Many Americans, who like to walk around with large guns, have spent countless decades posturing about standing up to tyranny. Yet when it comes, they’re actually the agents terrorizing neighborhoods. While the courageous ones are scared regular people who are finding power through each other.

This is one of the most insane protests I've ever been to. Tens of thousands of Minnesotans in -20°F (-28°C) cold with absolutely manic energy. We are going to throw these goddamn bastards out of our cities.

Another question I came here with was: how effective are the whistles and honking? Does it stop abductions? And the answer is, surprisingly to my cynical self, yes, and often. I have talked to so many people who have successfully interrupted kidnappings.

My loose info so far is that the Minneapolis General Strike today had about 80 unions sign on, and it might be one of the biggest labor actions in decades depending on your definition

If the admin's strategic goal was to break public resistance to immigration enforcement activities, it was a tactical mistake to go to the Twin Cities.

The 5-year-old arrested by ICE In Minnesota is detained at Dilley. We reported on conditions there in the below article.
Parents said the food was contaminated with mold and worms & that children were so under so much stress that they were hitting their own faces & wetting themselves.

Analysis by The Marshall Project of ICE data obtained by the Deportation Data Project found that the Trump administration’s revival of family detention has swept thousands of children into ICE custody. At least 3,800 children under 18, including 20 infants, have been booked since Trump took office.
ICE Threw Thousands of Kids in Detention, Many For Longer Than Court-Prescribed Limit
Former immigration staffers argue ICE is choosing to detain families for prolonged periods to speed deportations and compel them to leave.

I've talked to people on the ground about the strike here tomorrow, and the single thing everyone brings up is just how shockingly wide the support for the strike is. Businesses that no one would have expected to support it are doing so.
National media should really be covering the fact thay every major school, museum, and arts institution in the Twin Cities, and hundreds of local businesses are closed tomorrow to protest federal occupation.
Nothing like this at this scale has happened anywhere in America anytime in living memory.

So stoked to share this with the world! HOUSE HUNTERS resonated with me—and all the editors who saw the project—because we've all suffered the struggle of finding a place to live. Kelly is unbelievably talented, and HH is both dark AND funny with vibrant, energetic art that'll suck you in! 🥊💥
Hello!! 🥳 I'm very excited to introduce HOUSE HUNTERS, a graphic novel that's been simmering in my head for almost a decade.
Thank you so much to @janechunlit.bsky.social for being this story's #1 supporter, and to Tess for finding it a home at 23rd Street. I can't wait to share this with you all!

Would loveeee to see a YA query in my inbox that features a group of kids similar to the squad in Attack the Block or Bottoms. Totally different genres, but someone out there has to be reading this and going, "Yeah, I get it. I get the vibes you're looking for." 🙏

This is literally what they do whenever a Black person is killed by police. No matter how solid the evidence is, they will keep pushing that lie, not just to poison the conversation and make sure the killer walks free, but to reassert the political idea that these people deserve to be killed.
The shooting is shocking enough but the government's response is off the charts when you consider that this incident is forensically documented on video.

Two queer women with a 6 year old in school today stopped to film ICE and for their bravery ICE agents murdered one before the other’s eyes. The grief in the survivor’s voice is a knife to the gut. Destroying people and their bonds is what ICE has always done.
NEWS: In a heartbreaking video, after ICE shot and killed a woman in Minneapolis, a woman who was in the same SUV cries out: “They killed my wife. I don’t know what to do."
“We stopped to videotape, and they shot her in the head,” the distraught woman sobs.
