Conversely: if politicians want votes, they need to convince voters to vote for them.

Kamala didn't.
Clinton didn't.

Stop blaming people who spent months and months watching children get blown up for the loss of one politician who couldn't get her act together.

American Indian Movement (AIM) patrol trucks have been spotted around NE and folks are flagging them as suspicious and giving them unwelcoming glances because they don’t know who they are. This is the AIM logo and flag, which you might see on their trucks. They are friends!

I wrote a quick blog post in 2014 titled "police reforms you should always oppose." It went viral and became the basis of a chart created by Critical Resistance to evaluate abolitionist steps. Money for training and body cams were the first two on my list.

"Training" as "reform" would just give ICE more money to train its agents to maim and kill people.

Not a penny for ICE.

Claw back the current funding.

Defund and abolish.
The agent who killed Good *was a trainer*

The rot is *deep* in the barrel

My heart goes out to these women.

This administration is creating more radicals than they're eliminating in record time.

Fuck ICE.
NEW — ICE violence has spread well beyond Minneapolis, with agents landing in small cities like St. Cloud. I spoke with Alice Valentine, a local queer trans woman, who protested ICE on Monday and was pepper sprayed, beaten and jailed as a result, along with her girlfriend.

This is Alice's story:

🚨NEWS: Senate Dems are reportedly offering ICE funding increases in exchange for body cams and de-escalation training for agents.

Body cams can be turned off. De-escalation training can be ignored.

Unclear if no masks, requiring ID badges, and no immunity is on the table.

Also: @merkley.senate.gov dispelled folks of the notion that Congress will fix this.

It's us, y'all. The force of the people leveraging our power is what will fix this. GOP won't do their job unless they're afraid of us. Dem leadership has to be dragged to the line to defend it. It's us.

@merkley.senate.gov I didn't get to ask my question at your town hall today.

It was: there is insufficient and incapable leadership in the Senate Dems. They still want to fund ICE? What are you doing to secure leadership equipped to meet this moment and defend our safety and our rights?

I also have the total right to criticize prospective candidates years before primaries even occur.

I guess people like McLaughlin know they have no future so they are making as much money as they can off this illegitimate administration.
Unbelievable. Kudos to the CNN host for her pushback but she let the liar keep right on talking.

Austin: Armed federal agents, presumably ICE/CBP, were observed staging vehicles yesterday afternoon at Brodie Oaks shopping center, in front of the abandoned Toys R Us. Around 6 PM they moved down the hill to the Barton Creek Plaza office park by the Barton Creek green belt entrance.

I find it necessary these days to affirm the obvious because the descent into fascism is mostly a continuous, not discrete, process so here it goes:

these are internal checkpoints by secret police for what is routine freedom of movement.
It’s been reported locally, but I’m not sure how much national notice this has gotten. As part of this invasion by shithead goons, they are putting ICE agents in jetbridges and other parts of the airport at Minneapolis-Saint Paul. If you are flying Delta via MSP, you are putting yourself at risk.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents will begin checking documents of travelers and workers at MSP airport, with patrols inside jet bridges.

What is astounding is not only how much everyone in the administration tries to use the same tactics that Trump uses when they open their trash mouths, but also how absolutely bad at it they are.
CNN: What do you say to people who watch these videos & worry Minnesota is becoming a police state?

McLAUGHLIN: There's a lot of fear-mongering going on by the media

CNN: Let me correct you. They are watching these videos & using their independence of mind

McLAUGHLIN: No. Actually it is the media
