Making political hay out of this makes you an asshole. A ghoulish one.
If I die under this administration, don’t bother burying me — just dump my body on the White House lawn.

There’s a GoFundMe for Jonathan Ross’s legal expenses for murdering Renee Good.
This violates GoFundMe’s Terms of Service. Everyone must report it.

Bill Ackman appears to have given $10,000 to the GoFundMe for the legal fund for Jonathan Ross, the ICE cop who murdered Renee Good.

Homan: "We gotta stop the hateful rhetoric. Saying this officer is a murderer is dangerous. It's just ridiculous. It's gonna infuriate people more which means there's gonna be more incidents like this."

Few people are as good as @jamellebouie.net at breaking down this kind of analysis and walking us through it in clear and compelling language. Here he takes on Matt Walsh's comment that "international law is fake and gay" and breaks it down for fifteen minutes, every one of them splendid.

Ranger handed me the keys to the Bronco. "I'll drive the BMW, and you can follow."
Normally a person would take his cars home. Since Ranger wasn't normal I wasn't sure where we were headed.

One detail about the MPLS ICE invasion that I haven't seen many comment on: these goons drive like maniacs and they're eventually going to run someone over. They speed, run red lights every chance they get, and because they don't know the roads, they're constantly going the wrong way down one-ways.

You are doing the right thing. It sucks to be under siege but you are under siege. And you won't be free while these law enforcement agencies continue to exist.
I can't describe how bad Minneapolis feels right now. My neighbors are pulling kids out of school. The public schools are offering remote learning until 2/12. We are having conversations in our alleys about how to protect ourselves. It feels like a military occupation with a blockade.
The US Department of Agriculture suspends all federal funding to Minnesota, effective immediately.

I’ve been in the streets in Minneapolis 4 of the last 5 days. We are way past “know your rights” we need to retake our rights. They are shooting us when we exercise those rights. This is a lawless regime.

This is clear evidence that Jonathan Ross harbors white supremacist sympathies, but — maybe even more crucially — it demonstrates a history of anger and open resentment of women with left-leaning views.

If there are *any* Democrats in Congress who will still vote to keep funding this administration when it is using that money to terrorize our cities and refusing to allow congressional representatives their clear right to observe their activities, then those reps need to be primaried into retirement
I was just denied access to the ICE processing center at the Whipple Building.
Members of Congress have a legal right and constitutional responsibility to conduct oversight where people are being detained.
The public deserves to know what is taking place in ICE facilities.

The moment that anybody outside the DHS apparatus gets inside one of these facilities without cleaning up beforehand, we're going to see things that even the most hardened and cynical among us can barely comprehend.

You don't reform this. You can't fix it with "better training."

"Learned what?" she asks

We evacuated our kids out of Minneapolis this weekend and my spouse reports that as she drove them out of town she saw "multiple freeway exits where people are being pulled over." It feels like the Twin Cities is being subjugated by a hostile occupying force.

The easy answer for Machado is just to order a cheap medallion from Medals R Us or whatever and write "NOBEL" on it in gold Sharpie. He would absolutely not know the difference.

Plausible. But another explanation is that they see the writing on the wall--generational backlash--and they're attempting increasingly desparate hail marys

I think the more important question here that no one is asking (or wants to ask) is: would cops even be willing to arrest their buddies? And if they refuse, what does that mean? And if they agree, do we now have a war between different state and federal militarized US agencies?
This is a bullshit answer. With very few exceptions the ICE guys do not want to die for this regime. Conceding the law to the imagined threat of violence is asinine. If “your” cops feel this way that’s their problem, too.

"The question that you're basically asking is, can our cops arrest them? From a legal perspective, yes. From a practical perspective...they have bigger guns than we do." That's where we're at.
