You walk into this bar and show your ICE mugshot, you don't pay a dime.
Scrolling through the photos of Pam Bondi's "Minnesota rioters," it's just hero after hero. Every photo includes a cowardly DHS agent with their back to the camera.

Bondi thinks she's going to win the propaganda war with this shit, but it's never been more clear that they're losing.

This is amazing 🫶

On Jan. 26 the Minneapolis hippie diner Modern Times made an announcement: all their menu items are now free, unless you're a federal agent.
The hours will remain the same, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. daily, but the menu will be a bit smaller. The restaurant will run on donations.

“There is a real problem with gender-based violence by ICE agents, and the agency is not taking it seriously.”

I know all eyes are on Minneapolis, but there's a fast-approaching nightmare in Springfield, Ohio.

Trump is revoking protected status for tens of thousands of Haitians living there on Feb. 3.

Reportedly, on Feb. 4, 1000 ICE agents are arriving to remove this population. Ethnic cleansing.

Congressman Tom Suozzi was confronted.
He is one of seven Democrats casting the decisive votes to increase ICE funding by $10,000,000,000. Hideous, grotesque, fascist-loving coward, this man has blood on his hands. We will not forgive him, and we will not forget.

I'm calling bullshit on the media narrative that Trump is "pivoting" and "deescalating" on his ICE raids. The threshold is this: As long as the military occupations and the treatment of US cities as enemy territory continue, there's no pivot. ICE out. 1/

Donald Trump Is Frightened
Trump wants to appear eager to minimize out-of-control clashes between government militias and protesters. But he doesn’t want to stop the things causing those clashes in the first place.

On Friday and Saturday, the Twin Cities were the center of global news. A day of solidarity. A horrific murder of a good man by masked federal agents. A city that rallied with peaceful fury. And then, as of Monday, a scapegoat sent packing. A neat story all wrapped up. Reporters all fly home.

Modern Times is a South Minneapolis staple, and a personal favorite haunt. For the duration of the occupation they're renaming themselves Post Modern Times and going to a donation-only model. Everyone but ICE can eat for free.

A reminder that ICE hasn’t slowed down in Minneapolis at all.

Outside of Minnesota, it might feel like everything has changed since Alex Pretti’s murder. But ICE hasn’t actually lost any power and they’re continuing to terrorize our communities.

Terrifying sonic weapon in MN.
The LRAD truck I discovered (same plate) last July outside Minnesota State Capitol is being used for 1st time (AFAIK) in MN tonight against protesters.

Terrifying sonic weapon.

Fed court (2nd Cir) ruled using LRAD on non violent protesters can be considered 14A violation, excessive force

SHUT THE GOVERNMENT DOWN!

Do not fund the government until a full investigation is performed for Renee Good and Alex Pretti. The agents responsible for their execution must be removed from duty and put on trial.

The American people demand accountability and an end to ICE & DHS brutality!!!
