They beat a blind refugee who speaks no English for failing to obey police commands he could not understand. Then instead of apologizing, they charged him with possession of a “weapon”—HIS WALKING STICK. Then they dumped him miles from home without notifying anyone, after which he was found dead.

Please read this article to the end. Even before ICE got involved, this started because this *blind man who speaks no English and uses a curtain rod as a walking stick* got lost on a walk and some Karen called the police on him and they tasered and beat him bc he didn’t drop the rod. WTF

Even if temporary this cut to Medicaid will result in providers no longer accepting the insurance. People can’t run a business without knowing if, or when, and how much they’ll be paid.

It’s not just Medicaid funding they’re withholding to MN. It’s food assistance, child care assistance, social services, job training, safety testing, public health, disaster relief. SNAP. Free lunch for kids in school. They hate us for loving our neighbors, and are collectively punishing us for it.

Your activism will either include sex workers or it will be useless. We can't build a better future by leaving the best of us behind.

Aliya Rahman, woman who was dragged out of car by ICE in Minneapolis: "I've spent the last month learning the names of the tendons in my shoulder, because both of my shoulders are torn -- cartilage and tendons. But what I haven't learned is the names of the people who did this to me."

The ICE surge in Minnesota cost $280M to detain 4k people. Of those- only 30 were accused of violent crimes. $9 million per capture of the "worst of the worst". Renee Good and Alex Pretti were unavailable for comment….

so much of the discourse about depictions of trans women could be sidestepped if u ppl just considered us fucking women lol

This is what needs to happen. Cancel the World Cup. Cancel the Olympics. Cancel your US vacations. Refuse to support this regime and refuse to endanger lives.

Angie Craig: "They removed everyone from the ICE facility 30 minutes before we arrived — this is not the intent of the law. DHS is violating the law" Ilhan Omar: "What happened today is a blatant attempt to obstruct members of Congress from doing their oversight duties"

Remember when RFK Jr. unilaterally decided that COVID19 vaccines should no longer be recommended during pregnancy? Well, COVID19 increases the risk of preeclampsia. And it turns out that getting boosted, either before or during pregnancy, significantly reduces the risk of preeclampsia.

The level of anger normal Minnesota people have at their elected representatives is palpable. It's not about party, but the perceived failure of local/state electeds to do anything of substance to protect residents who pay their taxes and get left facing off alone against masked, armed men.

They're trying to make observing/filming ICE illegal. Then we must show up in greater numbers. BE UNGOVERNABLE.

Recovery will not happen overnight, but we will rebuild. We can all make an impact by continuing to shop local. We will help stabilize these businesses, protect jobs, and ensure Minnesota’s economy rebounds. www.startribune.com/please-come-...

BREAKING: The Department of Education has ended its directive that attempted to restrict diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts in schools nationwide. This is a victory for academic freedom and education equity.

The horror stories rolling in from Minnesota are just the tip of the iceberg. This 20-year-old, who's lawfully present in the country, was arrested for being Latino, then jailed in a filthy cell where he couldn't even sit down. 18 days of illegal detention. democracyforward.org/wp-content/u...

They're coming for adult care and they're explicit about it.

On Tuesday, the Minneapolis City Council will be voting on a resolution urging Congress to adopt the Abolish ICE Act and Melt ICE Act. lims.minneapolismn.gov/Download/RCA...

Two ICE-Gestapo killers have been placed on leave after lying under oath about a violent encounter they supposedly faced during their seige in Minneapolis. They face termination and criminal charges. Good, they aren’t agents, they are terrorists. They should all be sent to jail.

I'm old enough to remember when Republicans used to get big mad when social media companies censored users' posts. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/13/t...

lmao this has gotta be so widespread

Measles is a bellwether. Because it’s the most contagious vaccine-preventable disease, when vaccination rates drop, it’s the first to start spreading. Now we’ve got mumps rolling up. Expect more. This is just the beginning of RFK Jr.’s successful infectious disease reintroduction plan.

The default assumption should be that they’re lying

Walz: "The federal government needs to pay for what they broke here. There's going to be accountability on things that happened, but one of them is the incredible and immense cost borne by the people of this state. The federal government needs to be responsible."

Minnesota’s economy runs on the strength of our small businesses. I’m proposing $10 million in direct relief to help businesses impacted by Operation Metro Surge stabilize, protect jobs, and get back on solid footing.

The Overton Window keeps moving the more we learn. Imprison ICE is the moderate snowplow name.

I’d campaign my ass off for her. I don’t agree with every choice she’s made in every circumstance. But just that she comes from a working class background and has not let four terms in Congress swing her to the middle says a lot about her integrity. She’s also a great communicator.

for folks out of town - Central Ave runs north through Northeast Mpls to Columbia Heights to Fridley to Blaine. Dense and then less dense suburbs with lots of working class families (Blaine also has some mcmansion complexes and even the occasional farm). Occupation spreading out.

Amazon made a choice to partner with Flock and feed data to ICE. They chose to allow their popular ring cameras to spy on people’s neighbours for the purpose of sending them to camps. The damage is done. Don’t buy a Ring camera and don’t support Amazon. www.cnbc.com/amp/2026/02/...

We learned from Chicago and Portland. Yall learn from them plus Minnesota. All you fascists bound to lose.

It really is the behavior. Some get self selected out because of societal pressure in middle and high schools to not choose those fields, but of the ones who make it into a college engineering program, it’s the behavior of their male peers that cause them to leave. Same with the workforce.

People talking about terrible teachers and gender bias in STEM fields & I can remember when the anatomy teacher tried to keep a girl from going on a field trip to Chico State to view a cadaver. Her mom raised absolute hell & now that girl has a Ph.d in molecular biology and leads R&D.

Friends from Minneapolis reporting to me that things are at the point where folks are being hidden in other people's houses and we are in the "again" part of "never again" which the "never" was supposed to preclude

THEY ARE BUYING UP WAREHOUSES TO HOLD HUMAN BEINGS IN DETENTION INDEFINITELY. I feel crazy at how everyone is acting like this is normal. These are concentration camps being built right before our eyes. These buildings are not meant to house human beings. People will be caged like cattle and die.

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

When a sitting representative refers to the Super Bowl halftime show as “pornography,” people should use that to reflect on how they and other representatives are simultaneously working to ban, censor, and restrict “pornography” and what that actually means

The United States is purposefully blockading Cuba from accessing fuel that powers everything from grocery stores to hospitals. People will die. Children will die. What's being done to the people of Cuba is monstrous. The people in power were ok with it in Gaza and now they're doing it to Cuba.

My body completely turned on me tonight. Massive adrenaline surge and histamine dump at the same time with no discernible cause. Heart rate either Brady or tachy, can’t stop vomiting and covered in a burning itchy rash I hate the POTS/MCAS combo sometimes It’s impossible to feel safe in your body

In honor of The Olympics, I strongly believe Chuck should pass the torch. Now.

I remember being little and asking my mom why Surya always got scored so low and she very clearly explained to me it was racism and body prejudice. They wanted little frail white princesses and could not handle this powerful empress.

I keep being told it's the progressives who have to unite with the centrists in the DFL and that we're the problem, but we didn't fucking boo one of our most popular congressional reps in front of a bunch of other elected officials in the state! What the fuck.

We’re not in the clear. It’s still important to be cautious, careful, and vigilant. ICE vehicles were spotted across Minneapolis today. Two Latino neighbors were kidnapped by ICE on East Lake Street outside a laundromat. 1/

I’m tired of being told I’m a badass for doing things despite being in pain, or a wimp for needing medication, or that I have “legitimate” reasons to need it, unlike “fakers”. I am tired of people having an opinion on my pain other than “how can I help?”

Renee Good's widow shared this statement with us today. It's absolutely heart-wrenching. 💔

On a similar note, as Mamdani continues to notch W after W you’re going to start seeing opinion pieces about how this could never work in any city other than New York, etc., etc. Do not engage! It’s just entrenched power bullshit and that’s all! Don’t let them make that a conversation!

Before Keith Porter, Renee Nicole Good and Alex Pretti… ICE killed a father after he dropped his kids off at school. We didn’t hear much about it because he was undocumented. They said he was trying to flee & shot him in the back of the neck. Silverio Villegas-González. Don’t forget him.

ICE is still doing checkpoints in Minneapolis like we are an occupied territory. Life remains really hard here thanks to Trump's thugs.

The public made noise for Liam Ramos and it got him released from Dilley. Now we must make noise for 7 year old Diana Crespo. Her parents were taking her for emergency medical care when ICE grabbed them, and she’s rotting in the camp sick and exposed to measles. Get them out!

Swear to god, ICE could just announce they're leaving a city but not leave and the media will just stop covering that city completely even though ICE never left. It's what ICE and the media did with LA and they're doing it with Minneapolis too
