US Olympic Curling Team member speaks out against ICE:

"I'm proud to represent Team USA. But we'd be remiss if we didn't mention what's going on in Minnesota and what a tough time it's been. What's happening is wrong. There's no shades of gray."

A stunning detail the ICE chief shared in this hearing that was supposed to be a brag, except it isn't: ICE has arrested 379,000 people between Jan. 2025-Jan. 2026 -- but only 8,700 were suspected gang members or known suspected terrorists.

That's 2%! www.huffpost.com/entry/latest...

Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, and yes.

We must not fund ICE. The Constitution gave Congress the power of the purse. Congress must use that power aggressively and fearlessly if our country is to survive.

ICE is bad, in whatever form!

@alfranken.bsky.social

Don’t look away from MN. ICE is still wreaking havoc across the state - changing their tactics to deceive Minnesotans - pretending to be construction workers or folks delivering groceries. Still over 2,000 ICE agents in the state. They’re not going anywhere, your anger and outrage shouldn’t either.

The NYT says Democratic proposals for reforming ICE are “facing blowback.”

But blowback from who? Not the people! Polls show support for most reforms exceeds 60%, with some ideas reaching as high as 94% of the public!

Anyone still contending that ICE has any interest in stopping illegal activity is still either ignorant, lying, or a sociopath.

This is about racism, fear mongering, and political tribalism.

Minnesota House DFL @mnhousedfl.bsky.social · 1d

Police in Bloomington, MN just announced that one of the guys they arrested in an underage sex trafficking sting was a **background checker for ICE agents.**

He had a high security clearance in the Trump administration... and he was caught trying to abuse children. Sickening.

@dbrauer.net

2/ While we must center ICE’s crimes against non-citizen immigrants, a message that needs underlining nationally is 59% of Minnesota *citizens* fear ICE, which has no jurisdction over them. Obviously true after Good/Pretti murders, but reflects daily assaults/threats. Even 53% of Greater Mn agrees!

Poll question: Do you agree or disagree with the following statement: Regular, law- abiding, citizens have nothing to fear from the U.S. Immigration and Custom Enforcement (ICE) and Border Patrol.
