What fence-sitting, complicit, fascist-fueling piece of shit letter. And Pearl Jam should be embarrassed for thinking this is progressive.

LA, Portland &Chicago showed us the bravery of its citizens protesting the violence ICE/CBP used to apprehend immigrants. Minneapolis is showing the world how Minnesotans peacefully protect their community from armed,uniformed, unidentifiable, thugs committing violent crimes against them.

Continue to do what we're doing now. They are, in fact, precisely NOT ignoring us. They're starting to jettison staff in panic. Check your news for "Bovino," for example.

Mine's an idiot too! He actually nominated TBoy for the Nobel Peace Prize! 🤦🏻‍♀️ But I think Bovino is retiring out, since he was slated to go when he turned 57 anyway. So he'll eventually get a govt pension icing on his hate cake. 🙄

Just amazed how Obama, Biden, and even W were able to deport so many people during their terms without the destruction of Constitutional Rights, lawlessness of ICE, concentration camps, kidnapping, and murder that we’re seeing under the trump/Noem/Miller regime.

Defund ICE! To compare, the border control bill Rep James Lankford sponsored 2/2025, (had bipartisan votes to pass before Trump rejected it) had 7.6B in ICE funding built into it. Just six months later, the Big Bad Terrible Bill funded ICE with 75B! That was our health care money. We want it back.

Greg Bovina should be tried in court for the lives his ICE team has cost and for the havoc that they have caused in our beautiful state. No human being deserves to be dragged from their car, windows broken, manhandled mercilessly. #JusticeForReneeGood #RemoveTrumpFromOffice #DefundTrump

@milpool.bsky.social

Barack Obama? the President that increased both ICE funding and deportations over his Republican Predecessor? The guy who gave Tom Homan a medal for being good at deporting people?

Across America and the world, people are realizing it’s not possible to appease America’s dictator. The only way to deal with him is to stand up to him — and the only way to stand up to him is by joining together against him. It's time for a massive general strike across the country.

If Obama had delivered the change he promised while in office, the US would never have neded up with Trump as president. It's exactly because democrats didn't challenge the status quo that people turned to fascism.

What's wrong with you, US Americans? The Obamas wrote: "... shootings of Mr. Pretti and Renee Good." It's "Mr Pretti and Ms. Good" OR "Alex Pretti and Renee Good." You suffer from #sexism and its conjoined twin, #racism. If you ever want to be a world power again, you'd better stop this behaviour.

Paul Arnheim-Projekt
@paula-projekt.bsky.social

You've two major problems: institutionalized #sexism and its conjoined twin, #racism, which led to #FOTUS #TACO #VPTrump becoming president. Ignoring this is absolutely not helpful. If you ever want to be a world power again, you'd better do without the twins whose parents are malice and stupidity.

Tracking license plates and collecting/transmitting the data is an act of stalking or harassment which is illegal in all 50 states. Especially when it's with the intent of malicious purpose or to harm. MN specifically has ALPR statutes governing the collecting of LP data.

I write emails to all three of my reps every single day. One is a lifer Republican and his staff have never been kind or receptive. I’ve suddenly started receiving ridiculous anonymous text messages with no point. I did expect something like this to start up but of course I can’t prove anything.

You guys were always on the right side. I hope Pearl Jam will be playing at the Ohana festival this year in Dana Point, California. My wife and I have been fans since the 90’s and it will be our first Ohana festival. We saw you in Pittsburgh, PA for the last show of the tour. My 1st ever show!!!

I agree of course, but have to point out: what the Obamas' call out has been happening in states across the nation: from CA, to OR, to CO, to ME, to MA. It is the nation's problem not just that of Minnesota. And Minnesota's victory needs to be leveraged and repeated across the country.

You don’t need to go to a website to contact Congress. They have a phone number and they take calls more seriously than automated emails You can talk to any congressperson or senator, even if they aren’t your own. (202) 224-3121 Leave a stern message or talk nicely with the staff, politeness wins

Where is GWBush's statement? ICE was part of his pet Patriot Act legislation, no? Name me one Repuglican that has held up any American Values or any care period for America after they leave office. I take mad issue with Obama's presidency; however, there is no doubt he cares.

Xipe (Sheep-aye)
@xipechicuauhtli.bsky.social

Ahh yes the Obamas who notoriously intensified ICE and border patrol operations and propped up detention centers and had the highest record of deportations than any other president before Trump rolled through. They are the same guilty garbage that created this monster of ICE. History is important

jfgnv145.bsky.social
@jfgnv145.bsky.social

History is important and your ignorance is inexcusable. None of this chaos and purposeful cruelty were happening under Obama and a high number deported had criminal records. Obama tried to pass immigration reform with a path to citizenship for the undocumented and granted citizenship to "dreamers".

You do realize that you're admitting that you have no real moral compass, right? None of you care at all about the three million deported.

He was hounded for being a black man and anti-blackness was in full display against him in ways that only a black man would be subjected to, that is true entirely. But that doesn’t negate that he also perpetuated imperialism and upheld the violent xenophobia of this country.

Xipe (Sheep-aye)
@xipechicuauhtli.bsky.social

Holding the memory, the history and holding accountable the foundations of where this all started, where it was supported & propped up & perpetuated, does not mean normalization. Resistance without historical context is how we stay in this. They been hunting us down before it touched white people

Fran LaMorte
@grammyfran.bsky.social

Obama would never condone what the ICE agents did- murder. ICE knowing that those 2 people did not pose a serious threat shot each person more than once for what? Obstructing justice? Obama never would have more ICE agents in a state ounumbering the state law enforcement. Stop the BS

Fran LaMorte
@grammyfran.bsky.social

Were there ICE deaths under Obama? Yes. Condone? Never read or saw anything to indicate he condoned it. There IS no comparison to ICEs tactics under any other president. Trump admin is specifically targeting democratic lead states and the ICE agents are acting with impunity.

Droneman Obama can eat my ass. If they cared they would have been screaming about this months and months ago. Renee Good and Alex Pretti are not the first to die at the hands of ICE, only the most well known. ICE needs ABOLISHED and the officers ARRESTED! We don't need ICE, we never have or will.

Wasnt it Obamarama who preached hope as a ‘strategy’. As if he was launching his own gospel channel. He cashed in on it, but he sent the wrong! message. Democrats made a real mess of it. Hiding under the stairs of Congress and sending grandpa Biden to the front door to ‘defend’ the sunday’s china.

Hey, here's an idea. How about - instead of charging $1500 a seat you do a FREE concert to support actions against the brutality that murdered Good and Pretti. You know, no vapid flaccid support on social media. Put your instruments where your mouths are.
