Matt‘s running for Angie Craig‘s seat, if you’re unfamiliar. This is yet another insight into how the drawdown isn’t changing the fundamental unconstitutional dynamics of ICE.
Crazy ICE experiences yesterday! Four ICE vehicles boxed me in outside my own house after following me home and trying to have me arrested. Watch the video for details!

Yeah, we've tried this strategy for decades now and it still led us to this because Fascism Lite is still fascism. Newsom is an opportunist transphobe with a sketch af past, links to a LOT of these same people, and a gross history of personal & political dehumanization of marginalized groups.
Tbh, fuck this position. A transphobe in dems clothes is still a transphobe.

None of us are free until all of us are free.
Doesn't matter who rolls out as the Dem Presidential candidate... They'll be the one to vote for.

Unless you're a white, male, billionaire...

Sit home. Or split your vote for some dolt like Jill Stein. Either way you'll be making things worse for 99.999% of Americans.

Not debating it either...

ICE is still heavy in the burbs so when people are trying to tell you that a lot of them have left or there has been a significant drawback on agents - they can shut the fuck up. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

Chotiner: so you want concentration camps, but where you don't have to see them

A: well, I mean, I guess, when you put it that way-

Chotiner: or at the very least, where no public criticism of the camps is allowed

A: the camp is near a school... so-

and the lady in our inbox who caused us to go into a Whistles Out: a Benoit Blanc Mystery spiral for half the day because she had rallied so many people to request whistles to the same town that we thought it was a scam, but no she just convinced like 700 people to mobilize and we love her so much

Six detainees were put on today’s ICE Air flight at MSP.

I’m also hearing it was a very busy couple of days in the suburbs and towns on the south side of the Twin Cities.

Folks in Minnesota, what did it feel like today in your community?
Anecdotally, my friends doing observation and legal work haven't seen a steep drop in ICE activity, but at the airport, the trends are looking pretty promising - over last five days, the average number of ICE detainees getting flown out is 8 per day.

Somebody I know in Texas mentioned this story, just in case you were wondering if it's gotten out nationally.

He was disgusted by it as well
Two female ICE agents popped the hood of their car and knocked on the door of a mechanic born in Mexico. He went out to help.

The reason why billionaires are attracted to Russia isn't difficult. That is a society run by and for oligarchs, without any pretence of being anything else. Putin's regime is the model they want to impose on us.

Republicans can end this anytime they want by agreeing to a national gerrymandering ban. Until then, they are going to be made to understand pain.
Gotta do maximum gerrymanders in every blue state. No choice.
