The most important public health story in America right now is that the Trump administration is kidnapping 2-year olds
ICE detained a 2-year-old girl in Minneapolis and put the child on a flight to a detention center in Texas, despite a court ordering her release: www.startribune.com/agents-detai...

Here’s my sign from today. ICE agents are pathetic cowards, but IMO the greedy bastards at the top of the companies making bank off ICE concentration camps deserve a lot more attention for being the most rancid ghouls in the chain of misery our government has created.

ICE is targeting food shelves to catch people because they are desperate + starving - when you think to yourself about bygone eras, how could one human justify enslaving another or justify taking the job of slave catcher? here is your modern understanding laid bare. this is evil

NEW: Nasra Ahmed, a 23-year-old US citizen was arrested and held for TWO DAYS. ICE agents handcuffed her, called her a racial slur, and she was knocked to the ground so hard she got a concussion. This is perfectly sums up what ICE is. It must not just be abolished, these agents MUST be Prosecuted!

Just 1 day in Minnesota and 2 things are crystal clear to me. People are traumatized. And people are resilient.

Far from backing down, Minnesotans are organizing—in a cold unlike any I've experienced in my life. Meanwhile, Corporate Democrats push through additional ICE funding. Here's my recap.
Minnesota Momentum & Corporate Democrat Betrayal
Just 1 day in Minnesota has improved my outlook on hope for the future of this country--but we need Corporate Democrats to stop betraying us

“Simply put, ICE Watch does not spur violence; it reduces it. It’s based on de-escalation tactics that have long historical roots in American antiviolence and civil rights movements, as well as a strong theoretical foundation… about why violence happens and how it can be prevented.”
For @msnownews.bsky.social, I wrote an article about how ICE Watch is grounded in sociological theories of violence prevention.

The reality is that most men will only commit public violence in extremely specific scenarios and ICE Watch disrupts the conditions necessary for escalation.
Opinion | I'm a Minneapolis sociologist who studies violence. Here's how ICE observers are helping.
Research into how violence occurs shows that disapproval from the people around you can help reduce it.

Target is headquartered in Minneapolis, so it seems significant to me that a Minneapolis city council member is calling on residents to boycott the company for its role in facilitating ICE activity in the city.
As the Council Member who represents this area, I am calling on Target to speak up, take action to make its parking lot and stores safe, and to be on the right side of history. 2/

Didn’t we have years of discourse about cancel culture, free speech, and employment, especially on college campuses? I could’ve sworn that happened. I was told over and over that it wasn’t about the speaker or the content of speech.

The Times went to non urban Minnesota to ask people why they dislike urban Minneapolis. If someone were to ask me to teach a journalism school course on helicopter reporting, this story - so cliche it’s almost hard to believe they really did this - would immediately go on the syllabus.
NYTimes has truly outdone itself with this latest in its "ask white guys in diner" genre.

A competent opposition political party would cut together the footage of what ICE had been doing in the twin cities with Mike Johnson saying "ICE is doing what ICE is designed to do" and have it in ads all across the country
Mike Johnson comes out against additional guardrails on ICE as Democrats call for it.

“I think there's a lot of Democrats playing games right now with national security and with law enforcement. And I think it's dangerous. Ice is doing what ice is designed to do by its very name.”
