I’m the one in the brown hat.
What you might not see is the victim in the car. His feet are pointing out the open car door. An agent is sitting on one of his legs. He’s only wearing crocs.
Bystanders found his legal work visa in his abandoned car.

This is what happened in our neighborhood yesterday. ICE snatched a human being off of our streets, roughed them up badly, and then pepper sprayed legal observers as they documented it all. This is a daily occurrence happening all throughout Minnesota right now.

Sunday, at least 7 ICE agents stormed a house and took an elderly man out into the freezing cold, wearing only his underwear and a blanket.
He was a member of the Hmong community, which came to the area from Laos in the 1970s after siding with the US in the Vietnam War.

As President Trump cracks down on immigration in Minneapolis, he’s finding the public is not with him.
The majority of voters disapprove of ICE’s work and think the agency is making cities less safe, polls show.

Well, there it is. Sinclair is digging in for a fight, so please help push back -- find stations in your area, watch their local news to see what ads they run, then write those advertisers to tell them you're boycotting as long as they're on a Sinclair station.

As a former Texas State Rep, let me be clear: LOCKING Rep. Nicole Collier inside the chamber is beyond outrageous.
Forcing elected officials to sign “permission slips” & take police escorts to leave? That’s not procedure. That’s some old Jim Crow playbook.

I see the misinformation machine is kicking up to support Marjorie Taylor Greene’s Israel amendment.
Advocates have a responsibility to be clear about what legislation does and doesn’t do. Her amendment did NOT cut off offensive aid to Israel. We shouldn’t pretend it does.

For every millionaire household that would get a tax break from Republicans’ big, ugly bill, 19 Americans would be stripped of their health coverage.
Their priorities couldn’t be clearer.
We must stop this devastating bill.

Overseeing the presidential gift rules was among my duties as White House Ethics Czar -- so I know how it's supposed to work
