This really changes nothing since the remaining ICE agents will continue their terror campaign, but it might be the sign of a crack in the dam?
Tom Homan, The White House official in charge of the Minnesota immigration enforcement surge, said he is drawing down the number of federal agents in the state.
“Effective immediately, we will drawdown 700 people — effective today,” Homan said at a press conference Wednesday morning.

Minneapolis is trying out new forms of resistance. They're doing pop-up blockade block parties. This one is on Cedar and 34th, a main route into the city. They have a stereo, food & a fire. MPD is present but not interfering. Lots of honks of support. ICE agents have been reported detouring around.

"Saying he cannot support the national GOP's 'stated retribution on citizens of our state, nor can I count myself a member of a party that would do so."

I guess we’ve officially reached the Barricade stage of revolution.
People are definitely setting up a barricade of trash cans and this couch, in the middle of the street where ICE is.
"That's my couch," said a woman standing nearby. "It's been on my porch for four years because it won't fit up the stairs. My neighbor will be pleased it's gone now."

🚨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional!
ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth and private conversation.
