This should concern us all. You cannot speak of freedom and liberty and then support this regime’s actions.

It’s interesting to see the backlash against Ring cameras after that ad. I think many have been skeptical and vocal against it for a long time but I think the ICE operations in cities has perhaps made people more acutely aware of the dangers of mass surveillance.

NEW: Utah officials found thousands of potentially invalid and fraudulent signatures in the GOP’s petition to repeal the state’s voter-approved anti-gerrymandering law.

With the deadline looming and tens of thousands of signatures still needed, the repeal drive seems unlikely to be successful.

Trump, the GOP, and ICE lost the culture war just now.

Completely.

Expect them to lash out tomorrow. More violence. More disappearances. More deaths. Overreaching is all fascists know to do in reaction to a public defeat.

Fight back that much harder.

Across the country, ICE raids are being carried out with excessive force, little transparency, and devastating consequences for families. When enforcement looks like a military operation and accountability is absent, people get hurt and trust in law enforcement breaks down.

I hear from people who are surprised I'm still talking about ICE, they thought they'd withdrawn from MN.

No, they have not. In some respects they've escalated.

Some asked why MN is a target. Are there are there a lot more illegals or criminals here?

No, it's not about that. It's about a grudge.

Why isn’t every politician, leader, prosecutor, and news channels focused on this. The President is accused with significant proof of killing and raping minors.

Tell me how ICE are not domestic terrorists if they instill fear, anger, anxiety, and terror wherever they go. Defunding ice isn’t far enough. Abolishing ICE altogether is the only answer we should accept.

There are a growing number of reports of agents impersonating construction workers, delivery drivers & anti-ICE activists, heightening fears in the state.

That's deceptive & unconstitutional, because they use trickery to get around warrant & consent protections.

ICE is not broken. It's agents murdering people, taking trophies of victims, using illegal tactics, breaking laws, spreading terror, exploiting children, and leaving death cards are not isolated events, outliers, or accidents. ICE is operating exactly as intended.
