Who’s next?
One demotion cannot detract from accountability.
Greg Bovino and Trump’s agents must still be held responsible for the killings and the damage they’ve done to America.

Good afternoon from downtown Chicago, where despite heavy snowfall, thousands have gathered for an anti-ICE/CBP demonstration in solidarity with the Twin Cities. More are still streaming in.
Lt. Illinois Gov. Juliana Stratton just addressed the crowd, and called for ICE to be abolished.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

I took this snapshot this morning waiting for my coffee to brew before I glanced at the news. Should have added an exclamation point!

The entire Trump White House is complicit. Every Member of Congress who voted for a massive increase in ICE funding last summer is complicit. Every Republican in the House who watched Renee Good’s murder & refused to demand Speaker Johnson conduct oversight is complicit. It is eternally damning.

We are at the “Minnesotans are spray painting their broiler pans for body armor” stage of the fight
@statuscoupnews.bsky.social interviewing this woman in Minneapolis right now who said she came out of her home, wearing whatever she could grab to protect herself from ICE agents. You do what you can, with what you got.

This really is the test of this moment and I think it's time we speak with clarity and demand our leaders do the same.
There's hardly a meaningful distinction between ICE and the Gestapo at this point and we might as well confront that.
No reforming an institution which became the gestapo. It must be destroyed.
