Amplifying Ukrainian voices here and everywhere. I have family in Kharkiv and Crimea and a pile of family history enduring Russian aggression. If we are going to learn from history, we need to tell our stories. I run with a pack of rowdy shibas.

"We march together no matter the temp, no matter the fear inflicted, or hatred weaponized, bc of our love for humanity. We love our friends and family and neighbors, even ones we don’t know so well, even ones we may on occasion disagree with. And this love makes violence and injustice unacceptable."
Friends, please take a moment and read this piece by poet, children's book author (and fellow South High grad - go Tigers!) Bao Phi. It's wonderful and moving and necessary.

From a friend:
People outside of Mpls and St. Paul just don’t understand what’s happening. Our neighbors… our loved ones … people who have lived here for decades and never committed a crime… people who have paid taxes and supported their communities… are being beaten, tear gassed, dragged and shot.

Requests for midwives have increased, bc immigrant neighbors are too afraid to go to hospital to give birth. ICE is at the airport, the hospitals, the Targets, the Walmarts, the food banks. Stalking at schools and daycares. Terrorizing our neighborhood streets. But, we've got each others' backs...

This video is the perfect encapsulation of the illegal, thuggish, unprovoked, violent conduct of ICE. Rep. @benniethompson.bsky.social, I trust that you and the House Homeland Security Committee will have interest in this.

There were two middle-to-highschool aged KIDS kidnapped (without parents) by ICE in the Twin Cities today. I'm gonna have a really good primal scream and then a really good cry, and then I'm going back to the mutual aid organizing I'm trying to contribute. DO NOT LOOK AWAY. THIS IS NOT OK.

Incredible @statuscoupnews.bsky.social interview with Skye, who says she’s a Marine Corps vet and appears to have just been released from Whipple. She says she was trapped by ICE, yanked out of her car and stomped on.

In a Twin Cities rapid response chat, this kind of thing is a regular occurrence: "40 AGENTS. POINTING GUNS AT PEOPLE. MORE EYES NEEDED NOW." We're in a warzone.

We have to be clear about what the Trump Administration is doing: They are taking basic American virtues and freedoms — the ability to speak truth to power and freely — and turning them into crimes. We must see through this.

Look, EVERY ELECTED OFFICIAL: We're not going to stop a corrupt, fascist DOJ by asking politely, scolding sternly, or expressing deep concern. We need to force change. It will take courage. It will take risk. Welcome to what the American people are using to fight ICE on the streets. Join us.

More than 1,000 “ICE out” rallies planned across the U.S. today.
NYC: chanting the name Renée Good. Signs reading “Abolish ICE.” A sign even calling for Trump to be put in jail.
Anti-ICE marches are making it clear, people are done being scared, done being erased, done pretending this is normal.
