ICE was still riding around dangerously at 1 AM last night. That’s why we can’t rest until every single one of them is gone

If you were at work today and you got a phone call from your wife that France just blew up your kid's school, your lifelong opinion of France is probably not going to be anything other than "Death to France"

If you are younger than 83, you have never seen the US drop a single bomb as a formally declared act of war according to its constitution.

donald trump said in a video posted he expects there to be american casualties, which to me implies we’re doing boots on the ground endless occupation in iran

I hate these motherfuckers with every cell of my being.

Also, someone was abducted in my neighborhood this morning.

It’s time to pass Pause Evictions, Save Lives in Minneapolis. Currently, renters receive a 30-day notice prior to a landlord filing an eviction.

This ordinance would temporarily expand this timeline to 60 days through August 30, 2026.

The first vote is at Committee of the Whole on Tuesday. 1/

ICE took their papersβ€”and won’t give them back Immigrants are being released from detention without documents proving their status.

β€œAs far as I can tell, it’s the practice of ICE to throw everybody’s documents into a black box and then lose it.”

Immigrants in Minnesota have been released from detention centers without work permits, Social Security cards, licenses, and other documents that prove their status.

Mpls friends: After 2020β€”particularly George Floyd’s murder and the uprisingβ€”did your family, friends, and acquaintances in other states find you annoyingly angry, jaded, strident, jumpy, basically unfit for normal social interaction? Wait til they get a load of 2026 you! πŸ’–

β€˜I was shocked’: 3 Minnesotans describe unexpected ICE detentions Now back in Minnesota, three Somali immigrants who had been abiding by legal requirements describe their recent arrests and troubled detentions in Texas.

β€œI was confused about what the violation was, because I knew I hadn’t violated anything. I kept asking them what I violated, because I was worried they might have confused me with someone else, but they refused to tell me, and it turns out there was no violationβ€”they were just lying.”

Counterpoint: No.

ICE doesn’t need reform. Abolition and prosecution is the bare minimum.

β€œThat […] is terrifying. But if we mean what we say about solidarity, what choice is there? If every abducted child is our own, if every person they want to make disappear is someone Minneapolis cannot and will not live without, the decisions on how we must respond have already been made.”

So good

Worst of the worst? Most US immigrants targeted for deportation in 2025 had no criminal charges, documents reveal A Guardian analysis finds the vast majority of people who entered deportation proceedings for the first time from January to August last year had no criminal convictions

And of the small percentage (23%) who DID have β€œcriminal” charges, the vast majority were *traffic violations.* Just plain old ethnic cleansing

Opinion | What Exactly Is a β€˜Concentration Camp’?

β€œForty-six percent of Americans were on the record in a recent poll saying they supported abolishing ICE. Like if you can’t seize the public momentum for the reaction to this, then we need better politicians who can, because I think there is a tremendous desire to see something different.”

Yep we have chronic health conditions & medications too (at least two of us do). Even so, we had a serious conversation this morning about whether to keep paying for coverage. We will, we have to, but we are legit on the road to financial ruin
