Last week, I drove to Minneapolis to spend a few days reporting on the aftermath of Renee Nicole Good's murder for Rolling Stone. What I saw was a city forced to grieve a horrible loss while simultaneously strategizing to protect itself from the ICE reinforcements to come.

Full Story Here:
Minneapolis Is in Mourning. It's Also Very, Very Pissed Off
In the hours after an ICE officer shot and killed Rennee Nicole Good, the city came together — and found a difficult balance of grief and rage.

Big clash this afternoon between DHS agents and protesters in a residential street in Minneapolis, following a DHS agent hitting another vehicle. Tear gas was deployed in people’s yards and agents pepper prayed people.

As I went to bed last night, I couldn’t stop thinking about the same thing.

I hope the rest of the country and the world see/understand just how remarkable & powerful Minnesota’s organizing and community response has been. It has been incredible to witness & an inspiration.
Positive thought to end the day:

The amount of organizing & mutual aid happening in Minneapolis right now is NEXT LEVEL.

We will protect our neighbors & get through this as best we can.

We are so much stronger together. And we are SO together right now.

I ❤️ you, MPLS.

For every pizza purchased, Wrecktangle Pizza offered to donate a frozen pizza to people in need due to ICE's presence in Minnesota. The response was "overwhelming," with orders coming in from across the country. bringmethenews.com/minnesota-li...

This is not a novel observation, but I really don't think the admin quite understands the level of radicalization that is happening to opposition elements that were not previously radicalized in the slightest.

It's actually a good thing that previously apolitical normies are finally getting angry and starting to speak out. We need the numbers in the streets and at the polls.

If your response to them is "no, fuck you, too late," then you don't actually care about stopping Trump. You're just preening.

It is impossible to overstate the degree to which the entire national political media's coverage of the 2024 presidential campaign, especially once Harris won the nomination, was deeply, fundamentally, shamefully unserious about the stakes & the candidates.
I can still recall all the tut-tutting from the media when Harris made this argument.
Kamala Harris at her closing campaign rally:

"Donald Trump intends to use the United States Military against American citizens who simply disagree with him."

They hate Minnesota because we are a people who believe that "we all do better when we all do better."

Minnesota is one of the wealthiest, safest, and cleanest states in the country *because* of our openness and generosity.

Our quality of life is a direct challenge to their zero-sum worldview.

We visited Renee Good's memorial.

There, we met a group of Somali Minnesotans — who too have been viciously attacked for weeks — warmly hosting everyone.

Flowers & stuffed animals galore.
Neighbors continually offering sambusas & hand-warmers & water.
Grief. And belief.

It’s hard to know if people outside MN understand how much of life is grinding to a halt here because of Trump’s occupation. Schools have shut down, businesses are scaling back hours or closing because their employees aren’t safe. The whole city is weighted down.

Philadelphia sheriff Rochelle Bilal:

“No law enforcement professional wears a mask…No law enforcement professional shoots at a moving vehicle.

“What Trump’s private army is doing…is not only against legal law, but moral law.”

Vows to arrest agents on site who commit crimes.

Welcome to Minnesota, fuckers. Also this is super disturbing because the ICE agent's assault rifle appears to fire as he falls down.

This was filmed by a friend near Chicago and Lake last night.

By the way, if you’re on the side of thinking that ICE is going to win whatever this “war” against the people they talk about…. They aren’t

And the statute of limitations goes past three years for a lot of crimes

Shapiro: J.D. Vance is profoundly and pathetically a weak human being, and he does whatever he thinks his boss wants him to do.

What we need right now is not idiotic gaslighting from the sitting VP

He should be ashamed of himself—and he’s not. I think that speaks to the weakness of his character.

I would add to this (obviously correct) thread that this jurisdiction successfully prosecuted this century’s most famous police homicide, they’re entitled to a presumption that they know what they’re doing
Here’s a comment for the people who are upset that MN hasn’t charged Jonathan Ross already:

If you just Leeeroy Jenkins this shit you will lose and you will empower fascism and murder.

It is indescribably hard to prosecute cops for murder. It is even hard when the murder is ON VIDEO.

Rep. @AOC: I understand that Vance believes shooting a young mother of three in the face three times is an acceptable America that he wants to live in, and I do not. That is a fundamental difference between Vance and I. I do not believe that the American people should be assassinated in the street.
