A big fist bump between Signature Aviation's fueler and the Eastern Air Express captain flying yesterday's ICE Air flight at MSP. They took away 24 shackled migrants from their homes around the Twin Cities. If a loved one may have been aboard, full video is here: youtube.com/watch?v=1-xmZiNEhC4

“I was on national TV and I called the president elect a fascist. And my comms team freaked out. But we have to confront reality" - Ilhan Omar, November 22, 2016 At Sabathani, a couple of weeks after we first elected our beloved Congresswoman.

I’m outraged by this attack on Representative Omar. Trump and his DOJ have a bizarre obsession with tearing down Minnesota, our leaders and our communities. This latest action, even as voting has already started in Minnesota, is a transparent attempt to interfere in our elections.

most of the headlines about this are complicit with the fascists in power, but let’s be clear: they raided her house because of who she is, not because she’s done anything to justify this treatment. the president shouldn’t be able to weaponize the government against his political enemies.

Mamdani: "We are talking a federal agency that is ripping families apart, that's willing to endanger the lives of a 5 year old child as well as any New Yorker in the surrounding area, % then after the fact, seeks to blame the person and the city at large as opposed to reflect upon their own actions"

The term everyone is dancing around is "secret police", a hallmark of totalitarian regimes.

Things got more insane just about as soon as I posted this last night. DHS is now arguing that we cannot even put the names of ICE officers in our lawsuit against those officers. Their position is that, if a defendant works for DHS, they cannot be named in a lawsuit. Never seen anything like it.

The NYPD just released surveillance video of the ICE shooting (which occurred off camera). Two men in civilian clothes run up to a car with guns drawn. One second later, one man begins smashing the butt of his gun into the driver’s side window. The driver appears to panic and hit the gas.

I am angry tonight. Because tonight ICE shot a New Yorker. They shot a New Yorker while his five year old child was in the car. ICE makes this city less safe. We want them out. Now.

“If you are staring at an example of social disorder or social inefficiency, and the left refuses to explain either why it has happened or how they will fix it, then the right gets to point at someone in the immediate area and say, ‘That’s who did it.’” crazy how much Mamdani speaks my language

Outside of the St Paul courthouse, protesters are fighting with agents. The feds are now charging 15 people with impeding immigration enforcement in Minneapolis- under the guise of "antifa". As an aside- in LA they have failed to obtain guilty verdicts in most cases brought against protesters.

Judge asks about protests outside the courthouse: Attorney Bruce Nestor says there's been a "propensity by law enforcement to indiscriminately and improperly use chemical munitions on peaceful protesters." He also said federal law enforcement have shown they can't be taken at their word. (7)
