ICE recruit: “Like a lot of vets, he had trouble assimilating into the civilian world. “After 6mos, I was like, ‘I want to be around like-minded people.’ ” He got into law enforcement.

“I like that instant gratification of Hey, that guy committed this crime, he’s not even supposed to be here,”.
Laura Jedeed on applying for a job with ICE: "I expected them to Google me, and they didn't ... they sent me a final job offer ... what's disturbing is we don't know who is wearing these masks with guns in our city. We don't know if they have domestic violence convictions."

We face a choice: Protect living libraries of life & climate stability, or trade them for fleeting profit. A centuries-old forest is not a crop; it's a legacy. Its destruction is ecocide. #Forests #Biodiversity
I know people on Bsky know this but I hope it filters out: The feds are OCCUPYING the Twin Cities. This is a blockade, a siege. They are shutting down economic and civic activity. They are conducting "papers please" stops. They are criminalizing being a bystander/witness.

You could be next.

Oh, the Hmong who helped the US fight in Vietnam? “…the resettlement of many Laotian and Hmong refugees and asylum seekers in the US, especially former Hmong veterans and their family members who served in the "US Secret Army" in Laos during the Vietnam War.”

I cannot emphasize how much “be the news” is the opposite of what I was taught about how to be a good journalist and strikes me as an excellent way to churn out elite solipsism that has nothing to do with the public interest and everything to do with self promotion www.nytimes.com/2026/01/13/b...

This! ICE grossly miscalculated on the number of non-citizen Somali targets (5%) and don’t want to take the L, so they are just acting up and causing mayhem
Frey: "I think the initial impetus to come to MN was to arrest & deport a bunch of Somali people. They got here & realized the Somali people that would be deported are all citizens. Then they turned their ire toward our Latino community & others. These are communities that make Mpls a better place."

🤯😂
I’m working today under art director Evelyn. Evelyn has instructed me to draw squids getting married. She was a strict director but I think it turned out pretty nice.

Almost half the drivers ICE shoot at are US citizens.

Keep in mind normal LEO are trained to rarely shoot at fleeing cars
WSJ investigation: In the past 6 months ICE agents have fired at vehicles 13 times, leading to:

* 8 people shot
* 5 of which were U.S. citizens
* 2 died
* no victims drew a weapon

The playbook: Agents box in a vehicle, block attempts to flee, then fire

A WSJ visual investigation found that the Minneapolis ICE killing is one of 13 incidents where federal immigration agents have used deadly force against civilians in vehicles since July.

Support for getting rid of ICE entirely went from -35 to -8 in one year.

Support for ICE tactics must be deeply underwater

“Uruguay did what most nations still call impossible: it built a power grid that runs almost entirely on renewables—at half the cost of fossil fuels. The physicist who led that transformation says the same playbook could work anywhere—if governments have the courage to change the rules.”
