Liam himself is five goddamned years old and should be at home with an adult he trusts right now no matter who his parents are. It would not matter if they were literal criminal masterminds, Liam Ramos is a baby and babies do not belong in prison.
Reminder that, as of the latest reports, Liam Ramos is still in prison in Texas - now for 5 days.

His parents are legal asylum seekers with no criminal record.

It’s remarkable how quickly the “everyone shall be armed” Second Amendment Republicans use the fact that a beaten, defenseless man lying on the ground was (maybe) armed as justification for federal agents to execute him.

Please remember that whatever ICE says about this killing will be a pack of lies. Whatever Noem says about this killing will be a pack of lies. Whatever Trump says about this killing will be a pack of lies. Whatever Vance says about this killing will be a pack of lies.
Per this report ICE has detained several witnesses
ICE attempted to order local police from the scene of the Minneapolis shooting, but the police chief refused and instructed his officers to preserve the crime scene.

Someone asked how to help and I truly don't know rn.

Our local support networks are strong, we're all doing everything we can. We just want this occupation to end so kids can go to school and parents can go to work and we can all eat tacos and yell about the terrible local sports teams together.

From this moment forward (and before, but clearly now):

-If you work for ICE.
-If you vote for money for ICE.

You are complicit. This is the gestapo. You're on the wrong side. You can't pretend not to know.

Yesterday, Minneapolis gave us hope. That’s what they’re trying to kill: the will of a people who are willing to fight them.

Very very cold today so I spent the afternoon making bread and soup for dinner. I haven’t felt this small joy in such a long time.

I don’t think people quite understand that the occupation by ICE in the Twin Cities has more or less erased non-white people from public life. They cannot safely exist in any space accessible to the public and moving between private places leaves folks vulnerable to kidnapping by armed masked goons.

Here is Friday, and no Insurrection Act, no strike on Iran. Shooting in Minneapolis, but not full live fire assault. It has been an *awful* week, of deep and terrible losses and suffering. But fascism didn’t take as much ground as it wanted and threatened.

In all seriousness, a lot of Trump Term 2 foreign policy makes more sense under video game logic, where follow-through and long-term relationships usually don't matter.

Press button to get Maduro, move engineers to Venezuela, wealth score up.

Add Greenland, territory score up.

I haven’t (and most likely won’t) watch the recently released video but I swear I can hear that “fucking bitch” in my head clear as day. The snarling hate and disgust. Every woman has heard it.

Took fascism five years to assemble the full curriculum of lies it released as its fully polished false history of J6 yesterday. This—nearly every word a lie—took hours.

I don’t mean to sound extreme, but I don’t think we should have torture camps for people with criminal records either.
