Senate Democrats say they won't vote for ICE funding without reforms. Good.

Now, we must negotiate hard.

At least five demands must be non-negotiable before the bill comes to the House:

Secretary Noem has forfeited her right to lead. I’m calling on her to resign.

Gregory Bovino must also be fired.

No one, not an ICE agent, not a federal officer, not a president, is above the law.

Looks like the guy who murdered him had a clear view of his empty holster.
The Washington Post published a clear video of federal agents removing Alex Pretti's handgun moments before he was fatally shot. There's nothing in the video to suggest Pretti even reached for his weapon.

ICE took the flower man in Echo Park 40 minutes ago. He’s at this corner every day. I’ve bought flowers from the man and woman here for anniversaries and birthdays. Lemmy loves to smell them whenever we walk by in the mornings. I was just at the street corner 15 minutes before it happened. Fuck.

I hope all Americans realize our national threat assessments are now being completed without foreign intelligence help, since allies realized Trump’s crew of chodes couldn’t wait to rush their vital intelligence to Putin.

They don’t want the videos because they reveal the truth. The footage isn’t the problem, the lies are.

When DHS talks, the story collapses. When people film, truth holds.

We bear witness because power lies best in the dark. If they won’t tell the truth, we must.

Warning, violent imagery⚠️

I've been reticent to share these videos because I know many are sensitive to violence, but after reading Chris's post, I see how it's important for people to see the lies about what the government told us about what happened with their own eyes.

Believe your own eyes!

ICE agents are America's failures, basically indistinguishable from lazy school shooters, losers who want to play Call of Duty on our streets against people who can't fight back. They have unlimited ammo and toss tear gas like they're pressing L1. They have to be defunded and jailed. All of them.

I'm on site where a federal agent shot a Minneapolis man this morning. It's bad.

Dozens of federal agents are facing off with hundreds of outraged residents. People being tear gassed, helicopters above, I keep hearing pops, and lots of loud BANGS.

This smoke is from tear gas:

On the execution in Minnesota: Obviously, the individuals involved should be held accountable. But responsibility goes to the top of ICE and CBP, and DHS. Their appropriations come up next week in the senate. Not a cent for DHS without pulling ICE and CBP off the streets, in MN and everywhere else.

From this moment forward (and before, but clearly now):

-If you work for ICE.
-If you vote for money for ICE.

You are complicit. This is the gestapo. You're on the wrong side. You can't pretend not to know.
