OT for an Olympic gold in hockey is the most potent drug in the entire world like how are any of us supposed to survive this especially when it is happening at the same time as the contenders are about to take the ice for Olympic women's free skate

HELP ME

HILARY MF KNIGHT
What a week she is having

The same day DHS announced the surge would end in Minnesota, ICE activity increased in small towns The less densely populated areas outside the Twin Cities make it harder for protesters and observers to organize.

There is no drawdown. There is no retreat. ICE is just redistributing their assets to better avoid accountability.

Honored to talk with Nicole Wallace about how amazing Minnesotans are, and what we need for accountability, rebuilding and repairing

The economic impact of ICE in Minneapolis
-$203 million total economic loss January alone
-$47m per month of income loss to families afraid to go to work
-$81m loss to small biz
-$4.7b in hotel cancelations
-$37.9m loss construction evaluation

Economic Response Fund Grant Guidelines Small businesses in Minnesota that have experienced operational disruptions in recent weeks may now apply for emergency financial support through the Economic Response Fund.

Small businesses in Minnesota may now apply for the Economic Response Fund. This fund will provide short-term stabilization grants to help address urgent needs caused by reduced revenue, workforce disruptions, temporary closures, or security concerns. www.minneapolisfoundation.org/stories/comm...

“They were hellbent on not allowing anybody to help him until he was dead,” she said. “I was right there, and they — all of them — made the decision to deny me access to give him the best possible chance of survival.”

Someone was abducted at 10 AM by ICE on Central Ave. Their coworker says they’ve lived here for over 20 years, are documented, and have 3 kids who were born here.

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.

A screenshot of People Over Papers’ ICE reporting map. The map resets at 4 am ET every day. In Minnesota, over 100 reports have been filed today, with the overwhelming majority in and around the Twin Cities. Stay safe. Fuck ICE.

Still around 100 community reports of ICE activity around the Twin Cities today, the most of any state by far.

In case you’re wondering why so many of us aren’t quite taking Homan’s presser today at face value.

Without hope there are no dreams. A powerful message from James.

Sin esperanza no hay sueños. Un mensaje poderoso de James.

“I was just listening to news that they're going to end it, but at the same time they are still arresting people. It's hard to believe what they're doing.”

The War isn’t over & we’re not done protecting our neighbors.
But tonight? We’re throwing an impromptu party. Come dance. We’ll buy your first round. Fuck ICE.

Cannot believe how far the bar has been lowered but this somehow feels legitimately useful to hear out loud. Because what virtually every single Minnesotan is doing is simply recording, saying words, and possibly using a whistle.

That is virtually ALL anyone is doing as the feds claim "escalation".

Gov. Tim Walz: "They left us with deep damage. Generational trauma. Economic ruin in some cases. The left us with many unanswered questions. Where are our children? Where and what is the process of the investigation into those that were responsible for the deaths of Renee and Alex?"

How many of Liam’s schoolmates are still in detention?

Where are our neighbors?

RON JOHNSON: Did you ever encourage people to go out there and exercise their First Amendment rights?


KEITH ELLISON: I freely admit being in favor of the First Amendment

I'm incredibly grateful for @mnaurorafc.bsky.social community. So proud of @saara7.bsky.social 's leadership. And lucky to call @natepentz.bsky.social a friend. Aurora has not wavered once and has spoken up in a time when so many have their heads in the sand.

Dear neighbor, I am proud of you and our immigrant residents. Your resiliency, strength, and dedication have led to the announcement that “Operation Metro Surge” will end soon. It’s clear that the commitment of our neighbors made it untenable for ICE and federal agents to continue to operate its occupation of our city and state. This isn’t as a result of capitulation from elected leaders. This victory is yours, but we must not stop until ICE is completely abolished, and no more families are ever separated again. I will forever be thankful to those who patrolled, observed, and supported our community with mutual aid and daily tasks during these horrific times. Our community is full of heroes who will always be remembered as caring and loving. There are no words to show how thankful I am of every single one of you who showed up day in and day out. I hope you’ll join me in continuing to carry the whistle of resistance as our work is not done. I am still asking the community to remain cautious and vigilant until we can confirm what this truly means. They said they are not backing down from mass deportation but will be ending the operation in Minnesota soon. I recommend you continue your current plan until we can give you more information. We still need observers and the community to be on the lookout. These “draw-downs” are expected to continue through next week, which means we will still need help now and in the future. Additionally, we must never forget what they did to our neighbors and loved ones. They murdered Renee Good and Alex Pretti, shot Julio Cesar Sosa-Celis in the leg, and kidnapped Victor Manuel Diaz, who then died under ICE custody. We are still mourning, demanding justice, and we will never forget. They targeted our immigrant neighbors and children, discriminated against our community based on skin color and accents, lobbed weapons of war on our parks, and completely shattered families who simply wanted to work, take their kids to schools, and

Never ever been prouder of my beloved @mnaurorafc.bsky.social and the incredible @saara7.bsky.social. If you want to support a team that truly cares for community - season tickets just went on sale! www.nytimes.com/athletic/703...

I’m so proud of our community who are still out here supporting our neighbors. Let me be very clear, when this operation ends, it will be because of the resiliency of our immigrant community, who has shown the world what it looks like to be resilient, and our neighbors who will never give up. 1/
