The group of about 65 head toward Lowertown St. Paul for the performance's finale. The crowd has been repeating dialogue aloud that's being spoken by one of the performers.
Performers are taking turns calling out dialogue and messages, and everyone chants what they say to project it louder. They've been marching for over 30 minutes now.
The performance is inside now for its finale.

During the first Trump administration we obtained hundreds of pages of special agent manuals from ICE Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) in full - we released w/o redactions. It includes everything from denaturalization, to 'special response teams' to undercover operations: Image

Icebreaker Pt 1 – Secret Homeland Security ICE/HSI Manual for Stripping US Citizenship
unicornriot.ninja/2018/icebreake…
"...denaturalization efforts are in line with the Trump Administration’s policies stripping DACA and Temporary Protected Status from hundreds of thousands of immigrants who have been contributing to this country for years." — Jennifer Chang Newell, managing attorney with the ACLU Immigrants’ Rights Project
Icebreaker Pt 2 – Confidential Homeland Security Asset Forfeiture and Search and Seizure Handbooks
unicornriot.ninja/2018/icebreake…
"the [handbooks] ... exposes the inner workings of an extrajudicial system that has destroyed people’s lives without due process. This shadow system skirts the checks and balances that have traditionally staved off at least some abuses of power and gives the elite who run this country the unfettered ability to manipulate outcomes.” – Michelle Gross, Communities United Against Police Brutality

NEW: Chuds on Parade – Meet Trump's Cabinet

unicornriot.ninja/2025/chuds-on-…
Current DHS Secretary Kristi Noem has often espoused racist and anti-immigrant rhetoric tied to the neo-nazi-originated “Great Replacement” conspiracy theory and embraces adopting anti-LGBTQ policies. Oh and she shot the family dog. Kristi Noem wears a white shirt, gold wristwatch and ICE baseball cap standing in front of CECOT detainees with shaved heads behind prison bars. The crowd of prisoners Noem is posing in front of fades into a mass of tormented naked people crowded together making various wild vestures. Some kind of medieval contraption is seen below Noem, to her right a fanged inhuman creature with pink skin is perched on the ground wearing a hat kind of like if a wizards hat didnt stand upright and also had feathers. From in between its jaws, we can see the inside of its mouth is smooth except for four fang...
Mike Huckabee is Trump's ambassador to Israel.

He's rubbed elbows with actual white supremacists (Council of Conservative Citizens, pro-segregation), demonized gay people, and claimed "there's no such thing as a Palestinian." Mike Huckabee's head with inflamed looking skin super imposed into a skinny blue skin monster eating a pale-skinned human head first as he sits on a round yellowish chair with a blue egg with people imprisoned or frozen inside under his chair. The blue Huckabee hybrid creature is wearing green shows that are possibly also coffee mugs. To the viewer's right and behind the Huckabee-hybrid's chair an army of what appear to be nuns are peeling back a curtain possibly attached to the chair. The butt naked victim being devoured by Huckabee has black colored birds flying out of their butt. Some ki...

During his three-minute speech at President Donald Trump’s second presidential inauguration, Elon Musk performed a Nazi salute multiple times while emphasizing how this election “really mattered” and thanking the crowd “for making it happen.”

Full story: unicornriot.ninja/2025/elon-musk…
While some news outlets avoided describing the clear gesture as a Nazi salute, various scholars and activists named it as such, describing the nod to fascist propaganda as a grim signal of what Musk and the incoming administration hope to accomplish in this country.
“We need to state the obvious, of course: it was a Nazi salute,” Cindy Barukh Milstein told Unicorn Riot. Milstein is a diasporic queer Jewish anarchist, writer, and longtime organizer.

NEW: Groundbreaking for a Minneapolis Youth-Serving Community Staple

For nearly three decades, the educational nonprofit WE WIN Institute has been nomadic, serving youth in Minneapolis out of rented spaces. But that era is coming to a close — on November 19, 2024, WE WIN held a groundbreaking event for their new building in Minneapolis’ Bryn Mawr neighborhood. Unicorn Riot was there to document the historic occasion and interview board members, organization partners and a former student-turned-staff. 🧵
Founded in 1996 by award-winning educator Titilayo Bediako, WE WIN Institute has served thousands of youth in Minneapolis with in-school, after school, summer school, tutoring and more. WE WIN recently broke ground on a new building they can call home. unicornriot.ninja/2024/groundbre…
Known locally for its vivacious Kwanzaa Celebrations, large urban garden, Harvest Fest, and back-to-school and Black-authored book give-away events, WE WIN has also offered parent groups, tutoring, entrepreneurial programming, a litany of arts related programming, as well as cooking, gardening and mentoring.

UR interviewed WE WIN's founder and Ex. Director Titi Bediako during Juneteenth celebrations in North Minneapolis in 2020. WE WIN handed out 500 books by Black authors for free to the community.

🧵: Assistant U.S. Attorney Jennifer Kerkhoff (now Jennifer Kerkhoff Muyskens) oversaw the failed prosecution of over 200 Trump inauguration protesters on felony conspiracy riot charges, with demonstrators and journalists facing ~80yrs for being around when others broke windows.
The #J20 case collapsed when it came to light that Kerkhoff, working with her star witness DC Police Detective Greggory Pemberton (also a police union official), had *altered and deleted exculpatory evidence* and lied about it to the court repeatedly:

unicornriot.ninja/2018/prosecuto…
The hidden evidence was portions of an undercover video taken by an operative of right-wing disinformation group Project Veritas during a planning meeting for Trump inauguration protests, which Kerkhoff said implicated all protesters present that day in a violent conspiracy.
