DHS tweeted this yesterday. Little more than 24 hours later, ICE agents just shot and killed a legal observer in Minneapolis.

CBP just shot a woman "in the face" as she attempted to drive away in Minneapolis. Unconfirmed reports are that she's dead.

Undecided voter: “How can someone like you convince me that my vote matters”

James Talarico: “They wouldn't be trying so hard to stop you from voting if your vote didn't matter — Texas is one of the hardest places to vote in the entire country. That is by design”

Congresswoman Ilhan Omar's son was pulled over by ICE and forced to prove he is an American.

Two options:

1) ICE deliberately targeted him.

2) ICE is stopping all non-White people without any probable cause and forcing them to prove they are citizens.

Hard to say which option is scarier.

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

My lawyer hot take is that the lawyers defending the birthright citizenship EO should be driven from the practice. They shouldn't know a day's rest and should never get to practice law again.

This is your regularly-scheduled reminder that prominent evangelicals have been preaching about “the sin of empathy” for years now. Ben Garret’s take is nothing new.

you won't often see a judge come closer to calling a DOJ attorney a Nazi than Judge Coughenour does here:

"There are other times in world history where we look back and people of goodwill can say where were the judges, where were the lawyers?"
BREAKING, via The Seattle Times: Trump's executive order to restrict birthright citizenship is blocked for at least the next two weeks by a Reagan appointee in Seattle who eviscerated the Trump lawyers present defending the order. www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

HSI/ICE spotted

Heading into downtown this morning and there were several undercover vehicles, a van, and HSI agents near the 36th entrance to 35W. Stay safe.

Saint Paul and Minneapolis will not assist ICE in mass deportation efforts in the twin cities, but they also won’t do anything to stop them.

Remember, cops aren’t your friends.

Would love to see all of the Minneapolis "local politics" chatter to be less about the "local politics" inside baseball and instead what local leadership is going to do to protect community members from ICE, police harm, federal overreach, and everything else facing our community right now.
