Anyway, I invite AltNPS and everyone else to share this list of Twin Cities-area organizations, food distribution networks, and mutual aid links.
It's got everything. From legal aid links to a GoFundMe for Circulo Childcare Center in Minneapolis, they could all use some love. Thank you!

Completely insane. AltNPS claimed to know the name of Alex Pretti's killer, refused to say it because "the truth always comes out," and then just deleted the post.
A man was executed on the street in my hometown, and AltNPS is using that as an excuse to vaguepost for attention.

They’re watching as ICE terrorizes the city and doing nothing. How is this what you’re doing right now?

ICE just killed another person on Eat street. How many people need to be disappeared by ICE? How many more people need to be killed by ICE? How many more people need to be terrorized before you actually do something? You’re a disgrace.
I spent time at Karmel Mall this week, and many of the small businesses that are usually bustling were closed. Immigrant-owned businesses are hurting right now — and they need our support and more than ever. Go shop!

The problem are: they’ve not done a great job at addressing cost of living and have actively opposed policies that would address this (universal health care for one).
They also just have many Dems elected who hate immigrants and ran anti immigrant campaigns.

Do something. You urged the democrats to adopt much of Tump 1.0’s far right immigration policy. You are part of the problem.
My statement on funding DHS:
The proposed Appropriations bill for the Department of Homeland Security released today puts no meaningful constraints on the growing lawlessness of ICE, and increases funding for detention over the last Appropriations bill passed in 2024.

What good will body cameras do to an agency that is fundamentally unaccountable? Is Bovino going to review the videos? Noem? Some other DHS ghoul? Or the DOJ that doesn’t want ICE accountable? They’ll claim abuse isn’t happening. This just gives ICE more surveillance tech. This is a horrible idea.
Minibus is out. Democrats were able to include some guardrails in about ICE:
-restricts ICE to spending $3.8 billion of its annual budget
on detention as opposed to being able to spend $10 billion

People are trying to frame this as morally good are missing a larger and glaring point: Nazis want PoC dead so approaching them gives them the opportunity to hurt you. Don’t expect people to do that. And don’t encourage people to do that. It will get people killed.
