“immigrant communities attacked by the federal government will lose their homes” if mayor frey vetoes the bill to prevent evictions, says osman. “we have been attacked. a lot of immigrants were not able to go to work, even US citizens. vetoing this means you are not standing with the immigrants.”

Minnesota immigrant families are coming out of hiding from ICE, but the damage is done: jobs lost, savings gone, loved ones deported. Recovery will take time. My neighbor group is still providing mutual aid to 44 households. Can you help? Venmo: @kristina-halvorson Paypal: kristinahalvorson

This was just mentioned, first I had heard about it. 110 songs from Minnesota artists, and money raised goes to mutual aid efforts. It's bandcamp Friday and your dollars will go even further today!

“I have usernames older than you.”. Holy shit

Our little standwithminnesota.com team staved off multiple evictions today. I’m so proud of us. And the stories are so heartbreaking, and there’s still so much need. If you can help, I’ll get it directly where it needs to go. V: @Ian-Coldwater CA: $iancoldwater PP: @coldwater We keep us safe 💛

I resemble this remark

Sign up to pay a rent directly or send funds to my Venmo so our team can pay more rents. 💜🌻💜

I went through and added up the total paid rents through our adopt-a-rent program, and it is 329 families for $463,217. All peer-to-peer, no fundraising. Just neighbors helping each other out. If you want to adopt a family, and can afford to give $500 or more, signal me at asiniiwiikwe.72

Yesterday, the federal government filed sworn statements in our case Hussen v. Noem. The statements reveal the number of Operation Metro Surge (OMS) agents currently deployed in Minnesota and the number of OMS agents projected to be deployed in our state into March.

Ashley Fairbanks @ziibiing.com launched Stand With Minnesota standwithminnesota.com, a mutual aid repository supporting residents under ICE's siege, in early Jan. in the weeks since, it's facilitated covering people's rents and flown folks detained back home from Texas. she can help you do it, too.

This is a terrific article full of useful information and actionable ideas for literally anyone, anywhere who cares about their community.

Masterful Troll, TCM.

Families who have been in hiding from ICE will be recovering for MONTHS. Don't stop giving. Don't look away.

Does anyone have a hard time telling people what life was like during the last 2+ months without sounding like you're going crazy.

Thousands of Americans who receive GoFundMe donations or Venmo transfers after a medical crisis got hit with tax forms treating gifts as income. The IRS rules haven't caught up with the explosion in peer-to-peer giving, according to researchers who study crowdfunding. buff.ly/zhtybRf

ICE activity continues to interrupt daily life for students, staff and families, despite the announced end of the two-month surge of federal immigration agents. Students attend school remotely, staff monitor arrival and dismissal, and leaders wonder when they can resume normal school operations.

A former ICE instructor is expected to testify that new agents are trained to run roughshod over constitutional rights, including the right against a home invasion, and that the federal agency is “broken."

"In Chicago, of 92 people arrested for assaulting or impeding officers last fall, 74 cases have resulted in no charges; in 13 cases, charges were filed and dismissed; and five charged cases were still pending. . . there have been no convictions. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

ICE is still hitting hard in suburbs and outlying areas, so we’re offering help where needed. And there’s still so much rent and mutual aid to be paid for across Minnesota - please donate as you are able. www.standwithminnesota.com

Incredible opinion. It holds that the common ICE tactic of jumping out of an unidentified rental vehicle and seizing suspected noncitizens while masked violates the Fourth Amendment because the *manner* of the seizure is incompatible with a free society governed by the rule of law.

Thank you @racketmn.com for publishing this piece written by a member of one of the families we’ve been supporting. I’m very grateful for your help getting her story and perspective out there. racketmn.com/because-of-i...

Today we are launching a new intitative of Stand With Minnesota—KeepMNHoused.com, a rent-relief campaign backed with a $1.5 matching fund from the Wilson Foundation. Thousands of MN families are at risk of eviction because of the ICE occupation’s lasting impacts. We can keep them housed.

Minnesota residents and lawmakers say the promised drawdown has not materialized, and they are seeing ICE use more covert tactics to continue operations across Twin Cities suburbs. By @ncsscibelli.bsky.social

I’m sick of politics and work posting. Henceforth this account will be 100% about my gut microbiome.

2026 basically

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.

Local advocacy groups called Wednesday for state lawmakers to approve an eviction moratorium and relief payments for people unable to work during the federal immigration operation in Minnesota.

Two days after the deadly sea collision, ~1,000 people demonstrated in central Athens, chanting slogans such as “Athens – Minnesota we fight together, against the system that murders us,” “open borders for refugees,” and “we live together, we work together with the migrants, fight the nazis.”

Former President Barack Obama criticized ICE agents’ conduct in Minnesota as dangerous, saying “the rogue behavior” is akin to what “we’ve seen in authoritarian countries” and “in dictatorships.”

😭😭😭 a community member just handed this off to a patroller in our neighborhood

Rep. Angie Craig: "The attacks on Black and brown people in Minnesota have been egregious. At the end of the day, what they wanted out of Minnesota was for us to riot. I think this will go down in American history as one of the greatest examples of peaceful resistance from an entire community."

This is Minnesota. DON’T LOOK AWAY.

We are over $5500! Only $2000 to get this asylum seeker’s legal fees covered. Please help us raise this last part to keep them safe!

Great cause, if u are available, participate in the Hells Kitchen benefit as well for Mercado Central tomorrow from 9am-4 pm in DT Minneapolis See you there!

It’s day 76 of the ICE occupation of MSP. ICE is still here - we still have vastly more agents on the ground than we did in late November. And those agents are still kidnapping our neighbors and terrorizing neighborhoods. Stay vigilant, and let’s pay rent for March 1 for everyone who needs it.

So curious about these "agreements we have with local and state law enforcement" ... weirdly, I bet we will never hear what they are. Nor will we see local or state law enforcement on the scene. Ever.

A few days ago, one of our drivers was on her way to deliver groceries. ICE agents came roaring up next to her car, hopped out, and pointed a phone at her. Luckily she was able to drive away before they got too close. She completed the delivery the next day. minnesotareformer.com/2026/01/13/i...

I just received this text from one of our neighbors in hiding ... "In this country, the good people outnumber the bad."

Kristina is family. Trust that if she is asking it’s both needed AND going to where it should go.

I helped mobilize a group of neighbors to provide direct aid to nearly 50 families who are in hiding from ICE. These folks deserve fresh, familiar foods. So we're purchasing groceries direct from neighborhood Latino markets whenever we can. Venmo @kristina-halvorson to help, and please repost.

Earlier this week, a photo of a woman in a bathrobe filming ICE operations in St. Paul, Minnesota, went a little viral. That person was @mprnews.org reporter Sam Stroozas, who left her house without changing out of a sense of duty and urgency. The network leaned into it. More:

“These operations are not what we were told they were going to be,” said Stenvik. “We were told that perhaps an ICE agent would show up to our school with a signed judicial warrant, and we were trained on what to do when that happened. That's not happening at all.” www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

Already seeing people not from around here saying "Minnesota won" and I just— It's not over yet. We don't know if they'll actually withdraw. And the damage is overwhelming. We need a lot of fucking help here. And there are still people in concentration camps. Abolish ICE, shut down DHS, prosecute.

Someone create a photo gallery of midwesterners in pajamas and robes telling the paramilitary troops to eat shit

Our small businesses are on the brink of collapse. Doors are closed, commercial eviction notices are being handed out, and the cultural vitality of our community is at stake. 1/ kstp.com/kstp-news/to...

Ah, a rare free weeknight evening, time to go buy groceries for a family in hiding.
