Arresting journalists.

Fatally shooting protestors.

Turning the military on citizens.

Attempting to rig elections.

Toying with the idea of declaring martial law.

If this were happening in another country, what would you call it?

Mendicants, suppose it rains heavily on a mountain top, and the water flows downhill to fill the hollows, crevices, and creeks. As they become full, they fill up the pools...

Federal "agents" do not double as judges.
And these three did not commit any "crimes" punishable by death in our country.
Abolish ICE in MN and countrywide.

Terrorism is the calculated use of violence or threat of violence to induce fear, intending to coerce governments or societies to achieve political, religious, or ideological goals. It often targets civilians and critical infrastructure to disrupt safety and advance specific agendas.

There’s no justification for shooting someone ten times in the back.

The debate about what Alex Pretti did or didn’t do is irrelevant.

The agents committed murder.

It wasn’t a “bad shoot”. It was a killing

This scam has been going on for decades. These uber-wealthy companies hire celebrities to make these plans look legit, but they are expensive, and the benefits are minimal

"These private insurer-run plans are more expensive AND lead to worse outcomes for patients," said Rep. Pramila Jayapal. "It’s time to rein in Medicare DisAdvantage and protect traditional Medicare."

Watching Republicans increasingly get confused about having to be against guns all the sudden is honestly a little hilarious. The situation isn't funny, but the literal confusion about this one being just for show too is honestly pretty funny.

Yes, liberals have guns too. You don't hear much about it because we treat our guns the same way Republicans treat abortions. We have them, but we just don't talk about them.

A retired Minneapolis couple who had guns pointed at them by ICE in a church parking lot.

"They were obviously not trained at all. I've known many police officers in my life. These people were right off the streets."

"They had the professional demeanor of criminals."

ICE is not broken. It's agents murdering people, taking trophies of victims, using illegal tactics, breaking laws, spreading terror, and leaving death cards are not isolated events, outliers, or accidents. ICE is operating exactly as intended.

The City of Philadelphia has introduced legislation to limited ICE in the city. The Federal Agents can not be masked, must have ID visible, must have arrested warrants signed by federal judges. They can't attack people. If they can't do this, they will be arrested.

Some of the most memorable and humanizing Buddha stories are hidden among the boring rules in the Khandhaka. Buddha getting frustrated at the quarrelling monks at Kosambi and leaving town, surviving assassination attempts by Devadatta, caring for the monk with dysentery.

If your political party is making the argument that a guy with a gun is not allowed to defend a woman from a mob of masked men or else he's a "terrorist", I regret to inform you that you're the Baddies.

Something to keep in mind about Minnesotans protesting unarmed with guns being pointed at them is that they more or less ALL have access to a gun, but are choosing not to bring one.

Bravery isn't holding a gun. Bravery is standing up to other people holding a gun.
