This is an important story by @genoways.bsky.social -- Haitian workers vote 99% "YES" to strike at a meatpacking plant at the same time the end of TPS and their possible deportation hangs over their heads. Intersection of union power and the anti-immigrant crusade is laid bare right here.
A JBS plant’s largely immigrant workforce is refusing to back down after they accuse their employer of poor working conditions.

If you're a business owner who fires someone you have assigned to an overseas job and you don't buy them a plane ticket home you should actually go to prison
Former Washington Post journalists have launched a GoFundMe to help repatriate fired staff members who are effectively stranded in foreign countries.
One of the richest men in the world fired them from the paper and didn’t even pay to ensure they got home.

Got another personal ask that I'm trying to find leads on quickly - a fellow Fil-Am member of the community (& friend) is looking for a new housing situation with private landlords. Just them & their partner, no pets, need to be out by May 1st (and they'll be recovering from major surgery). DM me!

One of the reasons I am *begging* everyone to stop using “Minneapolis” as a synecdoche for the entire Twin Cities metro area is that leads to inaccurate reporting like this. These are Minnesota State Police, who are under the command of Tim Walz, and this is not happening in Minneapolis.

Beautiful.
One of my favorite things about this city is discovering neighbors whose house was not only designed by the same architect, but even has nearly identical interior woodwork.

The reason why DHS can't be reformed is that something like this isn't just the uniformed brutes of ICE & other depts; It's also how many people passively complying with moving the paperwork along and things like that. Too many people who seem to be able to live with themselves after participating.
HAPPENING NOW: DHS just expedited Liam Conejo Ramos' asylum hearing to this morning, meaning it's possible the five-year-old and his family could be deported as soon as today.

Would be great for @ag.state.mn.us or like SPPD or MPD to act on clear violations of state law
We reviewed more than 100 Minnesota license plates attached to immigration enforcement vehicles in recent weeks.
We found that nearly 60% were not registered with the state of Minnesota, including the Chevy Tahoe that federal agent Jonathan Ross traveled in the day he fatally shot Renee Good.

Huh! Seems like a pretty straightforward thing that local law enforcement could address that wouldn't involve starting Civil War II.
