In the Minniapolis-St. Paul area the local police and federal government are warrentlessly raiding the houses of leftists and making mass arrests of potential political protesters before any protests get underway.
The police are also sweeping up any press or lawyers trying to monitor police activity. The police even arrested Amy Goodman of Democracy Now. The Democracy Now production crew was arrested too.
