Can someone force @schumer.senate.gov to read this verbatim?!
I wrote the speech I *wish* Chuck Schumer would give tonight - as an actual opposition leader. Here it is:

"My fellow Americans: At this hour, an unrestrained force of militarized and violent federal officers is carrying out a project of ethnic cleansing in the streets of American cities."

Senate Democrats will not provide the votes to proceed to the appropriations bill if the DHS funding bill is included.

Thankful I got this fluffball sitting on my lap.

Noem called him a "domestic terrorist".

Fucking unbelievable.

"Don't tread on me" actually meant "tread on them".

Kare 11 local news just read, in full, this statement from Michael and Susan Pretti, the parents of Alex Pretti.

"Please get the truth out about our son."

I like it when political representatives, specifically the ones I support, fucking swear when they're pissed off.

Fun fact: even if MN did this, ICE still wouldn't leave.

Never give into bullies. You can't trust them, ever.

Of course. This is expected.
Be safe out there

And DON’T USE YOUR REAL NAME ON SIGNAL

All net proceeds of all these shirts, hoodies and onesies will go to aid organizations in Minnesota working to protect their neighbors from terror. Fuck ICE, stand with Minneapolis.

I really hope @democrats.org get this:

NO amount of training, guard rails, etc. is going to fix ICE. ICE is a cancer.

I had to get groceries today, and I can assure you: it is FUCKING COLD out in Minnesota today.

People are white-hot with anger.

Fuckin' MELT ICE.

It better fucking stay this way.
The DHS funding bill is effectively dead in the Senate.

I know that I have said things that are critical of Walz.

I listened to him today, and....I have to take some of that back.

This is such a tremendously shitty series of events.

If anyone else thinks they could do better, please run for govener this year.

At no point did he ever draw his gun that he could LEGALLY carry.

This is straight-up murder by ICE.

AGAIN.

Damn.

Inject this straight into my spine.

It's wild to see all the "WE THE PEOPLE DONT TREAD ON ME 2ND AMENDMENT" MAGA idiots do a massive 180 to "just comply do what the government tells you to do".
January 24, 2026 at 8:25 PM
Just in case anyone needs reminding:

DO NOT BELIEVE A FUCKING WORD FROM DHS, ICE, FBI, THE WHITE HOUSE, ETC.

They will lie through their teeth, and they should never be trusted as long as the current administration is in power.
BREAKING: The Department of Homeland Security releases a statement on the fatal shooting in Minneapolis involving a federal agent. DHS claims the victim “approached U.S. Border Patrol officers with a 9 mm semi-automatic handgun.”

Stop killing us with your lawless, violent, untrained ICE agents.

GET OUT OF MINNESOTA!!
January 24, 2026 at 5:17 PM
Having a gun in MN is completely legal.

There is no indication that the victim tried to pull his weapon in any way. Maybe? But there is nothing yet that I've seen (and I don't want to see this again) that he did.

And even after he was shot, lying on the ground, he's shot 3 more time.
January 24, 2026 at 5:08 PM
@governorwalz.mn.gov has to do something. Today. Not later. Today. Declare that ICE must vacate MN. Call up the MN NG. SOMETHING.

If you got better ideas, say it. But FFS we can't do this forever. This must change, immediately.

2 citizens murdered.

That's 2 citizens too many.

Fuck ICE.

we actually need to band together and let the dems know we will never donate another cent or vote for the party again if a single member of the party votes to give a single cent to ice ever again

First, do not watch the video if for any reason you don't want to. It's not worth it.

Second, to @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, @schumer.senate.gov, @governorwalz.mn.gov, @keithellison.bsky.social and others....WE. HAVE. TO. STOP. ICE.

Not in 2 years. Not in 6 months. Now.

I should create a language called TypoScript - a scripting language that relies on typos in the code to work correctly.
