Proud Minnesotan here to keep tabs on the destruction of our democracy and resist MAGA fascism. Caretaker to spouse w/Parkinson's. Note: I don't respond to random DMs from guys I don't know (hint: it's creepy). Pronouns: She/Her
Absolutely. And MAGA men wonder why no decent women don't want to date them.

Amazon Web Services hosts massive surveillance systems for both ICE and DHS.

Citizens Bank provides nearly $1 trillion in credit & bonds to private prison companies.

AT&T has a $147 million contract to provide communications services to DHS.

Know who is profiting from ICE’s cruelty.

Here's the thing, Greg — free speech is still protected by the First Amendment under the Constitution.

If you want folks to stop saying you're the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people, maybe stop acting like the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people.
Bovino: "When politicians, community leaders, & some journalists engage in that heated rhetoric we keep talking about, when they make the choice to vilify law enforcement calling law enforcement 'Gestapo' or using the term 'kidnapping,' that is a choice & there are actions & consequences."

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara: "People have had enough. This is the third shooting in less than 3 weeks. The MPD went the entire year last year recovering about 900 guns from the street, arresting hundreds of violent offenders, and we didn't shoot anyone ... this is not sustainable."

So much for that Second Amendment some of you love more than our country's children...
Hey NRA, are you good with this?

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.

I appreciate those out there protesting at great risk to their lives however i think the nation needs to grind this economy to a dead stop.
It's something everyone can do safely. No spending on ANYTHING but absolute necessities.
I understand some shut ins can not do this but very many of us can.

Another American citizen murdered by the MAGA administration.
The Washington Post published a clear video of federal agents removing Alex Pretti's handgun moments before he was fatally shot. There's nothing in the video to suggest Pretti even reached for his weapon.

“Shot dead” is passive. “murdered” names the actor. Words matter, especially when the state is pulling the trigger.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

Alex Pretti was an American hero. He saved lives. He protected people. He cared deeply about his community, unlike the murderous thugs who killed him.

The very last thing he did was try to help a woman who had been pepper-sprayed and violently shoved to the ground by ICE. 1/

Holy shit. This speaks volumes about the midterms ahead.

Does MAGA bother to watch the videos for themselves or just swallow whatever BS they are fed? If I were MAGA, I would be insulted that my party's leadership thinks I'm so incredibly stupid as to believe an obvious lie when evidence to the contrary is so widely available.
Noem:

"An individual approached US border patrol officers... The officers attempted to disarm this individual, but the armed suspect reacted violently."

Video footage from multiple angles proves that this is outright bullshit.

Alex Pretti did not approach ICE officers nor did he react violently.

Alex Pretti, the man killed by federal agents today in Minneapolis, appears to have been a registered nurse, an athlete, a son and a brother, with ties to Colorado and Wisconsin.

Here is a photo he used for several accounts.

So much for those 2A rights...
So now ICE is taking away people’s guns and murdering them after?

By who? Who shot the person dead? You saw the video. We all know a federal agent shot a man dead who was prone on the ground. Also, it's not "according to officials." It's according to verified video seen with your eyes. Not saying what anyone can obviously see with their eyes is a form of lying.

I would love to see Newsom just start reaching out to world leaders and meeting with them, negotiating things for California... It will absolutely drive Trump bonkers (okay, we all know he's already bonkers, but you catch my drift).
Could make arguments either way on whether this is a direct violation of Article I, Sect. 10, Clause 3. Not that I oppose it. Time for states to start exercising authority in weird ways, regardless of whether they have such authority.

ICE murdered another man this morning. Enough!

🚨🔥 #GVerse: This is Minneapolis today

Thousands in the streets in subzero weather, shutting the city down, demanding #FuckICE out.

Corporate media can ignore it, but history won’t.
