Remember her name: Aliya Rahman
Her testimony is everything and it deserves to be heard, by everyone. Decide for yourself.
It’s powerful. It’s gut-wrenching. And no one should have to survive what she did.
ICE MUST GO‼️

If my caucus was any sort of indication, national Dems really need to wake the fuck up about what voters want them to do about ICE.

Another great Representative, @emmagreenman.bsky.social stopped in and responded to a question about data centers with, "Oh yeah, f*ck them!" She also had inspiring words about our strong democracy and community in MN ❤️

You’re describing an emergency. The world is also watching you and waiting for you to do something.
Are you going to establish an eviction moratorium? Rent is due today.

They’re taking kids from Minnesota and sending them to detention camps. They’re shooting American citizens in the street and locking investigators out of the crime scenes. The world is watching what happens next.
Hundreds of people spelled out the distress signal "SOS" on Bde Maka Ska in Minneapolis on Friday, Jan. 30.

I’m *extremely concerned* about the way folks are reforming their image of the cops in light of everything that’s happening, even though we only have a handful examples of them disagreeing with ICE, while still being responsible themselves for the murders of Black and brown people across the country

This is what it's like to be not white, to be poor, to be on the receiving end of these very American activities in other countries.
I do need white folks to listen, if this is who you need to hear it from. ⤵️

It’s so hard to describe what this is like to people who aren’t here. The ICE/BCP occupation seeps into everything. It’s not just the horror of the big stuff. It’s the little stuff, too: helicopters all night, vigilance during every trip out of the house, guilt at having any downtime at all.
I've personally had barely any ICE encounters. I've done patrolling when I can. And my body is just yelling at me that it's wrecked.
Even doing a little bit is fucking taxing. Everyone doing more is a superhero, and I don't think folks who haven't been involved in an occupation understand the toll.

After the 18 day 4th precinct occupation when Jamar Clark was killed, I got really sick and didn’t bounce back for months, even years. It absolutely contributed to my slide into complete disablement by chronic illness.
Saying this to Minnesotans who might need to start pacing differently.

Not trying to stoke division, but underline a lesson. Remember the high-decibel whining over the years about the Minneapolis City Council expressing solidarity with various oppressed people? ”Stay in your lane!” Remember how sustaining this outside support feels right now as we face the gun barrels.
The march is now passing the Chicago city hall / Cook County hall building. The chant goes up,
"Minnesota don't you fear, we, the people, are right here"

But watching some of our elected officials take turns speaking without corresponding action has made one thing painfully clear: the community is doing the work, and it is not being matched by those elected to serve it.

I’m going to keep hammering this point: the excesses of ICE we see now are entirely contiguous with our system of policing more broadly, and the reason that almost no politician wants to threaten real consequences for ICE agents is because it opens the door to making the same demands of the cops

The "ICE is using military tactics suited for a warzone, not for American streets" rhetoric kinda misses the point that warzones are not naturally occuring. The US military creates war zones from residential neighborhoods and the tactics are not more justifiable just because it's overseas

So, among the the things I got to help with in law school at UMN was putting together questions for a Minneapolis Mayoral Candidate forum in 2017. We made sure to have a question about sanctuary cities, and guess what Jacob Frey said?

To those who condone this and say “they should have just complied,” that mindset is the harm. You are asking people to trust a system that is actively targeting them and criminalizing their existence. Compliance has never been a shield against injustice; it has only made cruelty easier to carry out.
