ICE has kidnapped so many people from their cars that the city had to put out this statement. Let that sink in.
Vehicles that are abandoned due to an ICE detention and towed to the City's impound lot will be released to their owners or a representative at no cost.

Two days ago it was Elissa Slotkin. Last week it was Jerome Powell. Before that, Mark Kelly. Weaponizing the justice system against your opponents is an authoritarian tactic.

The only person not being investigated for the shooting of Renee Good is the federal agent who shot her.
Breaking news: The Justice Department has issued subpoenas for Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey as part of an investigation alleging that they are impeding federal law enforcement officers’ abilities to do their jobs in the state.

DOJ is out of control. The crime of impeding federal agents requires physical force. Speaking out against the way ICE is being deployed is not a crime.

Renee Good had a pulse when EMS arrived. I’m not sure it would have made a difference if ICE had let that civilian physician render aid before EMS arrived, but now we will never know. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...

Holy shit.

Renee Good was alive when the bystander physician asked to check her pulse. She was alive when ICE refused to let him help. She was alive when they told him “I don’t care.”

ICE IN LOS ANGELES

Wednesday, ICE rolled up in an unmarked truck and turned LA into a rooftop chase scene.

Construction workers, jumping buildings, agents climbing ladders, all to terrorize people trying to do a day’s work.

No arrests. Just fear. Just risk. Just trauma.

Nothing says pathetic fragile crook quite like orange felon accepting someone else’s Nobel Peace Prize and nothing says disgraceful fraud quite like Machado gifting her Nobel Peace Prize to a murderous tyrant like him for power. I hope the Nobel Committee strips it from her.

This is incredible: 81% of working class and 83% of young voters have seen video of Renee Good's killing, per new data I've obtained. Majority of working class disapproves of ICE enforcement. ICE brutality is breaking through big time.

The Twin Cities area is under the occupation of state sanctioned domestic terrorists. “Law enforcement” is just a cover for Trump’s personal vendetta against my state, my governor, and every person of any shade of color who lives here.
Donald Trump & his regime claim there is an insurrection in Minnesota. And they’re right.

When 3,000 neo-Nazis in rental cars kitted out like they’re taking Fallujah descend on a city to kidnap, beat, and murder the residents—what else do you call it?

ICE isn't targeting criminals or even people here illegally. They are just making up the law - every day. Here's what's going on.

The regime shot Renee Nicole Good and then labeled her a domestic terrorist.

But they didn’t do it because they’re strong — they did it because they’re weak and scared.
