What's happening in Minnesota is one reason the Reconstruction Amendments banned insurrectionists from holding office. Unfortunately, the originalists on the Supreme Court interpreted the plain language of the amendment to mean its opposite.

Now Noem says:

“This individual went and impeded their law enforcement operations...had a weapon on him, and multiple dozens of rounds of ammunition, wishing to inflict harm on these officers.”

So “had a weapon on him”, not brandishing.

Last time i checked they worked hard to make that a right.

We have video of Renee Good and Alex Pretti being executed by ICE

We don’t have video of the torture in the ICE camps

We know Geraldo Campos was choked to death

We know Randall Gamboa was put in a persistent vegetative state and deported

We know 2025 was the deadliest year on record

Abolish ICE

There is a template for this. You can call it a conference, a congress, a convention, an assembly, but they all amount to the same thing. It needs to be convened promptly, and Illinois would be a good choice for hosting it.
I am asking my fellow Republican and Democratic Governors across the nation to have a unified response.

We must all stand against the lawlessness being inflicted in our states.

an administration staffed to the top with degenerate liars
Noem lies shamelessly: "An individual approached order Patrol officers with a 9mm semi-automatic gun. The officers attempted to disarm this individual, but the armed suspect reacted violently. This looks like a situation where an individual arrived to inflict maximum damage and kill law enforcement"

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.

Wild that @npr.org continues to parrot back the trump admin’s quite obvious lies.

Yes yes
This is important. And partly why the entire rightwing infrastructure from GOP to Heritage to Manhattan to ALEC were so terrified of 2020. Millions of the folks marching for racial justice and demanding a racial reckoning were *white*
Showing cross-racial solidarity is a potential death sentence. There are few things white supremacists hate more.

Video out of Minneapolis this morning appears to show another ICE murder. A large group of ICE agents is seen wrestling with a man before opening fire multiple times on him. Some shots even come after the individual is clearly no longer moving.

This is domestic terrorism. Abolish and prosecute ICE

One thing that irks me: people keep calling the folks on the streets in Minneapolis protestors. They are not generally there to protest, they are there to observe and document. This is the product of organizing and mutual aid. It is telling that these acts of citizenship are seen as protest!

The newest video shows very clearly that they attacked him for coming to an aid of a woman that the agents pushed, and then executed him while he was immobilized. Everything the government has said, like with Good, has been a complete lie.

I wish Democrats would start just speaking the truth:

“ICE is killing American citizens in public for exercising their freedom of speech because Donald Trump wants to be a king.

This isn’t about immigration—Trump wants to make it illegal to oppose him, and to stay in power until he dies.”

They are telling us in unequivocal terms that if you show solidarity with immigrants who are in the literal crosshairs of Trump/MAGA, you're risking a death sentence.

What's making me really livid right now is thinking back to the years of commentary lecturing us that the rise of MAGA was rooted in a sense of righteous victimization by overbearing liberal elites, and sneering at those who insisted that it was fundamentally about domination and sadism all along.
