Any Democratic votes to fund DHS later this month as Minneapolis is being terrorized by DHS is going to be a major slap in the face to Americans living here. Demand major reforms or shut the government down.

No, we don't have the resources right now for a general strike. We don't have the rent and food funds or the bail funds or the child and healthcare funds.

But the response to that isn't "welp, we're fucked, so much for a general strike."

It's to start organizing those things in your community.

It wasn't shame that made him say he was a botanist.

I guarantee he believes he's practicing OPSEC.

These Nazis are devoid of shame.
Making them feel shame is praxis.
“Minneapolis ICE shooter told longtime neighbor he was a botanist,” @people.com reports.

"He said he worked with plants, as a botanist, so he lied about what he did," she said.

DHS hired exactly who they wanted to hire and trained them to do exactly what they wanted them to do. Which is what you see.

Democrats are simultaneously beginning to refer to ICE and CBP agents as "poorly trained."

This message comes from leadership. They're trying to use it as a substitute for dismantling ICE and CBP and imprisoning their current employees. Don't fall for it; don't take any Dem seriously who uses it.

The way America relies on Black activists to protect them from their own decisions should be studied. Not by me though.

Governor Walz needs to mobilize the National Guard because it is abundantly clear that ICE is acting with reckless abandon for safety and disrupting people’s lives.

Everything Trump claimed he needed the Guard for here in CA is what his goons are actually committing in MN.
Trump's thugs are going hog wild and tossing gas around in one of the busiest commercial districts in Minneapolis, just a mile or so from where I live. Complete insanity.

Tim Walz needs to activate the national guard and put a stop to this. These electeds are cowards. They need to stand up for their citizens instead of just meekly standing by and filing lawsuits.

DO SOMETHING. Your citizens are being brutalized by a hostile occupying force.

I can think of a couple faster ways that don't involve letting the DHS umbrella continue to terrorize your citizens for the next several months while the courts drag their feet.
Minnesota Attorney General announces the state is filing a lawsuit against DHS:

"We ask that the courts will end the surge of thousands of DHS agents into Minnesota. We ask the courts to end the DHS' unlawful behavior in our state, the intimidation, the threats, the violence."

I'm not sure most people have any idea how often the answer to "why can't I get the municipal service I want" is "because the police union sends their heavies to budget meetings"

I heard WILD stories from a friend who was the arts rep to a midsized town's council. the cops basically had veto power!
Meanwhile the Minnesota FOP literally released a statement saying "We stand arm in arm with ICE"

Local PD don't give a single fuck about regular citizens.

Nope, this is a fallacy.

The military will do what it's told and federal authority over the Guard has routinely trumped state authority.
If there is any armed service that might be productive, it'd be the National Guard, as its mostly filled with normies, but even that is iffy.

Considering MN cops rolled up protestors the other night and not ICE agents who spent their day terrorizing a city, I find this deeply unconvincing.
Trump is turning Minnesota into a test case for federal abuse of power. After lies, raids, and a deadly ICE escalation, Tim Walz is done campaigning and ready to fight back.

the only reason "abolish ICE" is seen as radical is that no one will say it but the far left. if every normie Democrat started saying it tomorrow it would move the overton window so far you'd have to squint to find it. my kingdom for leaders who understand they can shape public opinion.
Democrats officially going all in on the mealy mouthed “ICE needs training” narrative.

No. ABOLISH ICE.
WARNER: It used to take 5 to 6 months to get trained. They've now lowered the training period to 47 days. Why 47 days? Because Donald Trump's the 47th president. Tell me that's a rational approach

KERNEN: I'm not taking that bait

WARNER: Joe! You can't pick your facts

You notice how thousands and thousands of cops aren't coming out to condemn Jonathan Ross for senselessly killing Renee Good?

This is what people mean by "all cops are bastards". If this were any other profession, the entire group would condemn it. With cops it's the reverse, they all justify it.
