I’d rather have open borders than this. If you’re here, you’re here. Pay your taxes, don’t hurt anyone, and welcome to the neighborhood.
BTW when I say abolish ICE, I mean abolish it entirely and replace it with exactly nothing. Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free. That's it.

"Access to state voter rolls" gives away the game. Everything they are doing is about trying to pursue the same insane election conspiracy theories that led to the massive SSA data breach. This is about punishing the electorate in a state Trump lost but wants to believe he won.
Fox News: "I've gotten my hands that AG Bondi said she sent to Gov. Tim Walz. It is strongly worded. The AG calls for the governor to support the men and women of ICE, to repeal the state's sanctuary policies, and to allow the DOJ to access state voter rolls."

Federal agents are acting as though any crime they commit will be ignored by federal prosecutors today, and pardoned before Trump leaves office. The proper political response to this is to impeach and remove the president from office before he can do that.

Reminder: DHS legislation that funds ICE at current levels without policy restrictions is in the Senate and needs 60 votes to pass. Deadline is next Friday.

Memory is a fragile thing in this moment, so it is important to keep in mind that Hakeem Jeffries refused to whip his caucus against ICE funding earlier this week.

Per his colleagues: The victim’s name was apparently Alex Pretti and he was an ICU nurse caring for severely injured veterans at the VA Hospital. He was acting as an observer, filming the raid. Any suggestion that he was there with violence on his mind is horrific gaslighting.

Stephen Miller is unelected, unconfirmed, getting people killed, and shredding the social fabric of this nation. Members of Congress should be demanding his exit from the Executive Branch.
Of course the repulsive Stephen Miller rushed to defend the murderers. And of course our spineless, pathetic vice president rushed to retweet Miller's lie.

The attorney general is threatening a state that the federal government will continuing murdering its citizens in the streets unless they provide access to state voter rolls, a lawless demand which is the subject of ongoing litigation.

If the cops can kill you for legally carrying a gun, it is not legal to carry the gun.
Minneapolis police chief Brian O'Hara says that the victim was a 37-year-old white man and US citizen with no criminal record and that he was a legally permitted gun owner.

We have been told for nearly 30 years that America needed to tolerate mass shootings because the broad availability of guns would help us defend ourselves from an overreaching federal government. That day has come. The people who said this are supporting the federal agents. Many have joined them.
