A Red Lake Ojibwe descendant was snatched by ICE in Minneapolis, and a Plains Cree woman was questioned.
This is in addition to the four Oglala Lakota men who reportedly were grabbed by ICE.

There is 1 federal agent for every 200 people in Minneapolis.

More of us need to get outside tomorrow.

We are witnessing a collective descent into the mass psychosis of the American Right.

​Millions performing a scripted delusion, pretending to see an "assault" on an ICE agent by a car moving at a 1 mph. Frothing at the mouth, spitting with curated rage, all to defend a reality that does not exist 🧵

Whistles at the Renee Good Memorial in Minneapolis. The whistle has really become a sound of day to day life on the south side.

The whistles along with car horns are used to warn others of ICE or federal agents in the area.

Those of you who still insist on drawing a distinction between ICE and police should be aware that the police are not drawing that distinction.
Thank you for telling us you neither serve nor protect. Thank you for saying the quiet part out loud. That was state murder in broad daylight, captured from multiple angles by multiple witnesses, and the people of Minneapolis have eyes.

You support murder.

As a reference point for folks outside Minneapolis:

Minneapolis Public Schools will be offering remote/online learning until February 12 (for those who want/need it).

This terror is not ending any time soon.
I just had a progressive family member who lives in another state check in on us & encourage us to be safe.

They asked if we thought the fed govt would clear out tonight.

🤯

There are 100s more CBP agents headed our way. This is not ending soon.

Talk to your people about what’s happening.

Order is not justice, nor peace.

May we move with care, with community, with intention.
We're going to start seeing all the rhetoric around peaceful protest as we're facing our neighbors being abducted, shot in the face with pepper spray, hands broken, and killed in front of their wives.

Think before you even use the word "peaceful." At all.

Also consider this when you encourage anyone in Mpls to be safe.

They’re everywhere and violent.

Any one of us could end up in an unsafe situation simply by going going about our lives.

Here is a video of a frozen creek that had begun to thaw, and the water was flowing beneath the thin ice on top. I took this because it was soothing and wonderfully bloopy and I wanted to listen to it for hours. You are all welcome to enjoy it, too. Let your brain settle here and rest for a moment.

"more training will solve this" is easily debunked by the fact that the killer was a trainer at ICE. It's a barrel of bad apples that exists to produce bad apples and the solution is you woodchip the barrel and compost the apples and try something else.

The national Democratic Party leaving Minneapolis to be under siege and allowing a sitting VP to slander a young mom of three, killed by the state, is collaborationist.

If you’ve got your historical parallels bingo card, Chuck Schumer is Franz Von Papen with a worse name.

my teacher friend asked, if people have more to give, to help meet the goal on this rent relief fund they have set up for families unable to live home due to their status.

if we did $2k in 20 minutes we can do $24k by the end of the day, right?

please amplify!

A gentle reminder in your grief that Renee Good was out there to protect her Black and brown neighbors from ethnic cleansing. That is still the mission.

The focus should remain on slowing down the ethnic cleansing campaign and on protecting Black and brown families and communities from destruction.
