Today I saw ICE gas little white kids in the streets of Portland with chemical weapons. Imagine what they're doing to brown and black kids in the detention camps

Lawyers can't reach clients in ICE detention. I've heard it anecdotally, but scale of issue is horrifying.

Bloomberg Law is a legal trade pub so many may miss this. Screenshot from their CA newsletter summarizes "bleak" situation for justice and rule of law.

news.bloomberglaw.com/litigation/l...
What we found is bleak. Attorneys told us they’re struggling to get information in to or out of ICE and Customs and Border Protection facilities, which are holding nearly 69,000 people this month. And detainees often are forced to choose between remaining in crowded, squalid conditions or leaving the country immediately. Judges in New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles have ordered the government to facilitate attorney-client communications at Homeland Security buildings. But attorneys say that doesn’t always happen. Even if detainees get the option, some worry they’ll be punished if they take it.

Twin Cities rapid responders have set up a "filter blockade" at 34th and Cedar and are calling for volunteers and donations. This is a new tactic developing over the last week: community is allowed to pass, but ICE agents are stopped/slowed before they can terrorize our neighbors.

Nonsense, this. The idea that kicking Blackstone et al out of SFH rentals may "backfire" by choking investment in new construction presupposes they have any interest in increasing supply. They don't! Like, none. The opposite, in fact.

Curbing institutional ownership of single-family homes does not tackle the affordability crisis and could make things worse

This should piss everyone off, and our tax dollars paid for this.

A massive building purchased by ICE for $70 million in Arizona to “warehouse” immigrants.

Calling this “housing” is a lie. This is storage. This is treating human beings like inventory.

I get tired of saying it, but I’ll say it again: the nature of oppression in America is that they workshop it first on Black, Latino, Asian & Native people.

But it is always, in the end, coming for everyone.

The arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort are a test for every MSM member with a platform. If you are not voicing your outrage at this blatant violation of the First Amendment, you are utterly discredited as a journalist.

At some point, academics are going to need to take responsibility for the ways their research has influenced the most despicable ways society responds to "crime". Like, broken windows policing, the more and better police training academic crowd continues to harm without shame.

SUPPORT NEEDED FOR A NORTHSIDE LATINE EDUCATOR IMPACTED BY ICE At this time, being without a car in Mpls is impossible. in emergencies, I relied on my roommate's car, but it recently broke down, leaving me even more vulnerable. Bus stops and ride shares have been targets for ICE, leaving few options. Having access to my family, work, and doctors is crucial. I am hoping to buy a cheap but reliable used car as soon as possible, and am requesting support to do so. $ 6000 GOAL Venmo: @BRLTNEY Cashapp: $BRLT Paypal: @BRLTNEY Zelle: DM Other ways to support Gas and car service cards, or mechanic/general car support

In December, the Canadian government gave $1 million to Ottawa's JSI Telecom to commercialize AI-driven data analytics.

JSI, a wiretaps and investigation support firm, had a banner year in U.S. government sales in 2025, including a big new contract with ICE.

We need an EVICTION MORATORIUM NOW.

Sadly, Mayor Frey refused to sign the resolution calling on the Governor to enact this moratorium.
