Already seeing a right-wing narrative that the victim had a gun & was pulling it out.
Be careful out there.

This Train Stops Fascists.
I'm on the Green Line towards downtown Minneapolis ICE OUT protest.
The train filled immediately. Even 20 stops away from our destination we reached capacity.
People are cheering at every stop when they see people waiting to board because we are all starting to realize how big this is.

🧵When videos of ICE chokeholds, artery presses were reviewed by former police and DHS officials, they were appalled.
"This is what bad policing looks like, they said. And it puts everyone at risk."

Videos show dozens of incidents of immigration agents using life-threatening tactics.
In nearly 20 cases, agents appear to use neck restraints that the Department of Homeland Security prohibits unless there is a threat of deadly or serious harm.

This is authoritarianism, plain and simple.
The Trump administration is targeting states that didn’t vote for him — including my home state of Vermont.
Using federal power to punish political opponents is anti-democratic and blatantly illegal.

Whatever is in the Epstein Files is so explosive that the leaders of the Department of Justice are openly breaking the law every day to keep us from seeing it. (Just a reminder amongst all the other stuff flying around.)

🚨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.

fwiw this is the kind of stuff that is going to get us through, not playing rambo
Minneapolis and Saint Paul have basically mobilized into a war economy of mutual aid and non-violent defense. I’ve never seen anything like it, even during Covid. People who barely vote are guarding their schools from ICE and doing the shopping for neighbors in hiding.
This is so smart. I’m so impressed with all the different ways you’re helping your neighbors.

This is stunning. Listen to this in Philadelphia.
Thousands singing “Hey-Oh, we won’t be silent while our friends are gunned down.”
