Finally got around to a bit of research I'd been meaning to explore, and: There is no documented instance of an ICE officer being identified and assaulted while off duty because he wasn't masked. www.pbump.net/o/ices-excus...
ICE’s excuse for wearing masks has never actually manifested
There have been incidents of harassment and threats. But there are no apparent incidents in which identified ICE officers have been assaulted off-duty.

SHAHEEN: It's been reported that the oil sold for $500 million and $300 million went to Venezuelan government. What happened to the other $200 million?

RUBIO: It's still sitting in the account is my understanding

SHAHEEN: The account in Qatar?

RUBIO: Yes

Bovino was forced out of Minnesota because the American people stood firm. Tens of thousands of people took to the streets in below-freezing temps to peacefully defend their neighbors & freedoms.

We’ll keep fighting. No more deaths at the hands of rogue DHS agents.

The Border Patrol chief has been ousted from his role as “commander at large,” and will return to El Centro.

Trump backing down to public pressure is a good thing. But let's be clear. Noem, Miller, Bovino, etc. all followed his lead. He called protesters terrorists. He dehumanized Somali immigrants. He lied about Good and Pretti. He owns all of it.

He'll also probably change his mind tomorrow.
ABC: Noem said Pretti committed an act of domestic terrorism. Stephen Miller labeled him a domestic terrorist. Does the president agree?

LEAVITT: I have not heard the president characterize Mr Pretti in that way

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum.

Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum.

Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum.

ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.

Walz, Newsom, and especially Pritzker have been consistent in emphasizing that *history doesn't end with Trump.* (Unless, in ways we don't want to think about, it does.)

There will eventually be a reckoning. Pritzker has said that he will make accountability his cause.

ICE and CBP are today's KKK
Walz: Minnesotans are witnessing, and we're creating a log of evidence for the future prosecution of ice agents and officials responsible for this.

Really hard to look at this and all the other examples of bravery and kindness from ordinary people in this moment not think also of the tremendous cowardice exhibited over the past year by some of the richest, most well-protected people in business, media and politics
Let us all have the courage displayed by the residents of Minneapolis.

Trump/Miller/Hegseth in always push for maximum aggression without mercy.That is ICE’s mission. Aggression permeates this govt. Hold the agents accountable. But the directive comes from the top. #ImpeachAndRemove

The federal government is executing American citizens in the middle of the street for exercising their constitutional right to freedom of speech.

This is tyranny. No free people can accept this kind of government. We need to bring an end to the Trump regime.

THE MAN THEY TOOK WRAPPED IN A BLANKET IS A U.S. CITIZEN.

This is the Kavanaugh Stop of all Kavanaugh Stops.
Sunday, at least 7 ICE agents stormed a house and took an elderly man out into the freezing cold, wearing only his underwear and a blanket.

He was a member of the Hmong community, which came to the area from Laos in the 1970s after siding with the US in the Vietnam War.

This is what happened in our neighborhood yesterday. ICE snatched a human being off of our streets, roughed them up badly, and then pepper sprayed legal observers as they documented it all. This is a daily occurrence happening all throughout Minnesota right now.

Elections do matter.
This is how it’s done! @abigailspanberger.com’s first act as Governor of Virginia is to repeal Glenn Youngkin’s executive order that mandated state and local law enforcement cooperate with ICE.
More of this please! #LetFreedomRing

Stop saying Trump is threatening tariffs on European countries. He’s threatening tariffs on European *products* – but American companies and people will pay the Trump tax.

Let’s call this what it is: a disgusting abuse of power and a farce.

As his agents terrorize Minnesotans, as prices rise, as he fails to deliver for Americans, he is also weaponizing the DOJ against his perceived enemies.

This is not a banana republic and justice will prevail.

you know this guy is a FOR REAL photographer because he's telling the story of his brutal, unconditional arrest by federal goons and can't help but slip in a gear review
Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.
