Feds Use Signal Chats Against Protesters, Porchfest Needs Your Porch, and Free First Ave Tix from the Library

from City Cast Twin Cities · host City Cast

Federal prosecutors announce charges against people connected to anti-ICE demonstrations in Minneapolis, and the indictment may have implications far beyond the defendants. We dig into what happened at the DOJ press conference, what's in the indictment, and what community members are already doing to respond. Plus, Lisa Martelly joins to make the case for signing up your porch for Uptown Porchfest, and Hennepin County Library Director Scott Duimstra and St. Paul Public Library Deputy Director Rebecca Ryan reveal just how much you can do with a library card – from state park passes to live music to a vinyl listening room.
