Since we published this, Pam Bondi's X account has started posting mugshots of Minnesotans arrested for impeding ICE/CBP. Sharing a defendant's photo publicly in this way is forbidden under DOJ rules
ICE and CBP are at the head of Trump's campaign to terrorize Minnesotans. But the Justice Department is not far behind.
ICE’s No. 1 Ally
The Department of Justice has rushed to shield federal agents from accountability and launched needless criminal investigations into Minnesota officials and residents.

That’s why it matters that in the United States, the 50 states run elections. There will be elections. If you are age 18 & and American citizen, please register to vote, make a plan to vote and VOTE. 🗳️
He already wasn't going to hold elections. Yes, it's more obvious now, but it was always true. He was obsessed with his vote counts, insisted they rigged every election and already tried to overturn the results once. There aren't gonna be elections

Noem resigns? Great, defund and dismantle ICE.
Go after Stephen Miller too. Bring charges against ICE thugs at the state and local level. Lawsuits. New state laws restricting them.
