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.

ICYMI: I looked through a published archive of Boston newspapers from the 1760s, when British troops were stationed in the city.
The accounts read remarkably similar to what's happening in Minneapolis.

Two cities under siege
Remarkably similar scenes from Boston and Minneapolis, 260 years apart, show a federal government betraying its founding principles.

the injunction isn't permissible, the 8th Circuit says, because ordering ICE not to harm people for merely observing them, arrest them without PC, or fire chemical munitions at them, is the equivalent of telling them to "obey the law"
![Second, in addition to being too broad, the injunction is too vague. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 65(d)(1)(B)–(C) (explaining that an injunction must “state its terms specifically” and “describe in reasonable detail . . . the act or acts restrained or required”). Directions not to “[r]etaliat[e] against persons who are engaging in peaceful and unobstructive protest activity” or “[s]top[] or detain[] drivers . . . where there is no reasonable articulable suspicion” are simply commands to “obey thelaw,” which are “not specific enough.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:o4pdps2jkn7uhrdgadni7djk/bafkreiekuyv4fjqmba2btlgvr3rb7gkohsvcykdzfrqgnapydudryit4wq@jpeg)

Four years ago, I recorded short material that I pulled from the public domain. I did my best to release one a week, as an experiment that lead to It's Storytime.
This is Umberto Eco’s essential 1995 essay, Ur Fascism. It was shockingly relevant in in 2020, and it remains so today.

Some people who aren’t on TikTok won’t care about this. That’s a mistake. 170 million Americans use TikTok. It was the primary way young voters were reached. It activated ppl and allowed us to share what’s happening on our streets as it’s happening.

The ones ones on this pack are all vetted. I've confirmed their vetting process is legit. But, unlike AltNPS, they are individual accounts, meaning they have their own posting voice - not rammed through marketing filter. They won't all post "nicely", basically, but their information is solid.

2/3 of homicide deaths in Minneapolis this year are ICE murders. about 8% of male homicide deaths nationally are at the hands of police. you cannot separate acceptance of state violence at the hands of LEOs from MAGA’s justification of state violence now.
