There are frequent rumors of ICE activity in Des Moines, this week none are verified but it's hard to dismiss.
There is already a great site where we can report ICE activity: iceout.org
The site moderators categorize, so it's easy to see which sightings are verified (markers with check marks)

YOUR PHONE CALLS TO THE SENATE ARE WORKING. KEEP CALLING.

Three Democrats who previously broke with the party and voted with the GOP are now saying they will not vote for the bill. That’s enough for the bill to be unpassable right now.

This is why Minneapolis isn’t charging for towed vehicles due to ICE abductions. In Bloomington you can literally just sit at the speedway and wait, eventually you’ll see a car be abandoned at a gas pump.

It's -20 in Minneapolis and organizers are in the streets before dawn getting ready for actions related to the general strike. They've had locals training out-of-town volunteers on how to prepare for and endure the cold. AND IT IS WORKING. THE STRIKE IS HAPPENING. THE CITY IS DOING THE DAMN THING...

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

If your solution to the ICE problem is more training and body cams, after Jonathan Ross, a 10 Year ICE veteran, murdered Renee Good and captured the act on his OWN PHONE, you are an enemy of the people and cannot be trusted as a public servant ever again.

ICE agents only do this because they are extremely well-trained and experienced with the situations they are creating
ICE agents fled from the crowd and left behind their CONOPS battle plan for Minneapolis, including agent's names, hotel rooms, phone numbers, boxes of license plates, and tac radio frequencies.

This is insane. Brooks says everyone is too blinded by ideology to see the truth of what the video shows. Then the host asks him what it shows and he refuses to answer.
“Left and right are equally to blame for everything all the time” is also an ideology!

This is true. We may not be able to stop everything but we can sure as hell slow it down
obviously not in the sense that it’s stopping everything, but they are being stalled so much by trying to find places where they aren’t watched, wasting so much manpower and resources on crowd control and even arresting observers they know will just get released. i am so proud of everyone

Remembering today that having your heart broken is a necessary step on the path to becoming fully human. Whichever heartbreak is your first, it’s probably critical that a state break your heart so that you can develop a political imagination. If this is your first, I’m sorry and also welcome.

there is no positive route forward for the United States without mass arrests and trials for DHS employees
You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today.
This could be you.

A friend in Minneapolis just sent me this video. Looks like thousands have come together for a vigil after an ICE agent shot and killed 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good. This was my neighborhood for several years before coming to Portland.

I have been stalled for a long time about posting creative work because there is absolutely always a new atrocity which should take precedence in everyone's mind before whatever thing I'm doing. Extremely true today, which i didn't realize until after I posted.

It takes an enormous amount of courage to stand there, keep filming, and scream "What the fuck, you asshole" at someone wearing a badge who just shot and killed one of your neighbors in cold blood.
I need people to wrap their minds around the fact that here in Minneapolis, ICE broke the window of a vehicle yesterday, pepper sprayed the occupants, and arrested them, and shot another observer in the face today, and OBSERVERS ARE STILL GOING OUT TO PROTECT THEIR NEIGHBORS AT MASSIVE PERSONAL RISK
I’m eating lunch, I’m having a panic attack, I’m charging my phone, and then I’m going back out to try and keep my neighborhood safe.
