Ok Minneapolis law firms, who is going to step up?
25 years of fish fry in South Minneapolis!
poster seen last night on 38th street - “IT IS WORKING. WE ARE WINNING. DON’T GIVE UP NOW. ICE OUT, JUSTICE FOR OUR DEAD!”
“One of the most important things that Buddhists—and interfaith and secular folks—can do in response to this moment is truth-telling: witness and testimony about what is really happening, countering misinformation.” –Felicia Washington Sy
Well, West Virginia enters the Constitutional and rule of law chat.
Just flipping astounding. Now it's time for judges like this doing the extraordinary to move past that to real consequences for lawyers and offices that refuse the rule of law.
literally though, lol. we have for some years now.
collaborating with ICE will leave blood on your hands
Yeah, but were now in the age of AI customer service platforms. You may never find out if the place is open or not because the always chipper voice will misunderstand at least least half your responses and send you down the wrong path.
ACLU MN reported yesterday that the federal government filed sworn statements that there are 970 agents in Minnesota for Operation Metro Surge & that 407 agents will remain here in March. It’s important to note this is on top of the 190 agents that were already assigned before this surge started.

"In Chicago, of 92 people arrested for assaulting or impeding officers last fall, 74 cases have resulted in no charges; in 13 cases, charges were filed and dismissed; and five charged cases were still pending *** As of the end of January, there have been no convictions."
Doesn't that distinguish you as someone who gives a sh*t, as opposed to too many currently serving as AUSA'S?

It ain’t over til Minnesota has ICE’s battle flag
Well.
The Craig staffer in Minneapolis Ward 12 was extremely quiet, almost surreptitious in putting up posters. Couldn't really blame him.
Bodycams are useful at trial.
But the crime has already been committed at that point.
Someone's dead. Or injured. Or degraded, stalked, abused, raped, assaulted, tortured.
And you can't take that back.
This is not a solution to the unchecked inhumanity of ICE. #AbolishICE #FuckICE
What's their protocols? Will there be any accountability for agents who don't comply with those policies.
Predicting that this week we’ll hear more conciliatory words from the Administration regarding Minnesota (since they’re starting to realize that ICE has become politically toxic) but everyone outside of Minnesota needs to know that nothing on the ground has changed.
Happy February! There will be live MLB games this month and every month through October.
As it should.
Noem and Miller
Maybe he can meet with Chris Madel.
Yall outside of MN need to know that observers are STILL out protecting their neighbors. Right now. They know the news and they’re still out there.
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey said the city has only had three homicides so far this year. “Two of them were ICE," he added.
“The relief we are asking for is stopping this Operation Metro Surge” immediately, he said.
Whoa.
