1. The Trump administration is not conducting its deadly immigration crackdown in Minneapolis alone

Major corporations, including Amazon, Citizens Bank, and AT&T, are enabling — and profiting from — the operation.

Great analysis.

We woke up every morning in Iraq wondering if “today was going to be the day” of an outright massacre of civilians.

One day, it came true.🫤

But it wasn’t us, it was the Blackwater mercenaries- not too dissimilar from the new recruits of ICE, living out their racist fever dreams.

The what now
The single greatest boon to the net worth of Donald J Trump has been sitting as the President of the United States, which would come as a rather shocking surprise to the authors of the emoluments clause

We need to get it broadly understood that Stephen Miller's ethnic cleansing will result in a permanent metastasized immigrant carceral state and paramilitary warfare on US streets that goes on *for years.*

The internal logic of his agenda dictates this of necessity.

Meanwhile in Russia: state TV's experts explained that Moscow is trying to trick Trump into unfreezing Russia's assets, to be used for reconstruction on the territories they want to take from Ukraine. They've admitted there is no chance of a peace deal.

Republicans in Congress could put an end to this national nightmare today if they wanted to. But they don’t. And that makes them accomplices.

we should definitely tear down ICE and then replace it. maybe with some nice community centers or something. social workers, immigration attorneys. you're allowed to do stuff that's good and helps people. it doesn't have to always be gun guys. you have so many different kinds of gun guy already

We had to put up with school shootings because "the 2nd Amendment"
But watch ICE eliminate the right to bear arms by executing anyone they find with a gun and to hell with the 2nd Amendment.
ICE will soon be killing citizens in their own homes because they're scared there might be a gun inside.

It is an attempt to launder violence through language so no one at the top ever has to answer for what happened on the ground.

What should terrify every American is not immigration. It is the sight of armed officers and ICE agents patrolling city streets in full body armor, faces covered, weapons

Since July, I've tracked at least 2,300 cases in which federal judges have ruled ICE has illegally detained people without bond or due process.

This is one that stands out:

Pam Bondi telling Minneapolis that ICE will be recalled *only* when that blue city turns over its voter rolls is a clear reveal that this isn't about immigration. It's about interfering with upcoming elections that may not favor Donald Trump.

It's extortion.
