Respectfully Amanda this is pig ignorant bullshit and we have plenty of actual local journalists who would be all over the story if the 3k "deployed" were raiding Cargill plants in South Dakota rather than terrorizing line cooks in Hermantown. Be for real

You could literally follow the social media of the Minneapolis City Council president and know this is simply not true

Just the bare minimum "investigative" reporting

I know who she is. What expertise do you think she has that would make her statement that 3k agents were not deployed to "the twin cities" (the claim was 3k to mn, not just the metro region!) supportable? To me it sounds like a goofy SWAG by a wildly overconfident journalist, remarkably sophomoric

anyway ICE cars are sighted nonstop, abductions continue at a high rate, and school absenteeism remains about 50% as tens of thousands of families remain in hiding. the city is being economically flattened. aftermath I guess

your points about why and how the media covers what it covers are good but this is meaningless, sorry to say, and grasping for legitimacy by referencing emotional attachment is goofy.

ICE in Minneapolis | Documenting "Operation Metro Surge" Photography from Minneapolis as thousands of federal agents arrive.

Since December i’ve been taking pictures in Minneapolis as thousands of federal agents and officers descended upon my city. Photos regularly get posted on my site first along with many that never make it to social media.

It’s just insane that police cracked down on protestors but the outside agitator was just allowed to leave free.

the mid blackhawks beat writer really jumped out for this one huh

well, no!

large wood butterfly with the words Chinga La Migra painted above it

Chinga la migra! Last day at the Art Shanties; and it's great out there.

an aerial shot of a frozen lake with luminary that spells out MN is greater than ice with a heart that has spirals which is a hmong symbol! The words are surrounded by a circle of people

Lake Phalen last night. East Side Pride!!! Including a Hmong heart. 💛

The biggest issue is that this is simply an ongoing siege. Not a lot has changed on the ground, so the media just kind of moves on to the next thing. There’s more feature stories about various aspects of this resistance and local media has been great, but new news keeps happening elsewhere.

"Full speed ahead to uber-woke, net-zeroist rejoinerism" is the funniest thing a Labour MP has said for some time I'll give it that. It's like a Jordan Peterson quote about Elmo.

"I wouldn't buy green bananas if I were you" is going to live in my brain for years

pausing to imagine how many people might not have known how to spell "question" at the time...alluring

i think the idea is that as long as it's comprehensibly "quebec" then you know what letter is being said

“Triple-tap” here means the IDF bombed the journalists at the hospital and then bombed emergency responders not once but TWICE:

shaking and crying because they asked me if i live on the block and i said no and they said okay Please go down 36th instead and i said okay.....this is just like nearly losing my life in baghdad. don't ask why i was in baghdad it's not important

yes, certainly, accept that some fights are generational and that you may lose or even probably will lose, but "it's not the goal, it's the friends we made along the way" is both stupid and disrespectful to say about any worthwhile political goal. complacency masquerading as wisdom ass nonsense.

it's not every day that you see such a clean synthesis of what's wrong with american leftism

obviously as many people point out no none of our cities are burning but crucially and much more importantly this is a united states congressman who has sworn to uphold the constitution saying the president at will can declare federalism null and void and murder the citizenry to extort it

fwiw there's probably a lot of upside, especially for morale purposes toward the base, to dems taking a more rhetorically aggressive stance even if they technically can't do some of what they're saying

"why'd you post this buzzkill shit" bc unfortunately I'm the kind of leftist who can do math 💔

Wellllll yes but 114k in 1912 is .1% of the population and 100k now is .03% so we could stand to pump those numbers up. But I'll do my part 😤

CoreCivic is a step closer to opening an ICE detention center in Leavenworth. Public hearings start this month. Join us for a protest on 2/10 outside City Hall on the first night of Public Hearings.

CoreCivic is BAD FOR KANSAS

for people who use the word sportsball, today is their super bowl

A sticker says STAY SAFE surrounded by red arrows pointing to the words BUT BE BRAVE. Another sticker says Urgently Castrate ICE with a grapefruit spoon

This bar-bathroom graffiti pretty much sums up the mood in Minneapolis right now.
