While the surge of federal agents in the Twin Cities grabbed much of the attention the past few months, stories of children hiding at home, crying in class and being detained have quietly gripped some Minnesota small towns since January.

Last night, as the party delved further into the Stonehell megadungeon, we hit session 50 of our #OldSchoolEssentials #ttrpg campaign! I'm having an absolute blast as the referee and my players are just the best. #OSR #RPG #necroticgnome

A legal observer in Cold Spring urged us to share that on 2/5, an ICE agent threatened to kill them. The agent purposely stood in front of their car and used the bogus fear of being hit to justify the threat. As the news cycle turns its eye away from MN, we will not forget.

Yeah, UK version is regular folks, rather than reality stars, which makes a huge difference. Some US seasons have been fun, but it's a completely different vibe. The UK Celebs season is for charity, so they got some terrific contestants, and it's not performatively mean-spirited.

There's been a lot of debate within the Democratic establishment about what rhetoric to use via ICE.

Well, an incumbent doesn't lose by 48 percentage points very oftenβ€”and her vote on collaborating with ICE was the defining issue here.

I'm into it. Especially the UK version/UK celebs.

We saw an uptick in ICE activity today.

ICE continues to be spotted around the metro area - dining, driving, and hiding in between events.

Current vehicles on the short list include Black Chevrolet Tahoes, White or Silver Jeep Wagoneers, and White Ford Transit vans with fake branding.

HSI and ice officers masked standing by their vehicle at the site of the arrest of Ward 12 neighbor.

HSI and ice officers masked standing by their vehicle at the site of the arrest of Ward 12 neighbor.

Today, I received confirmed reports that agents from ICE and HSI forced entry into a residence on the 5200 block of 36th Ave., kicking in the door and detaining a constituent. Witnesses report that 8–9 masked agents carried out the operation. 🧡

Please read this article to the end. Even before ICE got involved, this started because this *blind man who speaks no English and uses a curtain rod as a walking stick* got lost on a walk and some Karen called the police on him and they tasered and beat him bc he didn’t drop the rod. WTF

An image from the film The Neverending Story: An ornate leather-bound book bearing the title "The Neverending Story." Above the title is a metal sigil - two intertwined snakes.

Tonight I skipped the bullshit to go see a screening of The Neverending Story at the little revival house in my neighborhood. Seems like I made the right choice.

Three days after cops in a small town in Bucks County choked a girl on a sidewalk, kidnapped her and her friends from an anti-ICE walkout, and prevented their parents from contacting them, Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro still hasn't even issued an official statement acknowledging the incident.

You'd think so, but it's unfortunately not the case.
