We know that 4more children from Liam's school are still in ICE custody in TX. But we still do not know how many children from MN in total have been detained by ICE.

Speaking of “the U.S. is run by pedophile billionaires who like the idea of increasing global poverty and thus the supply of totally desperate children and adults to traffic as their degraded servants.”

Our thread of ICE and Border Patrol sex offenders is up to 53 agents, with many more to go.
Patrick Andrew Hamburg, 46, a Customs and Border Protection officer from International Falls, MN, was sentenced on Aug 16, 2011 to 7 and a half years in prison for sexually assaulting a preteen girl over a period of several years. Hamburg moved to Montana after his release from prison.

Jack Smith has Jeffrey Clark/Scott Perry texts admitting there was NO foreign election interference in 2020 per a briefing from DNI Ratcliffe January 2nd, 2021 per Volume I of his final report. DNI Gabbard is going to try to create foreign interference where DNI Ratcliffe failed. @raskin.house.gov

Georgia Fort, an independent journalist in Minnesota, was also among those arrested.

In her video, she says that she was told by the agents who came to her door that this came out of a grand jury.
Minnesota based Independent Journalist GEORGIA FORT has been arrested for filming a protest of the church pastor that works as an ICE manager. SPREAD THE WORD! Georgia has been doing outstanding reporting from ground zero!

interested to learn what “at my direction” means because it sounds like “without a warrant”

It sure as shit sounds like that to me! She's not a judge! She has to get an arrest warrant to have this woman hauled outr of her house! Pam Bondo doesn't get to just change the Constitution at her own whim, no matter what she thinks!

Some of the companies making this possible:

-Clearview AI
-Palantir
-Paragon (Israeli tech company)
-Paralink (Nebraska-based software company)
A Minnesota woman observing ICE agents in her car was cornered on one-way streets. An agent approached, called her by name—citing facial recognition. Days later, her Global Entry and TSA privileges were revoked, with no explanation.

Guess we missed the 2nd Amendment exception for opponents of MAGA policies.
Trump on Jan 27: "You can't have guns. You can't walk around with guns."

Patel on Jan 25: "You cannot bring a firearm loaded with multiple magazines to any sort of protest that you want. It's that simple. You don't have the right to break the law and incite violence."

Here are the MAGA faithful.

Using planes to disappear people and ensure judges cannot free them from ICE's gulag.
Exactly. ICE’s domestic shuffle flights have more than doubled since Trump took office again, outpacing the overall increase in ICE flights. Using planes to deny due process.

Here is an example of a Dutch call-up paper for Jews to report to labor camps.

The Frank family ignored their call-up, meaning they were officially in Amsterdam illegally from this point on.

The Trump administration is doing Holocaust revisionism to avoid the possibility of empathy for migrants.

One armed goon loses his shit at an observer who's backing up, and then several more armed goons tackle the observer to the ground, and then even more armed goons form a protective shield around the armed goons handcuffing the observer for hurting an armed goon's feelings.

This can't be "reformed"

It’s important to remember that we are not powerless.

We cannot give into nihilism and fear. We must continue to find small ways to protect ourselves and our communities, and when we can, fight back.
How Hackers Are Fighting Back Against ICE
A few enterprising hackers have started projects to do counter surveillance against ICE, and hopefully protect their communities through clever use of technology.

Why is no one talking or reporting about the ICE agents shoving women ( violently ) to the ground even before the shooting happened ?? Is it Ok for Law Enforcement just to shove people to the ground ? ICE is clearly escalating encounters with Protestors . Why isn’t this being reported on the news ?

Conservatives always want to silence those who oppose them. Sometimes it is with bytes. Sometimes it is with bullets.
UPDATE: TIKTOK IS COOKED. Our videos went from tens of thousands to 0.

ICE executed Alex Pretti for attempting to help someone they attacked and exercising his First Amendment right to record government officials. #ICEMustBeDestroyed
Wow! This read-along of the NYT moment-by-moment leading to the murder of Alex Pretti should shake everyone awake. He was a Good Samaritan.

Agents fired at least ten shots in roughly five seconds. DHS and Pam Bondi claim Pretti approached them armed and intent on a “massacre.”

It has been the case since before a cop killed Philando Castile in 2016 and wasn't convicted. Need only review the history of the Black Panther Party.
The new conservative position on gun control is apparently that lawfully carrying a licensed handgun means you deserve to be executed in the street by masked federal agents

Trigger warning folks. Stay safe out there. #IceMustBeDestroyed
Alex Pretti 37 was a nurse for the VA.
He was NOT ARMED nor did he pose a threat when he was MURDERED by DHS police. #AlexPretti #DHS #Minneapolis #ICE #Murder #Trump #Noem #Fascism #Gestapo

This was murder. Pretti did not initiate the confrontation. He didn’t strike them. He didn’t brandish his gun. They tackled him, beat him, disarmed him, and shot him.
Holy crap.

This is the most damning video yet.

It shows Border Patrol agents clearly taking Alex's firearm, running it away, and THEN executed him in cold blood by emptying a clip into his face.

Murder.

One thing that irks me: people keep calling the folks on the streets in Minneapolis protestors. They are not generally there to protest, they are there to observe and document. This is the product of organizing and mutual aid. It is telling that these acts of citizenship are seen as protest!

Multiple officials of the US federal government are spending their day rather blatantly obstructing Minnesota law enforcement and covering up a murder.

Thinking further, if Google can take your money to seem to get you the best deal while also making sure they get more from offering you a higher price, then they will. Gathering tons of data on your buying habits makes that situation easier for them.
Even if they "work for you", it may be more profitable for Google to make sure you pay more.
New episode of Organized Money is out: we talked to Lindsay Owens about how Google is working to create bots that do your shopping for you, personally, with your very own personalized prices. Scary stuff!
