I beg you, if ICE sends a surge to your city, do not wait even a day to join local orgs and patrols. Minneapolis can tell you what to do to save your neighbors. Eventually the local horrors will compel even the most timid to action, but by then it is too late. Do not wait and see. Act fast.

Good morning, Minnesota. How the fuck am I supposed to work today?

tomorrow, StandWithMinnesota.com will hit a million site visits and over 650,000 unique visitors. i made it 10 days ago with $600 from you guys for hosting and cloudflare. thank you. thank you.

"ICE will leave Minnesota if you hand over your voter rolls" tells you everything you need to know. This was never about immigration or fraud. It was always about rigging elections.

Assholes can't recognize community kindness. I'm in neighborhood groups. We mobilized quickly because we fuckin care about our neighbors. Cartoon villain level ignorance.

im gonna suggest all you nerds following me who got cons coming up consider dropping your Hilton reservations tomorrow, and telling them why when you cancel. If they want to fash money so bad, then they must not need ours.

Protesters chanting "We're not cold, we're not afraid, Minne[apolis/sota] taught us to be brave" in Boston tonight outside Government Center station.

I talked to one of my Representatives on the phone about my fear and anger over the way ICE is conducting operations in my community. "The cavalry isn't coming," they said. "We have to save ourselves. And each other." It was disconcerting to hear, but it is the reality we know is true.

Oh she’s EXTORTING US.

"They say they're coming to save us from some evil? They're talking about our neighbors who take care of us ... Alex was murdered while he was helping. Mr Rogers said look for the helpers, & right now the helpers have a target on our forehead ... Mr Rogers would be here right now too, so I'm here."

I'm so tired. My acts of resistance were taking my kids to the library (Soli asked where everyone was and I had to tell her many can't come anymore), give away some of my extra hand warmers/scarf to an unhoused person, and buying from a local immigrant run business... But I'm tired. Angry and tired.

Activate the national guard or you're absolutely complicit in this murder this morning, @governorwalz.mn.gov. They're killing us. #ICEout BREAKING: Federal agent shoots man in south Minneapolis - Bring Me The News share.google/AdTi3ZuP85E6...

Three pairs of socks. Three pairs of pants (outer later being snow pants). A shirt, a sweater, a hoodie, & a winter jacket. A ski mask, my hoodie over that, & a winter (Vikings) hat on top. A scarf. Two hand warmers & two pairs of gloves. Winter boots. A scarf. A friend for safety. ICE OUT.

So this is what I did today!

ICE. OUT. #MN

Tomorrow’s front page of the Minnesota Star Tribune: Jan. 23, 2026

Second city council meeting I've gone to for this city was tonight. It's -19°F for the raw temp and -40°F for the wind chill but by God my city showed up again for this special meeting to address anti-ICE actions our city needs to take. My takeaway: local gov needs to do more to protect the people.

National media should really be covering the fact thay every major school, museum, and arts institution in the Twin Cities, and hundreds of local businesses are closed tomorrow to protest federal occupation. Nothing like this at this scale has happened anywhere in America anytime in living memory.

In addition to the better-known Hmong, St. Paul is home to the largest Karen refugee community in the US. Trump terminated their TPS in Nov. Many could be deported to Burma (Myanmar), where they're subject to ethnic cleansing by a military dictatorship. Including kids who have never lived there.

Perhaps the weirdest discord message I've had to type to a guild leader for a video game... #SWGoH

"Research would tell us that most ICE agents entered into these jobs in part because they want approval, and they want to affirm their masculinity in public," said sociologist Nicole Bedera. "An ICE watch works by surrounding these people ... with disapproval."

Get outside today and test your winter gear for tomorrow, people.

Minneapolis is MinnMax's home and it's being torn apart by ICE agents with no regard for our rights. ICE is harassing/abducting people of color on a daily basis. Please donate to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota to help provide free legal representation to those in need. bit.ly/minnmaxgives

there are a bunch of big names on this list, including multiple beard award winners, and some places i never would have guessed in a hundred years (the malt shop?!) and i'm genuinely floored and delighted to see so many participants bringmethenews.com/minnesota-li...

It's getting harder and harder to focus on "work" while seeing ICE sightings all around my city... Not driving to the office for the rest of the week (taking Friday off for the general strike).

Today is the warmest day for the next several days. Run your errands, fill up with gas, blow up your bike tires, get your groceries…. So that on Friday, you Buy Nothing.

Hey folks! I put the last of our Beatdown City Lisa Santiago shirts, as seen in No More Heroes Travis Strikes Again, on sale for 20% off on our site! beatdowncity.myshopify.com These inks POP in person (neon ink!) Looking to ship these out in the next week or so!

PSA to journalists coming to MSP to cover the ongoing ICE surge: Please don’t roll up on our school patrol members randomly asking for info! 🤦🏽‍♀️ We keep getting reports of this and it freaks us out. YOU ARE DRIVING THE SAME RENTAL CARS AS ICE. Get it??

Sketching out floor trims. #art

No point in asking how any of this shit is legal anymore. This administration doesn't care. Never did.

I am overwhelmed & exhausted by the amount of press we've gotten over this but also determined to continue speaking loudly against Trump's reign of cruelty & retribution. #AbolishICE

You cannot overstate how startling it is to see a politician just say the thing with clarity and poise. No fearful hemming. No overwrought qualifying down til it’s meaningless. No lingering sense that there is a loyalty to a donor class or an ideology of stasis that they’d never admit to.

We cannot normalize this federal occupation of Minneapolis. It is not normal to watch people abducted in front of our eyes—dragged from car windows, pulled from their homes, and children left without parents. This is not about immigration. It’s about unchecked cruelty.

My Easter Egger blesses me with a beautiful blue egg each day, even in January.

school being canceled because the president sent armed thugs to harass and imprison the populace for voting against him should be the biggest domestic scandal in american history

if you want to know how you can help a real life person from Minneapolis you can directly impact Felix’s life here. My little sister made this. gofund.me/0af579585

A church had their service interrupted by protestors cuz one of their pastors works for ICE. That Sunday my mom quietly told me many of the members at her immigrant church didn't show up due to fear. One of the pastors gave a PSA on their rights. Focusing on the former is a privilege I don't have.

It's super cold this week and while that might make ICE miserable, it endangers the lives of our homeless neighbors. MIWRC is keeping people safe with the warming center, but needs funds desperately www.miwrc.org/donate

This is Minneapolis: There are retirees, child-free 20-somethings, and parents standing outside the local elementary schools in -10°F (-23°C) to keep watch and make sure there aren't any abductions by the federal government at school drop off & pick up.

This is the "silence" MLK Jr. was talking about. SMDH

As Homeland Security’s siege on Minneapolis enters its third week, locals are volunteering for patrol shifts, protesting in the streets, and keeping one another up to date in group texts. Read more from @scottmeslow.bsky.social in Minneapolis:
