Things are happening so fast. It feels like just yesterday we were talking about the possibility (imagine!!!) of armed agents roaming America's streets. Sometimes it feels to me like people are getting used to this nightmare. Pro tip: Don't.

Not only did they shoot someone through a door into a home with children, they later tear gassed a family of 6 in their minivan and then blamed the family "for bringing kids to a protest." There was no good reason for any of those hospitalizations. No both sides. No exaggerating.

“Remarkable projection of police power?” Really? @nytimes.com needs an overhaul. This is not a “projection of police power.” This is an abuse of power, and it’s illegal.

After that I had to talk to my teenager about what to do if they ever tried to get into their high school or take one of their friends (don't answer questions, run back inside, get an adult). Just surreal

I've repeatedly used the Roosevelt HS case because it's so unexplainable.

Like, imagine the MPD was chasing a suspect and the chase took them through a high school at dismissal...

And then somehow they ended up getting into multiple scrums with students and arresting two teachers? What???

He can say whatever he wants and issue whatever executive order he wants, but he has no legitimate power to actually do anything like this.

Panicked posts like this one give the impression that he can make good on his threats. He can't.
This may be the most dangerous development of all. It will give Trump fake legal pretext to reject Nov election results. American democracy has like 9 months left.

Hey remember the shooting in Minneapolis that happened between Renee Good and Alexi Pretti, the guy they claimed was shot by an agent after he had attacked that agent with a shovel? I know it's hard to believe but the agents' story fell apart and charges were dropped. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/12/u...

Just as ICE and CBP have no legitimate role in "election security" neither does the head of DHS. The mere existence of this press conference should be a scandal, much less this tone-deaf comment.

Just a reminder that the UC system was not a party in this litigation. Faculty, staff and the @aaup.org fought on their own. UCLA, and the entire UC system, should be ashamed of themselves, and their leaders should be reminded of their submissives every day.

There are neighbors that we don’t see anymore. Have they moved, are they afraid to leave their homes, are they being harassed by others, did ICE kidnap them?

People are literally disappearing and I fear the worst is yet to come.

I think when they said they were reducing their numbers here, I said something about how it's good to celebrate, but it's not an overall victory.

It's like a homerun that puts the team ahead in the 5th or 6th inning or something. Celebrate! But don't stop playing the game.

ICE may have lost the battle for public opinion, and its operation may be hampered by local pushback, but it has succeeded in one respect: It has instilled terror in Minnesota’s immigrant communities, forcing them into the shadows.

Occupation was brutal, lawless, a massive waste of resources—plus it blew up the US attorneys office, the mechanism by which you hold fraudsters accountable. So you can bet we'll memory hole that MN Republicans cheered it on, so they can quickly return to being fraud warriors.

I am wary of any politicians doing a victory lap today before we’ve seen on the ground that ICE has left. Their surety makes me think that they negotiated something and I think they owe it to us to be as transparent as possible about what that is.

I hope people are paying attention to what ICE is up to now. They are going to have a show of force in every state before the midterms.

Klein: People are afraid to come into clinics or hospitals because they’re afraid they’ll be snatched. So they’re staying home with acute conditions like appendicitis. They’re not going to their follow-up neonatal appointments. They’re allowing their jaundiced babies to go untreated.

Minnesota, you won. Much of ICE are leaving. Don't trust this. They are trying to get the funding bill passed. Once the bill passes they'll be back at it either by you or someplace else.

Still around 100 community reports of ICE activity around the Twin Cities today, the most of any state by far.

In case you’re wondering why so many of us aren’t quite taking Homan’s presser today at face value.

Ending this operation is not enough.

We need justice and accountability. That starts with independent investigations into the murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, economic restitution for businesses impacted, abolishing ICE, and the impeachment of Kristi Noem.
