I’m just a Minneapolitan, standing in front of a country, asking them to stop platforming our mayor for swearing on tv about ICE and then doing nothing substantive while antagonizing city council members that are

But see, you have to actually *do things* not simply say things.

This is really it! Getting emergency rental assistance approved helps landlords! Typically, the payments are made directly to them! Back rent of evicted tenants is rarely recovered! If the council moderates actually supported landlords, they'd rush to get this approved. They just hate poor people

minneapolis city council vice president jamal osman says β€œthe people you’re calling agitators, they’re fighting for our people. they’re out there in the cold, sniffing gas, dealing with all kinds of stuff. people have lost their lives… our president calls us garbage. those people are our heroes.”

The mayor of Minneapolis, the same mayor that said β€œICE get the fuck out” is now refusing to sign a unanimous council action to call for a statewide eviction moratorium. Our politicians are servile to the ownership class even during fascism. Call Minnesota state reps today and demand action.

Yesterday, 50,000 Minnesotans peacefully protested to stop the terror being inflicted on our community. Today, ICE shot and likely killed another constitutional observer on the street. I can’t say this clearly enough: Congress has to stop this. The government is killing us. Congress has to act.

We’re out here every day. Watching over our streets. Making sure our kids get to school safely. Delivering groceries to our neighbors. We’re doing everything we can to protect one another.

But it’s not enough. On Friday Jan 23, we shut MN down. No work. No school. No shopping. ICE out of MN now.

Voices of the MN Occupation - Racket A real-time oral history of the ICE assault on Minnesota

We asked Minnesotans to tell us what January 2026 has been like. Here is what 33 of them had to say.

bro there’s a gofundme to crowdfund attorney fees for a preschooler who was kidnapped by our federal government and shipped across state lines and his senator is posting about high school hockey while every other elected official is debating whether to give a zillion more dollars to the kidnappers

guys minneapolis is a living hell today. they've tear-gassed so many people, tear-gassed a park, beaten people up in front of me. greg bovino is rolling around to gas stations and posing in front of them, trying to cause a riot.

Fixed it for you, @nytimes.com. 🫢

Beyond his trailblazing decision to use a bad word, Jacob Frey (and Tim Walz) have done nothing to stop ICE from terrorizing Twin Cities residents.

We keep us safe from ICE. Support TCDSA's resistance work and donate here: buff.ly/rnvJcLx

Do not donate to the DFL. Donate to a GoFundMe for rent or immigration fees, donate to a food shelf β€” use your dollars to help the community, not the state party apparatus. The DFL isn’t gonna save us from ICE. We are all we have

Another thing you should know about the Twin Cities, if you're not here, is that while the mayor and governor tell us to stay calm on TV, our council members and other local electeds are on the street patrolling and protecting neighbors, doing mutual aid, and otherwise serving the community.

In Minnesota, Everywhere Is a Front Line What a federal invasion looks like from the inside.

Tried to describe what life here is like these days, and why, despite it all, I'm optimistic and so, so proud of this community.

Bovino and ICE terrorized Central Ave today and took 2 people, including a legal observer. I’m proud of how Northeast showed up and said clearly get out of our neighborhood and never cone back.
