ICE’s aggressive and dangerous tactics do nothing to make our communities safer. Due process is not delivered with aggression and violence.

I’m fighting to stop ICE from terrorizing our communities.

His 6 month old stopped breathing & all the children were hospitalized!

Arnoldo Bazan, a 16-year-old U.S. citizen, was put in a chokehold by ICE agents.

Agents took his phone, which he tracked to a used electronics vending machine near an ICE detention center.

Yes: ICE is stealing and selling people’s things after brutalizing them. There are no words.

It's official. The US Government considers the murder of a US citizen not immediately complying commands "not worth investigation." The officers won't face charges, punishment, or even slight reprimand.

Stay dangerous. Keep each other safe.

This shit gets worse.

Having seen several abductions up close, it is really hard to convey how much the thing they’re doing is roaming in military convoys until they see someone who is alone and isn’t white, and then jumping out in large numbers, pulling them into a van, and screeching off, all in 90 seconds or so.
"“They specifically asked me if I knew where the Hmong families lived on my street & in the neighborhood.” Lugert-Thom responded, “I don’t know anything about that” & she said they then asked, “Well, what about the Asian families?”"

"“I was a bit shaken & a bit shocked of what I was asked to do.”"
A St. Paul resident says federal officers knocked on her door and asked her to identify Hmong and Asian households in her North End neighborhood last week.

Folks in the US still like to treat the whole Greenland invasion stuff as sufficiently unserious to engage with, but it is sufficiently serious that NATO allies are actively deploying tripwire forces to deter the US. That is *already* a political and actual cost to them, and to US relationships

I know people on Bsky know this but I hope it filters out: The feds are OCCUPYING the Twin Cities. This is a blockade, a siege. They are shutting down economic and civic activity. They are conducting "papers please" stops. They are criminalizing being a bystander/witness.

You could be next.

Actor Ronald Reagan, backed by Nancy, elected President. 👿 Greed has always been part of our history, but Reagan advanced cowboy individualism, economic inequality, increased natl debt, was anti-union, cut social services, ignored AIDS epidemic, & more. He played a big part in where we are today.
