Even if ICE/CBP/DHS does stop the invasion of Minneapolis, this ain’t over as I’m sure all y’all know. Historically, fascists have not taken embarrassment very well.
And ICE is about get another huge infusion of cash, from a GOP that eagerly co-signs trashing the constitution.

State Data: Ohio spent more on school privatization last year than public schools in many communities
For example, the state spent about twice as much on charters and vouchers in Columbus than they did on kids in Columbus City Schools -- Ohio's largest school district.

When I got the contract to write a history of concentration camps in 2014, I hoped to keep the US from ending up here. That didn't work out! But now it's critical to understand how much is already in process and the enormity of what's coming. The sooner we act to stop it, the more people we'll save.

A federal judge in Oregon issued a sweeping rebuke of the Justice Department’s nationwide push to seize state voter rolls, ruling that the department can no longer be presumed to be acting in good faith and warning that its conduct threatens voters and states’ rights.
Federal judge rules DOJ can ‘no longer’ be trusted in voter roll crusade
The judge pointed to a letter from Bondi to Minnesota that tied federal immigration enforcement to demands for voter data as the smoking gun.

TrumpRx supposedly helps people pay less for prescription drugs.
In reality, it sends users to pharma giants’ websites, where they can pay out of pocket for certain medications.
One company that could benefit? BlinkRx, which has Donald Trump, Jr. on its board.
Funny how that works.
