βIβm scared he wonβt come backβ: Father with infant arrested by ICE at Chelsea courthouse
The Chelsea courthouse spiraled into chaos Monday morning, as ICE detained two men βΒ one, a young father with his baby and wife β and advocates raced to stop a third.
βA 4-month-old infant rested in a young manβs arms as he sat beside his wife in the lobby of Chelsea District Court on [February 9] β moments before plainclothes and uniformed ICE agents closed in around the family.β

On Nov. 16, a mental health counselor recorded in Kamillaβs medical records that her mother reported the girl had lost her appetite after being βserved food that contained worms.β
A week later, the couple said, children were told to gather in the gym for what they believed would be a Thanksgiving celebration. Excitement spread as families saw tables set with turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, they said. The children waited expectantly. But when a parent asked when the celebration would begin, Oksana said, staff told them the holiday meal was for employees, not detainees.
The children, she said, watched despondently as the feast was packed away.
On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.
The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.
But the food wasnβt for detainees β it was for the staff.

In my reading of these events, Rep. Khanna is having to read names on the floor since the DOJ hasnβt complied with the law. There is nothing permitting the redaction of non-victims except and active investigation. So, doesnβt matter that they werenβt connected, they shouldnβt have been redacted.

Just a quick update from the Twin Cities. (Please forgive the unsolicited message). THINGS ARE NOT BETTER IN MINNEAPOLIS. The media is mostly moving on, Trump is focused on other stuff, BUT NOTHING HAS CHANGED ON THE GROUND. More than 2,000 DHS thugs continue to roam the streets, abducting people 24/7, assaulting legal observers with impunity, and routinely denying 1st, 4th, and 5th amendment rights. Drones and helicopters are overhead every day. Hundreds and hundreds of terrified families have not left their homes since mid-December ... relying on the community to bring them food and help with rent and other necessities. (Those people are NOT violent drug cartel sex offending murderers, as DHS would tell you. Most are legal residents or citizens.) If anything, things have just become more stressful and intractable (think trench warfare as a suitable metaphor): The resistance is better organized and numerous, but DHS has become more clever and better at disguise... and the county sheriff's office is increasingly supporting them . Do not let anyone tell you that Homans (the new person in charge of the occupation) is making anything better. Do not let anyone tell you that 700 ICE agents leaving the city has made much of a difference; the remaining force (again, ~2,000) is still larger than the entire city's police force (which is legally unable to do anything). Please call your congressional reps ... especially if there is any chance the administration might listen to them.
A desperate plea sent to me by a Minneapolis resident who's been on the front lines since the beginning of the ICE occupation:

That said, I think their focus will be on familiar methods: aggressively erroneous voter roll purging, limited polling location and resources for D-leaning districts, mail-in ballot restrictions, etc. Theyβre going to be taking advantage of the SS & IRS data theyβve exfiltrated to data firms & musk.
