When a Minneapolis man, a U.S. citizen, asked an ICE agent why he needed to show his documents, the agent said “because of your accent.” We're fighting ICE's unconstitutional racial profiling in court.
Minnesota Residents Sue Trump Administration for Racial Profiling and Unlawful Arrests
ICE and CBP upended life in Minnesota as citizens detail unlawful and violent interactions with ICE in court testimonies as part of ACLU lawsuit against Trump administration.

As any Oklahomans with a sense of decency can tell you, Markwayne Mullen aka the guy who tried to rip the "I am a Man" sign from Al Green's hands, is a lateral move from Noem and nothing to celebrate.
🚨🚨 Operation Metro Surge is NOT over. ICE has received 4 large shipments of brand new vehicles in the past 24 hours. We urge everyone to continue to look out for their neighbors and supporting mutual aid efforts. We will not stop until ICE is OUT.
Emerging statistics on the economic impact of Operation Metro Surge are based on limited data and back-of-the-envelope calculations. Researcher Aaron Rosenthal said rough early estimates are still valuable, because businesses, families and policymakers “can’t wait a year for proper data.”

c0nc0rdance@c0nc0rdance.bsky.social · 9mo agoFranzi Schimmer captured this Grizzly bear in Brooks Falls, Alaska just floating along, tippy-tapping down the river, browsing the salmon. Prior to hibernation, up to 40% of a bear's body mass is fat, which is less dense than water (~0.9 g/cm^2), so the murder-monster is also a floaty-boaty.

Three months of ICE flight observations at MSP: since November 10 there have been 84 known ICE Air flights operating through Twin Cities, with an estimated 3,563 detainees, in shackles, sent away from their homes in and around Minnesota.
It’s day 71 of the ICE occupation of MSP. City council members and PTAs and neighborhoods and businesses are running crowd-funding campaigns to pay rent for our neighbors. It’s February 10, and we’re going to need to do it all again in 18 days. We need an eviction moratorium now. And ICE OUT.
I’ve been eyeing these resistance crafters handiwork and I can’t wait for payday to try my luck!

It’s day 70 of the ICE occupation of MSP. ICE continues to terrorize our neighbors, there are still 2,000 agents here, even as the attention of the world has moved on. When we say ICE OUT, we mean ICE out everywhere.

I think one thing people outside Minnesota don't understand is that after Good and Pretti were killed by feds while observing, the most normal people you could imagine have made peace with the fact that they could be next, and they are still out there because they say it's the right thing to do.
