Sun pillar this morning from Chesterfield County!
Normally seen at sunrise or sunset when it is very cold, the sun is bending through a small layer of hexagonal ice crystals — high in the sky and toward the distant horizon.

A Minnesota woman observing ICE agents in her car was cornered on one-way streets. An agent approached, called her by name—citing facial recognition. Days later, her Global Entry and TSA privileges were revoked, with no explanation.

ICE's decision to just leave cars abandoned in the roads is one of those dystopian things that makes you recoil in shock when you encounter it.
A legal asylum-seeker who works at Chipotle and plays music at a church in Maine went missing. His pastor searched and searched, eventually finding his abandoned car with the keys on the floor.
ICE grabbed him. No criminal record. No explanation.

In theater. So they think they’re at war.
Q: Can you be specific about how many ICE and CBP agents are currently operating in the state?
HOMAN: 3,000. There's been some rotations. They've been in theater a long time. Day after day, can't eat in restaurants, people spin on you, blowing whistles at you. But my main focus now is draw down

ICE and CBP are at the head of Trump's campaign to terrorize Minnesotans. But the Justice Department is not far behind.

The Department of Justice has rushed to shield federal agents from accountability and launched needless criminal investigations into Minnesota officials and residents.

This mindset is genuinely pathetic.
It’s an alpha fantasy: watching state violence and imagining you’re exercising power rather than the one submitting to it.

With 2 white people murdered by ICE for standing in solidarity with POC, we are now at the Mississippi Burning stage of this latest fight against white supremacy.
The major difference is that the feds are now the murderers and state & local police must decide if they will investigate and prosecute.

The right is calling protesters and observers of ICE violence an “insurgency” to dehumanize the people of Minneapolis, and also to normalize the image of protesters being suppressed by the U.S. military or militarized federal forces.
