Pictures of high schoolers protesting in the town square
Hundreds of high schoolers in Northfield walked out of school and to our town square in support of our immigrant neighbors and against the ICE occupation of our state. I’m so unspeakably proud of them (especially of the head organizer who is one of the teens from my parish.) 🕯️
It will become increasingly important for people to take video and protect and save that video so that when there is finally an accounting for what’s happening, there will be evidence.
When you’re not the good guys in the story
I agree with her
At one point today, there were 283 Minnesota attorneys doing a training on how to file emergency habeas petitions to keep our neighbors from being shipped out of state and held indefinitely.
That would be the second largest law firm in the state. And that training was just put together this week.
Any one of us could be detained for hours by ICE despite being a U.S. citizen.
Any one of us could be in the next apartment building that ICE raids in the middle of the night.
Any one of us could be the next to be brutalized by ICE for speaking out.
Authoritarianism hurts all of us.
I think it’s basically time to retire the peace prize because it really is meaningless at this point. Another 100+ year-old tradition cheapened, wrecked, and discredited by the gauche garish gangster.
Trump will be tried for crimes against humanity and war crimes. This is a real thing!
Today, it’s not your vote that determines whether the government brutalizes you or sends officers to your door. It’s your neighbors’ vote.
If you’re ok with this happening to Minnesotans, don’t get comfortable. You won’t be exempt for long.
In the end, a lawless administration comes for everyone.
The whole idea of trump accepting the Noble Award is the equivalent of me and the wife going to the local Goodwill, finding a championship bowling trophy from 1987, buying it and putting it on my fireplace mantel, and claiming I won…Meaningless…Textbook narcissist…
Anyone travelling to Washington to do a deal with Trump will be bringing boxes of coloured glass beads and other shiny things.
Maybe a mirror too
United Airlines made over $3.1 billion last year. Instead of reaching a fair deal with its flight attendants, United paid its CEO almost $34 million and provided over $162 million in stock buybacks to shareholders.
United must respect its flight attendants and reach a deal NOW.

ICE is the crooks and need to be deported from our country!
This shouldn't require saying, but we highlight polls at a time like this because 1) it's heartening to see the American people rejecting fascism, which inspires more to join; and 2) because Ds are under pressure from certain quarters NOT to engage, so we need to let them know what the people want.
yes
Observation:
Damage Report, Year 1
When people leave the country,
jobs vanish,
Schools turn into shooting scenes,
Measles comes back,
Women die giving birth,
Cops shoot civilians with no accounting — that’s not chaos.
That’s policy doing exactly what it was designed to do.
“Show your papers” is Apartheid.
I’m seeing posts from people (outside of MN) about how US citizens should carry their passports.
And let me say that *inside* MN, we are calmly responding to requests with: “No, I don’t have to show you any documentation.”
Because that’s how you protect everyone, regardless of immigration status.
Grinning like a 5-year old getting his participation trophy at the post-season T-ball pizza party.
He had multiple opportunities to prevent this and deliberately pissed them away.
