I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

A neighbor to the South Shore building said they suspected this may be the case, back in November when the then-tenants announced they were unionizing.
“This is an attempt at gentrification. Point-blank, period,” they said.

Stop lying. Your state cops attacked protesters alongside ICE yesterday. I was there. I and others were violently attacked by ICE agents. Your state cops acted in concert with them during the attack.
State, county, and local law enforcement have been working together and coordinating to ensure public safety around the Broadview ICE facility, and to protect people’s ability to peacefully exercise their constitutional rights.

ICE claims to have taken 900 people from Chicagoland, but the state police are now going to do crowd control to stop the protesters who are trying to get in the way.
Federal agents claim as many as 900 people have been detained in recent weeks in the Chicago area, but have shared few details on the arrests, making it difficult to independently verify the information and background of individuals.

Yes, arresting a journalist for doing their job is a big flashing red light. But I don't want people to forget the whole reason everyone is out there.
This is what I saw inside:
Four holding rooms. Two smaller rooms were being used for holding protesters. Two larger rooms held ICE/CBP captives.
