New research with @aaronsojourner.org of the @upjohninstitute.bsky.social posted on @northstarpolicy.org's blog. We find that Operation Metro Surge caused declines in employees working, hours worked, and businesses open, leading to an estimated $106 million wage loss for Twin Cities workers.

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.

Jfc. Senator John Hoffman reports ICE took the owners of crumbs and coffee in BP this morning and left the building unlocked with money on the counter.

This morning I went to have breakfast at Crumbs and Coffee in Brooklyn Park.
Instead, I walked into a dark café with the door standing open. Money sat on the counter. Coats were still draped over booths.

I called the police to secure the building.

I then spoke with Mayor Winston, who confirmed that ICE had just conducted a raid. The two owners of Crumbs and Coffee were taken. Customers had been told to leave moments earlier, warned of a supposed emergency.

These are small business owners. Taxpayers. People who invested in our community, created jobs, and served their neighbors every day.

Since when are they considered the “worst of the worst”?

This isn’t right.
And it’s not who we should be targeting if we care about safe, strong communities.
