Minneapolis and Saint Paul have basically mobilized into a war economy of mutual aid and non-violent defense. I’ve never seen anything like it, even during Covid. People who barely vote are guarding their schools from ICE and doing the shopping for neighbors in hiding.
This is so smart. I’m so impressed with all the different ways you’re helping your neighbors.

you probably shouldn't come to MN right now, but if you must, here's some advice I just gave a friend:

DO NOT FUCK AROUND WITH THESE TEMPS. any exposed flesh will get frostbite in minutes.

you have not felt cold like this before. you do not know what to expect, and your clothes are inadequate. 🧵
Hi. MN getting a lot of attention right now.

Do NOT underestimate weather’s potential to absolutely BREAK people here, especially new-to-towners.

When it snows hard, drops to way below zero, everything frozen, it can make you stop functioning. Horrify and immobilize you. Changes EVERYTHING.
As of late morning, snow was falling in the Red River Valley with northerly winds gusting to more than 40 mph. Weather stations were reporting near-zero visibility at times.

Incredibly emotional to hear my poem has been turned into a song of resistance and is being sung in Minneapolis right now. Please do not give up.

ICE came for our Fucking TOY STORE?
DHS employees entered our store this afternoon and served us a Notice of Inspection, demanding copies of I9 forms for each employee.

In 27 years as shopkeepers, we have never been subjected to this type of investigation.

ICE has kidnapped so many people from their cars that the city had to put out this statement. Let that sink in.
Vehicles that are abandoned due to an ICE detention and towed to the City's impound lot will be released to their owners or a representative at no cost.

ICE/CBP is following school busses now.

My husband (a school bus driver) was just in an urgent all-hands meeting about it this afternoon.

Same. I'm exhausted, but we need to fight. And help.
This is Minneapolis:

I am SO behind on *every* basic life chore: grocery shopping, cleaning, laundry, errands.

Today I'm doing laundry for a neighbor family, who has been too afraid to leave to go to the laundromat for 6 weeks.

Maybe after that I will have energy to do my own family's laundry.

“Lifeless… foam around his mouth. Nobody wants to see their kids like that.”

ICE attacked a family trying to LEAVE the besieged neighborhood and hospitalized a 6 month old baby that couldn’t breathe.

On some level, I get what she's trying to say.

ICE is here because Trump thought cranking the police brutality dial up to 11 would result in the fires, looting, and property destruction we saw in '20. What they didn't take into account is that the folks who started those fires now work for ICE.

For every ICE arrest that draws a crowd with cameras and whistles, there are an untold number happening quietly when no one is watching.
These are the arrests you’re not seeing • Minnesota Reformer

ICE just confronted us in our car saying it’s our first & final warning. There’s nothing illegal about driving your car safely on Stinson, Lowry, or any street in our community.

They are purposefully surging at school get out times terrorizing our families. Ice needs to stay away from our kids.

Hey @governorwalz.mn.gov, @mayorjacobfrey.bsky.social, @amyklobuchar.com, et al

Next time you want to make a condescending statement to your constituents who are out here protecting your other constituents, instead try thanking them for doing your jobs & remaining peaceful despite the atrocities

This is important to those who fly internationally or cross-country in legs and have MSP as a stop.
It’s been reported locally, but I’m not sure how much national notice this has gotten. As part of this invasion by shithead goons, they are putting ICE agents in jetbridges and other parts of the airport at Minneapolis-Saint Paul. If you are flying Delta via MSP, you are putting yourself at risk.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents will begin checking documents of travelers and workers at MSP airport, with patrols inside jet bridges.

Publishing the names of protesters and contacting their employers to have them fired for exercising their rights is a tactic straight out of the White Citizens Councils.
They're going to start using the Kirk witch hunt strategy.
