A retired Minneapolis couple who had guns pointed at them by ICE in a church parking lot.
"They were obviously not trained at all. I've known many police officers in my life. These people were right off the streets."
"They had the professional demeanor of criminals."

Last week on the trail, I found one of my favorite quiet miracles.
These are Pipevine flowers — easy to miss, blooming before the leaves arrive, long before most things wake up.
They’re part of a remarkable relationship that eventually gives rise to the Pipevine Swallowtail butterfly.

The City of Philadelphia has introduced legislation to limited ICE in the city. The Federal Agents can not be masked, must have ID visible, must have arrested warrants signed by federal judges. They can't attack people. If they can't do this, they will be arrested.

In 2024 32 people died at the hands of ICE/BP. The highest number since 2004.
The rate was 1 person every 11.5 days.
So far in 2025 the rate is one death every 3.5 days.
If that rate continues all year 105 people will die.

Eight people have died in dealings with ICE so far in 2026. These are their stories
The high-profile killings of Minneapolis residents Alex Pretti and Renee Nicole Good are only two among many

just a reminder: if fire hydrants near where you live are buried in snow after this week’s storms, it’s a mitzvah (and a gooooood workout!) to dig out around that hydrant so fire crews can get to it faster if need be.

Something important to understand about ICE thugs in the Twin Cities is that they're harassing innocent kids and parents at bus stops and schools every single day. Even after the Pretti shooting. It's terrorism.

Abolish ICE to protect the public.
One armed goon loses his shit at an observer who's backing up, and then several more armed goons tackle the observer to the ground, and then even more armed goons form a protective shield around the armed goons handcuffing the observer for hurting an armed goon's feelings.

#ElisaSlotkin #HaleyStevens #GaryPeters Please go to Minneapolis and witness the horrors of ICE directly, before ICE scales up and attacks parts of Michigan at the same level. My city has many immigrants and I don't want them or any of my neighbors going through what the people of MN have been.

What a contrast to the ICE thugs.
Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara: "People have had enough. This is the third shooting in less than 3 weeks. The MPD went the entire year last year recovering about 900 guns from the street, arresting hundreds of violent offenders, and we didn't shoot anyone ... this is not sustainable."

Whistleblowers just shared a memo showing DHS instructing ICE to force their way into peoples' houses without a proper warrant. Why is this not on all the networks right now? This is a criminal conspiracy to violate rights under color of law.
