The @garbageday.email has talked a lot about how this is a content-driven administration. Policy by posting. Polling by likes.

So to see the main content creator of ICE/CBP not only get fired but get his posting privileges revoked (lol) is proof that they are losing on the policy and the humanity.
This is an incredibly dark read from @garbageday.email…the on the ground reporting is appreciated and there is so much to be concerned about with ICE’s actions in Minneapolis & what they prefigure nationally.
We're all just content for ICE

Something important to understand about ICE thugs in the Twin Cities is that they're harassing innocent kids and parents at bus stops and schools every single day. Even after the Pretti shooting. It's terrorism.

All of this is fucking senseless. Minnesota did not have an immigration problem. Trump sent his Nazi thugs here because he's racist against Somali people and to own libs like Tim Walz. Now two Minnesotans are dead and Minneapolis is on the verge of going up in flames. None. Of. This. Was. Necessary.

The Star Tribune reports that federal agents "attempted to order local police from the scene" where a man was shot and killed by feds this morning, but Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara refused and "instructed his officers to preserve the scene."
Live: Man shot and killed by federal agents in south Minneapolis this morning, police chief says
A video appears to shows federal agents wrestling a man to the ground then shooting him.

🚨"We wonder why people in the 1930s were quiet, we need to show we weren't quiet. History is gonna look back at all the people that didn't show up—their grandkids are gonna ask what were they doing! It's like -10 degrees and we're here!" -Minneapolis ICE protester. LIVE NOW⬇️
