🧵Your regular reminder that releasing children from federal custody is not an endpoint—for Minnesota or for the child. Kidnapping and detention by federal agents is a deep trauma and for all the resiliency of kids, recovery from this atrocity cannot possibly be swift. 1/2

Words like “disruption,” “upheaval” and “radical uncertainty” have become practically synonymous with Minnesota in few weeks. While it’s too early to draw firm, data-driven conclusions, no one is going out on a limb by saying the turbulence right now will exact an economic price on the state.

Minnesota has now been turned into a war zone by a federal government that has lost sight of the values that make America great.

We must impeach Kristi Noem and abolish ICE.

ICE is still in Minnesota. ICE is still breaking down glass windows and doors. ICE is still separating families. ICE is still targeting our neighbors who need to go to work because they cannot afford food, rent, and basic living expenses. 1/

As a reminder, the fucking ICE patrols are still out attacking and detaining people in Minnesota. These actions have not stopped. Hell, it doesn’t really even seemed to have slowed much.

Donald Trump lost the 2020 election. Every court, every audit, every recount proved it. He knows it. Yet he’s spent years bullying officials and poisoning trust in our democracy to prop up a lie.
