This isn’t immigration policy. It’s a business model.

ICE keeps growing, not because it makes America safer, but because corporations are raking in billions off cages, bodies, and suffering. ICE’s existence is a massive revenue stream.

I know in my heart that the Siege of Minneapolis will go down as one of the biggest political blunders/grossest abuses of federal power in American history. Just a matter how long that consensus takes. Next week? Next year? Next decade?

Senator Tina Smith says that she has received reports that another person died in ICE custody today. If true, it would mark the 7th ICE detention death of 2026 and the second public reporting today. It is only January 18th.

These are concentration camps. And these are the numbers they're comfortable sharing.
This is the sixth death in ICE custody in 18 days. This isn’t enforcement, it’s a system that cages people, outsources care, and shrugs when they die. Abolish ICE.

Minnesota is more than what you see on TV.

We’re a state that believes in the dignity of all people. We feed our kids and take care of our neighbors.

I’m proud of the ways Minnesotans are meeting the moment with decency and generosity - as we always do.

1/ What will happen if 47 is able to appoint a compliant Fed chair & other board members, & if they actually lower the short-term interest rates they control to 1%? Expected inflation & then actual inflation would rise.

An economist explains the stakes. No pay wall.
Why the world’s central bankers had to speak up against Trump’s attacks on the Fed
It’s unusual for central bank leaders to issue such a statement. But the reason is simple: what happens in the US matters worldwide.

Truly banana pants insane. Every time a federal law enforcement official shoots anyone it should be investigated fully (investigations dont nessacary mean they will be charged, that is why you investigate!). This is the bare minimum for a functioning society instead of a dictatorship
BREAM: Is the FBI investigating the ICE agent who shot Renee Good?

BLANCHE: What happened has been reviewed by millions of Americans bc it was recorded. We investigate when it's appropriate. That is not the case here. We are not going to bow to pressure. So no, we are not investigating.

Two community members stand on the street corner of Central Ave and 18th St, watching over a local business in 5° temps with a wind chill of -15°. They are patrolling the area, keeping an eye out for ICE activity, doing what they can to protect their immigrant neighbors.

These neighborhood signal chats are absolutely crazy right now. You’ve got young activists in there with the most normie folks alive who all just absolutely fucking hate ICE so much. And they are all willing to put their bodies on the line for their communities.

Some additional notes:

* The cold will make your phone battery go dead much faster than it normally would. Plan accordingly. This is also true of electric car batteries.

* Really intense cold will impair you. Like, you will have trouble thinking. Your body will get stiff from the cold.
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.

Maine alert: ICE is expanding its presence. Know the signs, alert neighbors, document safely, and stay nonviolent—but don’t stay silent. Community awareness saves lives. Save this graphic. Share widely.

The funny thing is that the system worked--just not *our* domestic political system.

NATO fucking worked. It's remarkably effective even in its badly wounded state, with the US in a tailspin of insanity.
Again reiterating "a war is averted after stealth fighters and commandos get deployed to show the other guys aren't fucking around" is an entirely different outcome than "a war is averted because the system and/or reasonable diplomacy worked."

Such a shame and an embarrassment to the US that such a statement needs to be made.

Pew Research Institute (2023):

• Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants

• Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants

• Blue State Minnesota has 130,000.

And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration."

It's *not* about immigration.
