He literally says in this clip that ICE will keep in Minnesota “quick reaction forces” — a military term — to go after “agitators.” Remember that those on the ground in MPLS have spent more than a week trying to tell everyone that Trump’s prior “deescalation” was a ruse and ICE is still operational
Homan: "Operation Metro Surge is ending. In the next week, we're going to deploy the officers here on detail back to their home stations or to other areas of the country where they're needed."

Well, it looks like those concentration camps just got a big thumbs up. It seems like only yesterday that the government was apologizing for the Japanese internment. I guess it was really, "sorry, not sorry."

The Montreal Canadiens are playing the Minnesota Wild in Minneapolis tonight. The players have been recommended to stay in/eat at the hotel, take the team bus to the arena, and carry passports.

Perhaps we shouldn't be hosting the World Cup and the Olympics...

Policing Holocaust analogies is more than occasionally justified, but I’d suggest Kip is just leaning into his priors & should stfu if he’s bleating from Kentucky. People, including citizens, ARE hiding in their homes, authorities ARE acting illegally. If not Anne Frank, read some Niemöller, Kip.

Pretty infuriating to see a guy so crooked he took a paper bag filled with $50k in exchange for doling out government contracts now proclaim he is going after criminals. How is this real life?

It feels like our federal government has waged a war on Minnesota. But no need to take my word for it. Believe your eyes, columnist Rochelle Olson writes.

Bovino’s retirement needs to be a cage. His command environment yielded Renee Good’s death, Alex Pretti’s death & Julio Sosa-Celis’ shooting. Failure to prosecute Bovino & everyone else materially responsible for these atrocities will be understood by ICE, CBP, etc as a green light for the next ones

If they wanted this to end they could leverage their capital to do so. They don’t actually want the ICE operations that are widely unsupported to stop. They’ll still let ICE stage in their lots, let Bovino terrorize customers, and let their employees get attacked by ICE on the job.

You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.

Yep. It's the correct term. That it makes people uncomfortable is more reason to use accurate language.
Concentration Camp: a prison or other facility used for the internment of political prisoners or politically targeted demographics, such as members of national or ethnic minority groups, on the grounds of national security, or for exploitation or punishment.

Trump & Vance’s agents saw tens of thousands of people — of all ages & races — come out *in below zero temperatures* to protest their tax-funded violence, their murder of their neighbor.

And the very next day, they executed another one.

What can Americans conclude from this?

Yesterday, 50,000 Minnesotans peacefully protested to stop the terror being inflicted on our community. Today, ICE shot and likely killed another constitutional observer on the street. I can’t say this clearly enough: Congress has to stop this. The government is killing us. Congress has to act.

MPD are cutting off Nicollet southward starting at 24th, and headed all the way down to at least 28th. Tear gas was being deployed as I left to go home. If you are responding in the area, wear a respirator mask.

ICE and MPD allowed a bus to drive through the scene as well.

I’m sorry, I don’t care who this pisses off: yes, obviously this murder is on Trump and his ICE goons, but it is also on the feckless, cowardly authorities in the Minnesota government who didn’t do anything to arrest ICE agents the first time they murdered someone. This is the cost of inaction.
