I’ve now seen videos from both the mayor of Minneapolis and the governor Tim Walz, and both of them look like they have not slept in weeks
Frey: "This is not sustainable. This is an impossible situation our city is being put in. We cannot be at a place in America where we have 2 governmental agencies literally fighting one another. We are put in this position b/c we have approximately 600 police officers & there are 3,000 ICE agents."

It used to be that victims of murders in the U.S. would be smeared by InfoWars and Gateway Pundit as a way to fetishize guns and violence for ad dollars and supplement sales, with the added benefit of cozying up to far-right politicians. Now that work is done by CBS News.

I implore my fellow Dems not to overthink this. You can just say - I’m against the government shooting people in the face for no good reason. This is not hard. Same with the ludicrous invasion of Greenland. Democrats are anti-invasion of Greenland bc it’s the dumbest thing ever. Be ruthlessly blunt.
New CNN polling:

Most Americans see an immigration officer’s fatal shooting of Renee Good as an inappropriate use of force. Roughly half view it as a sign of broader issues with the way ICE is operating, w/under 1/3 saying that ICE operations have made cities safer.

I will never forget the year it hit -40 windchill and the governor shut down the state because seriously, YOU WILL DIE REALLY FAST.

Can’t wait for ICE to experience it.
To any ICE agents reading this who are from down south—you have never experienced anything like this cold. Our European climate equivalent is literally Stalingrad. It will hurt to breathe. You will be outside in it. So will we, but we are used to it.

Next week is what will break you.
We've lead charmed weather lives so far in January.
Temperatures are +5F to +10F across MN so far this month. 🌡️
We're about to be reminded what persistent cold and occasional snow feels like. ❄️
MSP could bottom out -10 to -20 next Tue.

They don't seem to realize that the video of them abusing a legal observer is probably worse than whatever video the legal observer had already obtained of them.
New video shows ICE agents detaining a US citizen legal observer in Minneapolis.

The agents smashed his car window, dragged him out, and placed a knee on his neck.

Something horrifying is happening in America: Because he was filming ICE Nazis, whuch is protected under the constitution, an American citizen in St. Paul, Minnesota was brutalized to the point of becoming unresponsive. What happened in Nazi Germany is happening in America. 😳👇

What? Why? Who does this help?
Today at 34 & Park in Minneapolis, a woman tried to drive down the street where a protest had broken out in front of a home ICE was raiding, saying she had a doctor apt to get to. ICE agents busted out her windows, cut off her seatbelt, and pulled her out before arresting her.

A while ago I had reason to look up the frequency of spree shootings in the USA, and discovered there were just four in the 1970s. FOUR in TEN YEARS.

Today they're running at two a day. Factor of 700 increase in frequency.

Heads up: as noted by the author, @tkingfisher.com's Nettle & Bone is on UK/IE Kindle sale, for £2 aka €2.30 or so, which is about US$2.67, so I got 6 copies for giveaway someday.
I think tomorrow is when they start? It happens a few times next month.

Hang on, I have an email!

AOC: What we saw today was a criminal murder a woman while she was trying to flee for her life. What we saw today was a manifestation of every American’s worst nightmare: their government turning into a tyranny.

AOC: ICE has less accountability than virtually any law enforcement agency in the U.S., yet they are some of the most well-funded, operating with impunity—and we just saw them murder an American citizen in cold blood in the street.
