This! ICE grossly miscalculated on the number of non-citizen Somali targets (5%) and don’t want to take the L, so they are just acting up and causing mayhem
Frey: "I think the initial impetus to come to MN was to arrest & deport a bunch of Somali people. They got here & realized the Somali people that would be deported are all citizens. Then they turned their ire toward our Latino community & others. These are communities that make Mpls a better place."

🤯😂
I’m working today under art director Evelyn. Evelyn has instructed me to draw squids getting married. She was a strict director but I think it turned out pretty nice.

Almost half the drivers ICE shoot at are US citizens.

Keep in mind normal LEO are trained to rarely shoot at fleeing cars
WSJ investigation: In the past 6 months ICE agents have fired at vehicles 13 times, leading to:

* 8 people shot
* 5 of which were U.S. citizens
* 2 died
* no victims drew a weapon

The playbook: Agents box in a vehicle, block attempts to flee, then fire

Videos Show How ICE Vehicle Stops Can Escalate to Shootings
A WSJ visual investigation found that the Minneapolis ICE killing is one of 13 incidents where federal immigration agents have used deadly force against civilians in vehicles since July.

Support for getting rid of ICE entirely went from -35 to -8 in one year.

Support for ICE tactics must be deeply underwater

“Uruguay did what most nations still call impossible: it built a power grid that runs almost entirely on renewables—at half the cost of fossil fuels. The physicist who led that transformation says the same playbook could work anywhere—if governments have the courage to change the rules.”

A wierd story.
Key line:

“Even before Homeland Security made its claims, Portland elected officials warned residents to distrust whatever version of the story the feds offered”
Two shot by ICE officer in Portland, Oregon. “The couple, a man and a woman, were shot by a U.S. Customs and Border Protection officer shortly after 2 pm while in a vehicle near a professional building at Adventist Health Portland.... Their conditions are unknown." www.wweek.com/news/city/20...
Border Patrol Agent Wounds Two People in Portland Shooting
The couple, a man and a woman, were found by police near Northeast 146th Avenue and Burnside Street, and were transported to local hospitals.

Not an exaggeration at all to say that the feeling in Minneapolis is that the entire metro area is being treated as occupied territory by federal agents. Impossible to overstate how overwhelmingly people here do not like it. This does not feel sustainable.
