One of the stories that makes me the saddest out of this ICE invasion is one out of the Minnesota Star Tribune today about ICE agents eating at a little Mexican restaurant in the small town of Willmar, Minn, —and then, when they were done, arresting some of the workers.

It’s funny that there is currently not a single well-known Democratic candidate for governor in Minnesota. The election is 10 months away, and a seismic political shift is happening amidst a very real crisis. Candidates no longer know where the electorate is. Decades happening in weeks stuff.

For people outside Minneapolis: North is the historically Black part of the city. It's been heavily disinvested from, gutted by the 2008 mortgage crisis, and got hit by a tornado which did damage you can still see from aerial photos. It's no mistake ICE is going after more vulnerable populations.
i feel for the people of north minneapolis if they’re about to become a protest hot spot from outside the neighborhoods. this is an area often neglected and ignored by even its own elected officials. people not from over north should really be judicious in how they act coming over there
Near Lyndale and 24th Ave in Minneapolis tonight, feds have reportedly shot another person.

Preliminary info is shaky for now, hearing two people injured.

BORTAC just rolled up in an armored vehicle. A crowd is gathering outside the police tape—MPD presence as well.

There are lots of reasons to compare what is happening now to Nazi Germany and there are also lots of reasons to compare what is happening now to the post-1850 Fugitive Slave Act U.S. and it's *weird* how people respond with interest to the former but total confusion to the latter

Scott Adams blocked me a while back. I’m sorry for his family, but on the day of his death, I think his legacy should be what he said about his own son.

Kudos to the Golden Globe producer who - immediately after a joke about famous people on the Epstein list - cuts to Bill Maher.

every day involves grappling with how embarrassing it is that the secret police are so embarrassing, just complete losers incapable of visiting the men’s room alone, who cannot comprehend why people are calling themselves bums to their faces

thinking about the cop on season 1 of the survival show Alone who spent his entire intro talking about how nothing scares him because of the danger he faces every day on *the streets*. he then sees a bear and immediately calls for emergency extraction less than 24 hours after they dropped him off

After the killing of Ms Good, Greg Bovino of the CPB led a raid on a Minneapolis HS. An official there said: They don’t care. They’re just animals,” I’ve never seen people behave like this.”

All MPLS schools now closed for the week.

Every second the murderer is not arrested is another second for feds to hide him in a place that would create a jurisdictional fight. He's on video killing a person. You have to arrest this guy an hour ago, but you might still have time now.

Frey and O'Hara have to demand the shooter is arrested, and calling for anything short of that is insufficient. They said the right things a couple weeks ago, now do it

The shooter and Bovino have to be arrested. ICE murdered someone in broad daylight.
