Selling Brandi Carlile tix for tonight! DM me if interested!

In addition to being absolutely brilliant, amazing & charming in her own right, we all know she was raised by a single dad w/4 siblings and that he came to the US bc of persecution bc of his participation in the ‘89 Tiananmen democracy uprising, right?

50 units and no parking requirements… you absolutely love to see it

I helped mobilize a group of neighbors to provide direct aid to nearly 50 families who are in hiding from ICE.

These folks deserve fresh, familiar foods. So we're purchasing groceries direct from neighborhood Latino markets whenever we can.

Venmo @kristina-halvorson to help, and please repost.

Y'all may have heard about the incident last week where ICE agents pretended to have car trouble to lure someone from his house so they could abduct him. Here is the GoFundMe for his family. www.gofundme.com/f/support-th...

this is devastating

repugnant abuser talk

If those who claim the authority of law do not obey the law, and the law does not stop them, then they do not have the authority of law, because there is no longer any law.

Just heard the broadcaster on MPR (Jacob Alloy?) repeat a DHS statement uncritically that “ICE doesn’t do operations on hospitals.” Uh, that’s 100% false.

The RFK number seems like a massive failure of the media to explain what RFK is doing to our public health system and how catastrophic it will be

To put this in perspective, the federal government spends *a combined* $33 billion each year on Title I (for low income families) and IDEA (for special needs students).

A screenshot of People Over Papers’ ICE reporting map. The map resets at 4 am ET every day. In Minnesota, over 100 reports have been filed today, with the overwhelming majority in and around the Twin Cities. Stay safe. Fuck ICE.

Still around 100 community reports of ICE activity around the Twin Cities today, the most of any state by far.

In case you’re wondering why so many of us aren’t quite taking Homan’s presser today at face value.

Someone was abducted at 10 AM by ICE on Central Ave. Their coworker says they’ve lived here for over 20 years, are documented, and have 3 kids who were born here.

Don’t be fooled by headlines when they’ve been lying to us the whole time. We still need you out patrolling until every agent is gone.

ICE has been active this morning staging in St Anthony so we still need people out patrolling our neighborhoods.

I’m headed to the Capitol today ahead of session starting next week to work on the 70 bills we have around ICE.

Some gems in this thread

Welcome, visiting journalists. It's Nicollet, two l's, one t, no silent e.

Walz: "I couldn't help but think, and it scares me a bit -- 'The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most important directive.' It certainly feels like that in this moment."

Dear fellow Twin Citizens, do not forget your meds this morning (including caffeine).

This is literally what they do whenever a Black person is killed by police. No matter how solid the evidence is, they will keep pushing that lie, not just to poison the conversation and make sure the killer walks free, but to reassert the political idea that these people deserve to be killed.

Right now, Minnesota feels like ground zero for something terrifying. The country feels dangerously fractured, and one of those fault lines runs straight through our state. Decades ago Nina Simone sang, "Mississippi God-dam." It is chilling to realize how often Minnesota is now often spoken of the same way. phil.morris@startribune.com

This is the kicker at the end of the (signed) editorial in today’s The Minnesota* Star Tribune

This a very big deal.
The entire city school district preemptively canceling school Thursday and Friday in response to Police Activity.

These are very troubling and scary times we are living in

The citizens of Minneapolis sound united.
