People are avoiding healthcare, construction at a standstill. Some of this abolished ICE funding has to go to MN reparations and we deserve a hefty federal tax discount
The DHS occupation is crushing the economy of the whole area. It's just tragic how people are suffering.

who’s abolishing the police now #idleg
In addition to furloughing staff by 19 hours during every two-week per pay period for the rest of this fiscal year, additional cuts would also force ISP to reduce positions for security at the Capitol and – if 2% cuts are implemented in FY 2027 – eliminate the ISP SWAT team, documents show. #idleg
Additional new budget cuts would force state to furlough Idaho prison guards, state police • Idaho Capital Sun
“Reduced staffing will compromise safety, disrupt essential services and increase legal and fiscal risks for the state," officials wrote.

wonder if Tom Homan is familiar with how "bags of money" work in Minnesota per the Mighty Ducks
Can Minnesota pay Tom Homan $50,000 to get ICE out?

I know all eyes are on Minneapolis, but there's a fast-approaching nightmare in Springfield, Ohio.

Trump is revoking protected status for tens of thousands of Haitians living there on Feb. 3.

Reportedly, on Feb. 4, 1000 ICE agents are arriving to remove this population. Ethnic cleansing.

Look, if you had a party scheduled at your house, and the pipes broke and the floor was covered in raw sewage, you’d tell your friends not to come over.

In that spirit: world, skip the World Cup until we get this sewage worked out. And don’t be too sure about the Olympics.

getting feds to say shit like this on camera with their face exposed is NUTS -- you can not reform this agency, everyone involved must go, there is no practical way to root out all of these guys
"You raise your voice, I erase your voice."

ICE in Minneapolis are erasing your rights.

Asked about Minneapolis, Victor Wembanyama says, “PR has tried, but I’m not going to sit here and be politically correct.”

Then says “it’s crazy that people make it seem like … the murder of civilians is acceptable.”

Abolish DHS. If you can imagine a world before Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, you can imagine a world without the Department of Homeland Security. My latest at @startribune.com. (gift link)
Perry: Abolish ICE? How about DHS altogether.
"We have models for how to structure federal immigration oversight that doesn't rely on an unaccountable masked secret police force running rampant in our streets," David M. Perry writes.
