PLEASE STOP SHOPPING AT TARGET. THEY ARE LITERALLY SUPPORTING FASCISM.
Target is HQ’d in MN & lost 35% of its value after it capitulated to Trump & gutted DEI—a $16B loss.
Now, as ICE murders Good & Pretti, as ICE arrests 2 Target employees (who were citizens)—Target does NOTHING to stop ICE.
Let’s continue our Target boycott & gut the remaining 65% value. Who’s in?

Target in Minneapolis has pulled Hispanic employees off of pick-up order duty after ICE arrested two US citizen Hispanic employees while on the job.
“I’m literally a U.S. citizen!” one shouted as they escorted him into a van.

Outside the first of two Targets we occupied today, because Target is complicit with ICE.

Late last week, I talked with @gluesenkampperez.house.gov for my newsletter.
We covered a variety of topics, and her approach to politics.
The DHS vote and Alex Pretti killing hadn’t happened yet. But I’ve linked to her public comments since.
Out today. Give it all a look.

Alex Pretti, who was fatally shot by Border Patrol agents on Saturday, was a registered nurse who worked in the ICU at the Veterans Affairs hospital in Minneapolis. “He wanted to be helpful, to help humanity and have a career that was a force of good in the world,” a colleague said. trib.al/0Yb3jXF

If you make ICE judge, jury and executioner, what's to stop the FBI or city or state cops from doing the same. And then what's to stop everyday citizens from doing the same. You have anarchy if you don't hold ICE and the rest of the authorities to a higher standard.

ICE killing #AlexPretti should remind you of police killing #PhilandoCastille. Both men had concealed weapon permits, did not draw their guns, & were killed in Minn. These homicides are the price of unaccountable policing. These deaths are variations on the same fatal theme.
