A man's six kids, one of them a six-month-old were all admitted to hospital after ICE threw a flash bang grenade at his car as he was trying to drive out of the area.

Wrong. He's victim-blaming. I watched the press conference. Go watch it.
January 15, 2026 at 3:48 PM
I don't get it, what difference would that make and why do you think he thinks he needs an excuse to do anything?

Frey and his police chief aren't going to save anyone. ICE isn't leaving if the streets are empty. They're going into people's homes and ripping people out of their cars. They are killing Minnesotans.

I don't care if your cops are outnumbered. The people standing up to ICE are unarmed!

They may break down your door at your home also, but just go home and hide
You probably can't go anywhere in town without the threat of the Gestapo, but please, behave

That's what these cointerinsurgency propagandists mean by 'taking the bait'. They're trying to achieve by propaganda what ICE and CBP have failed to achieve through brute force and terror: submission and compliance.

Right but no alt text excludes people who don't have access to images. Are you saying they are not worth the time? The culture here is to use alt text, not to ask those who point out that images need alt text to contact Bluesky about new features.

Did you know that you can set up a reminder to add alt text? Alt text helps vision impaired posters understand images.
Go to Settings, then Accessibility, and make sure "Require alt text before posting" is toggled on - this will prompt you each time you add an image to your post!

And this is the country that's trying to take over the Western Hemisphere in some vain attempt to fill the empty void of your so-called 'president'??
The world sees this. The world sees how you treat your citizens.
The world doesn't want America.
The world no longer trusts America.
January 15, 2026 at 6:35 AM
It is. It is absolutely unbearable. It's an affront to justice to our sense of morality, to civilisation, to humanity itself. We learned this lesson in the Nuremberg trials!
January 15, 2026 at 9:45 AM
And then that pathetic excuse for a mayor has the gall to blame the citizens he represents and tell them to submit and go home. The fucking audacity. 😑

After ICE agents shot people in Minneapolis tonight, a crowd faced them down and eventually chased them away, despite federal mercenaries and police shooting a tremendous amount of tear gas.

ICE agents abandoned vehicles in the area, containing IDs, paperwork, license plates, and operational plans.

Exactly, we don't want them in Europe.
January 15, 2026 at 6:21 AM
Ugh, who is supposed to take them?
January 15, 2026 at 6:20 AM
Yeah exactly, of course you wouldn't know.

You're right, I don't do outreach for the BTNs. I'm anti-Covid and I'm a masker, I am NOT a collaborator.

Oh wow, preaching anti-mask rhetoric, some 'outreach'.

American people keep pointing out fascism happening in their country.

The rest of the world nods and goes "Yeah, we know that your country is being hijacked by Fascism. You uh... gonna do anything about it?"

American people: Β―\_(ツ)_/Β―

It means "If something is wrong, and YOU are capable of taking corrective action, YOU have the responsibility to take corrective action."

What actions should be taken? That is up to you at this point. Do nothing, and fascism wins.
