Hi, Fourth Amendment violation!
And "being 'foreign' or brown" is not sufficient probable cause, regardless of how the Supreme Court might want to rewrite the 14th Amendment.
Looking forward to the #ACLU tearing into these offenders.

Just a reminder that ICE took funding from the COAST GUARD IN HURRICANE SEASON to give Noem two luxury planes. In that light, its funds have clearly been misspent, and it's not "anti-police" to not fund an enforcement overspending on operations consistently poorly coordinated and producing lawsuits.
To quote one source:
“They’re terrified of being labeled anti–law enforcement. They want this to go away so they can talk about the cost of living more. Problem is, it’s not going away.”

'Why aren't they in the streets' is answered almost every day in my small town by people in the streets! Rather than asking 'why aren't they in the streets' it's worth asking 'why isn't your media showing them in the streets' and 'who is served by downplaying resistane in its myriad forms.'
The idea that there are no protests in the US and no one is standing up to Trump is proving incredibly hard to kill over here in Germany. It’s become dogma, utterly detached from empirical reality.
I wonder if the people who keep talking like that understand they’re perpetuating regime propaganda.

The attempted censure of a white male broadcaster & the shooting death of a white female in her vehicle reiterate that White Supremacy requires the eradication of SUCCESSFUL white people as well to sell the idea that white people can't succeed in a diverse context. Supremacy KILLS.

Every day some story breaks me some. Today it’s the guy who approached parents at a school patrol, told them he was with Indivisible, and asked about how the patrol system works. The parents gave vague answers, followed him back to his car — and of course it was ICE.

Additional tips:
-Face masks are healthy AND can be warm!
-Cold air can irritate the throat w/ heavy breathing or shouting, but signs, whistles, clapping, & drumming can still be loud & proud!

For all the needless deployment of the National Guard in the past year, it'd be interesting if MN's governor offered their escort to ICE units so long as those units could present THE REQUISITE WARRANTS for these actions. We suspect ICE would turn down this offer for some reason... 🤔

A video of ICE agents conducting door-to-door searches today in Minneapolis
The homeowner requests a warrant repeatedly, is told they don't require one, then is told they're getting it, then the agents storm in anyway
They also point a taser at her to try and disrupt filming

ICE is an illegal paramilitary bolstered by a president invested in political intimidation in response to and in violation of explicit limitations on US military actions on US soil. The siphoning of funds & careless arming & deployment are grounds for impeachment.

Baffled by the choice of timing regarding the US assault on Venezuela... until we remembered what day tomorrow is. A president should be impeached if he feels a need to assault other country leaders or bomb other nations to avoid being held responsible for his own bad behavior.

With "I" word in the air again, we would argue such actions are his go-to distraction from being held culpable in office. Thus, with these repeated offenses, every reason to limit his powers at this time. Saying "our leadership threw a tantrum" is better than accidentally going to war.
Further context for current events and parallels of 2020: Let's not forget that 45 engaged in similar spontaneous aggression just days before his FIRST impeachment trial:

Too many politicians sell the lie of #refugees as enterprising squatters rather than people pushed from their homes in the worst of circumstances. If a sanctuary govt cannot be of assistance on the ground, then the least they can provide is a stable place for people to regroup & reclaim their lives.
