Great Moments in Immigration Enforcement

"I asked them if they had a judicial warrant. They said they didn't need one. I said yes you do."

Employees then captured video of agents leaving and turning the wrong way on a one way street.

Thank you to everyone working hard to defend our immigrant neighbors. We’re living through some scary times, but the community is coming together to organize, defend, and protect.

We need you all for the long haul, so please make sure to take care of yourself. We see you and appreciate you. 1/

The Metro E Line is shaping up to be the #1 transit route for cinephiles. You can go from The Main Cinema in Marcy-Holmes to the Lagoon in Uptown to the Mann Theatre at 50th & France to the AMC Southdale 16. That's pure magic right there.

We encountered an ICE immigration enforcement action on Park Ave. in Minneapolis today. When my colleague Ben Hovland and I arrived there were only a couple observers, but there were dozens blowing whistles by the time ICE agents left without making an arrest.

dude was so all about the metaverse that he renamed the whole company, only to burn billions on a venture that anybody with sense knew was destined to fail. it is laughable that he remains in charge. merit simply does not exist
Meta Platforms is planning cuts to the metaverse—an arena Mark Zuckerberg once called the future of the company—and will shift spending to AI wearables.

Suggesting giving that man a raise that’s worth more than my entire yearly wage makes me feel a certain way if I’m being honest.
I want everyone to flip out over this proposal to give the mayor a $46,000 raise. I completely agree that our elected officials should be well paid. But people tear their hair out over council pay, so we need to bring that same energy to this one.

Some positive news for a change.

Minnesota’s laws protecting the rights of transgender people are worthless if those laws aren’t applied and enforced.

That’s why I admire attorneys like Sara Jane Baldwin at @genderjustice.us, relentlessly pursuing justice.
Advocacy group settles with Hennepin County sheriff to expand rights of transgender inmates
Gender Justice says changes include the use of an inmate’s preferred gender identity when assigning housing.

As an activist network, there’s going to be as many goals/visions for the future as there are working groups or people who join (and maybe even more goals than that). My goals in DSA are different than many others. I think the network fruitful (even if the online facet is mostly turrible), but ymmv.
*rubs temple* DSA is not a political party. DSA is an activist network. The reason why DSA fails the “party discipline” standard is because it isn’t one. There are also people w/in DSA, for example, who think the Democratic Party is the only reasonable vehicle for power.

This is what government censorship actually looks like: defunding entire fields, deporting researchers, and quite effectively chilling speech that helps people understand how our information systems are being exploited and calls out powerful people and platforms for their bullshit.
For the last decade, the pervasive spread of bullshit & manipulation of online platforms have been widely recognized societal concerns. Now non US citizens studying those subjects can be labeled “censors” & denied visas or deported from the US. Censorship, indeed. www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...
Exclusive: Trump administration orders enhanced vetting for applicants of H-1B visa
An internal State Department memo said that anyone involved in "censorship" of free speech should be considered for rejection.

Brutal day in Minneapolis, but there were some shining moments of neighbors stopping some abductions, kicking Nazis out of some spaces, chasing them out of others. And there were about 1,000 ppl on an excellent ICE WATCH training zoom led by States At The Center and Protect Rogers Park in Chicago.
