Just a regular reminder that the ENTIRE premise behind the draconian and militaristic immigration enforcement we have been witnessing the past year is based on an empirically disproven lie.

THOUSANDS of men and women have died for this country because they were told they were DEFENDING DEMOCRACY.
The GOP members of congress will not even risk their jobs to save our country. Think about that. They risk nothing more than have to find another job after the next election.

Agreed. Please call your senators and tell them so.
Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized. Any Democratic vote to provide money to the thugs who are brutalizing this community is a grave betrayal to the people here. Accountability can't wait.

DHS/ICE has kidnapped and is holding three enrolled Oglala Sioux Tribal Members HOSTAGE at Fort Snelling and says they won’t release them until the Oglala Sioux Tribe agrees to sign a contract to let ICE operate on tribal lands.

ICE keeps saying the people protesting it are being paid without any evidence, but we have receipts showing that the people *defending* ICE are absolutely being paid.
And yet we only hear lies about the former on cable news.

ICE also targeted a car full of kids (not involved in protests, just trying to get out of the area) with flash bangs and sent 6 kids, including a 6 month old baby, to the hospital. bsky.app/profile/siam...
Man with 6 kids (incl 6 month old) who WN part of the MN protests and was just trying to leave was targeted by ICE with flash bangs.
America, you don't have to be involved to be targeted. Just in the wrong place at the wrong time. Wake up.

The absence of any public pushback from the Republican Party on a situation as insane as Trump is rapidly reaching on Greenland is itself a huge sign of how far gone the US already is.

ICE agents are stalking the streets of Minneapolis demanding that random brown people provide proof of citizenship.
We good with that, America?
I thought we learned this lesson back in World War II, but I guess not.

A protester is currently lying in a hospital bed with a piece of shrapnel in his neck 7mm from his carotid artery.
While he lay bleeding on the pavement, blinded in his left eye, gasping for air, agents did not call a medic. They dragged him and sneered: "You're going to lose your eye."
