ICE just boxed in a car on my block, broke the driver's window, and kidnapped two people out of the car. They were observers who had been following ICE around South Mpls this morning. Fucking fascists.

"The aggressive posture of federal agents is eroding trust in local policing and diverting attention from the everyday work of community safety. It is making an already difficult job harder — and our city less safe."

they see the popularity of “Abolish ICE” that they were able to destroy around “Defund the Police” and they’re trying really hard to keep people from connecting the dots
i don't understand why so many people are so adamant that what ICE is doing is not the same as law enforcement. i disagree and i think a lot of the arguments ring very hollow, but more to the point: what's behind the desperate need to protect police legitimacy right now?

I have been told that this undercover ICE agent tried to get observers to scan a QR code “for his website”. The QR code did not resolve to a link.
DO NOT SCAN UNKNOWN QR CODES FROM STRANGERS.
This is a massive security risk! Bad things can happen to you if you do it!
Stay frosty, friends.

Every day some story breaks me some. Today it’s the guy who approached parents at a school patrol, told them he was with Indivisible, and asked about how the patrol system works. The parents gave vague answers, followed him back to his car — and of course it was ICE.

Sharing what CM Chavez put aptly— increased ICE activity in South Minneapolis, many reports today coming out of the 12th Ward. Please be safe and take care. It is legal to observe and document. Make sure you’re connected to your neighborhood networks.
Dear neighbor,
We are seeing an increase in immigration enforcement and federal agents across South Minneapolis. This includes the sighting of Bovino at 34th and Cedar. There’s definitely an uptick compared to the last few days. 1/

Border Commander Greg Bovino stands outside a South Minneapolis gas station this morning with BORTAC officers in what seemed like an effort to draw more and more people to the scene as other agents shoot high resolution video of the crowd yelling and blowing whistles.

Protect the vulnerable AND buy your neighborhood whistle friends a coffee
It's Day 50 of the ICE occupation of MSP.
Today at a presser, the head of the Border Patrol said "The groups are a bit better organized. They’ve got some excellent communications…and it makes it difficult to operate here at times.”
Keep making it difficult for them. Blow those whistles!

See it didn't matter when it was #Minneapolis & #StPaul, but now its the SUBURBS and is impacting the COPS! So NOW it is important you see. Imagine you were a US Senator & could actually DO SOMETHING about it!!! Just stop Amy, you words are worthless here.
Today I talked with police chiefs from across the metro area. This isn’t just happening in Mpls and St. Paul. The 3000 ICE agents are in the suburbs and across our state. The surge is disrupting the work of local law enforcement.

New— An American citizen boarding flight from Boston to Lisbon just now told me after showing boarding pass, every passenger stopped on jetway by two ICE agents demanding to take their photo. When passenger asked why, ICE threatened to detain them. If they said no photo, couldn't board/TBD detained.

they’ve created a barrier and ICE are barely guarding the gates now because HCSO are doing it for them. this frees up ICE
