@ronjohnsonwi.bsky.social Halt all ICE operations until they can be fully investigated and held accountable. Stop the killing of Americans and guests.

Too obvious a point even to make, perhaps. But there was no “unrest” in Minneapolis before ICE and CBP showed up. ICE and CBP are the cause of the chaos…and the killings.

Get them out of there.

"The agents presumably had a good laugh about this. Perhaps they relished their meal even more because the staff was frightened. Humiliation of victims, a kind of relish in their fear and misery, a kind of sadism has become a dominant part of the culture of ICE."

I’m almost finished rereading The Grapes of Wrath and I’m feeling as militant now as I did when I first read it as a teenager.

There are quite a few bumble bees around now out in the fields. This one was flying near some spotted knap weed along a roadside. The Sandhill Cranes and Canada Geese are starting to arrive. #Nature
