We are not the first people, or the first country, to suffer under a tyrannical government that does not respect our lives, or our rights.

There is a method for how to effectively resist, and eventually topple, such a regime. We can learn from others who came before us.

This is my favorite guide.

the june lake & bloomington federal raid in minneapolis feels like so long ago. but because crime watch kept naming me directly, i met with an experienced activist afterwards and they said something that stuck with me, like “at the end of these four years, we’re all gonna be on a list”

bro there’s a gofundme to crowdfund attorney fees for a preschooler who was kidnapped by our federal government and shipped across state lines and his senator is posting about high school hockey while every other elected official is debating whether to give a zillion more dollars to the kidnappers

We cannot normalize this federal occupation of Minneapolis.

It is not normal to watch people abducted in front of our eyes—dragged from car windows, pulled from their homes, and children left without parents.

This is not about immigration. It’s about unchecked cruelty.

They're investigating the victim's wife, the victim's friends, the mayor and the governor too, but no, they're not even going to glance in the direction of the murderer.

Come to our cottage! 🥰 And by cottage, we mean our upcoming "Know Your Rights" Business Canvasses in Longfellow today from 1:30-3:30 and in North Minneapolis on Sunday, January 25th from 3:30-5:30. Find the signup links here: buff.ly/rnvJcLx

Local pizza joint leads insurgency against federal paramilitary forces.

If you think this is just “online-radicalized protesters,” you’re not paying attention. People have seen the videos: folks dragged from cars, tear-gassed, kids pulled off the job.

Prosecutors are resigning, cops aren’t being investigated, and somehow the victims get labeled “terrorists.”

A few pictures from tiny Aitkin (MN) today. Folks here have been protesting weekly for almost a year now. Today we said #ICEOutforGood

Hello Governor,

While we're under siege here, it'd be a great time for you to use the emergency power to pause evictions. I know you can't actually do much, but you can do that. Thanks.

At a church in Minneapolis that is hosting an anti-ICE singing vigil, which will later process through the neighborhood.

They sing: “This is for our neighbors who are locked inside, together we will abolish ICE.”

Stay strong, Minnesota. We gotta have each other’s backs.

I hope someone makes a compilation reel: ICE vs. ice. These guys are dipshits.

So now he’s holding the Fed hostage? Great.

ICE totaled this car, abducted a woman, and then left it in the middle of Snelling Avenue, one of the busiest streets in the Twin Cities.

This isn’t law and order, this state sanctioned terrorism. It’s fucking disgusting.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem pledges to surge hundreds more right wing paramilitary fighters into Minneapolis neighborhoods to make sure the nice older lady next door gets a face full of pepper spray.

The Nobel Committee has rejected Venezuela opposition leader Maria Corina Machado's idiotic attempt to share the Nobel Peace Prize with the orange felon.

Good, they need to strip it away from her now she disgracefully tried to trade it to a tyrant for political power.

This is terror. #FUCKIce

Can’t make this shit up. 12 ice agents and 6 cars trying to break into the car they locked themselves out of

A brutal reminder of the human toll of our convenience… Here’s a picture of a person who was abducted by ICE being forced to board a deportation flight still wearing their Amazon delivery uniform.

Many news outlets, including CBS News New York, were excluded from Mayor Zohran Mamdani's first official City Hall press conference Wednesday. CBS was in touch with the mayor's team all day. Our reporters were told the room was at capacity. We offered to go in with just a cellphone and were told "maybe," but ultimately, we were excluded, along with other outlets. The decision is raising questions about media access and transparency.

LOOOOLLLLL

State propaganda organ denied access to opposition leader event, whine about it

they want you to think minneapolis is dangerous. more of brass solidarity band performing today at powderhorn park at the anti ICE protest after their agent killed renee good. the band is made up of community members around george floyd square and they bring joy to every action they appear at

This is Minneapolis:

-drop the kids off for a day with their grandparents
-go to brunch with your wife
-get a text from neighbors who don’t have enough food & can’t leave home or they might be abducted by fed govt
-get groceries as helicopters roar overhead
-deliver food & this vehicle passes you

A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."

The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"

"Learned what?" she asks

Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

This is devastating. ICE terrorizing two women — one a mother holding her newborn baby, the other a Door Dash driver who’d just brought her a meal. Just another day of the occupation of Minneapolis.

a lot of people think the cops should be allowed to shoot you dead if you disrespect them. No word on what you should be allowed to do when the cops disrespect you.

Panning the crowd at MIRAC ICE OUT! Rally in Minneapolis. Impossible to capture the scale. Thousands of people, in frigid temps, saying we love our neighbors & our city #FuckICE #ICEout #Minneapolis
