A local story about the protest art screenprinting ❤️
Just got home from supporting a training for new ICE patrol volunteers for a nearby neighborhood school.
For those who may've heard ICE is withdrawing 700 agents from Minnesota, keep in mind that still leaves more than 2000 here. They continue to violate human rights, engage in racial profiling, and cause chaos and terror.
They're even writing "ICE OUT" in the dirt on their vehicles to try to blend in and infiltrate communities and groups.
almost three weeks ago, my girlfriend and i were violently abducted by ICE. since then, I have been doxxed by Pam Bondi, and I am concerned for my safety. posting publicly about this is obviously a decision I had to weigh carefully, but I am hoping more good comes of it than bad.

U.S. President Donald Trump is withdrawing some 700 federal immigration enforcement agents from Minnesota, although about 2,000 agents will stay in place. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/02/05/world/trump-immigration-agents-minnesota/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #minnesota #minneapolis #us #donaldtrump #republicans #ice #immigration
The community resistance to #ICE in #Minnesota can, and should, be replicated all over the country.
Please. Even if ICE or other #trump loyalists aren't active in your community, there's a lot you can do to help others. Or you could donate, or volunteer services. Or show others what *they* might not know they can do.
