I believe speaker Mike Johnson was quoted as saying that ice is doing what it is designed to do...
I don’t think people quite understand that the occupation by ICE in the Twin Cities has more or less erased non-white people from public life. They cannot safely exist in any space accessible to the public and moving between private places leaves folks vulnerable to kidnapping by armed masked goons.

Renee Nicole Good was murdered. Marimar Martinez was shot. Mahmoud Khalil was arrested and jailed.

The next could be you.

What’s at stake isn’t just American democracy. It’s also your safety and security and that of your loved ones.

This is personal — to every one of us.

and again in later neo-KKK and “white homeland” movements. In that context, “home” explicitly meant the United States as a white-only nation, and the phrase was used to frame racial violence, intimidation, and exclusion as “reclaiming” the country.

one of the weirdest things about the current moment is how the national media have to pretend like they don't know what this is about. official government social media accounts are posting about racially cleansing America and they have to pretend like it's not clear who the bad guy is.

a queer woman lightly mocked an ICE officer so they shot her wife right in front of her. now they’re trying to justify it by making it a capital crime to mock them

in many ways that’s a core tenet of right-wing ideology: Lesser People should be forbidden (by force if necessary) to laugh at you
This is appalling: Top DOJ officials are actively pushing for a criminal investigation into the widow of Renee Good, leading prosecutors to quit en masse, NYT is reporting.

Who in the White House ordered DOJ to do this? That's the next thing to establish.

For context, this is Felon Trump mocking President Biden's cough. It's not Trump dying on stage. Just him being vulgar as always. It's around the middle of the speech.

He is not joking, treat each threat as a declaration and prepare a contingency plan. Mexico, Canada, Greenland (Denmark), Europe must increase military cooperation and intelligence sharing.
Trump declared that he will unilaterally attack Mexico. This is a declaration of war.

I don't think it's a coincidence that all of this (worldwide) is happening when most of the people who lived through WWII have just died. We need to do a better job of keeping their memories and ideals alive.

if cops weren't killing and hurting and abducting people anywhere and some randos were just damaging property for no reason I'd say, what the fuck, but given that one side is "shooting moms in the head" and the other side is "making it harder for the shooter's friends to sleep" i know who I back

You are doing the right thing. It sucks to be under siege but you are under siege. And you won't be free while these law enforcement agencies continue to exist.
I can't describe how bad Minneapolis feels right now. My neighbors are pulling kids out of school. The public schools are offering remote learning until 2/12. We are having conversations in our alleys about how to protect ourselves. It feels like a military occupation with a blockade.
The US Department of Agriculture suspends all federal funding to Minnesota, effective immediately.

it is impossible for mayors or cops to learn positive lessons about protest response because they all have two immovable beliefs:

1. it is evil and childish to hold police officers accountable for violent acts

2. cops must be present at all times during protests
The lesson Frey and Walz were supposed to learn in 2020 was that sending riot police to a peaceful protest creates a confrontation that results in some dipshit cops shooting people in the eye with a gas canister which then we have to goddamn pay for in settlements while also our city burns.

We evacuated our kids out of Minneapolis this weekend and my spouse reports that as she drove them out of town she saw "multiple freeway exits where people are being pulled over." It feels like the Twin Cities is being subjugated by a hostile occupying force.

Not an exaggeration at all to say that the feeling in Minneapolis is that the entire metro area is being treated as occupied territory by federal agents. Impossible to overstate how overwhelmingly people here do not like it. This does not feel sustainable.

Donald Trump doubles down on threatening Greenland with invasion: he declares that he wants a “deal” with Denmark; but if they don’t agree, “we’re going to do it the hard way.”

Calling her a ‘fu*king bitch’ immediately after shooting her 3 times in the head clearly indicates he fired his gun IN ANGER and NOT in self defence.

He kills her because he can’t control his anger.

This is murder. Any society that deems it otherwise is not a just society.

there is no positive route forward for the United States without mass arrests and trials for DHS employees
You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today.

This could be you.

they have plenty of goons unless people decide to make that number insufficient

but right now? they have all the goons they need
So to return to this: Mussolini had 200,000 blackshirts for the March on Rome in a country of ~35m. Hitler had 400,000 brownshirts in 1932 in Germany for a population of ~60m.

So around 0.6% of the population.

0.6% of 340m Americans is just over 2 million.

They do not have enough goons.
In 1932, on the eve of seizing power, the Nazi goon army - the Sturmabteiling or SA - numbered 400,000 members. By 1933, it was over two *million.*

DHS has 240,00 employees and lot of those are non-goons who have, you know, real jobs.
