ICE are alllll over Harlem right now, 116 & Frederick Douglass, checking IDs and targeting the area’s African community. Multiple people have been detained.

Community members are advising folks to carry citizenship documents - or stay away if they are at risk

Folks should be aware that ICE/CBP have not at all let up in Minn despite Bovino's removal.

This am, I heard from a friend whose 74 y o mother was looking for parking for an event at the St. Paul capital when three feds in a vehicle with TX plates put their car in reverse and nearly rammed her.

This is apt. It’s not just that strategic, city-wide invasions would make fair elections in those cities impossible. Between roving patrols and Kavanaugh stops, a much smaller DHS presence would also be a nightmare for immigrant-citizen turnout.

I am. But there are three things at play here regarding ICE collecting private data. Quick rundown on the issue, why you should be paying attention, and what I'm doing about it:
So which politician is calling for the dismantling of the probably illegal database that ice & this government is collecting biometric data of protesters?

After executing Alex Pretti on Saturday, ICE has shifted to primarily targeting bus stops and elementary schools in my community this week. I cannot overstate how much of the ICE activity in my community is just targeting places where little kids are.
Video from this morning shows ICE agents deploying tear gas outside a Minneapolis preschool as parents shout, “This is a preschool! There’s kids here!”

Every single attorney still working at DoJ needs to be banished from the legal profession forever. I don’t care how long they’ve worked there or what excuses they come up with.
Breaking MS NOW:

Trump's Justice Department has decided there will be no civil rights investigation of the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti, and instead two units of DHS will investigate their own officers and the man they killed.
No civil rights violation probe into latest MN shooting, sources tell MS NOW
As DHS takes over the federal investigation, current and former law enforcement agents warn that Trump’s DOJ isn’t committed to facts or fairness.

The Trump admin is scrambling because the secret police it sends out for kidnappings and rioting has been killing people on video then brazenly lying about it, but Schumer's instinct is to whip his caucus into taking a position *more conservative* than that held by the median voter.

He's got to go.
Majority of the country now wants to abolish and/or dismantle ICE and yet Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y. told the caucus the message had to be to “restrain, reform and restrict ICE.”

Once again it looks like Schumer is about to choke after getting a massive opportunity.

So pathetic and weak.
Senate Democrats plot strategy as DHS standoff deepens heading into shutdown week
Two sources who were on a Democratic caucus strategy call Sunday said Minority Leader Chuck Schumer told the group the message must be to “restrain, reform and restrict ICE.”

Damn. I'd seen some of the videos and was already convinced, but this really shows it was a straight-up execution. Like there's no possible way to defend that.

Reminder that, as of the latest reports, Liam Ramos is still in prison in Texas - now for 5 days.

His parents are legal asylum seekers with no criminal record.

Seems like this could be Exhibit A in support of an injunction preventing DHS from targeting people for their opinions and speech.
Micro nazi from the land of formerly free speech, Bovino says if you call federal agents “kidnappers” or “Gestapo,” there will be “consequences.”

It's long past time for someone with influence to organize an economic boycott of Apple (e.g. no purchases of Apple products/services in Feb). Tim & Co. clearly have no morals or values to appeal to.

Here's a regular white guy (literally "Chad") not a protester. because, "It seemed pointless, or just a way for people to expiate their sense of guilt." Chad witnessed something shattering. And, that all changed in a moment.

Excellent article!

An insane, perfect encapsulation of it all:

if you see the way they talk about the protests they're obsessed, OBSESSED, with the idea that democrats are somehow directing the protests and sending people to get killed. right wingers genuinely cannot understand the idea of seeing something and making a moral decision, because they lack souls
