New in PN: 'Abolish ICE' is imperative
"There's no amount of training that can instill basic humanity in thugs who willingly mistreat women, children, and old men. ICE agents reportedly dined at a Mexican restaurant in MN before arresting employees. How will 'training' fix that level of depravity?"

Video shows ICE leaving behind an infant and broken glass after arresting a man with no criminal history.
“There was a car seat in the back... There were broken glass shards all over it... There was just this tiny peanut of a baby. He was crying.”

The only thing this changes is that it adds PREMEDITATION to the #murder charge #pretti #ice #gestapo #maga #trump #gop
News Movement posted this video of Alex Pretti on Jan 13, showing him spitting at ICE agents and kicking their taillight.
Now conservatives are suggesting this changes things.
That would mean they are suggesting he deserved to be target of an extrajudicial execution.
The video changes nothing.

Periodic reminder that ICE still isn’t going after “hardened criminals”
We would all support that.
What do we gain from yanking this father away from his wife and child? What do we gain from deporting people who have been here for 20 years and never been in legal trouble?

Here's what ICE is up to in Northeast Minneapolis today. Absolutely heartbreaking.

The widespread erasure of Jews from the Holocaust is an exploding trend. Stop playing into it. Once that succeeds, we are truly on a rapidly decaying downward spiral.

To anyone pretending that "Liberals are hypocrites because #ICE was active under Biden & Obama" - you can just shove that.
