Trump is sending 1,000 more ICE agents to Minnesota right in time for the State's forecasted temperature to be around zero degrees Fahrenheit (-17.8 Celsius).

Say, you know WHO ELSE'S troops got bogged down by winter conditions they weren't prepared for?

Pritzker: The Insurrection Act is designed for circumstances where your rights can’t be protected by local authorities

This is exactly the opposite.

Your civil rights are being infringed upon by CBP and ICE, and then they want to call in troops claiming that they’re protecting CBP and ICE.

Not only is Trump doubling down on blaming the victim, just like with the 2 dozen+ women he sexually assaulted, but the FBI pulled the plug on collaborating with the Minnesota state authorities.

They are hiding their ICE shooter like a common Epstein file.

So *I check notes* now it's perfectly okay for drivers to hit protesters if they feel their lives are in danger, but if a driver tries to flee because they're in genuine fear of their lives, it's open season.
