Any Democratic votes to fund DHS later this month as Minneapolis is being terrorized by DHS is going to be a major slap in the face to Americans living here. Demand major reforms or shut the government down.

The war crimes are piling up: to unlawful targeting of civilians now add perfidy. Unless the US isn't really at "war" with drug cartels, in which case it's extra-judicial execution in the context of extraterritorial law enforcement. Whatever the legal framework - the Trump regime is breaking it.

“People are getting kidnapped where they work. People are getting taken away when they're cleaning snow out of their cars. My son's school, 25 people, only r people showed up yesterday. People are afraid to do their groceries. People are afraid to go to work.

“We are not safe. We are under attack”
There is a longer version of the video of a kidnapping of this kid - there really is no other word for it - here. As he is being shoved into the DHS vehicle he breaks down. At about the 2 minute mark you hear a DHS agent say "wow - fucking child" sarcastically.

When the NSDAP came to power, Germany experienced the greatest volume of capital flight in its history. Since Trump returned to power one year ago, the US has seen the heaviest volume of capital flight in its history. Now Bessent is concocting crazy measures to stem it.
Bessent: "For individuals who want to wire money out of the country, they're gonna have to tick a box whether they are or are not on public assistance. Then we're going to start pushing over the coming days and weeks that if you're on public assistance, you cannot wire money out of the country."

A masked federal immigration officer killed Renée Nicole Good, a 37-year-old mother and poet, shooting her at point-blank range in her car.
The incident is far from the first time immigration officers have shot someone in recent months.

Cops are taught not to shoot into cars. ICE keeps doing it anyway.
