This is stunning. Listen to this in Philadelphia.

Thousands singing “Hey-Oh, we won’t be silent while our friends are gunned down.”

Really listen to it.

"One of ours, all of yours" is a combat mentality.

It has no place in ANY law enforcement operation/agency. Period.
DHS launched a new policy: "One of ours, all of yours."

Do they want VBIEDs? Because this is how you get VBIEDs on American streets. They're literally trying to create an insurgency.

Democrats who want to abolish ice should start introducing legislation to roll back the creation of DHS. It was a specific post 9/11 law that combined previously extant functions into a single new department. Let’s start getting that model legislation out there. (Is it already?)

Many thousands of people in Minneapolis protesting after the brutal murder of Renee Good by the MAGA regime’s ICE-Gestapo thugs. This is how you resist and this is what the entire United States needs to look like and soon.

A day after Renee Good’s brutal murder, racist dog murderer Kristi Noem responds by initiating new policy which bans Congressional visits to ICE-Gestapo concentration camps without a week’s advance notice.

A massive cover up in broad daylight. She should be in jail.

In another act of evil cruelty, the MAGA regime has frozen all food stamp payments from the federal govt to Minnesota.

Minnesota should respond by no longer paying any federal taxes.

Blue cities should tear up the roads in front of ICE facilities and then start decades of community engagement and input sessions to rebuild them. Let's harness our core competencies.

This is what Minneapolis is like right now: City staff in city uniforms are being harassed by fed immigration enforcement for being not white.

It is impossible to overstate the degree to which the entire national political media's coverage of the 2024 presidential campaign, especially once Harris won the nomination, was deeply, fundamentally, shamefully unserious about the stakes & the candidates.
I can still recall all the tut-tutting from the media when Harris made this argument.
Kamala Harris at her closing campaign rally:

"Donald Trump intends to use the United States Military against American citizens who simply disagree with him."

In case you’re wondering, this is Army driving. Go fast, never slow down, never signal what you’re going to do. To not makes you a target. It’s how you’re taught to drive in a war zone, not a US city.
One detail about the MPLS ICE invasion that I haven't seen many comment on: these goons drive like maniacs and they're eventually going to run someone over. They speed, run red lights every chance they get, and because they don't know the roads, they're constantly going the wrong way down one-ways.

We visited Renee Good's memorial.

There, we met a group of Somali Minnesotans — who too have been viciously attacked for weeks — warmly hosting everyone.

Flowers & stuffed animals galore.
Neighbors continually offering sambusas & hand-warmers & water.
Grief. And belief.

These 75 Democrats joined Republicans to "express gratitude" to ICE agents and call for greater local and state collaboration with ICE.

Ok so we are at the "Feds are weapons drawn and a hair trigger away from executing members of Congress" stage now
JUST NOW: Huge mass of agents in a standoff, weapons drawn as Reps. Ilhan Omar, Angie Craig, and Kelly Morrison attempt to conduct congressional oversight at the Whipple Building, which has been HQ for thousands of ICE agents.

All this money for what is essentially a grift. Anybody who teaches can tell you LLMs in education have a net negative on learning.

Agents box in a vehicle, block attempts to flee, then fire
WSJ investigation: In the past 6 months ICE agents have fired at vehicles 13 times, leading to:

* 8 people shot
* 5 of which were U.S. citizens
* 2 died
* no victims drew a weapon

The playbook: Agents box in a vehicle, block attempts to flee, then fire

Today I saw easily 100 people standing on bridges over the Beltway in the cold and pouring rain, all there to protest ICE.
The response to the ICE killing of Renee Nicole Good is not what the White House was expecting.

Like with their hiding of the Epstein files, part of the fundamental problem they are facing is that the stories the Trump administration has built their movement on are being shown for their emptiness.
