I'm at the scene where ICE abducted multiple people from Lincoln and Foster this morning.

A WGN producer was among the people taken, allegedly because she was among a group of bystanders who tried to intervene. ICE agents hit this car while making their getaway.

The bit about MPD being present was confirmed by three neighbors. Jacob Frey continues to lie and O’Hara continues to help ICE. Neighbors assumed at first it was a car crash based on how the squads and SUVs were parked.

I started calling and texting anyone I had phone numbers for in the neighborhood. One neighbor said she saw two MPD squads slowly rolling through earlier. Other neighbors would report later that it was two unmarked SUVs, two chargers, and two MPD squads taking part in this.

Update: Logan has been located after drone and dog search. I have no other details at this time but thank you so much for sharing out!

Amazon has sold out of frog suits. Portland pivots to Yoshi instead.

OK #Minneapolis, hit up those #SpiritHalloween shops and stock up on Inflatable Costumes. But I still think someone needs to hunt down that #PeteEPeeCup costume too. You know they are coming here.

This is awesome.

So this IL Hospital Association memo describes an incident where ICE detained a US citizen, gave them HEART PROBLEMS, took them to a hospital where the fought with medical personnel, then left when they realized they detained a CITIZEN.

I am writing this because it has swiftly become crystal clear to me that many people have no idea what is happening or how this works. Here is a thread for non-academics to put into context what just happened to Dr. Mark Bray, a fellow historian.

Fed Governor Christopher Waller: "Job growth has probably been negative the last few months. it doesn't look like it's doing much better. I don't hear anybody with big hiring plans."

'RIFs have begun.' Vought announces start of mass firings during government shutdown The White House budget office said Friday that mass firings of federal workers have started in an attempt to exert more pressure on Democratic lawmakers as the government shutdown continues.

Russell Vought has announced that "mass firings [RIFs] have begun."

Lawless. The RIFs in the spring were illegal, as Judge Illston outlined. Yes, the conservative SCOTUS supermajority lawlessly signed off. But the Calvinball Court is not doing law.

Congress can stop this. A thread: 1/

Seeing pictures of an abandoned tamale cart in Pilsen where ICE took a tamale street vendor. Those photos of left behind carts are so haunting. Community members disappeared. Not just vendors but people who have long standing relationships with the community and people.

And having Repulican-owned election tech firm owning Dominion is one of the last dominoes to fall.

Medcalf: Why KMOJ Radio’s fight to survive matters For decades, the Minneapolis station has been a vital hub for Black Minnesotans.

Gah! I missed that KMOJ is in danger! #Minneapolis check out this column in the Strib about the funds they're trying to raise for a new, permanent building

Hey Minnesota: ICE is now on the ground in NE Minneapolis. See thread. Stay alert everyone!

Neighbors resist ICE and win in Holland, Minneapolis.

Got to talk with @mccollum.house.gov about health insurance, the ACA, and the shutdown this morning. As small biz owners, our (already expensive!) health insurance premiums will be spiking up 20% next year unless ACA tax credits are restored. Ppl in other states will see up to 300% increases.

And they want to cut back on OSHA inspections MORE? These keep happening because they have not been doing the kind of oversight of workplace safety conditions as they should. www.wistv.com/2025/10/10/1...

Won't stop them, they'll make up a threat.

Emmer has been one of the least effective members of Congress. He always gets the second place status majority whip. He’s a blight on Minnesota. He’s also a thug. And this guy, crypto King Tom, has done nothing for his constituents.

This recent thread on an unlikely sequence of events that happend to my Frosthaven group is pretty relevant. Hitting on three consecutive 25% chances has only a 1.6% chance of occurring, which is essentially how a parlay works.

Super Tacks rule! Also, if someone on the @nhlbruins.bsky.social hasn't created Minten's Mittens yet, they are doing marketing wrong.

China’s Mission to Quit American Produce Takes It to Africa After avocados from South Africa, honey from Tanzania and mutton from Madagascar, it’s Angola’s turn to ink lucrative deals with Beijing.

China’s quest to wean itself off US farm produce is taking it to more and more places. Read Business of Food newsletter here:
