Pretty wild to be watching the Minneapolis City Council meeting and see the officer who killed Amir Locke presenting about β€œofficer wellness”. Truly no shame.

When you really love your community, you don’t give up on it.

Real ones love the Twin Cities. It’s good to weed the fake ones out.

This definitely isn’t about anyone in particular.

This is the aftermath of an ICE kidnapping a few blocks from my home in St. Paulβ€”an hour ago. A quiet street full of broken glass and at least three wrecked cars. The target of the kidnapping was taken away by ambulance. He was on a stretcher and covered by a sheet, though a cop said he was alive.

We are demanding that lawmakers do their jobs, rein in this lawless administration, and stop the deliberate exportation of chaos into our neighborhoods (and neighborhoods across America). 2/2

It’s deeply disturbing that after all the trauma students, families, and educators endured following the abduction of Liam Conejo Ramos, even now after he has been freed and safely returned to Minnesota someone appears to be making threats against out of anger that a five-year-old is not imprisoned.

It didn't take very long for it to seem entirely reasonable for a mom to hide her identity while speaking to reporters in order to protect her child's school from being targeted by the secret police.

Minnesota v. Noem Judge Katherine Menendez denied a request for a temporary restraining order on Saturday. That's not the end of the story.

Some quick thoughts on yesterday's ruling in Minnesota v. Noem.

The federal occupation of Minneapolis has devastated our small businesses. Particularly, our immigrant-owned businesses.

That’s why I’m working with my colleagues to bring forward a $5 million β€œSmall Business Resiliency Fund” for small businesses impacted by β€œimmigration enforcement”. 1/

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.

Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

Biery is a very unique judge and, having practiced in his court, I had no clue how this case would go. So glad to see this result.

Judge orders 5-year-old boy, his dad be released from Texas immigrant center Federal Judge Fred Biery's ruling criticizes the Trump administration, orders Adrian Alexander Conejo Arias and his son be released while case proceeds.

U.S. District Judge Fred Biery's order, issued Saturday morning, requires that Adrian Alexander Conejo Arias and his son, Liam Conejo Ramos, be released from federal custody while their immigration case proceeds through the court system. Biery's order requires they be released by Tuesday.

one thing being lost in discourse is that rapid response networks are just a tool. they aren’t the end all, be all here. the actual goal is to connect with neighbors! and now with the leaks, they’re not being handed out like they were

go talk to your neighbors to find a chat! or you can make one!

I will believe that ICE enforcement has changed on the ground when I stop getting daily notices that armed, masked goons are circling my kids’ schools and trying to sow fear in the parent patrols.

As a kindergarten teacher, I am beyond tired of watching our neighbors, our community, and our students suffer under this immoral and tyrannical overreach from an out of control federal government.

Today I learned that U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services created a fake appointment to entrap a Minneapolis Public Schools parent while she was with her kindergarten-aged child. I hate that this is not the first time we’ve seen these disgusting tactics.
