Nearly 17,000 international fans have already cancelled their World Cup tickets to protest Trump’s violent immigration crackdown — and the number is rising fast. 🌍⚽️
The 2026 World Cup was supposed to be a global celebration. Instead, it’s turning into a global boycott of Trump’s America.

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 message from the White House this morning is that, once again, it falls on ordinary American citizens to remain calm and professional when dealing with the heavily armed agents of the government because they are very emotional and might fly off into a murderous rage at the slightest insult.

It’s hard to know if people outside MN understand how much of life is grinding to a halt here because of Trump’s occupation. Schools have shut down, businesses are scaling back hours or closing because their employees aren’t safe. The whole city is weighted down.

Understand what they're doing, because it's not just disappearing people, it's teaching America to submit.
President Obama deported more undocumented immigrants than Trump without killing or terrorizing people. The Trump policies aren’t about immigration, they’re about training Americans to submit to or join their terrorism.
Just like ISIS.

Yes, JD. Let’s ask them if they think a stay at home mom, avowed Christian, and widow of a veteran deserved to be shot in the face and left to bleed out in her own car after dropping her 6-year-old off at school, for the crime of looking out for her neighbors. Let’s ask everyone running for office.

Millions of Americans watched a middle-aged US citizen get shot in the face and killed by an ICE officer today. That's a level of national trauma that deserves a more respectful response from this administration than falsely claiming she's a domestic terrorist. We have lost our moral compass.
