The real question is, why is Trump tanking the US so hard? Does he think he'll get better draft picks for Confederacy II?

I miss the days when I could take the dog for a walk and have my headphones in. Keeping an ear out for whistles and eyes up for masked men driving recklessly is not as fun as listening to music.

If you are out observing or rapid responding to ICE today, let them know that they’ve lost. Remind them that they’ve failed and they should go home and call a lawyer.

really casually saying "y'all better lawyer up bc your bosses are preparing to throw you under the bus" is an elite taunt, imo

This is an absolute threat. “You’re not going to stop ICE. You’re not going to stop Border Patrol.”

Fascism wants you to believe that you are alone. That you are isolated. That the feelings you have are yours and nobody else has them because everybody is too afraid to speak.
But love is stronger than fascism. Community is stronger than fascism.

“Grown ass man in Texas went to place where high schoolers were protesting the American Gestapo, he went with the intention of beating up the teenagers, mostly girls, and got his ass kicked” feels like the truest expression of the American right and why they want state murder agents killing everyone

New idea: law enforcement shouldn't be carried out by convicted felons.
I testified Friday before Gov. Pritzker's commission studying abuses of ICE and CBP and tried to explain how the agencies went so far off track. It's actually way worse than I ever realized. Please read and share my testimony as Congress considers reform: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/accountabi...
Accountability for ICE and CBP
However bad you think the corruption and misconduct at ICE and CBP is — the reality is far far worse.

I like it when I can do something to help people displaced by ICE and then after I do that thing I get to eat a pizza.

Not a judgment and IDK how you overcome it but...it's striking that every time a fresh national news story drops about ICE in the Twin Cities (ProPublica today), a lot of people respond with "Wow, I didn't realize it was that bad" and everyone in MN goes "Yes and it's a hundred times worse"

It does worry me that a kid's odds of getting out of a tortuous detention center are mostly dependent on whether a random bystander got a perfect picture of them looking sad

DFL legislators need to insist on a compensation fund of tens of millions of dollars to offset economic harms of the ICE siege. It infuriates me that Mercado Central has to hold a $500,000 bake sale to hold onto their building. Tens of fucking millions.

This morning, federal agents staged at the Powderhorn Park Recreation Center lot and began to throw chemical irritants at observers. They also kidnapped an observer. Our parks are meant for our children, youth, and neighbors. They should never be militarized zones meant to separate families. 1/

I'm in a Minnesota Polite arms race against my neighbor. They shoveled a few feet of my sidewalk. So next time I shoveled a few feet of their sidewalk. So this time they've shoveled a full six feet past the property line. At this rate I'll be dropping off hot dish weekly.

One of the hardest things to explain to people who aren’t here is the very real feeling that we are in a war against the federal government. Not only are we occupied by unaccountable armed, masked paramilitaries, but we are constantly aware our neighbors might be abducted in the blink of an eye.
