Trump regime ICE thugs have been spotted driving around Arizona attacking unarmed civilians at random with drive by pepper spray attacks. They are escalating their attacks on the public nationwide. #3E #GoodvsEvil

Pretty disappointed we haven't seen more of an effort to boycott the Olympics.

A lot of Dems are going to take Bovino and Noem being fired as the finish line, and it's very important to make it clear to them that it is a starting line

In my opinion, ban the U.S. from global sporting competition until Trump resigns and the Republican party is purged.

GIFT ARTICLE (no paywall). Masterpiece reporting here from Adam. He deserves awards for this.

Minnesota Proved MAGA Wrong
The pushback against ICE exposed a series of mistaken assumptions.

Statement from Senator John Fetterman
Ms. Good and Mr. Pretti should still be alive. My family grieves for theirs. The operation in Minneapolis should stand down and immediately end. It has become an ungovernable and dangerous urban theatre for civilians and law enforcement that is incompatible with the American spirit. As a very pro-immigration Democrat and Ranking Member of the Subcommittee on Border Management, I believe our nation deserves a secured border and that we should deport all criminal migrants. I also believe there needs to be a path to citizenship for those hardworking families who are here. I've also spent significant time hearing many different positions on the funding bills and maintain that I will never vote to shut our government down, especially our Defense Department. FETTERMAN Additionally, a vote to shut our government down will not defund ICE. DHS has $178B in funding from the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which I did not vote for. I reject the calls to defund or abolish ICE. I strongly disagree with many strategies and practices ICE deployed in Minneapolis, and believe that must change. I want a conversation on the DHS appropriations bill and support stripping it from the minibus. It is unlikely that will happen and our country will suffer another shutdown. We must find a way forward and I remain committed to being a voice of reason and common sense.

We really need an organized effort to get a general strike off the ground. I've seen a few different orgs trying to get one going, but it's hard to commit when all they want is your contact info.

one of the reasons everybody hates late arrivals from the right or even the center is they're all weepy little idiots who want to be coddled and forgiven and make it everybody else's problem. shut up, figure out how to help fix what you broke, and stop writing thinkpieces

The execution of Alex Pretti is playing so badly because you can look at his actions and life story - his last act was helping, boy scout, athlete, health care worker to veterans - and compare those to the men who killed him and know which you would want to be your son, brother, father, uncle.

Someone else on here said it better than I could, but these chuds just cannot wrap their sadistic, amoral little skull turds around concepts of mutual aid and empathy.

The people of Minnesota have executed one of the most impressive civil resistance campaigns I can remember:

- Organized a city wide general strike
- Maintained nonviolent discipline amidst violence
- Mobilized 10,000s in subzero temps to protest and watch ICE
- Flipped public opinion against ICE

It's nice to see that Alex Pretti's horrific murder has been enough to galvanize a lot of previously neutral-leaning influencers to finally say something.

The fascists and there enablers are finally on the back foot. Now is the time to push harder than ever. Keep calling your reps, keep posting your thoughts about ICE everywhere. The vibe shift against Trump cruelty is here.

From Phoenix to Minnesota, we’re standing together and saying it plainly: ICE must get out of our communities.

So inspired by everyone out here today refusing to back down against authoritarianism.
