Liam Ramos's story is shocking enough, but to make the story even more disturbing: Liam isn’t the only child or even the only 5-year-old jailed where he is now.

Georgia Fort, an independent journalist in Minnesota, was also among those arrested.

In her video, she says that she was told by the agents who came to her door that this came out of a grand jury.
Minnesota based Independent Journalist GEORGIA FORT has been arrested for filming a protest of the church pastor that works as an ICE manager. SPREAD THE WORD! Georgia has been doing outstanding reporting from ground zero!

Jesus Christ. The "pivot" lasted about 15 minutes.

Arresting a black journalist under the Ku Klux Klan Act for covering a pro-immigration protest at a Christian nationalist church led by an ICE officer is the perfect encapsulation of this administration's authoritarianism, racism, and trolling.
NEWS: The Trump regime has arrested Don Lemon in its latest crackdown on journalism after he reported from inside a church protest in Minnesota—despite a magistrate judge previously rejecting the case against him as unsupported by evidence.

If Dhillon is suggesting Lemon was criminally charged under the Ku Klux Klan Act, and that supposedly makes him a "klansman," then he has company:

Donald J. Trump, who was charged under that statute for his attempt to subvert the 2020 election.

Arresting journalists. Good God.
Georgia Fort, an independent journalist and vice president of the Minnesota NABJ chapter, was also arrested by federal agents this morning

I was sent this video of agents at her door:

"News outlets across the political spectrum need to loudly defend [independent journalists Don] Lemon’s and [Georgia] Fort’s rights. Journalists are not making themselves the story, Trump is.”

Buttigieg: Most people who voted for Trump weren't voting for the idea that an American citizen could be pushed to the ground, have federal agents take his gun away, and then shoot him up to 10 times. I don't think Americans were voting for immigration police to get more funding than the FBI itself.

FOUR journalists were arrested. Proving again that this administration isn’t “pivoting” or “turning down the temperature.” By targeting independent journalists instead of the murderers of Pretti and Good, this is ramping up. Not winding down. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...
Don Lemon arrested by federal authorities after protest at Minnesota church service
Attorney General Pam Bondi said in a Friday post on X that Lemon was arrested alongside three others "in connection with the coordinated attack on Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota."

Americans made a grave mistake born of nihilism, ennui, and willful ignorance: voters of both parties (and no party) elected politicians—with the exception of a few Democrats—with no moral fiber, principles, or courage.

So scattered activists are battling fascists and fascism essentially alone.

Trump's default to extortion has a tendency to backfire: Will it do so here?
JUDGE: "Your position is that it doesn’t matter how clear that the quid pro quo."

She asks whether the government claims it "cannot involve anti-commandeering" if it’s in the law enforcement arena.

Chris Madel didn’t just exit the Minnesota governor race, he walked away from the Republican Party itself, saying he cannot support “retribution” against the people of this state. When punishment replaces governance and fear replaces law, even party insiders bolt.

Know that this presumed insurrectionist will execute you if he feels like it, having been told he has absolute immunity and knowing he won't be investigated (and would be pardoned if somehow convicted). Know that state investigators will be obstructed in investigating your death.

The safest thing for any American civilian to do at this point is to assume that every ICE or CBP agent you encounter is a pardoned violent January 6 insurrectionist with demonstrated homicidal urges toward those they disagree with politically and choose your actions accordingly.

We’ll use ICE to murder US citizens and terrorize your cities unless you give us your voter records so we can rig the election for Trump in 2028.
