he’s also a traitor, who will be tried for sedition sooner or later.
If you think American citizens should be summarily executed by masked federal agents, you’re not a patriot.
If you think the lawless goons loyal to our demented pedophile criminal president are greater than the people of Minnesota, you’re not a patriot.
You’re a fucking Nazi.

This witness to Alex Pretti's murder not only refutes the governmen't story, but says she is afraid to go home because federal agents might arrest her. This is what it feels like to live under state terror.

i think this attitude — that all opposition is illegitimate and nothing we do can be questioned— is probably pervasive in the white house and helps explain why they keep making terrible political choices
Putin pioneered this. No opposition is legitimate. Regular, decent, “ordinary” people cannot possibly be against us because only we represent “the real people.”
Tell-tale sign of authoritarianism.

Somewhere someone must have put together a list of ALL the migrant support/solidarity network hotlines in various states/cities, right?
Also I hope they are all connected/talking with each other. So much knowledge to share and ways to mutually support each other!

Also I showed some fellow parents at a kids sports game the other day and one of the dads broke into a huge grin saying “I’ve seen those around! I’ve never known a stickering person!” So I gave him some :-)
I cannot recommend stickering public spaces enough. I keep anti-Trump ones in my purse with me. The other day I misjudged an old white dude who saw me doing it. Thought he was gonna yell at me, but instead he asked for some “Trump Fascist” ones (ty @fedupstudio.bsky.social) so he could put them up.

You wanna know why the GOP have always wanted to defund PBS? This is why. Because God forbid kids grow up learning about democracy, kindness and decency to our neighbors and turn into the type of adults rooted enough in their values and humanity to defy fascist bullies.
"They say they're coming to save us from some evil? They're talking about our neighbors who take care of us ... Alex was murdered while he was helping. Mr Rogers said look for the helpers, & right now the helpers have a target on our forehead ... Mr Rogers would be here right now too, so I'm here."

Chris Murphy: "This is really scary because what Bovino essentially told you is that if you just happen to be present when they are undertaking an operation, if you pull out your phone to record it, the use of force against you is justified. That is not true, it's not what the law says."

By who? Who shot the person dead? You saw the video. We all know a federal agent shot a man dead who was prone on the ground. Also, it's not "according to officials." It's according to verified video seen with your eyes. Not saying what anyone can obviously see with their eyes is a form of lying.

One of the few things keeping us buoyed here in the Twin Cities is knowing that friends & family outside of the state are seeing & hearing us & contacting their representatives & donating to organizations here on the ground.

Minneapolis is my home away from home. So many of my favorite people in the world live there. Also Jeremy. We travel there most years.
My heart weeps for the needless pain they are all going through, but it also swells because I am so proud of those bad mother fuckers. Even Jeremy. Love you all.

Yeah come on BBC, you’re not under the thumb of fascism, do better. We need at least the international outlets to cover our country accurately.
“Shot dead” is passive. “murdered” names the actor. Words matter, especially when the state is pulling the trigger.

This is the kind of language that should be used. Because it’s accurate.
Today, out-of-control masked federal agents killed another American, Alex Pretti, a VA ICU nurse.
Trump needs to end this chaos and withdraw his ICE battalions from Minneapolis.
The Senate must vote down funding this slaughter of our people.

Call your senators and ask them when the last time they objected to unanimous consent was
The senators are even worse. They have always been able to shut down the floor and force debate on literally ANY issue and they just refuse to do it.
So climate change, universal health care, whatever. If Congress isn't working on it, every member is responsible.

They can also stop talking about immigration which this clearly is not about and start calling it what it is: Facism in American streets.
"What can Democrats actually do?"
- Vote against funding for ICE and DHS
- State that any ICE officers who commit crimes under Trump will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law
- Encourage cities and states to refuse to cooperate with ICE
- Explain ICE is part of Trump's tyranny

You’re watching the administration lose control of the narrative in real time.
The more they show their supporters that they don’t give a shit about their gun rights, the worse it gets.
I’ve seen over a dozen right-wing commentators call out the propaganda. That’s progress.

For any Democrat hesitant to go full on against ICE because they’re wary about ~the right way to talk about immigration~ (🙄) - what’s happening now isn’t about immigration. It’s a secret police force terrorizing & killing American citizens, trampling their 1A (& 2A!) rights.
