Abolish ICE and throw their leaders in jail for terrorizing our communities. You cannot reform an entity designed as a fascist secret police accountable only to the president.
Why would you preserve an institution that only exists to hurt people? How can you "reform" that?

I think one thing people outside Minnesota don't understand is that after Good and Pretti were killed by feds while observing, the most normal people you could imagine have made peace with the fact that they could be next, and they are still out there because they say it's the right thing to do.
“If I am killed doing this, throw my body at the White House, martyr the shit out of me & raise hell. Do not be sad. Do not think I would do anything differently. I would do it over & over again — this is too important to sit down & shut up and not do anything.” www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

This is just insane. It’s only a matter of time before DHS kills another innocent person here.

New from 404 Media: here is the user guide for ELITE, the tool Palantir made for ICE. A map shows people on a map; ICE clicks them, brings up their dossier. ICE uses to find which neighborhoods to target. We obtained it, you can now read the document for yourself: www.404media.co/here-is-the-...
Here is the User Guide for ELITE, the Tool Palantir Made for ICE
404 Media is publishing a version of the user guide for ELITE, which lets ICE bring up dossiers on individual people and provides a “confidence score” of their address.

There is not, and will never be, a police brutality victim that Republicans won't find a way to besmirch and delegitimize. Even if they have to bend over backward until their spines snap.
It appears that this video is legitimate, as the BBC has confirmed that they reviewed and analyzed it for the The News Movement and verified that it is Alex Pretti.
And it doesn't change anything whatsoever about what happened to him, nor justify it.

Or maybe, winning difficult elections in and of itself is not interesting enough to warrant a flattering national profile. He won and all he's done since is complain. Consider Goldman and Auchincloss, who get flack from the left but actually put forth some interesting ideas and file legislation.

Congresspeople who retire quickly after a career of doing nothing except scolding fellow Dems is good, actually. In 2026 this seat will be easily held by whatever Dem candidate secures the nomination because, at the very least, the GOP will nominate the most racist freak sociopath they can find.
