Tonight it is really feeling like they are amping up the nighttime raids and attacks across the city. I’ve seen four different reports in the last 10 minutes from different distinct areas in Minneapolis saying they are seeing abductions and weapons drawn by federal forces.

ICE is making our community less safe.
Last night Maya announced they would be closed until further notice because they couldn’t guarantee the safety of their customers and staff due to ICE’s occupation of our City. ICE is actively making our neighborhoods less safe and hurting anchor businesses in our community like Maya.

His lawyers call his injury "catastrophic." He's been almost non communicative and is now sedated. Yet ICE hovers, even shackling his legs.

Really baffling speech that he gave. Here's a summation: he cares about the police being racially profiled but says that ice performs a valuable role in enforcing immigration law. He then went on to say that ice is mostly good people and that there's only a few bad apples
