*watching Trump shut down two dozen extremely important and critical public institutions within six months voice* we can't just suddenly ABOLISH a government agency like ICE. that's ridiculous

This is accurate

“The secret fear of the morally depraved is that virtue is actually common, and that they’re the ones who are alone.”
Last week in Minnesota, I watched ordinary people risk their lives to protect their neighbors. In the process, they not only won a significant—though not final—victory against authoritarianism, they proved virtually every MAGA social theory wrong. (gift link) www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Every senator should be following Rep. Ro Khanna’s lead and head to Minneapolis before they cast their vote on more ICE funding.

It’s a moral test, and anyone who claims to stand for human rights should take notes.

The NYT does a masterful job walking us through the video of the murder of Mr Pretti by ICE agents operating under Trump authority and policies. Frame by frame www.nytimes.com/video/us/100...
Video: New Video Analysis Reveals Flawed and Fatal Decisions in Shooting of Pretti
A frame-by-frame assessment of actions by Alex Pretti and the two officers who fired 10 times shows how lethal force came to be used against a target who didn’t pose a threat.

One simple thing Senate Democrats could demand is: ICE agents cannot under any circumstances be masked.

(No, that is not the only thing. No, that is not enough. Yes, I want ICE abolished. Yes, I know "they won't" is a distinct possibility. I hope that saves some of you some time.)

Yep. When the pandemic started and they began "social distancing of 6 feet when in public,", Mainers were all like "that's kinda close."
Well, this Portlander is giving these guys he says are ICE agents, a piece of his mind as they wander off into the snow-filled night.

Hey, let’s go to Maine in the dead of winter, a time of year that certainly won’t make us more recognizable to a populace that has the ability to spot an out-of-stater from 500 yards away.

Bovino’s retirement needs to be a cage. His command environment yielded Renee Good’s death, Alex Pretti’s death & Julio Sosa-Celis’ shooting. Failure to prosecute Bovino & everyone else materially responsible for these atrocities will be understood by ICE, CBP, etc as a green light for the next ones

oof
I guess Bovino came up a little short.

Maple Grove, MN -

Protesters have a noise demonstration at a nearby hotel they say federal agents are staying (I have not independently verified this). Hennepin County Sheriffs and snowplows that belong to the City of Maple Grove are blocking entrance to pedestrians nearby. Caution tape is up.

It is profoundly sad that a white man's concealed carry guns rights is what is getting certain people to finally understand that the US government does not give a shit about laws or rights or lives. This is not a criticism of the victim. This is a criticism of the US's sympathies & priorities.

There is a lot of darkness right now so please enjoy the wailing and gnashing of teeth from this right wing influencer from the Tucker Carlson network who seems to have gotten the first tip that Bovino was being demoted and removed from Minnesota

When Trump learned that Homan was videoed taking $50,000 in a bag, that probably put him at the head of the line for "border czar." Trump needed a dirty man, one who would do anything demanded of him, like a mafia hitman. The administration never answered the question about where the money is now.

Not only will Border Czar Homan be taking over operations in Minneapolis reporting directly to Trump, Greg Bovino & some of his agents will exit.

Is this rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic?
