Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.

yeah i generally think that there's mounting evidence that the trump admin does not actually think that the troops are willing to be the boot on people's necks like they're hoping.

You don't murder people for using the word "kidnapper" (which, I'll add, is an accurate description of grabbing people and locking them up without due process.)

If you do, you're a fascist.
Bovino: "When politicians, community leaders, & some journalists engage in that heated rhetoric we keep talking about, when they make the choice to vilify law enforcement calling law enforcement 'Gestapo' or using the term 'kidnapping,' that is a choice & there are actions & consequences."

God I remember almost this exact same photo from 2020
From Whittier a few hrs ago—after shooting & killing an ICE responder in Minneapolis, 37 yr old Alex Pretti, DHS agents brutalized a crowd that gathered & flooded the area w/ tear gas.

@andral404.bsky.social captured this moment against a building where a fed then pointed his rifle at someone.

when they say that everyone should have a right to carry a weapon in public they mean only loyal Republicans have a right to carry a weapon in public. if you don't agree them politically and you carry a weapon then that's justification for them to shoot you dead.

Vice President JD Vance reposted this lie by Stephen Miller. Alex Pretti was not attempting to assassinate federal agents. All the video shows that’s a lie.

Pretti never brandished his gun. Agents took it off him and then murdered him.

The Trump regime is based on lies.

GREAT NEWS.

Trump's Texas gerrymander of 5 Congressional seats knocked down.

Trump-appointed judge says "Substantial evidence shows that Texas racially gerrymandered the 2025 Map."

Orders Texas midterms proceed under prior maps.

Federal court blocks new Texas congressional map for 2026
The decision is a major blow for Republicans, in Texas and nationally, who pushed through this unusual mid-decade redistricting at the behest of President Donald Trump.

On his trip to MN yesterday, Vance said DHS wasn’t targeting people based on race.

Not only is that false, remember, this Admin took a case to SCOTUS specifically arguing they should be allowed to do that.

Trump’s SCOTUS ruled in their favor.

Don't be fooled by their lies.

Trump, Noem, Bondi, Vance and Miller are not used to having their lies unambiguously called lies by journalists and normies. They can’t stand losing that control, but refuse to be seen as backing down—so we are at great risk they channel their furry into further escalation.

The shooting of Alex Pretti was (US) state sanctioned murder and has been followed up by attempts to destroy evidence and stop local police (and even the FBI) from investigating.

Minnesota police are trying to counter the lies and illegality.

Terrifying

The same people who said that the mass murder of children in schools was a sad but necessary price to enable citizens to bear arms and oppose tyranny are now saying that if you carry a gun it’s your fault if you’re murdered.

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum.

Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum.

Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum.

ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.
