To the world… Minnesota’s under federal occupation. Local & state police cooperate. ICE/Jonathan Ross murdered Renée Good in cold blood. Secret police abduct people every few minutes every day. U.S. citizens and tribal members have been detained. They’ve begun mass arrests. Our rights have vanished.
In Downtown Minneapolis tonight, my partner and I constitutionally observed, appalled as all local, state, and federal agencies *cooperated* to repress dissent against ICE at a complicit hotel, making mass arrests. At least 12, per reports.

Will never not be jarring to see armed goons demanding people’s papers on the street in the United States of America like it’s Nazi Germany. Fuckin nightmare scenes.

Sorry, what? The federal “investigation” into ICE’s killing of an American is investigating the *victim*?

ICE just indiscriminately stopped a citizen at a bus stop in front of the co-op. If this is how they treat the President of the Minneapolis City Council who is legally observing, just think of what they’re doing to everyone else in our City.

This article of mine from 2024 at @unicornriot.bsky.social still carries a lot of weight because of the implications of not just training civilians to conduct ICE raids, but also because of how it trains everyday people to become informants and cheerleaders for DHS.
ICE is Training Civilians to Conduct Violent Raids on Immigrants
Details about a secretive program got attention after the Center for Constitutional Rights (CCR) published a published a trove of internal documents about ICE’s ‘Citizens Academy’ programs

ICE funding already exceeds the point where, if it was redeployed to other areas, it could fully remove homelessness in the United States more than twice over.

$42.5bn/year vs an estimated $20bn/year to solve homelessness.
.@PabloReports: Would you vote for any funding increases for ICE?

Warren: Not without more restrictions. This is an agency that is out of control. If we don’t get some restrictions in place, they’re going to put more American citizens at risk.

God I love MPLS.
The world’s greatest sex toy shop, Smitten Kitten, has become a mutual aid distribution site. A city wide PTA meeting was held to train teachers and parents how to physically put our bodies between ICE and our kiddos. MPLS throws down.
Fuck ICE. They can’t handle the north.

So many folks in our legal community are ready and eager to get involved. But right now, a lot of work is being done in a decentralized way, by groups without bandwidth to organize. Let's coordinate efforts.

There’s reports that there will be 1,000 more agents coming to our city. We need that same surge in residents out patrolling our streets. Even if you can’t patrol, come work from a coffee shop on one of cultural corridors so you can be there to show up for our neighbors.

Wanted to share my diary with you, on visiting Minneapolis.

I came focused on cruelty: the killing of Renee Good. The agents leaving whatever their lives are to make others’ hell. The elites cheering it all on.

I came looking for what's wrong in America.
But what I found was actually what's right:
Trump's Assault on What's Right
Minneapolis mourns Renee Nicole Good, ICE’s immorality hits a new low, and the National Portrait Gallery quietly edits out Trump’s ugly past.

Federal agents ram a man's vehicle demanding ID at Park/35th in Minneapolis today. The man says he was let go once they realized he was a US citizen. Crowd grew w/ agents then releasing tear gas & pepper spraying some along w/ press and their cameras.

Forcing me—an otherwise extremely masculine hunk of a man—to carry what we used to call a "woman's self defense whistle" to battle rampaging federal goon squads, is all part of Trump's plan to emasculate the American male. Now I go "twee twee twee" all day long, like a girl.

From the MPRB Superintendent staff update on ICE:

"...More than 20,000 people were estimated to have attended the rally at Powderhorn Park on Saturday afternoon..."

Wow! I know it felt like a lot when I was there. Let's keep up the energy everyone!

Breaking NYT:

The Pentagon used a secret aircraft painted to look like a civilian plane in its first boat attack, according to officials briefed on the matter.

The laws of armed conflict forbid combatants from feigning civilian status.

That is a war crime called "perfidy."

lots of political space to convert those “not sures” into somewhat supports and those “somewhat supports” into strongly supports on eliminating ICE. also, with a funding battle coming up, plenty of political space to say “no government funding unless we claw back last year’s new ICE funding”
This YouGov poll on ICE is really eye-opening. Public opinion has really swung against DHS/ICE and their terror regime.
