ICE is still in my Minneapolis neighborhood today.
This is a good video to share with your conservative, liberal, and on the fence (how?) people.
You need to know about the SAVE Act, which recently passed in the House.
So here's a crash course from reporter Ari Berman on how the sweeping voter restriction bill could disenfranchise millions of Americans

Do you have a bunch of frequent flyer miles banked? You can make them available to people who have been detained by ICE and who need to fly home.

Found an additional graphic that gets even more of these quotes together.
I've kept "I hate myself, I hate clover, and I hate bees" pinned above my desk since I first started studying evolutionary biology as an undergraduate. So relatable to get extremely frustrated with your study system.

ICE “left” Chicago in November, but they’ve disappeared three people from my community in two days this week.
Don’t believe the hype about them, leaving Minnesota, either.

This kind of small scale work actually matters in creating the societal pressure we need to exert on these creeps. Consequences.
i decided to be really petty and emailed our alma mater’s alumni hall of fame (of which lutnick is an inductee) to see if they would remove him from it and they have not responded lmao

I've been learning about Puerto Rican fauna & I find this little guy fascinating.
It's the Puerto Rican lizard cuckoo (Coccyzus vieilloti) & the name is perfection.
1. It's from Puerto Rico.
2. It's a cuckoo.
3. It eats lizards (sorry).
One last zing: the locals call it "pájaro bobo mayor"...

My household is supporting a South Minneapolis family unable to work or leave home due to ICE. If we can raise some or all of their $1600 rent, we can avoid drawing from high-demand assistance funds and ensure there's more to go around.

I hear from people who are surprised I'm still talking about ICE, they thought they'd withdrawn from MN.
No, they have not. In some respects they've escalated.
Some asked why MN is a target. Are there are there a lot more illegals or criminals here?
No, it's not about that. It's about a grudge.
