I am sick and tired of seeing law enforcement target observers instead of ICE agents who are breaking the law. Immigration officials are not absolved from the law. 1/

Notice that Democratic Party leaders are not only not proposing meaningful measures to stop this, but they are actively proposing to *keep giving ICE money to do it.*

The idea that you could put some set of rules in place that would stop federal violence workers from detaining U.S. citizens while leaving the rest in place right now is absurd.

🚨"They're stealing the car!"

As Tom Homan vows "safer" ICE operations, ICE rammed into a driver's car in Minneapolis—in front of an elementary school—then chased him. After failing to catch him—they stole his car. "Back up before I f*cking spray you!" ICE yelled at observers ⬇️

Here is a video taken just this morning of ICE pepper spraying my friend who was standing several feet away, and behind a fence, from agents attempting an abduction.

Nothing about their conduct has changed. We need to continue our observations but please do so as safely as possible.

Fuck ICE.

They can tell themselves whatever lies help them justify a retreat.

But the facts are that the public here has been determinedly law abiding. The preponderance of unlawful acts have been committed *by* Holman's law enforcement and *against* the community.

This "rhetoric" is a response to reality.
Homan: "I call upon those officials to stand shoulder to shoulder with us to tone down the dangerous rhetoric and condemn all unlawful acts against law enforcement in the community"

This morning, Tom Homan said that operations will be more targeted, but that’s not what we are seeing. If you are vulnerable to deportation, I want you to know that you still have to be careful. 1/

Very little if anything seems to have changed on the ground. ICE is still out there terrorizing neighborhoods and trying to disappear neighbors. None of us on the ground are buying this bullshit. We will keep organizing and fighting.
The intense fallout from the killing of Alex Pretti has forced President Trump to publicly change course in Minneapolis.

Listen to our White House reporters discuss the changes on today's episode of "The Daily."
Trump Changes Course in Minneapolis
The White House has been met with broad outcry over the killing of Alex Pretti, as well as pushback from Congress.

People are missing a big thing about the saga of the detained 5-year-old. When Vance calls the father an "illegal alien" it seems to reflect a little-known Trump admin move that attempts to nullify asylum claims before they are even heard.

This policy is a horror:

"overstate wrongs that have been committed?" your lardkorps shot a woman three times in the head and called her a "fucking bitch" as they walked away, we don't need to overstate shit!!!!!!!!!!!
Vance: "Dems decided they didn't want to talk about fraud from Somalians, they wanted to talk about the 'brutality of immigration enforcement.' 2hat you've seen is a viral effort to try to inflate what's actually going on, to overstate wrongs that have been committed. They're trying to distract."

🚨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional!

ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth and private conversation.

Some of you are positioned to sway people who need to be swayed. Some of you are taking action and can invite others to join you. Some of you are just posting or panicking, but can find your way into action. Wherever you are, there is something to do.

I’m the one in the brown hat.

What you might not see is the victim in the car. His feet are pointing out the open car door. An agent is sitting on one of his legs. He’s only wearing crocs.

Bystanders found his legal work visa in his abandoned car.

#AbolishICE
This is what happened in our neighborhood yesterday. ICE snatched a human being off of our streets, roughed them up badly, and then pepper sprayed legal observers as they documented it all. This is a daily occurrence happening all throughout Minnesota right now.

This person who successfully committed suicide (something which jails are supposed to protect against) was being held at a random Georgia jail through a contract with the U.S. Marshal Service, which let ICE use its network of contracts with local jails. This is not a big detention center.
