I will be blind for life. I have fractures in my skull that they can't fix. I can't sneeze or cough bc it's dangerous to. They pulled a piece of plastic the size of a nickel out of my eye. I had shards of metal, glass, and plastic behind my eye and in my skull. They said it was a miracle I survived.

This is where it is going. This is what Stephen Miller is pushing to Trump. The only reason it has not happened yet is that the violence is obviously coming from state actors. There is no insurrection to control. But we are one incident away from Trump sending in the military.

SHARE: There was a reporter who applied to ICE to investigate the allegations that their recruitment process is a joke, and she got in without them so much as Googling her. That tracks because we've got files that identify Joseph A. Teamer, who's got a criminal record. ICE hires criminals—shocker.

Take a second to really think about this: After one of its agents murdered an American citizen, the Trump-Vance administration is now straight up ignoring the judicial branch's order to let the legislative branch conduct basic oversight over said agents.
NEW: After a tense standoff with armed agents, Reps. Ilhan Omar, Angie Craig, and Kelly Morrison were blocked from entering the ICE HQ in Minnesota.

This is explicitly against a court ruling that officials must follow the law and let lawmakers conduct such oversight visits.

"Learned what?" she asks

It is deeply counter to the whole very basic concept of this nation that its citizens can be taxed and then have funding withheld punitively because the person exercising the power of the presidency decides on a whim to do so.
at some point we're gonna have to have a real conversation about why we're still paying federal taxes to a regime that isn't using them to help anyone, but instead is using them to brutalize us

Do you feel overwhelmed? Tired? Exhausted with the constant news cycle?

I want you to know: that's their goal.

They want you checked out. They want you burnt out. I get it. I feel it.

Take a break, but don't give up. When you give up, they win.

This is the exact sense of community Republicans only pretend to want because there are too many non-whites involved. They hate it. They fucking hate this joy and camaraderie.

yeah they’re just grabbing random people at bus stops there is absolutely no attempt to even give the pretense that this is about immigration anymore. it is absolutely just a military occupation
Not an exaggeration at all to say that the feeling in Minneapolis is that the entire metro area is being treated as occupied territory by federal agents. Impossible to overstate how overwhelmingly people here do not like it. This does not feel sustainable.
