Secretary Noem has forfeited her right to lead. I’m calling on her to resign.
Gregory Bovino must also be fired.
No one, not an ICE agent, not a federal officer, not a president, is above the law.

All 10 shots were fired AFTER they removed the gun from Pretti’s waist. Every single shot was fired after he was disarmed.

AOC: "An ICE officer had violently pushed a woman to the ground and he had come over to help get her up and that is what precipitated this incident that very quickly led to an execution in the streets. What we are seeing here is a momentous pivotal moment for the United States."

Minnesota believes in law and order. We believe in peace. And we believe that Trump needs to pull his 3,000 untrained agents out of Minnesota before they kill another American in the street.

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.

Megan McArdle is the perfect op-ed voice for Jeff Bezos' WaPo. As the rise of fascism in the US becomes more and more evident, her response is not to acknowledge that critics were right, but to get ever angrier at those who correctly saw everything she missed or dismissed.

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.

I'm not sure Democrats in D.C. are aware that their base's rage against ICE has reached a level of blinding white-hot intensity.
They're worried about "looking weak" for voting "against law enforcement" when they should be worried a mob of housewives is going to come beat them to death if they do.

Another question I came here with was: how effective are the whistles and honking? Does it stop abductions? And the answer is, surprisingly to my cynical self, yes, and often. I have talked to so many people who have successfully interrupted kidnappings.

Donald Trump will not be remembered as the president who ended 8 wars,
because he didn't.
He will be remembered as the most moronic 'world leader' in all of history.
That's what people will remember.

I was just on a national call of more than 2500 faith leaders from many traditions, united in our support for the people of #Minneapolis and against #ICE unlawful activities there and around the country. They ask us to NOT SPEND ANY MONEY today, to call our Senators to stop funding ICE, and to pray

Such a joy to wash my hair not at midnight.
Just sharing this so you don’t take anything for granted.
