"Imagine people in the 80's finding out we were run by..."

Dude, one of the most popular songs from the 80's had a music video that portrayed Ronald Reagan as a senile dipshit who accidentally nukes the planet. And this was for a song by PHIL COLLINS.

I don't feel despair right now because literally THOUSANDS of my neighbors are doing things every day - RIGHT FUCKING NOW - to push back against fascism and help each other in critical, deeply effective ways on a local level.

Find your organizing home and get to work, friends. It feels good.

Several of the 13 “worst of the worst” criminals that the Department of Homeland Security said were arrested in Minnesota through its immigration enforcement operation were actually handed over to ICE by state prisons before Operation Metro Surge began.

Walz: "What's happening in MN defies belief. News reports simply don't do justice to the level of chaos & disruption & trauma the federal govt is raining down... This long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. Instead, it's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of MN"

I know people on Bsky know this but I hope it filters out: The feds are OCCUPYING the Twin Cities. This is a blockade, a siege. They are shutting down economic and civic activity. They are conducting "papers please" stops. They are criminalizing being a bystander/witness.

You could be next.

NBC News spent more time on Kiefer Sutherland and Timothy Busfield than it did on the Senate blocking the War Powers resolution. The MSM is useless.

800 people at Whittier International Elementary right now to coordinate ICE resistance. EIGHT HUNDRED, at one little school.

Recall there are only 2,000 ICE agents in the entire metro. Puny!

This is Minneapolis:

Walk into my neighborhood ACE last night & see the signage on their door notifying fed agents that it’s private property and cannot be used for immigration enforcement. These signs are all over the city.

Walk in & the nearest shelf has goggles & whistles.

HAPPENING NOW: In federal court in MN, DOJ is struggling to articulate why a person following an ICE vehicle — so long as they are obeying traffic laws — can be stopped for "reasonable suspicion" of a crime.

Judge Menendez sharply questioning that contention.

This quote has been prominent in my mind. Who ordered ICE to operate w/masks? Who ordered them to violate the law? Who told them they'd never be accountable for their illegal acts, including murder?

I just figured out why ICE is covering their faces and trying to not answer any questions about legal authority or warrants…if their faces were not covered, we would probably see they were pardoned by Donald Trump as being part of the insurrection of January 6. We need to legally confirm this.

You can draw a line between this event in August and the shooting in Minneapolis. In one, an agent reacted to bystanders by declaring “Liberals already ruined [the country].” Last week, we heard the attack on Renee Good punctuated by the words “Fucking bitch.” Showing grievance in both cases.
While masked agents were violently attacking a delivery worker this morning, bystanders repeatedly asked to see their badge numbers but they refused.

Bystander: You guys are ruining this country, you know that, right?

Agent: Liberals already ruined it.
