The fact that every right winger with influence screams "who is paying for all of this" tells you exactly how awash in cash they all are, and how much they rely on that to keep their movement afloat.
James O'Keefe says he's never seen anything so organized as the anti-ICE movement, observers--he seems to think this term is code--everywhere he goes. Who is paying for it??? he demands to know. It's like he can't even imagine people caring for one another.

Begging the Republicans currently shooting us in the face to suddenly do the right thing is Democrats’ version of thoughts & prayers
Just stop. Enough is enough. President Trump and Kristi Noem need to call ICE agents back.
We stand with the people of Minnesota. President Trump needs to listen to Governor Walz and end this operation now.

Pam Bondi's conditions for Minnesota: 1) give us all your state data on your food programs, including SNAP 2) repeal all your sanctuary policies in the state (since it has led to "so much crime and violence") and 3) hand over your state voting rolls. Letter here: www.fox9.com/news/minneap...

One wrestling company has its wrestlers publicly supporting trans rights & LGBTQ representation, publicly speaking (in Spanish, in Mexico!) on immigrant solidarity, and doing a THIRD RUN of ABOLISH ICE shirts where 100% of the proceeds go to people affected by ICE.
Another is complicit.

The 2nd Amendment has always been about allowing conservatives to stand their ground & kill whoever they want, while justifying executing their political enemies who try to protect themselves

Minneapolis protester as he's being brutalized by feds: "You're gonna have to kill me! You're gonna have to kill me! I've done nothing wrong! My name is Matthew James! I'm a US citizen! You're gonna kill me! Is that what you want?" (You can hear his wife screaming)

We cannot keep living like this and people can’t keep dying like this. Stop funding DHS. Impeach Kristi Noem. Hold these agents accountable.

“You cannot and should not trust anything coming from … this administration in general”: correct. That also holds — as the hand-in-hand cooperation illustrated by the screenshot below indicates — for Fox News.
We don’t even have to speculate. The bare facts are that you cannot and should not trust anything coming from ICE, CBP, DHS, or this administration in general.
They are not reliable. And they don’t have our interests at heart.

Yeah, I saw, and I don’t like to get conspiratorial, but I at this point would 100% believe that each ICE agent is issued a ghost gun as part of their standard kit to plant on victims if something like this happens.

The last few years have seen the largest wave of immigration in American history. All those images we carry in our heads about people arriving at Ellis Island — we just surpassed that. Crime went down. Real wages went up. This is a fake problem. Enough is enough.

We don’t have a meaningful opposition party in the U.S. right now and there’s no good excuse for it.
we actually need to band together and let the dems know we will never donate another cent or vote for the party again if a single member of the party votes to give a single cent to ice ever again

I'd only add, if you vote to fund ICE, there's no denying that's the mission you're supporting now. You're also complicit
ICE has now carried out two summary executions of innocent people in the streets of an American city.
If you work for ICE, there's no denying that's the mission you're supporting now. You don't get to claim in one year or ten or twenty that you didn't know what ICE was doing. You're complicit.

Then ICE executed Renee Good & Dems threw up their hands & said nothing we can do

Initial report is that two observers got into a shoving match with eight agents, one observer was wrestled to the ground, and then an ICE agent pulled out a sidearm and shot the man on the ground five times.
