THIS IS AN EMERGENCY.
Floored by this story. A man wrote a pollite email to a federal prosecutor objecting to the deportation of an Afghan seeking asylum. DHS responded with an administrative warrant to get the man's info from Google, then visited his home to intimidate him.

If I had a nickel for every time an ICE employee was arrested in a Bloomington, Minnesota underage sex trafficking sting, I’d have ten cents.

Not a lot, but weird that it happened twice!

Police in Bloomington, MN just announced that one of the guys they arrested in an underage sex trafficking sting was a **background checker for ICE agents.**

He had a high security clearance in the Trump administration... and he was caught trying to abuse children. Sickening.

These are things every employer with workers in Minnesota can do. If you are a company with employees there, I am happy to help you figure out how to enable these accommodations, and would gladly work (for free) with your legal, HR, compliance and other teams as needed to solve any objections.
If it’s helpful; I am providing my employees with:
1. Clear workplace policies and org messaging
2. Increased individual safety and security support.
3. Additional flexibility generally.
4. An intentional (paid) day each week for rest and community support work.
5. Encouraging individual check-ins.

Fight for Minnesota.

So, this won't spread and you'll be fighting for
your OWN community.

Minnesota is America.
Minnesota IS OUR Community.
When people are afraid to go to work, afraid to shop, or afraid to gather in their community, it hurts families, neighborhoods, and our entire economy.

If you can, show up for a small business and let’s continue to show the nation what it means to respond with care and decency.

Columbia will never be free of this stain.
When Texas lawmakers tried to visit 33-year-old “political prisoner” Leqaa Kordia at an ICE facility, she’d already lost 50 pounds and was running a high fever.

By Friday, she was hospitalized. But her family still has not been able to locate her.

Figured. We are beyond normal human levels of work. We should work seasonally, adjusting our times with the sun, holidays, and family events with our annual pay. It's ridiculous how they just keep trying to squeeze blood from a stone.

When I got the contract to write a history of concentration camps in 2014, I hoped to keep the US from ending up here. That didn't work out! But now it's critical to understand how much is already in process and the enormity of what's coming. The sooner we act to stop it, the more people we'll save.

The emails in my inbox emphasize: nothing, absolutely nothing, has changed. All eyes should still be on Minnesota.
Notice how the popular media narrative has moved on, while people on the ground in Minneapolis are still struggling and crying out that things are as bad as ever. This is how fascist regimes operate — overreach, recalibration, normalization. Get louder, not quieter.

I’m seeing more and more Minneapolis/Minnesota people naming that they are burned out and I just hope people allow themselves to change their pacing from sprint to marathon or better yet, a relay.

Slow down if the alternative is you crashing out and not being able to do anything.
