Really crazy to hear Lyons keep saying ICE agents in MN are simply carrying out targeted, intelligence-driven enforcement operations.

ICE is literally circling elementary schools in this Minneapolis suburb every day, looking for brown and Black children to nab. www.huffpost.com/entry/ice-mi...

Good morning. Happy Monday. Minneapolis is still under federal occupation and thousands of my neighbors are still afraid of leaving their homes. Nothing has changed.

I’m sort of concerned, in the wake of the whole Epstein thing, that LLMs are not programmed to be obsequious, but rather that the vast majority of human correspondence on the internet in the training data was already fucking obsequious. Of course a bot trained on millions of emails is obsequious.

No point in explaining the same shit over and over again to people who enthusiastically supported the idea training facilities and extra funds for cop hires was the smart answer to police violence.

There's a point, well below a billion dollars, where the amount of money you have lets you rid yourself of anyone who can be a check on your worst impulses, and replace them with people who tell you those worst impulses are somehow valorous. Rare is the billionaire with someone to tell them "no."
You can look at the Epstein files and conclude that only bad people have billions of dollars, but I think it’s also possible that having billions of dollars cauterizes your humanity

i don’t necessarily agree with all the people responding ‘because they want this,’ i see it more as ‘because it’s worth looking the other way on this to avoid making the campaign donations sad’ and i think that’s worse
I do not understand why Dems (or someone) are not broadcasting wall to wall montages of ICE thugs abusing our neighbors, abducting children, terrorizing US citizens, invading homes w no warrant, or murdering mothers. This should be a massive exercise in ISSUE SALIENCE driven by Dem elites.

I think the reason we have not seen Frey, Her, and Walz change their orientations on exercising the use of state policing power to repel the federal occupation is that to do so would be to admit the State Patrol, National Guard, MPD, SPPD, et al., are de facto not actually under their command.

in june 2020 MPD completely ignored anything Frey said and terrorized the residents of Minneapolis and their reward was constant budget increases, extensive “mental health” leaves and bigger salaries.

On the ground here in Minnesota, it’s hard to reconcile the immense bonds of community that have been built in a week with the fact that we live in a country whose government appropriated billions of dollars to an unaccountable paramilitary force whose sole purpose is ethnic cleansing.
