Two suburban Chicago boys, doing the Lord's work.
These young brothers sacrifice normal teenage life to be full-time ICE watchers in Minneapolis — and say they won’t regret it | CNN
The teenagers’ names are Sam and Ben, but to the federal immigration agents they interact with daily, the two boys wielding cell phones and taking down plate numbers are a duo known as “the brothers.”

WTF.
This is just insane. It’s only a matter of time before DHS kills another innocent person here.

Marimar Martinez is a hero.
She was shot 5 times by ICE.
The agent told her to “do something b*tch” before opening fire.
He later bragged “5 shots, 7 holes”.
DHS tried to smear her reputation but video footage vindicated her.
Next week she will testify in Washington about ICE’s brutality.

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.
“When they say, ‘Why would you be out here?’ How the fuck could I not be out here?” he says. “My nation is under attack."

ICE murdered Renée Good in broad daylight. Less than 3 weeks later, they killed Alex Pretti, shooting him 10 times. Every day, we watch as people are ripped from their cars, their homes, their lives.
We can't allow ourselves to look away from this cruelty. Abolish ICE.

Alex Pretti "used to tell people off when they made sexist comments to female physicians. He bought me coffee when I had a really bad day as an intern...I laughed alongside him daily. He made a point to teach medical residents without judgement, but with a smile on his face and a joke."
