When the streets start telling the truth, it’s because the institutions won’t.

What’s become painfully obvious is that ICE agents aren’t trained to make us safer. They’re just recruits who thirst for power, violence, and cruelty.

ICE operation shows the difficulty of immigration arrests amid pushback in frigid Minnesota NBC News was granted exclusive access to accompany Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers as they tried to arrest targets in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area.

This article is sympathetic towards ICE but still a good read because it's clear that Minneapolis and Saint Paul are doing AMAZING work (with a little assistance from our weather).

7" of Justin Hinds And The Dominoes - Rub Up Push Up on Island label. Released in 1965. Produced by Duke Reid.

Like Toots & The Maytals, Justin Hinds & The Dominoes also used gospel inspired harmonies to create an unadulterated fever pitch in their ska records, even with very secular lyrics like on this 7"...

Twin Cities Latino, Somali businesses struggling amid ICE's Operation Metro Surge: "What did we do?" Some members of the Twin Cities' immigrant community say Operation Metro Surge is now only striking fear in the Latino and Somali communities, but it's also harming their small businesses.

"Many people say, 'Oh, they're fearful because they don't have papers.' No, that is not correct. They're fearful because they are Latinos being targeted by ICE."

Normalize hiking politeness for winter pedestrianism.

"Hey how's it going!?"

"It's really beautiful up there!"

"Totally worth the walk!"

"I love those boots!"

We're already "Ope just gunna scootch right past ya here"ing.

β€œHow’s the Fall/Winter distributor catalog cover art looking?”

β€œGreat, boss. Made it look like a print ad for discreet menstrual products, just like you asked.”

This is just some ordinary dude no one had ever heard of, quietly getting by, and the administration has decided in a fit of pique to hound him for the rest of his life because otherwise they'd have to tacitly admit they're capricious incompetent villains. Just let him live, ffs

This is unenforceable. No one will track this. It’s pure corruption and we all know the t can be bypassed for a certain price.

Charlie Brown stands in the snow next to a blue doghouse, upon which his beagle Snoopy sits reading a newspaper while eating bones. There is a dog bowl next to the doghouse piled several feet high with long bones of some sort. caption: it’s not Christmas until I see Snoopy eating 37 human femurs.
