Minnesotans should pour water on all their sidewalks and put up signs that read "CAUTION ICE IN AREA" just on the other side so they'll try to come and take them down.

Looks like ICE is now cracking down on … Native Americans.

This letter was just posted by the chairman of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe in North/South Dakota:

“Our Nation is a sovereign government and our members are not immigrants. We are not subject to immigration enforcement on our own lands.”

I would really caution anyone against implying that paywalling this feature is a legitimate response to public outcry. The paywall is an endorsement, not a restriction. Musk is saying "this thing you're all talking about is valuable. Pay me for it." The actual material effect is just monetization.

I am not a law professor so I can't speak to any of this, but an interesting thread by a law professor on MN law.

TIM WALZ: I feel you anger. I'm angry. They want a show. Don't give it to them. If you protest, protest peacefully. Please stand with Minneapolis. Know that we will stop at nothing to seek justice. We do not need any further help from the federal government. You've done enough.
