This episode has been a nightmare for my city and state, but I hope people realize it’s also a profound defeat and political catastrophe for Trump and DHS, who are slinking away having accomplished nothing. Minneapolis simply wouldn’t bend to them and they lost
Homan in Minnesota: "I have proposed, and President Trump has concurred, that this surge operation conclude. A significant drawdown has already been underway this week and will continue."

1. This could just be another lie.
2. It will also just move the problem to some other poor city.
But if this is real, the next place needs to take the lesson from the Twin Cities. Active protest works.

I hope it's not offending to say that one of the coolest and most endearing aspects of the winter olympics is that it's weird af.
Final luge race of the Olympics comes up at 12:30 PM ET with the always exciting Team Relay!
Sliders will have a reaction start the moment the paddle is hit by the previous slider, so not only do you have to have a good slide, you've got to do that too.
Here's what that looks like!

This is the second account - the first being in Chicago - of DHS agents mass detaining people and then *sorting them by race*.
More than 400 people, including hundreds of citizens, were “sorted” at gun point into racial and ethnic groups by 200 ICE agents who fired flash-bang grenades into cars with people inside, pointed guns at children & demanded their zip tied parents not comfort them. apple.news/Ausdx6kWtT0e...

If my followers have been inspired by the fierce resistance the Twin Cities has put up to ICE, you should make it a point to take a trip here (April through October 😬), enjoy the wonderful things MN has to offer and support our small businesses. It continues to be a really tough time for them.

This is a long thread but you should read it.
In related news, judges *must* start holding AUSAs in contempt (and then locking them up) if we want this to stop without more bloodshed.

People like to make fun of two man luge by suggesting three man luge, but the real evolution should be a "Name that Tune" style contest where teams wager how many men can successfully luge at once.

One of every thousand American residents has been taken into custody by ICE in the last year.
A stunning detail the ICE chief shared in this hearing that was supposed to be a brag, except it isn't: ICE has arrested 379,000 people between Jan. 2025-Jan. 2026 -- but only 8,700 were suspected gang members or known suspected terrorists.
