A Black man named Keith Porter was shot and killed by an ICE officer on New Year’s Eve.
Marimar Martinez was shot five times by an ICE officer in Chicago who went on to brag about leaving seven holes in her body.
This is not new but it is expanding.

Your reminder that what happened to Renee Nicole Good is something that happens regularly in America. This is not new, but it is an expanded version of militarized people targeting Black people in particular.
From ICE detention to murder with impunity, we've been doing it. Now it's broadened.

there is no reason for ICE to exist. immigrants aren’t doing anything wrong by trying to live and work and provide for their loved ones. I don’t care how people got here. if they want to be here that’s good. leave them alone.

I am impeaching Secretary Kristi Noem, who is an incompetent leader and a disgrace to our democracy.
She wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area and has brought her reign of terror to Minneapolis. One of her rogue ICE agents shot and killed an innocent woman today. It must come to an end.

Renee Nicole Good, 37, was murdered four fifths of a mile from where George Perry Floyd, Jr., 46, was murdered in May of 2020.
I want the media to understand just how close what happened today is to where George Floyd was murdered. 0.8 miles.

i think it is ok to reiterate that the victim as a us citizen. yes, noncitizens are equally entitled to human rights. but also, it's important to illustrate how ice isn't about immigration at all

I was the first speaker tonight, and almost immediately, I could hear people in the crowd weeping. Chicago is feeling this loss deeply, as if Renee were one of our own. I think there’s a deep kinship among people doing ICE Watch/Rapid Response, from neighborhood to neighborhood and city to city.

In our research there were no articles about anything positive about online activism. Zero. Zero? Does that makes sense? Nobody had anything positive to say about it?
That's propaganda, babes.
We've seen it work, help and change things. Why do none of them have anything positive to say?

Masked ICE agents, it seems, are now killing American citizens on American streets.
Any Democrat who doesn’t support abolishing ICE should be instantly primaried and run out of the party.
This is non negotiable. You cannot support the continued existence of this fascist murderous secret police.

How can anyone stay calm when an occupying force is kidnapping and murdering people in broad daylight?
"Stay calm." FFS.
People should be rioting in the streets, ideally wearing body armor.

Remember a few weeks ago when people all over the country were praising MPD Chief for saying mean things about ICE?
Yeah that same man is letting ICE mace & shoot people who are protesting & showing up as legal observers.
The perimeter is there to protect ICE, not the people of Minneapolis.
