Elon Musk has publicly claimed he never visited Epstein's island and barely knew the man.

New documents show Musk emailing Epstein in Dec 2013: "Is there a good time to visit?"

Epstein: "always space for you"

This was 5 years after Epstein's 2008 conviction and sex offender registration.

A large crowd protested ICE in the plaza between Minneapolis city hall and the Hennepin county building

Oh look, it's Melania emailing Ghislaine, praising a profile of Jeffrey Epstein, and signed Love, Melania.

CNN in Minneapolis: We are seeing thousands and thousands of people, we've been standing on the corner here for the past ten minutes. This this crowd has not let up. It's just continuous.

So if I’m understanding this sequence correctly, from Thanksgiving to Christmas 2012, Elon Musk was essentially pestering registered sex offender Jeffrey Epstein to throw him a wild party on the island.

This right here is the beginnings of the result of what DOGE was really up to. Not *really* slashing stuff, but getting access to as many government citizen databases and joining them to be able to target people quickly and comprehensively across all their exposure to the federal government.

This is surreal

Now: Bruce Springsteen sings “Streets of Minneapolis” in Minneapolis

statement from anika bowie, st. paul city council member, on the arrest of her husband jamael lundy this morning by federal agents for the protest at a church in st. paul led by an ICE agent. she calls his arrest “militarized and traumatic”

The protection racket regime Bondi's letter puts the quiet part on paper.

"Bondi is a buffoon for sending this letter, but it represents nothing less than a complete fracturing of federalism. The administration is saying in no uncertain terms that it will rain violence, financial deprivation, and sham investigations on a state unless it does what Trump wants."

Recall that Melissa Hortman and her husband were murdered not long ago by a fake cop who showed up at their door looking like this guy

Do not underestimate how much this context adds to these arrests for Minnesotans.

We lost one of our treasured leaders last year because she was tragically murdered and the tactics are being repeated. bsky.app/profile/atru...

A new heartland economy based on ICE warehouses and AI data farms.

these people are just fucking terrorists, man. they are just terrorizing our community in every way. get them the fuck out of here

If anyone has contact information of the family who’s father was kidnapped by ICE at the McDonald’s in Bloomington (Southtown Center) please let me know. His son went into the Whipple building to make sure his dad got his heart medication. 1/

Sign on a lamp post reads: it is working. We are winning. Don’t give up now. Ice out. Justice for our dead. A raised fist and the state outline of MN.

This is so unhinged

It really should be the whole state because it’s not just here in Minneapolis taking a stand or experiencing this occupation. I hope people looking from the outside realize that too, even if the two murders (so far) have occurred in Minneapolis.

“The Nation” Nominates Minneapolis for the Nobel Peace Prize With their resistance to violent authoritarianism, the people of Minneapolis have renewed the spirit of Dr. King’s call for “the positive affirmation of peace.”

As longtime observers of struggles to establish peace and justice in the US and around the world, The Nation is honored to nominate the city of Minneapolis and its people for the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize.

‘Nothing has changed’: Minneapolis on edge despite Trump’s de-escalation vow The departure of Greg Bovino has not quelled ICE’s raids – and hope that tensions are easing feels distant

I had a chance to talk to @theguardian.com about how nobody in Minnesota is being fooled into complacency by seemingly empty words from the president. The work doesn’t end until ICE is out and there’s true accountability for the immense harm that has been done.

‼️This famous photo from the Minnesota Tribune on Jan. 21 is from this incident, involving at least three of the same agents from Alex Pretti's killing.

Thanks to the people replying who tipped me off to this.

It’s genuinely a complete media failure that major news outlets ran thousands of stories giving Americans false hope that Donald Trump would lower credit card interest rates.

It was a political lie to blunt voter anger about the economy — and the press helped sell it.

YOU TELL THEM ROSE NYLAND 😭😭😭💜💜💜

Minneapolis firearm instructors see surge in interest amid ongoing turmoil Five firearm instructors in the Minneapolis area said sign-ups for safety training, which is required for permit holders, have grown in the past two weeks.

“Most are people afraid of ICE."

this is why it’s important that the media doesn’t make it seem like ICE are just in minneapolis. it’s all over minnesota

brainerd is two hours north of the twin cities, not a huge city at all. and they showed up for a vigil to support these workers
