Pew Research Institute (2023):

• Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants

• Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants

• Blue State Minnesota has 130,000.

And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration."

It's *not* about immigration.

"ICE is not the problem, it's Joe Biden's open borders that caused this!"
Biden deported 1.1 million people. (and turned away 3 million during Covid.)
Obama deported 3.1 million.
Without any need for ICE to lose their shit.
This has nothing to do with deportation and everything to do with obedience.

Just so people outside of MN know - a lot of the US citizens getting “arrested” by ICE never get processed at Whipple. They are roughed up during the arrest and then often dropped off miles from where they were picked up. It means we don’t know the true scale of what ICE is doing based on ICE stats

Saint Paul schools will be closed Tuesday and Wednesday to prepare for optional online learning.

I’ve seen schools close for snow, for pandemic, for natural disaster. I’ve never seen schools close because of threat from our own government.

Its not that the media is not covering what is happening, but it does feel like the military occupation of an American city should be treated as a national crisis.
A video of ICE agents conducting door-to-door searches today in Minneapolis

The homeowner requests a warrant repeatedly, is told they don't require one, then is told they're getting it, then the agents storm in anyway

They also point a taser at her to try and disrupt filming

Every four years the US is forced to choose between a fascist and a conservative while the newspapers claim politics has gone too far to the left

The tariff policy changes every ten minutes. What a joke.

It’s nuclear grade incompetence that would be laughable except they’re ruining people’s lives for sport. Just shameful.

I wrote about this terrible week, dark times ahead, and how we can best oppose fascists by doing all the many things fascists can't.

Fighting In The Dark
Doing things fascists can't do. Not doing things fascists want us to do. Doing thing fascists don't want us to do. Refusing the fascist offer.
