We've heard that Ian Austin has also been arrested again, this time for...protesting at the church.

Everybody's First Amendment rights are at risk. Not just journalists. Everybody, everywhere.
Ian Austin, an Army veteran, was arrested for protesting ICE in Minneapolis. But he’s continued protesting. Senior reporter @julialurie.bsky.social spoke to him.

“When they say, ‘Why would you be out here?’ How the fuck could I not be out here?” he says. “My nation is under attack."

Hey Schumer, was this part of your spending talks?

DHS is spending millions and millions in cash on warehouses to cage people.

Is Congress just going to sit there and let the fascist Trump regime turn America into a nation of concentration camps?

@schumer.senate.gov
🧵This is what our tax dollars are going towards.

Not education, health care, or public transport.

Cages for people.

DHS just paid $70 million in cash for a warehouse in Surprise, AZ.

The week before, $102 million for one in Maryland.

A third in El Paso.

A retired Minneapolis couple who had guns pointed at them by ICE in a church parking lot.

"They were obviously not trained at all. I've known many police officers in my life. These people were right off the streets."

"They had the professional demeanor of criminals."

After saying two weeks of surveillance footage was lost in a "system crash," DHS now says it was never recorded at all. This is a response to detainees suing the government who say they were held in subhuman, illegal conditions. @jasonkoebler.bsky.social reports.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

For those of us who covered the role of Stephen Miller in Trump 1, what's happening now w DHS head Kristi Noem is a striking reprise of the WH response to the family separation tragedy in 2018. On Monday, Noem had a 2 hour meeting w Trump where she tried to defend herself. 1/

The official policy of the government of the United States of America is that they will murder anyone they want, that they will tell any lie necessary to justify that murder, and that no one who resists them has any rights they are bound to respect.

AOC: "An ICE officer had violently pushed a woman to the ground and he had come over to help get her up and that is what precipitated this incident that very quickly led to an execution in the streets. What we are seeing here is a momentous pivotal moment for the United States."
