Kind of weird being at the center of what might be a world-historical event. I can’t say I like it, but here we are, I guess. Your life is defined by making the most of the random circumstances in which you find yourself.

America has two major parties:

One party exists to serve the demented whims of our Nazi Pedophile Mad King.

One party isn’t sure whether to fund his lawless goons who are shooting legal observers in the face.

We need to end the two party system.

Unclear to me if this fucking five year old kid getting kidnapped is breaking through outside of the Twin Cities and I don’t want to speak for anyone else but this has really steeled my resolve. This shit cannot be allowed to stand.

It’s amazing the full force of the federal gov’t law enforcement apparatus is being deployed to Minnesota because the cruel dipshits in charge refuse to believe that white folks are willingly putting their lives on the line to protect their neighbors. They think there must be a nefarious reason.

Respectfully, look at this fucking bullshit that we’re dealing with, not a single person here has “taken the bait.” We have born witness as little kids are used as bait and neighbors are kidnapped on our streets. A mad dipshit is going to invoke the Insurrection Act regardless and you are blaming us
Violence only helps Trump & may provide him an excuse to further trample our rights by invoking the Insurrection Act.

A thing that might not be clear from the outside is that while everyone here is engaged in this fight, ICE’s use of dystopian technology means that you essentially have to pick a lane between observing ICE and doing mutual aid. They are tracking observers’ cars, and taking pictures of their faces.

Here's a conspiracy theory - the people who have fraudulently overextended themselves re: the AI bubble have asked Trump to tank the global economy to hide that the next big recession is going to be their fault.

This new whistleblower report is on par with the Zelensky call - not just because it’s violative of law - but because they also tried to keep people from seeing it. I’ve been doing this for a long time and this is absolutely explosive news. Impeachable and criminal. Swift accountability must follow.

Whistleblowers just shared a memo showing DHS instructing ICE to force their way into peoples' houses without a proper warrant. Why is this not on all the networks right now? This is a criminal conspiracy to violate rights under color of law.

The old dude protesting on the street corner has gone from a nicely printed anti-ICE yard sign to a hand-scrawled cardboard sign with “Fuck ICE” written in sharpie, and he’s standing out there on a cold windy, snowy night
