Minnesota's wounds from the ICE occupation are still deep, this fallout is still affecting our neighbors. (Read the whole thread.)

The 28th Virginia battle flag is a Confederate battle flag that belonged to the 28th Virginia Infantry Regiment. Captured by the 1st Minnesota Infantry Regiment at the Battle of Gettysburg, the flag was brought to Minnesota and exhibited at the state's capitol for several years before passing into the permanent collection of the Minnesota Historical Society after 1896 where it has remained since.

Happy Confederate Surrender Day from Minnesota where we still have your goddamn flag and we’re not giving it up.

They’re destroying more than fifty research facilities across thirty-one states, labs that house decades of irreplaceable long-term science, the kind you literally cannot restart once it’s gone. #USForestService

I see what you did here!

When Trump dies and people celebrate that fact, show this to anyone who complains.

When we adopted adventuresome cats, I think my blood pressure went up 30 points until we installed the child-proof TV anchors.

#OnThisDay Mar 11 1893: Wanda Gág is born in New Ulm, Minnesota. After graduating from the Minneapolis School of Art, she writes the classic "Millions of Cats" in 1928, the prototype for all modern children's literature. Today it remains the oldest American picture book still in print.

remember when the IRS put out a a free online tax filing system where you could just do your taxes through the IRS and it was actually well made and was pretty well recieved and then the tax filing industry and Republicans killed it and now you have to use TurboTax again

It ain’t over til Minnesota has ICE’s battle flag

Someone create a photo gallery of midwesterners in pajamas and robes telling the paramilitary troops to eat shit

US Olympic Curling Team member speaks out against ICE:

"I'm proud to represent Team USA. But we'd be remiss if we didn't mention what's going on in Minnesota and what a tough time it's been. What's happening is wrong. There's no shades of gray."

Two protesters in inflatable T-rex costumes protest ICE on a street corner in Minneapolis. Their sign reads "END THE ICE AGE".

Keep working, keep dancing, keep your neighbors' spirits up, oh and fuck ICE!

Good start. Now let's talk about state funding during the upcoming legislative session and an eviction moratorium.

Yes, I’m buying groceries for multiple families now.

Meet Steven the Ice Guy - Southwest Voices Steven Glasford measures ice across Southwest lakes and records it online

our hennepin county delegate is the guy who measures the ice at lakes on his bike and posts it to reddit

extremely funny to do this with a 14 seat restaurant that’s been open for 75 years

Recall that Melissa Hortman and her husband were murdered not long ago by a fake cop who showed up at their door looking like this guy

Fascinating, DOE is working around regulation by editing Department Orders, apparently without opportunity for public comment.

Absolutely. I have never, ever, heard anyone say this in real life. It's a myth (a RACIST myth) that gets repeated by national news only. People call the neighborhood Cedar Riverside, full stop.

Judge Schlitz is not exactly a firebrand and in no way a liberal judge. This is remarkable.

In case you missed it, Congress passed funding for most federal science agencies, with most receiving shallow cuts, just slightly less than under Biden. This is a HUGE repudiation of the administration's war on publicly-funded science (and a repudiation of DOGE in particular).

Reminder: All it would take to end the murder of American citizens by an untrained government goon squad is 16 Republicans in Congress voting with Dems to defund ICE (or 23 to impeach and remove Trump — 3 in House & 20 in Senate). That’s it. 23 Americans can vote for the public and end all of this.

ICE *and* emerald ash borers OUT

Can’t believe this even has to be said but peaceful protects are legal. These arrests are complete bullshit.

Help these ladies keep their neighborhood safe and warm up with a cup of tea! They could really use it today, while their neighborhood is blighted by white supremacists. The Venmo ID for Cedar Riverside Protection Alliance is CRwork26. Thanks @wedge.live for the great suggestion and Venmo info.

If you’re in the Twin Cities and want to do the most minimal thing to annoy ICE, drive the fucking speed limit. These goons get so angry when 20 is plenty.

Note: Minnesota is full of great writers who need work. Stop putting your dudes on planes and start hiring local writers. I've now connected two folks. I can find you more.

*I do not want this work I have a syllabus to finish this ain't about me.

Attorney: No proper warrant for Minneapolis man's arrest in home The arrest of Garrison Gibson came in a city increasingly on edge after an immigration agent shot and killed Renee Good last week.

Immigration attorney: The arrest "during a Minnesota immigration crackdown that the Department of Homeland Security has called its largest enforcement operation ever, was a “blatant constitutional violation,” since the agents did not have a proper warrant..." www.minnpost.com/public-safet...

Great, thanks! And congrats, really awesome to see so much support so fast.
