ICE OUT - Dominus Owen Markham

There’s something quietly unsettling about watching a story of this magnitude get nudged off the front page. The current Iran situation has swallowed the oxygen in most newsrooms, and I understand why.

#TwinCities Unions Planning ‘Largest US #RentStrike in 100+ Years’ as #ICEOccupation Drives #EvictionCrisis

“Tenants in #Minnesota are in a crisis,” said #Minneapolis City Council Member #AishaChughtai. “The federal invasion forced many of our neighbors to stay home and devastated our #LocalEconomy.”

Stephen Prager, Feb 17, 2026

"Tenant and labor unions in Minneapolis and St. Paul have announced plans to carry out what they said would be the 'largest rent strike in the United States in the last 100 years.'

"Beginning on #March1, if Democratic Minnesota Gov. #TimWalz does not meet their urgent demands for an #EvictionMoratorium and #RentRelief, a coalition of nearly 26,000 workers has pledged to withhold rent, which they said could create a massive economic disruption.

"The plans were announced on Tuesday by the tenants union #TwinCitiesTenants, which is joined by five labor unions: Service Employees International Union (#SEIU) Local 26, SEIU Healthcare Minnesota/Iowa, UNITE HERE Local 17, the Amalgamated Transit Union (#ATU) 1005, and Communication Workers of America (#CWA) 7250.

"They argued that a freeze on rents is desperately needed after 'nearly three months of federal occupation' under President Donald #Trump’s '#OperationMetroSurge,' which sent nearly 3,000 Immigration and Customs Enforcement (#ICE) and other immigration agents to the area, resulting in multiple fatal shootings and a wave of #CivilRights violations, including explicit #RacialProfiling."

Tom Homan: Minnesota should say "thank you" for DHS operation

“They were a sanctuary state. Their county jails weren’t working with us across the state,” Homan said. “We fixed it.”

÷ICE's brutal #OperationMetroSurge is winding down. #Minneapolis breathes again, for now. The action has relocated.

But the change of scene allows a step back, to reflect.

MAGA sees this as a battle to keep white America dominant.

For Liberal America, it's about opposing racism and upholding legal norms.

In reality, it's a fight over stolen goods. The genocidal conquest of most of North America is common ground, as is the militarised global empire. The shared imperialism dwarfs the dispute.
