I am convinced half my country believes this chaos is a fun reality show. He will convince them they are winning until it’s their turn to lose.

Today's actions covered many bases:
1) Economic pressure through striking
2) A HUGE rally downtown
3) Civil disobedience at the airport
4) A direct confrontation at Whipple
5) Maintaining patrols/rapid response
All of this despite being the coldest day in SIX years - we've got this, Minnesota.

The idea that Trump's electoral victory means he wasn't guilty of the crimes he was indicted for is the real-life analogue of "I got more likes on Twitter so I'm right"
Deadly Keystone Cops
DHS and ICE are incompetent—but that doesn’t make them any less dangerous.

In October, ICE grabbed Maher Tarabishi.
He was a 24/7 caregiver for his disabled son Wael.
At the time of Maher’s detention, disability advocates warned that taking away Wael’s caregiver put his life at risk.
Wael died on Friday at age 30.
ICE caused his death.
They didn’t get to say goodbye.
