Pursued by federal agents, suburban ICE observers remain resolved After a frightening pursuit by federal agents, suburban ICE observers say fear hasn’t stopped them from protecting their communities.

ICE watch has been life-changing: “I feel like our whole lives as Minnesotans...it’s always kind of like, ‘Don’t even start that kind of thing because you have to live around these people. I feel that’s gone in me personally — I don’t even care if I ruffle feathers.” www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

Piece of dirt.

In a sane world, the decision by Rufo, Vance, & co. to slander and slap a target on the traumatized, hardworking immigrants who revitalized a rust belt city -- and who *were invited* to that city -- would be a stain on their careers that they never live down.

They should be reminded of it. Often.

Sen Chris Murphy: A UAE investor secretly gave Trump 187 million dollars and his top Middle East envoy 31 million dollars. And then Trump gave that investor access to sensitive defense technology that broke decades of national security precedent

Days after Secretary Noem took office, she purported to "vacate" decisions by Secretary Mayorkas to extend TPS for Venezuela and Haiti — even though the law says repeatedly that TPS, once granted, lasts until it expires.

The 9th Circuit says she had no authority to do that.

Good to see that many Dem elected officials now want to be seen getting involved in the cases of immigrants who have been wrongly detained by ICE.

Let's spare a word for @vanhollen.senate.gov, who did this for Kilmar Abrego Garcia back when wise pundits said this was politically dangerous.

What the rest of the country needs to know is those days don’t exist in Minnesota right now. Every single day we hear about them terrorizing one of our neighbors, tear gassing the helpers, and driving around our city like maniacs

He'd make a more compassionate, motivational president than the one we have now.

Accountability for ICE and CBP However bad you think the corruption and misconduct at ICE and CBP is — the reality is far far worse.

I testified Friday before Gov. Pritzker's commission studying abuses of ICE and CBP and tried to explain how the agencies went so far off track. It's actually way worse than I ever realized. Please read and share my testimony as Congress considers reform: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/accountabi...

4 federal agents pull over an elderly US citizen for the suspected crime of being brown, break her car window, throw her to the ground, then drive off after they find her US Passport in her purse. The Salem Police, when called, say there’s nothing they can do. www.salemreporter.com/2026/01/31/u...

First they went for the immigrants, then they went for…the sign makers?? Does Trump know he can go on Amazon and find 10,000 versions of anti-trump signage?

Trump’s America 2026. Masked armed men in body armor arresting journalists in the night.

We’re truly going back to the 1930s.

My almost 90 y/o mom was right when she moved back to Austria this year: “I grew up under fascism, I don’t need to die under it” 😳

🚨TONIGHT’S PROTEST IN MINNEAPOLIS IS INSANE:

CNN is STUNNED. Share this widely!

“I've covered many protests… I've not seen a crowd like this before.” It’s 8 degrees. “It is freezing, but nothing, nothing is stopping these people.”

This isn’t a rally. It’s a movement. @calltoactivism.bsky.social

The weather is crazy here right now but Chicago always shows up!

I certainly would not have been able to write my story about all the bravery I witnessed in Minneapolis without the access I was given! bsky.app/profile/whst...

The local rapid response policy, which I first learned today when I was permanently removed, is “No press allowed ever.” I just think this is incredibly short-sighted and almost intrinsically self-defeating. Who are we observing FOR?

This is a lie. No one has asked me to stop anything. Literally last night my congresswoman told me to keep doing what I was doing. The first I heard that I should stop was TODAY, when I was removed.

Wow, jeez Louise, you mean I’m
safe? Thanks so much for the low bar, I mean, strong legislative argument, that confirms American citizens
have a constitutional right…to live in America? Congrats. Cutting edge negotiating point, and tough to defend. But sure you’re up to this daunting task.

i understand why people don’t want to talk to the press now, but will being willing to do so helps get the story out from someone who feels safe doing so. rep brad tabke is also doing a lot of anti ICE work openly under his name and i think this takes the heat off others who don’t want attention

“Imagine if a gang of armed “civilians” beat the shit out of someone” who was a police officer after they got access
to that officer by breaking the windows out of the Capitol.

Oh, wait.

I guess MAGA claimed that person deserved being shot 10 times for that.

Oh, wait.

“Your words were so hateful and they caused us to kill you”

"Who's city is it Chief?
Bovino: "It's our fucking city."

And that, in a nutshell, is the problem. It is not a democracy when men with guns and uniforms believe they have more control over a city than its residents.

We’re just not a free country.

Any American watching this play out between regime forces and journalists overseas would recognize it for what it is.

I think Minnesota could do a lot worse for a tourism slogan than "Minnesota: we treat Nazis like Nazis"

This is Brad Lander doing pulltabs in the Uptown VFW. He’s one of us now

ICE goon in Minneapolis: "You raise your voice, I erase your voice."

I’m at the Wolves game and random audience members have ICE OUT signs, because that’s just deep Minneapolis culture now

To Gregory Bovino: This is what brandishing a firearm at a protest looks like.
