There just is not protest right now, other than at Whipple, and the goal of that is still to find ways to waste the feds’ time and identify them, so it is still in service to resistance. I don’t think people get how much solidarity has been built and how EVERYONE is in this fight.
I think it still hasn’t really sunk in for a lot of us that Minnesotans have moved from mass protest to mass resistance.

Just a reminder that the federal building in Minneapolis where ICE is holding protesters, immigrants, citizens, etc. A place where you are not guaranteed a “one phone call”, where you have no due process, is the same land where they held Indigenous people in a pen in the late 1800s.
