Posts may be a bit more sporadic from me today as my kids are home from school because my city is being brutalized by the federal government to the extent that it's unsafe for schools to be open

Today once again proved that everyday citizens protesting their government are braver than the titans who own the largest media corporations, run the biggest law firms and lead the most powerful technology companies.

ICE only has about 20-30,000 employees nationwide. Including desk jobs so there's even fewer armed. It's smaller than the NYPD.

There's a reason they do their mega raids on one or two cities at a time, and it's not optics. It's because that's all the dudes they've got.

Something to keep in mind.

Tomorrow, we all need to call our reps—even and especially MAGA ones, but also feckless Hakeem Jeffries— to voice our urgent support for @robinkelly.house.gov’s impeachment articles against Kristi Noem.

It was public pressure that got the Epstein Files Transparency Act passed. We can’t let this go.

New in PN: Renee Good's killer can and must be prosecuted

"There’s no path to justice that runs through this administration or the federal courts. Hell, Trump will probably give the shooter a medal, and would certainly give him a pardon. But there is a path to justice that runs through Minnesota."

Lotta people get mad at me when I criticize Democratic messaging but THIS IS HOW DEMOCRATS SHOULD BE TALKING. Like normal people using normal language to communicate normal human emotions about the fucked up situation.

THIS.
Q: After you told ICE to get the F out, Republicans are criticizing you for escalating tensions

FREY: I'm sorry if I offered their Disney princess ears, but if we're talking about what's inflammatory, on one hand you got someone who dropped an F bomb & on other you have someone who killed someone

Every damn Democratic congressperson should be physically standing together on the steps of the Capitol and demanding an end to this deadly abuse. Are they really unable to fight back against this despicable propaganda used to justify the killing by ICE and supported by Noem and Trump?

For months, Trump’s DHS has wreaked lawless havoc in our neighborhoods. Tear gassing infants, families, and police. Firing their weapons at peaceful citizens. Killing innocent people.

It’s brutal, unconstitutional, and out of control.

It must stop.

Kristi Noem must go. Now.

The US had dozens of bases in Greenland spanning over seven decades. All but one were shut down because they were deemed unnecessary. Ask nicely and they will probably allow more bases to return as a fellow NATO member. But these greedy imperialist assholes want to take their resources.

What's your actual plan, you feckless, pathetic coward?
Kristi Noem is a stone-cold liar who has zero credibility.

There is nothing to suggest the shooting of an unarmed woman in Minneapolis was justified.

This heinous killing must be criminally investigated to the full extent of the law.

The protests will grow.

All it takes is a spark.

6 years ago it was the murder of George Floyd, caught on camera, just a mile from where this happened.

Now it's ICE murdering Renee Good.

Both times, MAGA and Trump sided with the murderer.

Enough. We have the numbers.
A friend in Minneapolis just sent me this video. Looks like thousands have come together for a vigil after an ICE agent shot and killed 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good. This was my neighborhood for several years before coming to Portland.

Ignore MAGA entirely. It's a cult. Just convince and organize the majority, many of whom are low-information voters.

That's about 70 to 75% of this country. Those are massive numbers.
