ICE lies are the Spiderman meme wondering if any of them will hold up under scrutiny.
Minneapolis had three of these within 17 days, so you'll need to be more specific with your headline.

This too, is America.
Yesterday morning kids were sent running from their bus stop in panic because ICE showed up. This guy at today’s ICE Out of Lindenwold protest is a must watch 😭. @maddow.bsky.social

the same CEOs who put out a nothing statement instead of actually standing up to ICE in any meaningful way? they don’t get to take a victory lap herev
We don’t need a celebration we need to abolish ICE and get justice for those murdered and for those whose rights have been violated and return our neighbors. Reminder the Roman Colosseum was a propaganda machine that enforced hierarchy and was a distraction from living standards. Stay focused MPLS.

Is everyone home? Are our people safe? Have those responsible for harm been held accountable?

How you gonna throw a party when the answers to the above stay no?

I cannot stand this mayor

NEW: Minnesota United CSO Khaled El-Ahmad on adding James Rodriguez to “evolve the culture,” a late-winter surprise in a “mentally tough” moment amidst Metro Surge.

“This is the right place for him because of the community, how we stand up for each other.”

Minnesotans stand together 👏

The city’s women’s soccer team is speaking out against fear and violence facing immigrant neighbors — and taking action. For every 2026 season ticket sold, @mnaurorafc.bsky.social will donate to the Immigrant Law Center of MN, plus 15% of select merch sales.

Still around 100 community reports of ICE activity around the Twin Cities today, the most of any state by far.

In case you’re wondering why so many of us aren’t quite taking Homan’s presser today at face value.

One effect of the last two months I hope becomes permanent is that white Minnesotans — who blithely accept that Somali, Hmong, Latinx, and other immigrant communities share this space, but don't really engage with them — start to really see how rich this community can be when everyone is valued.

UPDATE: He was just released. This shows that just indiscriminately took someone because they were Latino. Their illegal tactics continue so we still need neighbors to patrol, observe, and support our immigrant community.
Someone was abducted at 10 AM by ICE on Central Ave. Their coworker says they’ve lived here for over 20 years, are documented, and have 3 kids who were born here.

Don’t be fooled by headlines when they’ve been lying to us the whole time. We still need you out patrolling until every agent is gone.

still looking for those photos of amy klobuchar on the streets standing up to ICE like we saw from jason chavez and elliott payne and doron clark, to name just a handful of electeds who are out here protecting people
Minnesotans stood together, stared down ICE, and never blinked.

simply they will shift to where there is less resistance from the people, therefore the power always lies with the people. Do not let politicians take your power away and disperse you at their will.

Ending this operation is not enough.

We need justice and accountability. That starts with independent investigations into the murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, economic restitution for businesses impacted, abolishing ICE, and the impeachment of Kristi Noem.

A few ways we will know ICE is actually gone:

• Commuters no longer report regular verified ICE sightings
• Abduction reports dry up
• Hotel and car rentals end
• Non-ICE federal employees are brought back to the Whipple

I’ll believe it when I see it. Everything they’ve said about this illegal occupation has been built on a lies.

We need accountability for our neighbors and for this whole corrupt department to be dismantled.

Stay out there, keep your connection to one another, and only believe your eyes.

Furreal. Deeply appreciate people who haven't stopped trying to show us a better way.
Just a big hug to all the anarchists in the Twin Cities who get dismissed all the time but knew exactly what to do when shit went down here.

Minnesotans are traumatized, businesses have been decimated, entire communities have been in hiding and the educational and emotional cost to our children is immeasurable. There will be so much relief after these violent goons leave our streets but it will take a long time to rebuild.

He literally says in this clip that ICE will keep in Minnesota “quick reaction forces” — a military term — to go after “agitators.” Remember that those on the ground in MPLS have spent more than a week trying to tell everyone that Trump’s prior “deescalation” was a ruse and ICE is still operational
Homan: "Operation Metro Surge is ending. In the next week, we're going to deploy the officers here on detail back to their home stations or to other areas of the country where they're needed."

The premise underlying this question is false - in no functional, healthy democracy should exercising one's free speech rights in front of the federal government put them in harm's way.
RON JOHNSON: Did you ever encourage people to go out there and exercise their First Amendment rights?

KEITH ELLISON: I freely admit being in favor of the First Amendment
