Turns out the real threat isn’t immigrants - it’s blue zip codes.

This is what happened in our neighborhood yesterday. ICE snatched a human being off of our streets, roughed them up badly, and then pepper sprayed legal observers as they documented it all. This is a daily occurrence happening all throughout Minnesota right now.

There is an area in the ICE detention center in Minneapolis designated specifically for American citizens. Contemplate that for a minute.

I think we are past the point of just putting rules in place to stop or fix ICE. We really need to eliminate ICE and start over again. DO NOT FUND ICE

KRISTI NOEM: Don't say his name! I mean, for heaven's sake, we shouldn't have people continue to dox law enforcement

BRENNAN: His name is public

NOEM: I know, but that doesn't mean it should continue to be said

They're investigating the victim's wife, the victim's friends, the mayor and the governor too, but no, they're not even going to glance in the direction of the murderer.
BREAM: Is the FBI investigating the ICE agent who shot Renee Good?

BLANCHE: What happened has been reviewed by millions of Americans bc it was recorded. We investigate when it's appropriate. That is not the case here. We are not going to bow to pressure. So no, we are not investigating.

These are concentration camps. And these are the numbers they're comfortable sharing.
This is the sixth death in ICE custody in 18 days. This isn’t enforcement, it’s a system that cages people, outsources care, and shrugs when they die. Abolish ICE.

"Kavanaugh stops" have quickly expanded to become "Kavanaugh body tackles" and other forms of "Kavanaugh assaults."

Sadly, the odds are very high that there will be soon be "Kavanaugh summary executions" of Americans whom ICE agents decide aren't Americans.

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.
