Heck yeah, I'll RT this cool lichen
Gorgeous!
Statement on unlawful assembly, arrests at Whipple Building: This morning, our deputies issued dispersal orders at an unlawful assembly outside the Whipple Building after individuals blocked roadways, blocked access to local businesses, dumped glass into the street, and threw rocks, ice chunks and water bottles at law enforcement creating a serious public safety hazard. Arrests are being made. Freedom of speech and peaceful assembly is a right. Endangering the public is not. Unlawful activity including blocking roads, intentionally creating hazards and assaultive behavior will not be tolerated.
From what I saw today firsthand it was the sheriffs today constantly escalating at people protesting peacefully. The sheriffs were masked up like ICE while working hard to agitate and provoke the residents they were sworn to protect, all so they could provide security for ICE who murders people.
If I were a head of state, I would think setting a precedent that assassination is a legitimate tool of state competition would be unwise

ICE was the quarry target this morning and then driving dangerously through northeast & downtown.
ICE is still very much here and we need to make sure we still have people out keeping watch for our neighbors.

Loved it. #weirdbooks #booksky
Wow.
ICE using the same ruse that Ted Bundy used to kidnap people should tell you something.
I donβt believe anything they say, is the thing
Someone was abducted at 10 AM by ICE on Central Ave. Their coworker says theyβve lived here for over 20 years, are documented, and have 3 kids who were born here.
Donβt be fooled by headlines when theyβve been lying to us the whole time. We still need you out patrolling until every agent is gone.

As Minnesota's senior senator runs to replace Tim Walz as governor, her votes and positions on Trump, ICE, and labor should be disqualifying to progressive voters.
Another classic post-Homan day where around school dismissal time we get a flurry of ICE vehicles all across our neighborhoods. Today one vehicle led an observer to their own home and pointed at it. This is a sick game to them, but we wonβt be intimidated and we wonβt stop until DHS is abolished.

A useful re-read from @haymarketbooks.org in this moment when everything is dire and it's so necessary to imagine and build. #booksky
Everything youβre hearing from the Trump administration is a lie. Today was one of the most active days in Northeast since the entire Operation Metro Surge began.
Nothing is changing on the ground in Minneapolis, no matter what headlines Trump and Homan try to create.

A lot of Dems are going to take Bovino and Noem being fired as the finish line, and it's very important to make it clear to them that it is a starting line

cannot tot up the levels of dumb that is "invade MPLS in the winter." Not only do we all thrive in these conditions, we build ART INSTALLATIONS in them.
Screenshot of Startribune article with the headline: Counterprotestors prevented Jake Lang from burning Qur'an. "Right wing influencer Jake Lang planned to burn a Quy'an outside Minneapolis City Hall at 1pm as part of his anti-Islam rally, but counterprotestors said they were not planning to let him do that."
If a Minnesotan says to you, "I don't plan to let you do that," run.
For you out of towners, I need to point out:
βοΈ Powderhorn Park is in the center of one area of recent heavy ICE activity
βοΈ Itβs right by where Renee Good was murdered
βοΈ With the wind, itβs a bit cold today in Minneapolis
And yet South Minneapolis, doing its thing!
Morning.
