An organizer from one of the largest food distros during OMS was recently stopped and arrested for an alleged busted tail light and is facing deportation. I’m so sad and furious. The organizer of this fundraiser is a friend of mine. Help if you can, babes. gofund.me/4962797c4

Is there anything more cynical than Barack Obama, Deporter-in-Chief and architect of family separation, thanking Minnesotans for standing up to the machine he helped build? Honestly shame on anyone who heard that and felt good.

When you say "it's not about immigration," you are stripping the violence of borders out of the conversation, and that's a mistake. We are experiencing the endgame of late capitalism amid climate collapse. Everything's about determining who will have access to resources and the means of survival.

I hate to be like this, but Monarca is not some scrappy leftist collective. They're Unidos, a 19 y/o nonprofit that's had wandering missions and allegiances over the yrs. Monarca did vital, powerful work training observers and coordinating community response to ICE. They're also run by center libs.

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.

If ice is out, rounding up immigrants, that’s a different threat! I hate these jackboot thugs as much as anyone else, but getting details right has effects for how the community can respond. Also, don’t yell at people when you’re sitting at home

Mpls moderates: The fact that Fateh came in 2nd is evidence he could NEVER have won. Also Mpls moderates: The fact that Davis was knocked out in round 2 cause he had no mathematical path to victory proves he WOULD have won.

Must be so hard to be a moderate in mpls. All you want to do is vote good, but the Left forces you to vote Frey by organizing around who they agree with... if only it were possible to organize your own thing.

this analysis is strange in that it doesnt answer the fundamental question about Minneapolis voters - if Frey's multiple lies and polarizing ways were truly against their values and they were tired of it, why did they not choose Davis? www.startribune.com/jacob-frey-r...

2. Blaming the far-left for rallying around a candidate who matched their values is dumb. It wasn’t like they didn’t support the slate. 3. The real blame might be folks a lot like Eric Roper, or me … center-lefties. We never recovered from Koski leaving to lift up Davis/Hampton. We had no juice.

New, w/ @mulchy.bsky.social & @djbyrnes1.bsky.social: ICE shot & killed an immigrant in the Chicago suburbs yesterday. Then they immediately gave a misleading account of events. Chicago erupted in chaos and a father who lived here for decades is dead. This is what really happened:

What happened to Silverio Villegas-Gonzalez
Immigration agents shot and killed an unarmed 38-year-old father outside Chicago on Friday—and their initial narrative of events was quickly disproven by videos captured by witnesses.

One way to think about it: The fundamental difference between being an immigrant and being a US citizen is that immigrants can be arrested, detained and deported for civil violations of immigration law. Deportation is not a criminal penalty, it is a civil remedy for the civil violation.

Think about this: If you're the president, you have the power to FREE NEARLY EVERYONE IN FEDERAL PRISON. The fact that Biden has so far granted only 25 pardons and 132 commutations, despite receiving thousands of clemency petitions (1,296 for pardons and 10,567 for commutations) is UNCONSCIONABLE.
