It's striking that the federal line is now simply that there is no justifiable or legal means of resistance, defense, or protest, against ICE period. That seems to me like a change/escalation (though I know it's not unprecedented). Either assist ICE or comply with them, or be attacked and slandered.
The actual story is that a family of American citizens trying to evacuate from a neighborhood that ICE had made unsafe, and then ICE tossed munitions into the car, causing three kids to be hospitalized and a six month old to stop breathing. DHS called the family “radical agitators”

elected democrats who want their constituents to remain non-violent in their protests of these abuses must actually offer a path for ending the abuses non-violently. they currently are not as a party and it’s a major problem.
🚨WHOA. The El Paso Medical Examiner says it will rule the death of a 55-year-old Cuban man at ICE's "Camp East Montana" tent camp as a homicide.
He was allegedly choked to death by a guard during a "struggle" after he refused to enter a housing unit without his medications.

21-year-old activist injured by ICE:
I will be blind for life. I have fractures in my skull that they can't fix. They pulled a piece of plastic the size of a nickel out of my eye. I had shards of metal, glass, and plastic behind my eye and in my skull. They said it was a miracle I survived.

Stars & Stripes is a great paper.
📌URGENT: Trump's regime is trying to turn Stars & Stripes into state-run media.

It's MANDATED BY CONGRESS to be an editorially independent paper that reports ON the troops FOR the troops.
So I type this with precision: The draft-dodging, America-attacking slob can KISS MY ASS.

Trump regime ICE troops in Minneapolis chased an unarmed civilian and shot him from behind, hitting his leg, as he ran inside fearing for his life. His family which includes a pregnant woman and children were inside. They called 911 for help as the regime thugs terrorized them.
