Minnesota is turning up the heat. Melt the ICE Week of Action is on — direct actions, teach-ins, community defense, and a clear demand: ICE out of Minnesota, ICE out of existence. Full schedule + calls to action: melttheicemn.com

🧵 THREAD: 🚨The Prairieland Case is a five-alarm fire for the right to protest in America🚨 If you care about your neighbors being terrorized by ICE — and about your own freedom to dissent — you need to understand what's happening in Texas right now. /1

A filter blockade doesn't take much! Over the last few days we have seen neighborhoods throughout Minneapolis adapting, learning, and building to protect their communities from ICE. Here are some tips submitted by folks on the ground on setting up your own filter blockade!

NEW: since last year, a pair of "highly trained" feds have been involved in an array of incidents attacking crowds with chemical weapons. We used public records and open source analysis to identify Edgar Vazquez and Michael Sveum, alongside some other members of their tactical team. Read more:

"What would it take to begin coming together across the entire Twin Cities, establishing filter blockades to secure community control over zones or neighborhoods?"

A separate "block party" style blockade has popped up in a different part of town from the filter blockade at 34th and Cedar. People dancing, kids playing soccer, having fun while defending the neighborhood against ICE.

It would be amazing to see this spread everywhere. We need to make it so ICE can't pass through our neighborhoods.

Twin Cities rapid responders have set up a "filter blockade" at 34th and Cedar and are calling for volunteers and donations. This is a new tactic developing over the last week: community is allowed to pass, but ICE agents are stopped/slowed before they can terrorize our neighbors.

simple methods, plain words

Minneapolis right now— At 35th and Park, a crowd has gathered after a car crash involving the feds. Agents just launched tear gas and pepper balls at people.

Dude loves to tread on people

Hundreds of protestors are on the march from the ICE office in downtown Atlanta to the Georgia State Capitol building. They are calling anti-Trump slogans after ICE officers killed a woman in Minneapolis on Wednesday and shot two more in Portland on Thursday.

As Minnesota Governor Tim Walz activates the National Guard, thousands are marching through South Minneapolis demanding “ICE out” a day after an observer was fatally shot in her car by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent Jonathan Ross.

Border Patrol has shot two people in Oregon close to Portland. The shooting occurred near East Burnside and 141st Avenue. The two who were shot allegedly drove to this location for further help and are now en route or at hospital. Their condition is unknown.

ICE cannot protect you, but they can kill you. RIP Renee Good.

I spoke to a Venezuelan woman who was arrested in this raid and later released with her 4yo son. She said agents broke down their door, pointed guns at them and made sexualized remarks about Venezuelan women. When she returned to her apartment it was boarded up and all her possessions were gone.
