None of this is actually particularly effective at immigration enforcement, remember. They likely aren’t deporting much more people than baseline. Sending more than 10% of all of ICE to one city is not a serious strategy. This is own libs by terrorizing and murdering them.

Ultimately we will end up with an aesthetic compromise: they can carry on being brutal, but not in ways that will upset a Nice People
Once again: Focusing on their lack of training is a mistake. With "better training," their violence would simply cost more, and they would still kill whoever they wanted, but make it look more professional — to make people more comfortable, the way many of you are at ease with local police violence.

I have spent my entire adult life being lectured by Republican politicians and conservative legal movement types about how important it is to preserve the sacred constitutional right to self-defense of *specifically this person* and then secret police murdered him in the street
Minneapolis police chief Brian O'Hara says that the victim was a 37-year-old white man and US citizen with no criminal record and that he was a legally permitted gun owner.

Do you know how hard it is to get cops to seemingly side with people shot by a bunch of officers
Minneapolis Police Chief O'Hara: "The video speaks for itself. We have identified this person - 37-year-old, white male, resident of the city. The only interaction that we are aware of with law enforcement has been for traffic tickets and we believe he is a lawfully gun owner with a permit to carry"

These dudes are having a BLAST. I don’t think we talk about it enough. It isn’t just that they’re out there gassing and shooting people or using kids as human shields or whatever. It’s that they are ACTIVELY ENJOYING THIS.

So much for fear eh
I was just watching local filming of ICE agents deploying tear gas canisters into the crowd and shouting: "IT'S LIKE CALL OF DUTY!" They are fully aware they are being filmed and they don't care - these officers want to be seen like this. WOW.

This sure seems more like the tyranny the Constitution is supposed to protect against than forgiving student loans.

What authority does ICE have to arrest or detain citizens who witnessed a homicide?
Per this report ICE has detained several witnesses
ICE attempted to order local police from the scene of the Minneapolis shooting, but the police chief refused and instructed his officers to preserve the crime scene.

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening.

The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

In 1952, there were over 57,000 cases and over 3,000 deaths from polio in the U.S. The vaccine was introduced in 1955. By 1960, the numbers were down to 3,000 and 230. No deaths since 1980.
Breaking News: Rejecting decades of science, the chair of the federal panel that recommends vaccines for Americans said that shots against polio and measles — and perhaps all diseases — should be optional. The vaccines are credited with preventing disability and millions of deaths worldwide.
Vaccine Panel Chair Says Polio and Other Shots Should Be Optional, Rejecting Decades of Science
Dr. Kirk Milhoan, a pediatric cardiologist who leads the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, said a person’s right to refuse a vaccine outweighed concerns about illness or death from infectious diseases.

I mean it’s WHY we have Congress but the Framers didn’t envision it turning into a retirement village
The president can’t declare war or lock someone up without a fair hearing. That’s why we have Congress. That’s why we have courts. That’s why we have a Constitution. Stand up for checks and balances. Protect due process. Protect democracy.

If I had my way I’d Ceaucescu all the consultants
My honest best take on what's happening with ICE funding. I got it down to 10 points:
1) Trump/Miller/GOP want more ICE funding
2) Dem leadership doesn't want it but also doesn't see a way to stop it without focusing attention on it.
3) Dems consultants say focus on ICE is a political loser.

Every white American needs to educate themselves on the history and meaning of “race traitor” and what white power does to those of us who are disloyal to white power.

Remember when these guys lied that they were preserving Confederate monuments because you had to leave up the whole messy contested historical record rather than erasing history?
More than 400 years of history and a decade of advocacy were torn down Thursday afternoon when National Park Service employees removed every single display at the President’s House.

Watching Part 2 of the Mel Brooks documentary and the "the peasants are revolting/you said it, they stink on ice" joke from "History of the World" just jumped off the top rope and flattened my ass. That movie is so goddamn underrated.

USA is going to win the World Cup because of a boycott, lol
I genuinely think boycotting the World Cup is some of the strongest leverage the Europeans have.
A German soccer federation executive committee member says it's time to consider a World Cup boycott because of the actions of U.S. President Donald Trump.
