Really enjoyed our conversation with Morris Duggan coming off him signing a contract extension. Really thoughtful guy. He’s had a wild journey to find himself here with #MNUFC written in pen in our starting lineup.

ICE officers getting paid for standing around doing nothing while TSA employees work without pay is a pretty succinct summation of where we're at right now

There is no constitutional right of law enforcement to detain me, throw me to the ground, and then put five bullets in my back while masked and unidentified. There is a right to vote.

The gestapo (theoretically) leaving with their tails tucked between their legs is NOT the same as returning our neighbors, fixing our communities, paying serious reparations, and making sure those fuckers face justice for their crimes. But, boy does this feel (cautiously optimistically) good

A desperate plea sent to me by a Minneapolis resident who's been on the front lines since the beginning of the ICE occupation:
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.

ICE enforcement in MN continues to be so harmful, illegal, & just stupid. In last 2 days, I’ve personally witnessed: -6 ICE vehicles stop someone on 35W, detain them for 30+ min, & then release them 1/3
9 federal agents on 35W around a vehicle they pulled over. There were 4 other federal vehicles behind this and additional agents as well. They let the person go after 30+ minutes. Causing trauma & harm & spending tons of tax $ to do it.

74% of Democrats support abolishing ICE, with 53% *strongly* supporting it, according to YouGov polling from last month. Weak calls for "reform" are coming from *elected* Democrats like Chuck, not the average Democratic voter.

The arrests of Don Lemon and Georgia Fort, plus the New York Times story about using facial recognition to take away PreCheck and Global Entry from observers, reveals how closely linked these two missions are. There is no separating ICE’s twin missions of ethnic cleansing and ideological terror.

Not feeling that TACO-surrender-pivot vibe. Maybe Senate Democrats should include ICE and CBP exiting Minnesota (and everywhere else that doesn't want them) as one of their conditions to pass the DHS funding bill.

A reminder that ICE hasn’t slowed down in Minneapolis at all. Outside of Minnesota, it might feel like everything has changed since Alex Pretti’s murder. But ICE hasn’t actually lost any power and they’re continuing to terrorize our communities.

Something important to understand about ICE thugs in the Twin Cities is that they're harassing innocent kids and parents at bus stops and schools every single day. Even after the Pretti shooting. It's terrorism.
