"Metro Surge" by the numbers. Overall, not a very effective operation and these dummies suck at their jobs.

Sometimes it may look like ideology, but really it’s just staggering stupidity. Every damn time
It’s been a wild morning outside of City Hall – we had two HSI vehicles illegally parked on Minneapolis police parking right next to City Hall. The tow was called and had started being put on the car when the HSI agents arrived in shame, and were booed out by the several people, staff, & CMs.
Don’t talk about how much you support immigrants or want ICE out if you support throwing my community out into the cold.
You’re now responsible for people self deporting, not having enough money to feed their families, and their displacement. You’re just like ICE.
I know they're two very different things but it's still wild that this administration was so surprised to see Minnesotans standing up for neighbors with whistles and Signal chats and then the same administration was like "Now let's attack Iran, surely THEY won't fight back in any way"
Unfuckingbelievable.
South Minneapolis, Lowry Hill neighborhood. Two posters on a post supporting a billboard. Top: A laminated page with large type featuring a Rebel Loon as a watermark. Text: derived from writings of Karis Nemik, The Trail of Political Consciousness, featured in the season finale of Andor season 1, “The frontier of the rebellion is everywhere. The smallest act of resistance pushes our lines forward. The fascist need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear.” Bottom: A Minnesota flag laser loon holding a snake in its beak having sliced the head off with its laser eyes. Text: “Don’t Tread On Us”
You may have read Evan's groundbreaking investigation into Elon Musk's AI power plant last month. Now we've released a 12-minute mini-doc that dives deep into how the plant is affecting local residents — and what happened in Southaven following our initial report.

Today we observed six shackled detainees being loaded onto the ICE Air flight at MSP. They're heading to El Paso, where conditions are so horrific, staff gamble on who the next prisoner to commit suicide will be.
The man walking from right to left at the beginning of the clip is dragging shackles.
Speaking of dehumanization, we've got a new show coming up and we have almost enough to pay all our bills.
This is not a good time to ask for money, but here we are.

“You have to have conversations with your loved ones, saying that we just live in a government system that dehumanizes people,” @jchavezmpls.bsky.social said. "I’m going to make sure that the voices of our community are not left off the table.”

No country in history that has concentration camps has ever wanted to call them concentration camps. That’s who we are now.
Worth 3 minutes. There is no plan. There was no reason for war, other than Trump wanted to do it
Yeah it’d be a good step in the right direction
If you were definitely not running a concentration camp, you might avoid using phrases like “daily burn rate.”
How do we wrap up the 100th Black History Month? For me Black History is every day, but February is the BLACKEST history month.
So I guess I wanna talk Black self-determination throughout our sojourn here.
Believe or not, it starts in 1526.
Sure, 1619 is the year we acknowledge but...

This is amazing.

Radiohead is demanding that the Trump administration take down a pro-ICE promotional video featuring a version of its song “Let Down” without permission.
Full statement from the band:
Lots of activity at Whipple this morning, more than usual. Supposed early morning activity in Saint Paul as well. Head on a swivel.

LGBTQI+ youth are more than 2x as likely to experience homelessness as their peers, and for queer, trans, Black, Indigenous, and other youth of color, those risks are compounded by discrimination and systemic barriers. Hosting is one tangible form of mutual aid and a way to be part of the solution.”
(One of) the next points for resistance
Graph showing how extreme the metro surge was compared to other states
I mean look at this graph. It was an occupation. And all the stress and tension just doesn't go away as things have improved. It takes time for that to unwind and process. Pic from this article in the Strib. www.startribune.com/is-ice-reall...
Today in "neither our media nor our political system is designed to deal with a far right authoritarian party"
Here is a long list of lawless, authoritarian, ongoing things that require his immediate impeachment & removal. What in G-d's name are you talking about here?

Henceforth, I will be describing the way that U.S. men’s hockey spectacularly squandered good will, brand recognition, and fan loyalty as “pulled a Target.”
They pulled a Target.
This is exactly right
