The winds of public opinion are at our back. We will press this Administration until we see impartial investigations, the departure of federal forces, and an end to this campaign of retribution.

ICE is upset that ICE isn't welcome in restaurants after ICE ordered food at a restaurant, ate it, then arrested restaurant employees, and ICE believes this is someone else's fault, do I have that right?

Sean Hannity lied and said no Republican ever talked about this.
I really wish that liars like Hannity would be held to some sort of account for lying to Americans.

The GOP hypocrisy and lies are astounding. But it's what we've come to know and expect from them. Dems, do not get distracted or bamboozled by the Republican fake outrage or tortured arguments that try to justify murder and fascism.

Giving them more training won't make them more peaceful.
It'll just make their brutalization more polished and effective.

The officer who shot Alex worked for DHS for 8 years. The officer who shot Renee worked for DHS for over 10 years. Both are considered “highly trained.”
The problem isn’t "training." DHS was built to violate our rights and has been empowered to act with impunity. We must MELT ICE and dismantle DHS.

In Minneapolis we are, many of us, very skeptical of the deployment of the National Guard as was done in summer 2020 and again in August 2021. So, in addition to pushback on their very presence in this context, many of us would also say this about these efforts today: "That's different."
Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.
