DHS has surged around the state.
Minnesotans all around have stood up together to support our neighbors.
This is not Minneapolis only, it's Minnesota.

“Skip” Johnson wasn’t even 20 when he left to fight in Vietnam. His journey, from Medal of Honor to a life unraveled, is worth remembering as the Trump administration denigrates Black military service.
“He stood for a generation whose lives would be forever shaped by a war they did not choose.”
“He stood for a generation whose lives would be forever shaped by a war they did not choose.”
Celebrating Black military service is not “DEI shit.” It’s essential to America’s defense.
The Trump administration has sullied the legacy of soldiers our nation relies on.

Right now, Democrats have the power to defund and abolish ICE. We should do it. This is about right and wrong—and the murder we are seeing on the streets is just plain wrong. Anyone who supports funding DHS and ICE is supporting the murder of Americans. We can stop this.

Wow, the White House is so shaken by the turn in the public mood that they thought Chuck Schumer might actually rise up and "seize this moment" to get meaningful concessions.
That's how panicked they are. They thought Chuck Schumer would do something.

“An administration official gave away the game to Punchbowl News, admitting that these “de-escalatory measures” are about placating Senate Democrats so they don’t seize this moment to demand restrictions on ICE as part of any government funding package.”

Donald Trump Is Frightened
Trump wants to appear eager to minimize out-of-control clashes between government militias and protesters. But he doesn’t want to stop the things causing those clashes in the first place.

Thousands of Haitians living in Ohio are here legally. But now, Trump is stripping them of their legal status in the same week that he plans to deploy ICE to Springfield, leaving them with no defense. Here is the Trump Playbook:

Ian Austin, an Army veteran, was arrested for protesting ICE in Minneapolis. But he’s continued protesting. Senior reporter @julialurie.bsky.social spoke to him.

This isn't about "training issues." The murderer who executed Renee Good has been with ICE for 10 years, and according to DHS, the murderer who executed Alex Pretti has been there for 8 years.
These aren't "new recruits," or officers that can be "retrained." ICE can't be reformed. Abolish ICE.
