I"m afraid that congressional Democrats are too scared to shut the government down over ICE again this month. They’re thinking it will hurt their chances in November. But it’s kind of sick to fund ICE what does that say?

How come people aren’t flying drones to follow ICE? Too expensive?

Where is the business community and corporate leaders of Minnesota based companies in speaking up? Why aren't the big law firms sending lawyers to represent the people being attacked?
We are not at the end of this authoritarianism, we are at the beginning. And, sadly, we are on our own.

This is appalling: Top DOJ officials are actively pushing for a criminal investigation into the widow of Renee Good, leading prosecutors to quit en masse, NYT is reporting.
Who in the White House ordered DOJ to do this? That's the next thing to establish.

Rep. Lieu: “Greg Bovino last night made a post that essentially called protesters, ‘cannon fodder.’ He needs to delete that post, or he needs to resign…If Greg Bovino and the administration doesn't turn down the rhetoric, it's going to cause more people to get killed.”

What MAGA doesn’t realize. We liberals can take away a lot of the culture you enjoy by not participating any longer. All those TV shows you like, all that music you listen to everything can be taken away. Maybe artists and creators need to think about this. Let them watch Kevin Sorbo.

The Trump era in a nutshell:
Ordinary citizens are holding ICE accountable, while large law firms are doing nothing.
Small businesses are speaking out, while large corporations remain silent.
Independent media show moral urgency, while legacy media reports "both sides."

The more violent I see ICE and CBP getting the more I"m reminded of Gene Sharp and nonviolence. You cannot respond with violence to the oppressor. We must unfortunately be willing to be brutalized but televised. That’s what they did during the Civil Rights Era. In a democracy it’s the only way.

Like the Kennedy Center people have to start thinking about non-cooperation with MAGA. Artists withdrawing from participation-we all have to in some way. Personally, in our lives is that MAGA person in your life really worth talking to or being around?

On Trump’s latest screed. Donald, ICE isn’t doing what you say it’s doing. It isn’t protecting Minnesota from rapists and criminals. You are racially profiling people of color. You don’t know who is undocumented or not you’re just going up to folks and grabbing them.

This is as much a media war than anything. We can’t let them control the narrative. They’re trying hard and they have Fox News and NewsMax, etc. But we have momentum. #ICEOUTNOW

Watching what Trump, ICE, CBP, FBI, etc. is doing to people of color - whether citizen or not- racially profiling them seems hopeless. But then I remember what John Lewis had to go through. What would John Lewis say to me right now? He’d say suck it up and organize. #ICEOUTFORGOOD

From a good friend in Minneapolis: "Target is allowing ICE to stage in their parking lots, use their restrooms, and abduct people from inside their stores - so if you weren’t boycotting already, now is the time." They were staging in Chicago as well.
