A heartbeat duet. Alaina Ferris and Lacy Rose use fetal dopplers to amplify their unborn baby's heartbeats and then improvise an echoed lullaby over that. It was raw and so beautiful. This was part of We Don't Need the Sea to Drown at National Sawdust/ Coco Karol and Sxip Shirey

Let them send their entire fucking goon squad! We will bend but not break. Let the rest of free America take a deep breath and recharge while we lead the resistance. When the crooked pedopotus burns the constitution, be prepared to follow us and be willing to sacrifice everything like we are. RESIST

telling the secret police they have immunity to harm & kill citizens really lays bare the hollowness of decades of right-wing GOP screeching about encroaching Big Government - it was never a problem they had with government per se, just that it wasn't being used to harm the people they wanted to

ICE is currently raiding an apartment complex near my home in Savage. Lots of children screaming. This is completely unnecessary. I'm certain these people being terrorized are hard working, law abiding individuals.

My brother's construction site was raided by ICE this
morning and 6 people were taken (they came after he left to a new site so he didn't get taken, but some of the crew did). MN companies need to do a better job at protecting their employees. They know ICE is present visibily in the Twin Cities so they need to not send their employees to work until ICE ain't roaming the streets!!

if you want to know what it is like in minneapolis, I don’t even have to scroll on facebook to find a horror story. it’s basically my whole feed.

everyone i know in minneapolis is seeing ICE take peopleβ€”at gas stations, taquerias, bus stops, schools. just snatching random people.

Just a reminder to my fellow Minnesotans living through this nightmare, Majority Whip, Tom Emmer, was all over MSM yesterday and today supporting the armed occupation of his own constituents and his state. This is not a man who deserves the Congressional seat he currently occupies. He needs to go.

Exactly this: the administration’s concentration camps should be a howling, daily outrage, a scandal of historic proportions.
