Strange things are happening
A magistrate judge found no probable cause to support arrest warrants for 5 people involved in the St. Paul church protest.

One of North America's greatest writers of poetry and short stories was born on this day in 1809.
This daguerreotype of Edgar Allan Poe was made months before his death at age 40. Few daguerreotypes of notable poets, novelists, or painters have survived from the 1840s.

One of the first things anyone learns about facial recognition is that it is often wrong and that it is biased. And yet ICE is using it all day every day to determine legal status & who to detain. And now we have a high-profile example of it being flat out wrong:

I've heard rumors that Philadelphia is next for the ICE invasion after Minneapolis.
Maybe I'm wrong, but
1) More than 11% of all ICE agents are in Minneapolis, and they've utterly failed to pacify the city.
2) Philly is 5x the size of Minneapolis.
3) "Minnesota nice" is a thing. We don't have that.

The first thing Virginia Spanberger did after being sworn in as Governor of Virginia was repeal Youngkin’s executive order requiring state and local law enforcement to cooperate with ICE.
This is the kind of leadership Democratic governors nationwide should be emulating.
