Yesterday, a crowd responded to a federal raid in Minneapolis. Today, something similar happened in Chicago.
ICE has facilities and infrastructure. Rather than waiting for ICE to strike and then attempting to react, one could take the initiative, so as to determine the time and place of conflict.

Imagine dismantling the only federal agency dedicated to uplifting minority businesses—
That’s exactly what Trump did.
The MBDA went from nearly 100 employees to just a few.
You don’t gut an agency like that unless you’re trying to kill its mission.
