Democrats should be out there hammering the line “this is what mass deportations looks like” and calling for amnesty, but they’re gonna keep insisting reform is the answer and they’re also tough on immigration,.

Even if Bovino and CBP leave there will still be ICE and lots of other DHS goonsquads running around. There's no victory until they're all driven out.

Really hard to look at this and all the other examples of bravery and kindness from ordinary people in this moment not think also of the tremendous cowardice exhibited over the past year by some of the richest, most well-protected people in business, media and politics
Let us all have the courage displayed by the residents of Minneapolis.

Thinking about how Rev James Reeb was 38 when he answered the call to march in Selma. Before he could march, white goons beat him so hard he died two days later. As a kid, 38 seemed a sort of abtract "that's a full adult life" and while it it is it is also so so young. Good and Pretti were both 37.

Genuinely the only thing keeping me going—but it really is keeping me going—is how good it is to see people link arms and push for this to end.
I cannot stop thinking about how much love people can have for their neighbors, and how much work and money is poured into breaking that love apart.

Get involved locally, seek out and build bonds with the people around you, learn their names, check in with them, lend a hand when needed. I can't stress enough how much they dread the trust and strength that can be found in community.

Alex from our time working together, while he was in nursing school. Later, he moved to ICU, working as a nurse to support critically ill Veterans. He had such a great attitude. We’d chat between patients about trying to get in a mountain bike ride together. Will never happen now

I have spent my entire adult life being lectured by Republican politicians and conservative legal movement types about how important it is to preserve the sacred constitutional right to self-defense of *specifically this person* and then secret police murdered him in the street
Minneapolis police chief Brian O'Hara says that the victim was a 37-year-old white man and US citizen with no criminal record and that he was a legally permitted gun owner.

“don’t give them what they want”
they are manufacturing their justifications post-hoc. they are already doing what they want. you are not responsible for the actions of your oppressor. you are only responsible for keeping your neighbors safe and that will always be seen as defiance

ICE isn’t about immigration. It’s about violence, fear and control.

Minneapolis protester as he's being brutalized by feds: "You're gonna have to kill me! You're gonna have to kill me! I've done nothing wrong! My name is Matthew James! I'm a US citizen! You're gonna kill me! Is that what you want?" (You can hear his wife screaming)

They split my palms and yours, but when we sutured each other, we hid keys in those wounds. Inside others, dynamite. Inside others, thread and needle. Safety found together in planned obstinance, absolved and unrepentant.

At the end of the day, the Black Lives Matter era was about whether people should be killed in the street, and lots of people decided yeah and put those little blue flags on their cars. It spread to everyone because it stopped for no one.

I don't think I need to add any words to the "video is horrific, don't watch it unless you're prepared," but the real concern is it's clear what little discipline ICE had is collapsing under the stress and constant opposition and that's real dangerous.

There has been an increasing sense in Minneapolis that we are on our own, that our elected representatives are unwilling and/or unable to take action to get these murderous Nazi thugs out of our community. I really hope that changes today. The time for pleading TV hits ended weeks ago.
