A CNN reporter struggles to breathe after multiple flash bangs & tear gas canisters were deployed near her.

They should be wearing respirators.

They should be given proper PPE to protect themselves from chemical munitions.

Another example of how ICE enforcement will be a mass disabling event.

This Capricorn stellium that I've barely paid attention is...a lot. And personally, it feels like a big 1st house profection year shot in the arm for me. Focus on me me me and what I want and need.

Nationally, Capricorn is like The Man aka the government, and it's very Scroogey and hostile w/Mars.

I just want it to be really clear, to people from out of the area, if they see pictures of fires in Minneapolis: THEY WERE STARTED BY ICE. NOT BY PROTESTERS. NOT BY RESIDENTS.
So not only are they shooting our citizens they are setting the city on fire. #MFD did respond. Someone get an Air Quality check in #Minneapolis with the volume of Flash Bangs & Chemical Irritants.
🚨BREAKING: Multiple fires have broken after ICE unleashed ANOTHER ONSLAUGHT of flash bang grenades and chemical gas at unarmed Minneapolis protesters in WAR-LIKE attack. LIVE NOW ⬇️

Already heard from folks nearby that, even with windows and doors closed, tear gas is getting into nearby homes.

Our fed govt is making our city less safe.
Tear gas and smoke filling north and northeast Minneapolis tonight on is a perfectly clear winter night in the city.

Keep your windows closed.

Finally making chili tomorrow, on one of the coldest days of the year so far. Oooh and cornbread, too. Can't wait to feast.

Minneapolis is not giving him what he wants they're defending themselves from the extreme violence and warfare that's been visited upon them
State investigators have been on the scene in North Minneapolis.

I know you’re angry. I’m angry. What Donald Trump wants is violence in the streets.

But Minnesota will remain an island of decency, of justice, of community, and of peace.

Don’t give him what he wants.

I should say specifically, one of their albums I'd listen to when I'd walk to a dispensary on sunny spring days.

"At its heart, this is an album about happiness. Messy, complicated, hard-won happiness."
Speaking of the British, Fickle Friends, an indie pop band from Brighton, is comforting me now. I got into them when I moved to Seattle. I associate them with being high...😁

Their eponymous album is like pure sunshine. ficklefriends.bandcamp.com/album/fickle...

I was telling my mom the other day that we've gone from "The British are coming" to "The feds are coming"

Just traded one tyranny for another.

But then my ancestors who made it here (if they did? IDK) weren't even free here 250 years ago.

After ICE agents shot people in Minneapolis tonight, a crowd faced them down and eventually chased them away, despite federal mercenaries and police shooting a tremendous amount of tear gas.

ICE agents abandoned vehicles in the area, containing IDs, paperwork, license plates, and operational plans.

I knew this 250th was going to be American in every way and I really wish it wasn't.

LIke Mad King George laughing at us.
Demonstrators apparently retrieved from the cars belonging to ICE these "challenge coins" that ICE mercenaries receive when they carry out arrests.

This one is decorated with a skull wearing a crown.

ICE mercenaries serve king death. They are evil incarnate.

there's a link in the replies but the long and short of it is: it's zinc chloride, which can basically cause heavy metal toxicity that can cause permanent respiratory damage as well as liver damage.
That green gas is even more dangerous than regularly dangerous gas.

The Hmong are here because they fought for the US in a war we lost.
"“They specifically asked me if I knew where the Hmong families lived on my street & in the neighborhood.” Lugert-Thom responded, “I don’t know anything about that” & she said they then asked, “Well, what about the Asian families?”"

"“I was a bit shaken & a bit shocked of what I was asked to do.”"
A St. Paul resident says federal officers knocked on her door and asked her to identify Hmong and Asian households in her North End neighborhood last week.

BREAKING — Mayor of Lewiston, Maine posts on FB that ICE is coming to the city imminently. This confirms my reporting the agency is planning a surge in the city and state generally.

Lewiston is home to a large Somali-American population, which made up 4.6% of the population as of the 2020 census.

No. They barely salt or shovel anywhere else either
Does Chicago not salt or shovel the streets of Black neighborhoods?

It's so sad that nothing has changed. This is me back in the early 2000s before I got my first cellphone (that I got as a gift):
