I am trying not to post on these events in this state of mind but: I hope people understand what the observers are doing is brave and dangerous.

On one side is a nurse and a poet dying while saying “Are you okay?” and “I'm not even mad at you dude"

And on the other side are armed officers of the state saying “Boo hoo” and “Fucking bitch.”

And they want you to believe the first side are the domestic terrorists.
Alex Pretti’s last words were “are you ok?” said the woman next to him who ICE also pepper sprayed in the face.

The killings will continue until you give us the state voter rolls
Fox News: "I've gotten my hands that AG Bondi said she sent to Gov. Tim Walz. It is strongly worded. The AG calls for the governor to support the men and women of ICE, to repeal the state's sanctuary policies, and to allow the DOJ to access state voter rolls."

As someone who has spent over 35 years trying to explain that violence is inherent to policing only to have most people be OK with this, I could be excused if I decided to just give up. But I'm not. I knew we would be where we are today. I still think that we do not have to live like this.

Gov. Tim Walz: "Thank God we have video, because according to DHS, these seven heroic guys took an onslaught of a battalion against them or something. It's nonsense, people. It's nonsense and it is lies."

this is all downstream of the idea that some americans are more real than others. it’s a manifestation of the basic and fundamental logic of authoritarian populism. we will not heal ourselves until we understand that this kind of thinking - and this kind of rhetoric - is anathema to any free society

We have been told for nearly 30 years that America needed to tolerate mass shootings because the broad availability of guns would help us defend ourselves from an overreaching federal government. That day has come. The people who said this are supporting the federal agents. Many have joined them.

Both of Nevada's senators--Catherine Cortez Masto and Jacky Rosen--have officially come out against the DHS funding bill following the execution of Alex Pretti by ICE agents in Minneapolis this morning. This effectively ends the DHS funding bill in the Senate.

AOC: "What we are seeing is an administration that's deeply afraid of its own unpopularity. We must remember that we outnumber them. Donald Trump is less popular than he has ever been before. The GOP is on its back heels."

Just an absolutely deranged thing for a member of the cabinet to say.
“ICE > MN” is impeachable by itself.
This is an actual post from Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth: Praising ICE after Alex Pretti was killed, blaming the Democratic leadership of Minnesota, and writing that ICE is greater/better than Minnesota.

He is actively demeaning the people of Minnesota just hours after Pretti was murdered.

Klobuchar: "I have personally warned this administration that there would be more deaths, that more of this would happen, and clearly they are not listening. So we ask people around the country to talk to their Republican representatives, to make clear this is not the America that is ours."

Q: Are you willing to use every lever of power including a government shutdown to stop what's happening here?

KLOBUCHAR: Right now we're focused on getting ICE out of the state. Of course we will use every lever, but I do remind people that Trump runs the WH and sadly also seems to run Congress

AOC: They need 10 Democratic votes in the Senate to pass, continued unfettered ICE funding with no guardrails. Regardless of where you are in the Democratic party, this moment proves that the status quo cannot stand

I would implore my Democratic colleagues in the senate to vote no

What's happening in Minnesota is one reason the Reconstruction Amendments banned insurrectionists from holding office. Unfortunately, the originalists on the Supreme Court interpreted the plain language of the amendment to mean its opposite.

AOC: If you can keep people divided, then you can continue to loot the economy.

They are they are trying to distract from the fact that prices have exploded, that people's health insurance is being stripped, $1 trillion out of health care to fund this violence.
