a few things I want people to get from this:
-how tense it is here. I was death-gripping the steering wheel during this, even watching it makes me tense up
-how organized the community is. the rapid response networks are ENORMOUS and highly effective
-how completely the city is united against ICE

Federal agents left a Mexican restaurant in St. Paul on Jan. 11 as patrons shouted at them, saying they weren't welcome and needed a judicial warrant.
In a post on Facebook, the restaurant thanked customers who "stood strong and protected our community."

Yes, JD. Let’s ask them if they think a stay at home mom, avowed Christian, and widow of a veteran deserved to be shot in the face and left to bleed out in her own car after dropping her 6-year-old off at school, for the crime of looking out for her neighbors. Let’s ask everyone running for office.

Excellent, damning analysis of the video of the killing of Ms Good, from the NYT, including a quick debunking of the “evidence” the President showed other Times reporters last night.

Video: Videos Contradict Trump Administration Account of ICE Shooting in Minneapolis
An analysis of footage from three camera angles shows that the motorist was driving away from — not toward — a federal officer when he opened fire.

At least when a team gets into a playoff setting, you confront the possibility that tomorrow, the season will be over. It kinda hits different when you were not expecting a game to dramatically lower the ceiling of possibility. Snowstorms that weren't in the forecast cause greater havoc.
