Another thing you should know about the Twin Cities, if you're not here, is that while the mayor and governor tell us to stay calm on TV, our council members and other local electeds are on the street patrolling and protecting neighbors, doing mutual aid, and otherwise serving the community.

“[ELITE] tells you how many people are living in this area and what’s the likelihood of them actually being there,” a deportation officer with ICE’s Fugitive Operations Unit testified. “It’s basically a map of the United States. It’s kind of like Google Maps."

Flashbangs burn hotter then lava.
They've caused serious burns, severed hands, and even killed.

After ICE agents shot people in Minneapolis tonight, a crowd faced them down and eventually chased them away, despite federal mercenaries and police shooting a tremendous amount of tear gas.
ICE agents abandoned vehicles in the area, containing IDs, paperwork, license plates, and operational plans.

Minnesotans increasingly see racial profiling from ICE agents
Minnesotans who appear Latino or other immigrant backgrounds are being targeted by ICE, forced to show legal documents, or detained for hours despite their citizenship status.

For people outside Minneapolis: North is the historically Black part of the city. It's been heavily disinvested from, gutted by the 2008 mortgage crisis, and got hit by a tornado which did damage you can still see from aerial photos. It's no mistake ICE is going after more vulnerable populations.
i feel for the people of north minneapolis if they’re about to become a protest hot spot from outside the neighborhoods. this is an area often neglected and ignored by even its own elected officials. people not from over north should really be judicious in how they act coming over there
Near Lyndale and 24th Ave in Minneapolis tonight, feds have reportedly shot another person.
Preliminary info is shaky for now, hearing two people injured.
BORTAC just rolled up in an armored vehicle. A crowd is gathering outside the police tape—MPD presence as well.

Journalists often go on hand-fed ride-alongs with agents.
Seldom, though, do they get into the cars of everyday people protecting their communities from those same agents.
We just did exactly that, in ICE-occupied Minneapolis:

We’ve been on the scene all night in North Minneapolis. While we don’t know all the details, we know that ICE shot another person in our City. We also believe a family is still trapped inside and hasn’t been able to talk to anyone, including an attorney.

Similar to 1 week ago at the scene of the killing of Renee Good, Border Commander Greg Bovino showed up to stand with Border Patrol officers blocking the city block. By now a recognizable face, his presence seems to fan the flames.

Live: Federal agent shoots, injures man in north Minneapolis
Gov. Tim Walz addressed Minnesotans in a live broadcast Wednesday night on the surge of federal immigration agents in the state. A federal judge has declined to immediately rule on the ICE surge in Minnesota.

ICE agents are blocking off parts of the neighborhood and continue to shoot less lethal weapons, tear gas and pepper spray.

When anyone tells you that ICE agents are professionals doing an important job, show them this.
A single federal agent with a long gun just walked through the crowd, slipped on the ice on his way under the police tape.
Dropped his loaded clip.
