It really pays to remind ourselves frequently that this whole immigration "crisis" is made up out of whole cloth. There was no emergency,danger or problem, only a demagogue stirring up racist grievances for political advantage.

As a veteran who’s deployed, I know exactly what “in theater” means. It’s a military term for operations in foreign countries. Using it to describe Minneapolis isn’t accidental…and I can’t overemphasize how dangerous that language shift is.

Only 19% of Republicans think shooting women in the face and snatching children on their way home from school is "going too far", in case you still believe these monsters are worth talking to. They're reveling in the atrocities.

Minneapolis has a population of less than 450k so if the estimates of 50,000 marching today are even close then a full 10% of the city showed up. Trump and ICE have no answer if we can get just 10% of us to fight back.
A coworker took this from her apartment. I haven't seen a crowd this size before. Maybe the first Women's March? But it was much much warmer that day. ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA!
