas and Ferb shit. There will be an action figure of you with a detachable head

Thinking about how Mamdani ran on local kitchen table economic issues and didn’t seem insane because that actually *was* what people were concerned about. When Jeffries and Schumer talk about egg prices during a *nationalized* conversation about moms getting shot in the face — they sound insane.

From an optics perspective... the protesters being the ones waving the US flag while Bovino et al looks like every awful nazi inspired movie we've ever seen... hats off to Minnesotans.

Hard not to draw a line between the lack of fear being shown in the face of ICE goons and the fact that right-wingers have spent a decade talking about how scary trains are. They just keep signalling their cowardice over and over.

Kavanaugh stop

Four GOP Senators. At most four Repubs in the House. Together they could stop nearly all the mad-king's rampages. They would be known to history as Profiles in Courage. They might/would lose the next election. But people have sacrificed a lot more, for a lot less.

The “protect the children” and “wE dON’t coPaReNT wItH the GoVErnMenT” people sure are quiet about children getting harmed by the government. We all know why. abcnews.go.com/US/live-upda...

When guys who are the physical embodiment of Vikings jerseys chase you out of the bar screaming at you, you really have lost the propaganda war

Pluribus reddit discourse is so funny. “Are we supposed to root for Carol” you are supposed to watch how her character interacts with the world “she’s very unlikable” wow that’s crazy can they do that

I will legit be happy to donate to the DFL if "Dismantle & Abolish ICE & DHS" are part of the statewide platform

Tolkien is a great writer for dark times, not least because he understood that fighting even when you are certain you will lose is infinitely more moral than giving in to despair and doomerism.

He has a clear history of lying and should not be trusted regarding anything happening in MN. www.fox9.com/news/border-...

One of the foundational problems of our era is that we have broadly—in news media, in voter perceptions, in public discourse, etc—decided that Republicans have zero responsibility to the public, zero responsibility for their choices, & no agency as elected officials. Its destroying us.

What I’m doing is no different than what thousands of other Minnesotans are doing to try and protect our neighbors. We are patrolling our kids’ schools, we are buying groceries, we are following ICE around in our compact cars. This is how we are fighting a regime hell-bent on destroying our country.

2 ICE tactics I’ve learned of recently via neighborhood signal chats: -gaining access to a large apartment building, pulling fire alarm so everyone exits -driving around blaring ice cream truck music through a loudspeaker Pure fucking evil

Nick Miroff: After 9/11, George W. Bush created the Department of Homeland Security to prevent future terror strikes. Now DHS shifted from defending the country against foreign terrorists to deploying agents on American streets for the purpose of terrorizing American citizens.

They nearly killed this woman. Then they went on national TV and tried to smear her.

One of the things that comes out clearly here but isn't stressed enough in the national media is the degree to which the DHS goons in Minneapolis are terrorizing citizen, legal resident and undocumented folks alike. It is a campaign of racist terror, more than an immigration enforcement operation.

never, ever, believe a rightist who starts extolling the virtues of free speech. they don't mean what you'd mean by it.

Grok is so much worse than you think.

You're paying for this. Trump's Big Ugly Bill gave BILLIONS to ICE and giant corporations—using money meant to lower your health care costs. Instead of helping your mom get cancer treatment, your tax dollars are being used to terrorize communities.

Anna Brauch said an ICE agent grabbed her by handcuffs, and used all his strength to yank her repeatedly around the car. She told him: “You're breaking my hands, you’re breaking my hands.” He told her: “I don’t fucking care. Shut the fuck up. Shut the fuck up.” (6) www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

MAGA is indeed a serious problem, but the existence of the institution is also a serious problem. We should not abide the existence of a "law enforcement" department which kidnaps US citizens because they're brown or have accents. We should not abide the existence of those who say "papers please"

"ICE and Border Patrol have fired their guns at people in their cars at least 14 times since July, but none have been convicted, and none have been charged with a crime. We found no examples of those agents being even put on administrative leave or subjected to any internal discipline."

Fraud is a serious crime that merits laying siege to an entire city and collectively punishing every immigrant from Somalia. It's also a crime for which you can be pardoned and relieved of compensating your victims, so long as some of the money you stole finds its way to the president.

I want to single this out because the diagnosis of a failure of non violent resistance is a combination of not realizing what non violent resistance *is* and what its success looks like, and wanting the world to move at the speed of posting.

The 6-month-old that DHS is tweeting about here lived in the neighborhood and the baby’s father was just trying to evacuate his family after federal agents had shot someone.

I wrote about this in @spitfirenews.com yesterday, but the pretense for the federal government to brutalize you—up to and including murder—is now simply that you live in a place that swung blue during the last election. Just living there means they’ll literally call you a radical rioting agitator.

"We're ending the war on protein," "whole milk is back." I guess that's probably really amazing news if you're stupid

The areas of medicine where these guys want us to “do our own research” are notably the exact same areas where a) they sell stuff, and b) it’s hard to tell on your own what’s true. Few would say “don’t listen to experts” when looking at a complex compound fracture or someone having a heart attack

One thing that people don't understand is that the community base opposing ICE is extremely committed to avoiding anything that could trigger rioting, I think largely because of the 2020 experience. Trump thinks he can redo 2020 but shoot the protesters this time, but Minneapolis isn't the same.

Aliya Rahman told ICE she was disabled She told them she was on her way to a doctor appt They broke her window, cut her seatbelt & dragged her away like an animal She was headed to the Traumatic Brain Injury Center when they grabbed her. She was denied access to a doctor & tossed in detention

I have to wait outside for Talmage’s elementary school bus every afternoon because I don’t trust that he will get from the stop at the corner of the block to our house safely without getting menaced by a bunch of armed masked dipshits who work for the federal government.

Disgusting. The only way back is consequences for these fucking scumbags.

It’s so fucking infantilizing to be told over and over about ignoring bait, like we’re all chomping at the bit for a fight or something What I wouldn’t give for just a single elected to have our back instead of this shit that implies we are some unruly mob in need of constant checking

elected democrats who want their constituents to remain non-violent in their protests of these abuses must actually offer a path for ending the abuses non-violently. they currently are not as a party and it’s a major problem.

Before I fly on a plane I review the structural integrity and flight test data.

I’m seeing posts from people (outside of MN) about how US citizens should carry their passports. And let me say that *inside* MN, we are calmly responding to requests with: “No, I don’t have to show you any documentation.” Because that’s how you protect everyone, regardless of immigration status.

While the pasty incels who work the federal agencies continue to churn out feeble, bloodless AI pastiches of Axis propaganda, here’s how a living breathing artist powerfully invokes design history. This is by illustrator Emily K in South Philly, a free poster-sized download on her website: →

The key is to force an actual debate on the question of a permanent militarized Federal internal security state, something that nobody actually voted for and very few people want, and not just let them smuggle the premise in via the terms of debate.

This is why they don't allow congress people in

Pastor Bodrick absolutely cooking

It will become increasingly important for people to take video and protect and save that video so that when there is finally an accounting for what’s happening, there will be evidence.

It almost seems as though ICE isn't engaged in targeted immigration efforts like the administration claims and is instead harassing and detaining anyone with darker skin.

The core truth of the Trump era, and the one that journalism is forbidden from stating out loud, is that Trump has gathered around him a constituency of the country's worst people. That's what most distinguishes them -- not economic status, age, where they live, anything else. It's shittiness.
