Creating a thread of egregious ICE actions in the Twin Cities over the last 12 days.
For those who aren't plugged into what's going on - it can feel remote and "not so bad."
Likewise for folks far away. So this collection of stories and links aims to share a small part of the story.

Yesterday, a U.S. citizen was tackled, handcuffed, and taken into federal custody while walking in his own neighborhood. Today, Mubashir shared his story — a story that makes clear just how deeply his constitutional rights were violated.

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.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.
