“I think it’s absolutely critical that everyone the article by @alexnpress in Jacobin about why all unions need to understand that immigration is central for all unions right now.”
—Sara Nelson, on the May Day Strong mass call just now

Screenshot of a post by Igor Bobic on X.com. It reads: “Tried asking Chuck Grassley, the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, whether it’s appropriate for ICE to enter homes without a judicial warrant. ‘Ask a constitutional lawyer,’ he said. ‘I’m a farmer.’”
"Ask someone else, I am just a U.S. Senator." — Chuck Grassley
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.
Oh my god. Rep. Omar has been the subject of vile, vicious attacks from MAGA since her first days in office, and this is the second violent attack on a Black elected official this week. The MAGA movement is fueling terrifying levels of harassment and extralegal violence.
this little man struggles to deploy the canister for 30 seconds and then throws it directly upwind
So the House is going to vote TOMORROW on the DHS funding bill that includes funding for ICE.
There's a real chance we can get Dems to vote NO on any bill with ICE funding to sink it.
Once it goes to the Senate we likely lose this chance.
24 hours. Go.

Learning that the @DropSiteNews account is suppressed in significant part because of its frequent, accurate coverage of Sudan is so dark People should not be coddled, we shouldn’t assume people can’t handle the truth of what’s happening

Not headline news. No real fuss by Democratic leaders. No calls to censure. No pushback. No questions asked of GOP leadership by the press.
Just totally accepted anti-Muslim bigotry across the board.
"Vast majority of men are only willing to engage in public violence if they feel like the people around them will approve of — and reward them for — that violence. ICE Watch works because it surrounds men seeking approval with people loudly expressing their disapproval."

every single successful general strike in US history has had union backing through the local AFL-CIO
this is the first time it’s been called for since the 1940s
✊ The MRLF, along with our nonprofit arm Working Partnerships, has been rapidly responding to union members, worker center members and other workers in need of immigration-related legal support.

Last Friday, Jan 9, ICE detained a member of the Minnesota Newspaper and Communications Guild.
Since then, he’s been transferred to a detention facility in Texas, where he awaits action on his petition for habeas corpus.
🗣️ ICE is not making us safe.

This is incredible—and much needed. Union members in NYC (and everyone and everywhere else) should find ways to back them up.
This could be the unified Dem position. It is wildly popular. Puts the regime on defense on two fronts at the same time. Good policy, good politics.
this is fucking incredible
This is brilliant. Ice can’t handle ice
protestors have painted what appears to be a tunnel on the side of the mountain, causing ICE agents to run into the mountain at full speed.
disgusting.
In April 2024, Spotify implemented a new scheme: songs with less than 1k streams per year would no longer receive royalties.
The data for 2025 was just released via Luminate, and 88% of songs have been demonetized.
Read it again: 88% of songs on Spotify have been demonetized.
Most of you follow for my art, but I live in Minneapolis right now & I have to tell you how bad things are here now. I'm not sure if what you're seeing on the news really does it justice. It's basically a battle ground on the streets.
ICE detained Arlit Maria Martinez on her way to work. 2 days later, her 15 yo son died of cancer. They wouldn't let her out to say goodbye. The family had planned to move back to Mexico prior to the cancer diagnosis but stayed for his treatment. Now, Mr Martinez has lost his wife to ICE & his son.
ICE slipping on ice

Minneapolis right now—
At 35th and Park, a crowd has gathered after a car crash involving the feds. Agents just launched tear gas and pepper balls at people.
SUNDAY 1/11 at 1pm. Starting from 60th Street & 5th Ave. in Manhattan. No Wars, No Kings, No ICE.
Imperialism feeds fascism, and vice-versa. We need to stand together against both!
In Casablanca (1942) the opening scene depicts nazis demanding to see papers then shooting a man who runs away. However, it’s slightly more complicated because the man wasn’t cooperating and the officer was practicing self defense.
Here is a recent video of ICE agents hitting someone with their car and laughing about it
From @statuscoupnews.bsky.social
before murdering renee good, the ice goon was frightened for his life, we’re told
It’s meant to justify the murder
nobody telling us this ever seems to wonder whether the woman who was murdered might have been afraid for her life
killing because you’re afraid is only for cops, it seems
In case you haven't seen the Jesse Ventura video, see it now:

These Minnesota people — Frey, Walz, Sens Smith + Klobuchar, Keith Ellison, now Ventura — are not fooling around.
