It's Day 19 of the ICE occupation of MSP.
Today thousands of Minnesotans poured onto Lake Street to rally in support of our immigrant neighbors and against ICE.
Take a moment to look at this crowd of you and your neighbors rallying in below zero windchill.

The faith leaders had stood arms linked and chains across their bodies for hours, starting at 6:30AM.
They sang “If you come for them, you’ll have to go through us.”
Stoles featuring monarch butterflies, a symbol of migration, hung on their necks.

I was lucky enough to catch some tickets to @themountaingoats.bsky.social at the Fillmore in SF last night, and they were fantastic! I managed a couple of recordings; here's the simple but exquisite 'You Were Cool.' Some folks really need to hear this. It's good.
