And to folks within the transportation world, this affects us and our work. Public transportation is the public realm. Operators, staffers, riders represent the full spectrum of Americans. Talk to folks working for Metro Transit in MN how this is impacting the transit system.

In October, ICE grabbed Maher Tarabishi.
He was a 24/7 caregiver for his disabled son Wael.
At the time of Maher’s detention, disability advocates warned that taking away Wael’s caregiver put his life at risk.
Wael died on Friday at age 30.
ICE caused his death.
They didn’t get to say goodbye.

Something that may not be registering outside Minnesota is this: everything—EVERYTHING— the administration says about what’s happening here is a lie.
Big or small, it doesn’t matter. They tell the world untruths, and we in Minnesota suffer the consequences.

Money corrupts.
There was also a funny moment earlier where former state Sen. Joe Nguyen opposed the Well WA Fund as Commerce Dept. head, and Rep. Scott pointed out Nguyen had sponsored a bill 6 years ago in #WALeg to create a progressive payroll tax just like this one, and asked him what had changed.

One thing I've learned from watching the amazing response in MN is that when ICE does flood Seattle, verify everything. Hysteria helps no one and unverified reports only distract from real activities.

I’ve started using the term “ethnic cleansing campaign” to describe the ICE occupation here in Minnesota. This is deliberate because the reality on the ground is that, at a given moment, any non-white person can be kidnapped by masked federal paramilitaries regardless of their constitutional rights.

An American city under siege by the American government cheered on by 1/3 of the country.
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.
