This could be me. I am Minneapolis.
A retired Minneapolis couple who had guns pointed at them by ICE in a church parking lot.

"They were obviously not trained at all. I've known many police officers in my life. These people were right off the streets."

"They had the professional demeanor of criminals."

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"

Trump regime ICE forces are mutilating unarmed civilians. Regime forces are firing kinetic impact projectiles at close range, causing severe injuries that can result in permanent disability or death. Today, they tore off part of a woman’s hand. #3E #GoodvsEvil

Alex Pretti was murdered while trying to protect a woman from being assaulted by federal agents

This is the pink jacket lady’s angle. (From Drop Site News)

Horrific. Bovino is a stone cold liar.

Pretti wasn’t attacking officers, he had just helped a lady they assaulted and had gotten pepper sprayed.

🚨ICE Supposedly Releasing Detainees in Freezing Cold Temps. (1/21/26)

I posted something about this earlier and said I would update as the information came in. I found this interview by Status Coup. I believe it to be 100% until proven otherwise.
ICE are murderers.

This is so immoral. There is no justice for terrorizing a 5-year-old.

Read proposed policy changes for CPB - it outlines why you DON'T STAND IN FRONT OF A CAR. Jonathan Ross teaches this tactic in his ICE weapons class. Put your self in front of the car, then if they move the car, shoot to kill first, ask questions later. This directly opposes written protocols.

“That’s fine, dude. I’m not mad at you.”

@KristiNoem needs to resign.
@JDVance owes her son an apology.

Shame on everyone.

Want to protest Trump policies, but looking for less volatile ways to protest? Volunteer in ways which protest Trump policies. Food banks are in need of both volunteers and donations. Plant trees in parks, coach kids sports, walk dogs at a shelter, help a veteran get to medical appointments.

ICE, under DHS Secretary Khristi Noem, is pushing cruelty without accountability or repercussions. The brutality is the point. What does society get in return for teaching/supporting unrestrained brutality? Domestic violence and terrorism. This comes at a huge cost to the rest of us.
