  2. She protested #ICERaids. Then agents showed up at her door

    by Meg Anderson, August 3, 2026

    "Early one morning this June, #TreasureThoreson was drinking coffee on her couch in #Minneapolis when she heard a knock at the front door.

    " 'I go and I see a woman standing there in office clothes, but with a Homeland Security vest over the top. And I see six more agents standing in my front yard,' Thoreson told NPR. "She said, 'We have a warrant for your arrest, for conspiracy.' "

    "Thoreson, a special education teacher, was still in her pajamas. The agent let her change clothes and hug her partner goodbye before taking her into custody.

    "The government charged Thoreson and 14 others with engaging in a conspiracy to impede federal agents — a conspiracy it says culminated in the use of blockades outside the Whipple Federal Building, which served as ICE's headquarters during the immigration enforcement surge in Minnesota this past winter.

    "The government cited meetings and conversations on the encrypted messaging app #Signal as evidence. At the advice of her lawyer, Thoreson declined to comment on the specifics of the indictment.

    An increasing trend

    "The charges against Thoreson are part of an escalating trend. NPR reviewed court records from the last five years to examine how the federal government is wielding one specific charge: conspiracy to impede or injure an officer, which can carry a sentence of up to six years in federal prison.

    "The statute, which dates back to the Civil War, has historically been used infrequently. But since President #Trump took office last year, the Justice Department has charged more than three dozen people in at least 10 cases. All of them involve people protesting federal immigration enforcement.

    The government has also indicted nearly 50 people on #conspiracy charges in #Michigan, #Texas and #Minnesota using different legal statutes."

  10. So, an anarchist friend of mine who is in #Minneapolis said the #Somali community is scared, but he and other allies are looking out for them. Here's what he said about comments by the #MinneapolisPoliceChief: "Yeah, it's hard to know what to make of that, but I read it as an attempt to convince residents the MPD is on their side. Relations have been strained since the Uprising." Interesting... So that explains the comments against ICE.

  11. #Maine - Some #LewistonME elected leaders, community members condemn #Trump's attack on #Somali #immigrants

    Maine Public | By Ari Snider
    Published December 3, 2025

    "After President Donald Trump called Somali immigrants quote 'garbage' this week, some in Maine's Somali community fear the rhetoric could spark violence.

    "During a cabinet meeting Tuesday, Trump said he doesn't want Somali immigrants to be in the U.S. at all.

    "It comes as immigration agents are launching an operation in #Minnesota, reportedly targeting the state's large Somali population.

    "In Lewiston, Somali interpreter and nonprofit director Ifraax Saciid-Ciise said the president's attacks are jarring.

    " 'I find it very hard to believe that president, who is supposed to represent everybody, all the people in the United States, [would] target a group of very vulnerable population here in America,' Saciid-Ciise said.

    "She said many in the community worry Trump's words could incite violence or harassment against Somali residents.

    " 'It has created a lot of fear,' she said, because people unfamiliar with the Somali community 'may take his words as real, and as a fact, and they may also target the Somali people.'

    "Safiya Khalid, who served as the first Somali-American on the Lewiston city council, said in a social media post that she was quote 'deeply offended and disgusted' by the president's attacks, and called on state and local elected leaders to stand up for their Somali constituents.

    "Lewiston Mayor Carl Sheline called the president's assertion that Somali immigrants contribute nothing to society 'shameful and inaccurate.'

    " 'Here, Somali entrepreneurs are business owners and hard workers, creating jobs and strengthening our local economy,' Sheline said in a written statement on Wednesday. 'Their active role within our City has been instrumental in Lewiston's revitalization, making such rhetoric not only cruel but clearly false. We will continue to celebrate the contributions of all immigrants who help build a better America.'

    "In a joint letter on Thursday, Democratic state representatives Mana Abdi, Deqa Dhalac, and Yusuf Yusuf also condemned Trump's statements and efforts to roll back legal protections for some Somali immigrants.

    " 'The vast majority of people affected by this administration’s immigration policies are law-abiding individuals who are legitimately working to attain citizenship. Many have called #America their home for decades, raising families, contributing to our economy, and strengthening our communities,' they wrote.

  12. #TransPeople Have Disappeared From #ICE Records, Against Congressional Orders

    The #Trump administration has made efforts to "erase" #transgender people, who face violence and medical neglect behind bars.

    by Matt Sledge, July 11 2025

    "President Donald Trump’s administration has vanished another inconvenient fact: the number of transgender people in #immigration #detention.

    "Immigration and Customs Enforcement quietly stopped reporting how many transgender people it keeps locked up in February, as the total population of immigrants in detention soared and the agency rescinded protections for trans people.

    "The move follows Trump’s executive order in January to essentially stop recognizing that trans people exist. According to the nonprofit Vera Institute of Justice, it appears to run afoul of a congressional mandate to report how many transgender and other vulnerable people are being kept in immigration detention.

    "The move has complicated advocates’ efforts to keep trans immigrants safe behind bars, where they face a heightened risk of violence and medical neglect.

    " 'It’s part and parcel of a larger effort to really erase trans people,' said Bridget Crawford, the director of law and policy for the nonprofit advocacy group #ImmigrationEquality. 'They are not even willing to try to track the trans population, despite the congressional mandate.'

    "Her group released a survey last year finding 'systemic' mistreatment of #LGBTQ+ and #HIVPositive people in immigration detention. About one third of the respondents reported sexual and physical #abuse or #harassment, and nearly all reported verbal abuse, including threats of violence. Most said they received inadequate medical care or were denied care outright.

    "Congress directed the Department of Homeland Security, the parent agency of ICE, to report the number of transgender people in detention starting in 2021, according to the Vera Institute."
