Unicorn Riot, along with all the other cool stuff they do, has done a great job showcasing how local cops are defending ICE agents, as the agents go around and do their little ethnic cleansing program in the state.
NEW: At least 12 protesters were arrested last night in a heavy handed show of force by a mixture of state and local police. The protesters were taking part in the fourth noise demo against ICE being housed at the Graduate Hotel on the University of MN campus. [Full story at our website]

"In addition to their latent insurgent potential, the Twin Cities’ rapid response networks signal the possible resurgence of a proletarian civic life independent of the two-party system + institutions of a decrepit civil society and left-wing milieu."

Critical analysis from @illwill.bsky.social.
In this addendum to Phil Neel's recent article, two participants offer a balance sheet on anti-ICE struggles in the Twin Cities.

good info in this people in the left need to stay up on
The Trump admin has used 2339A—the “material support for terrorism” statute—against Black Lives Matter protesters in Alabama and anti-ICE demonstrators in Texas.

The ex-DOJ prosecutor who pioneered the use of 2339A says he's never seen anything like it.

ICE has now spent over half a BILLION dollars just on purchasing warehouses around the country to convert into detention camps.

If these mega-camps are utilized to the full capacity ICE intends, they'll be the largest prisons in the country, with little real oversight. www.ajc.com/politics/202...

Local police stood by while neo nazi Jake Lang pepper sprayed people from the back of a Uhaul, then the cops attacked protestors. All in defense of a concentration camp staffed by fascist gestapo filth. This is Minneapolis.
Tayler Mitchell said he was pepper sprayed by Jake Lang as the Jan. 6 rioter drove by the crowd of anti-ICE protesters outside the Whipple Federal Building in a U-Haul.
