Miranda Danielson

Today coworker who lives in Blaine asked me how she could report ice activity on her block. Another posted a gofundme for his barber in Big Lake *on linkedin*

The majority of organizing happening in Minnesota isn’t just peaceful, it’s INVISIBLE. Moms showing up who won’t be interviewed on TV, people whose ICE patrols don’t turn into viral video. The grocery runs, the donations, the people filming bc they happen to be there. Please remember this.

I'm honestly getting annoyed with some people (even here) acting like, within recent memory things popped off in the Twin Cities with George Floyd. 2015 was Jamar Clark, 2016 was Philando Castile and then after Floyd, in 2021 Daunte Wright was killed

The people who'll tell you today's murder victim in Minnesota shouldn't have turned up to a protest carrying a gun are the same people who said Kyle Rittenhouse was perfectly entitled to do the same thing.

Two small children hold signs they made. "LEAVE MY FRIENDS ALONE!" "ICE GIT OUT YA FUCKIN DUMBIES 😡"

Gotta remind yourself not to cry when you see the kid's signs.

It's negative -25°F and tears are dangerous.

"LEAVE MY FRIENDS ALONE!"

"ICE GIT OUT YA FUCKIN DUMBIES 😡"

If the admin's strategic goal was to break public resistance to immigration enforcement activities, it was a tactical mistake to go to the Twin Cities.

In solidarity with today's ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA blackout, MinnMax is donating $1 to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota for every share of this Bluesky post for the next hour.

“Like the agent who slipped on ice, they have misjudged the ground beneath their feet: a state full of ordinary people — real estate agents, high school students, solar energy consultants — who’ve decided that watching their neighbors being dragged away is an intolerable sin.”

Every time the Trump regime uses the words "funded protesters" and "outside agitators" news outlets need to cut to this photo from last week.

ICE has invaded these communities. Outside agitators don't show up in their fucking bathrobes.

I don’t think people quite understand that the occupation by ICE in the Twin Cities has more or less erased non-white people from public life. They cannot safely exist in any space accessible to the public and moving between private places leaves folks vulnerable to kidnapping by armed masked goons.

My representative should be on tv showing clips of this shit to everyone every fucking night until this bullshit ends. We are being fucking abandoned by our state and federal representatives.

this is probably too-nuanced a take for social media, but i have been thinking that a *lot* of politicians did not run initially thinking they'd serve during a dictatorship. Like this was not actually the job they wanted/said they could do, and they are wholly unprepared to meet the moment 1/

Rep. Kelly announces plans to impeach Secretary Kristi Noem WASHINGTON – Today, U.S. Rep. Robin Kelly (IL-02) announced plans to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem following the fatal shooting by an ICE officer in Minneapolis.

I refuse to stay silent while Secretary Noem breaks the rule of law and terrorizes our communities. I am introducing Articles of Impeachment against her for violating the public trust, obstructing Congress, and self-dealing. Read my full statement: robinkelly.house.gov/media-center...

The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.

If you have any funds to spare and want to help Minneapolis right now, getting dash cams to observers is crucially important and especially after today

ICE observers in the Twin Cities are in need of dash cams to prevent further intimidation and frivolous claims.

Cams are $110, memory cards $35, and ship to us directly via this wish list: www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...

If you've been looking for a way to help, we'd sure appreciate it!

I need people to wrap their minds around the fact that here in Minneapolis, ICE broke the window of a vehicle yesterday, pepper sprayed the occupants, and arrested them, and shot another observer in the face today, and OBSERVERS ARE STILL GOING OUT TO PROTECT THEIR NEIGHBORS AT MASSIVE PERSONAL RISK

I saw one offered in my FB buy nothing group not too long ago, you could try posting an ask for one in yours!

Since it's come up again, I'll try to succinctly state my view on "AI" as we think of it in culture & tech these days. I think "Big AI" products (ChatGPT, Google Gemini) are mostly terrible for society, because they've been foisted without consent on millions, with lies about what they can do.

Donate to Minneapolis for Henry OUR Custodian, organized by Amelia Marquez Hi everyone! My name is Amelia Marquez! I am a teacher at a public school i… Amelia Marquez needs your support for Minneapolis for Henry OUR Custodian

I’m a teacher at one of the public schools in Minneapolis. One of our janitors, Henry, is majorly behind on his rent, struggling to afford his heart medications, and can’t afford groceries.

speaker melissa hortman and her husband

Speaker Hortman was a bold and brave leader who made hard decisions and fought for the people of Minnesota every single day.

She and her husband Mark did not deserve to die. My heart goes out to their children.

Hortmann and her husband are dead according to Erin Murphy, reported on KSTP.

Statement from Brasa about being closed for "un dia sin immigrantes"

Good for Brasa.

people just showing up to bluesky: there's not enough political conflict here

bluesky, for the entire first year and a half of its existence:

i think that the people interested in recriminations and score settling right now aren’t seriously grappling with the magnitude of what happened and the implications for the rest of our lives. most of us will probably die living in the political order that will emerge out of this election.

Book cover for This Land, with a woman singing on a handdrum and a little boy, with ancestors in the sky.

In very exciting news, my first children's book, This Land, is available for pre-orders today! The book is about a kid learning that all land in the Americas is Indigenous land. It's also illustrated by an amazing Anishinaabekwe, Bridget George.

This is one of the things that gives me hope - these numbers are too huge now for the dominant culture to write everyone there off as being 'pro-terrorist'... that trick doesn't work anymore, and that's a new development

Truly a historic and phenomenal accomplishment by abortion organizers

I am seeing it now! Ian mentioned you had to have at least one post, so I had to stop being a lurker. Half joking about the cat feed, I just needed something to post 😂
