We are searching for the woman in a red jacket who captured the ICE situation on video. We heard she was taken by federal agents. If anyone has updates, let us know.

Trump is coming after all of us. All of us who oppose his tyranny and brutality. All of us who defy his dictatorship. All of us who seek accountability and challenge his murderous goons.
All across America we must rise up against this oppression, as peacefully but as definitively as we can.

I'm heartbroken and furious at the news of yet another fatal shooting in MN. I voted to block additional ICE funding, I’m demanding a complete and transparent investigation, and I'm fighting to unmask ICE agents. There must be accountability.

Alex Pretti, Renee Good, and Keith Porter Jr. were murdered. Marimar Martinez was shot. Mahmoud Khalil was arrested and jailed.

Even as ICE receives $170B in new funding, it has stopped paying for medical care for detainees — including life-saving medications, dialysis, and chemotherapy treatments.
Remember: Over 70% of detainees have no criminal convictions.
Cruelty on steroids.

I suspect ICE came down on Minneapolis because they thought it would be easy to provoke rioting there & declare martial law.
That has not proved to be the case.
ICE is further escalating now as a last ditch effort to incite civil unrest.
Hang on, Minneapolis.
It’s always darkest before the dawn.

John Addison, a senior trader at Vitol who helped broker the deal, gave $6M to Trump's 2024 campaign.

Listen to the crowd's response at the end. It's easy: #abolishICE
Mamdani: "I am in support of abolishing ICE. What we see is an entity that has no interest in fulfilling its stated reason to exist. We're seeing a government agency that is supposed to be enforcing some kind of immigration law, but instead what it's doing is terrorizing people."
