Minnesota Representative and Medical Doctor Kelly Morrison was granted an oversight visit of the Whipple immigration detention center in Minneapolis.
Her testimony confirms the horrific treatment of people who have been kidnapped by ICE. Because she’s an MD, she understands the situation more acutely than other politicians might.
We must continue to do everything we can to stop ICE. Full stop.

Following the invasion of 3000 ICE officers,
everyday Minnesotans are pouring into #rapid #response networks and scouring their neighborhoods
—even in 20-degree weather before the sun has come up.“I’m being tailed by a car I think is ICE,
I can make out two masked individuals through the tinted windshield,” someone says.The call goes quiet for a few seconds.
“I’m being pulled over.”Dispatch chimes in:
“Stay unmuted,
turn down your volume so they don’t hear the call,
everyone else please stay on mute.”We hear banging,
then something shatters.“ICE just smashed their window,”
our driver explains calmly,
decelerating ahead of a red light.We are shocked,
but this is a regular occurrence.Everyone on the call keeps their cool.
We have heard stories from rapid responders about ICE tailing them,
boxing them in,
smashing their car windows,
pepper-spraying them,
holding them at gun point,
shooting out their tires,
detaining them.Some responders have been taken to the regional ICE headquarters,
the #Whipple building.Others have been driven to the other side of the city
and thrown out of the vehicle, ❄️alone in the cold.Their cars have been left running in the road.
The responders tell us all these stories in passing,
quickly returning focus to the work that is to be done.Of course, ICE has done worse than this, too.
ICE agent Jonathan Ross shot and killed #Renee #Good as she was trying to drive away.
A week later, as ICE agents were pursuing someone,
they shot live ammunition at a house with a family in it, hitting #Julio #Sosa-#Celis in the leg.But when you ask patrollers what they want people to know about what’s happening in their city, they barely mention the broken windows and bruises.
They describe the feeling of connection and solidarity filling the streets.
They make ❤️hearts with their hands from car to car, they blow kisses.
They make dinners for one another,
they drop off groceries for undocumented families that have been locked inside their homes for weeks.They tell us about how, when a skirmish broke out on a busy road,
an entire café full of people stood up as one,
dropping what they were doing to run towards the sound.We hear again and again about their deep love for the community in the Twin Cities and for their neighbors.
Every day, people who never imagined themselves fighting ICE are participating in bold combative actions

The mobilization comes after throngs of #demonstrators protested in the snow Friday night near the Bishop Henry #Whipple Federal Building in the #Minneapolis area.
“Stay safe & stay peaceful today,” #TimWalz urged the public in a social media post Saturday. “Our public safety team has the resources, coordination, & personnel on the ground to maintain public safety & respond if needed. Thanks to local law enforcement for keeping the peace.”

Fred Lawrence Whipple Observatory (FWLO) telescopes as seen from the summit of Mt. Hopkins (where the MMT telescope is located). The observatory is managed by the Smithsonian Astrophysical observatory (SAO). The three domes host the 60- and 48-inch telescopes, and the PAIRITEL 1.3 meters telescope (left to right). At the bottom left are the "ridge" dormitories for the astronomers and staff. From an observing trip in December 2005. #Astronomy #Telescopes #FWLO #Whipple #Arizona #Photography
