Former academic. I’ve moved from Iowa to Wisconsin to Minnesota over four decades—the Midwestern hat trick. Glad to finally be home in a blue state.
Today on errands there was a homemade sign on the side of a main road that marked the spot were a person was kidnapped by ICE. Like those car accident markers on the highway. It broke me

I always thought when your government inevitably built concentration camps for you that you would care more. I thought you’d know that even his supporters would be in danger. I thought much too highly of you.
Love,
God

Don’t be fooled by headlines when they’ve been lying to us the whole time. We still need you out patrolling until every agent is gone.
Justice isn’t ICE leaving Minnesota.
Justice is ICE being held accountable for murdering Americans.
