BLANCHE: Was that peaceful protesting? No. It was a violent occurrence bc ICE cannot do their job when local law enforcement refuses to help
WELKER: There are only 600 police officers in Mpls. There are 3k ICE agents. Officials say it strains credulity to think they can back up every ICE official

FYI: Dems in the senate can't defund ICE. ICE is funded by the Big Ugly Bill. Shutting down DHS on this vote wouldn't touch ICE, but it would shut down FEMA, TSA, Coast Guard, etc. Shutting down ICE requires taking back Congress in the midterms. Dismantling DHS requires the White House in 2028.

Stop what you’re doing and read this whistleblower report. ICE has been training its agents that they don’t need a judicial warrant to break down your door - a blatant violation of the 4th Amendment. www.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

Today, it’s not your vote that determines whether the government brutalizes you or sends officers to your door. It’s your neighbors’ vote.
If you’re ok with this happening to Minnesotans, don’t get comfortable. You won’t be exempt for long.
In the end, a lawless administration comes for everyone.

It's been well over three weeks since the deadline set by law and they still haven't fully released the Epstein files because withholding exculpatory evidence is clearly what you do when you're "innocent."

🥺 Sad eyes, sad face, only 3.5 years old, over 852 days waiting for that right person to adopt her. MELIA is just a playful, sweet, smart, fun, loving dog. Needing a Calm adult only home. No dogs.
