I don't think people understand how violent ICE has been against US citizens. They are just beating the shit out of people for sport now.

FUN FACT: Even if Trump pardons his entire administration and ICE goons, they can still be charged criminally by individual states.

NEXT FRIDAY: Minnesotans are joining together for a statewide day of non-violent moral action and reflection.

That means no work, no school, and no shopping — only community, conscience, and collective action.

There will also be a peaceful march and rally in downtown Minneapolis: iceoutnowmn.com

Weekly tradition time: finding some joy no matter how small, no matter how hard.

Tell me something good.

What good thing happened in your life this week?

Found your calling or found a dollar in the dryer, both work. Just something good.

1/2 On a Zoom call with experts on Greenland - they essentially agree that US will focus on offering economic opportunities to Greenland as an independent state as a step to US allegiance until late Spring - if this doesn't work, military operation would proceed.

A nurse nearly blinded by a tear gas canister. Protesters struggling to breathe.

Under Trump 2.0, federal agents have routinely countered protesters using "less lethal" weapons in ways that some experts say might be criminal.

President Trump’s attempts to torpedo offshore wind farms suffered a second blow this week when a federal judge ruled on Thursday that construction for the $5 billion Empire Wind project off Long Island could resume.
Empire Wind Project Can Resume Construction, Judge Rules
A federal judge said the Empire Wind project off Long Island would suffer “irreparable harm” if the Trump administration continued to hold up work.

This is a very smart point. And it is echoed by what I have been told about how things happened this time around in Portland as well in the aftermath of 2020.
One thing that people don't understand is that the community base opposing ICE is extremely committed to avoiding anything that could trigger rioting, I think largely because of the 2020 experience. Trump thinks he can redo 2020 but shoot the protesters this time, but Minneapolis isn't the same.
Ironically a lot of the base of Minnesota's activitists' response was laid as a result of the riots following Chauvin's murder of George Floyd. That's part of why I feel like this administration doesn't understand who they're messing with. The Twin Cities got organized in 2020 and remains so.

Pritzker: The Insurrection Act is designed for circumstances where your rights can’t be protected by local authorities

This is exactly the opposite.

Your civil rights are being infringed upon by CBP and ICE, and then they want to call in troops claiming that they’re protecting CBP and ICE.
