SOLIDARITY: Brass Solidarity is a community band that has been meeting weekly to spread music since 2021. They typically play Mondays at 5:30 p.m. at George Floyd Square, but on Jan. 12 they performed at the memorial where Renee Good was killed by ICE goon Jonathan Ross.

DEAR DEMOCRATS IN CONGRESS‼️
stop talking like there is any possibility of making ICE a better ICE. It’s not happening.
ICE needs to go. Period.
What are you saying? “Let’s make slave catchers nicer.” It’s moral nonsense.

Remember: The real freeloaders in this country are the rich — not the poor or immigrants or any other group of people vilified as scapegoats. The richest 1% evade $163 billion in taxes every year. The United States literally has yacht and private jet tax deductions. Hello?

From a good friend in Minneapolis: "Target is allowing ICE to stage in their parking lots, use their restrooms, and abduct people from inside their stores - so if you weren’t boycotting already, now is the time." They were staging in Chicago as well.

This should not be happening. We should not have to say this should not be happening. What an amazing strong woman there.
America is now at the heavily armed secret police doing warrantless door-to-door house raids in search of undesirable ethnicities and/or political dissenters stage. The difference from well known historical cases is down to scale.
A video of ICE agents conducting door-to-door searches today in Minneapolis
The homeowner requests a warrant repeatedly, is told they don't require one, then is told they're getting it, then the agents storm in anyway
They also point a taser at her to try and disrupt filming

The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"
"Learned what?" she asks
Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

they didn’t leak it to make the shooter look innocent, but to make the victim look guilty. not guilty of a crime. guilty of having a visibly queer wife. guilty of liberalism. guilty of opposing the regime. they don’t seek to exonerate themselves, only to demonstrate who deserves to die.
In the video that the shooter took, which I believe was leaked to be exculpatory, he appears to yell “fucking bitch” after he shoots Renee Good.
