video from iceout.org earlier today at the whipple outside minneapolis shows a hennepin county sheriff’s deputy shoving the head of a protestor who was already tackled into the ground we need someone to challenge dawanna witt for sheriff. this brutality happening under her watch is unacceptable

someone transported here from 1995 with a layman's understanding of the Republican Party - "they like low taxes for the rich and aggressive use of the military" - would be more correct in their assessment of the party than many ostensibly savvy pundits working right now

Our only choice for governor, apparently.

Kristi Noem actually saying what is driving the extraordinary elections maneuvers. Flag this one.

TRIGGER WARNING, because here is a US Marshal from Trump‘s Gestapo Force in Memphis kicking a puppy today in the Whitehaven neighborhood and breaking its rib. They were serving a warrant and I guess BIG MAN got scared of the schnauzer. (I didn’t take the video, the dog’s person did)

Historians believe the ‘Mini-polis’ or ‘small-city’ to be an allegorical or metaphorical place, possibly an agglomeration of several different cities, given the unlikelihood of so many significant events occurring rapidly in such a small place.

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him. White. Hot. Rage.

Please help us bring Liam Adrian Cornejo Ramos (he’s only 5 years of age and is currently in pre-K. Yesterday, he and his father were kidnapped by ICE. This will help the family with legal services to help reunite Liam and his dad with their family. gofund.me/be8a1b2ab

"Liam’s teacher, Ella Sullivan, teared up when thinking about Liam. 'He’s a bright young student,' she said, 'and he’s so kind and loving. His classmates miss him.'" www.startribune.com/preschooler-...

Trump: We could do war. Europe: We could. Trump: We could win war. Europe: I mean... Stalin "won" Stalingrad. Trump: ... Europe: ... Macron: Don't you have some nonwhite countries to fuck with? Trump: Can I at least have Iceland? Europe: Dude, go home.

The Kavanaugh Crisis worsens.

I’m the one in the brown hat. What you might not see is the victim in the car. His feet are pointing out the open car door. An agent is sitting on one of his legs. He’s only wearing crocs. Bystanders found his legal work visa in his abandoned car. #AbolishICE

i was talking with someone in the twin cities about how it’s not even accurate to call them protesters. they’re literally just people protecting their city from TERRORISTS.

I find it relatively heartening, though, how they came in with “We can kill you at our whim” and have been forced to pivot to “Our widdle agents are so scared :( they’re bleeding internally :( this is just self-defense” Like say what you will about the Gestapo but they didn’t whine like this

This dude rules

Is this law enforcement or gang activity? Yanking a woman out of her car and into their truck; taunting her with insults about her looks; intimidating her with a story about how another associate killed that "lesbian bitch."

Arlit Maria Martinez’s only request was to visit her son, Kevin, who was dying of cancer. ICE refused and he died later that day. This Administration has no decency nor sense of humanity. We are in contact with Arlit's family and ICE must allow her to attend her son’s service.

Today at 34 & Park in Minneapolis, a woman tried to drive down the street where a protest had broken out in front of a home ICE was raiding, saying she had a doctor apt to get to. ICE agents busted out her windows, cut off her seatbelt, and pulled her out before arresting her.

Note that the fascist is not using the pepper spray for crowd control. He is entering a vehicle unimpeded to depart. He is simply using the pepper spray to physically punish an unarmed citizen he doesn't like.

This woman is harder than goddamn steel dealing with these goddamn thugs. I want her to be my neighbor.

America is now at the heavily armed secret police doing warrantless door-to-door house raids in search of undesirable ethnicities and/or political dissenters stage. The difference from well known historical cases is down to scale.

i believe the photographer who is taking the photo is Christopher Katsarov of the Canadian Press, and here is his photo

Ice commits an act of domestic terrorism against ICE. It's funny 🤣

Can’t make this shit up. 12 ice agents and 6 cars trying to break into the car they locked themselves out of

“power to the people” chant started by kids at the conclusion of the minneapolis families did public school press conference calling for ICE out of minneapolis

Minneapolis City Council member Jason Chavez: "Many of our immigrants neighbors are picked up simply by moving their cars. Help your neighbors take out the trash, because there are many reports of neighbors being kidnapped when they're taking their trash out."

Dawn Craig Angie loves taking away immigrants’ due process rights. I’m shocked she changed her tune while running for senate. Dawn and her AIPAC funders deserve our scorn. We deserve her retirement. She’ll always stand up as the only Democrat to attend that exclusive Jackson Hole crypto conference.

Yes, killing peaceful protesters is a sign of tyranny. www.nbcnews.com/world/iran/t...

Democrats cannot vote for a DHS budget that doesn’t restrain the growing lawlessness of this agency.

Context: A decade ago, Border Patrol agents had to be ordered not to put themselves in front of moving vehicles as a pretext to use deadly force www.americanimmigrationcouncil.org/blog/new-dir...

"You gonna murder someone else? You can't kill us all, Nazis."

The demand for dash cams here in the Twin Cities is huge; if you’re able, please consider purchasing from this wish list (or a giftcard of any amount) so we can get them out into the community ASAP.

ICE vs ice at 44th and Hiawatha earlier today.

BREAKING: Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar says her son was pulled over by immigration agents and asked to prove his citizenship.

The anti-Semitic mass shooting in Australia will cause a national conversation and policy change. We know this because the 1996 Port Arthur massacre led to significant restrictions on guns. The shooting at Brown will do nothing. We know this because it occurred on the anniversary of Sandy Hook.

MAGAZINER: How many veterans have you deported? NOEM: We haven't deported veterans MAGAZINER: We are now joined on Zoom by a combat veteran you deported to Korea
