You have the right to ask to see the warrant

📌You have the right to refuse entry without a judicial warrant

📌You have the right to remain silent

Door-to-door enforcement without judicial oversight is not “law and order.”

What we’re watching isn’t normal politics. It’s an attempt to replace a constitutional system with a personalist system...where institutions serve one man, not the country.

"The idea, for the former ICE director, that Alex Pretti, this VA nurse who was brandishing a cell phone - even after he had six full-grown men on top of him - that the threat had to be eliminated by unloading his clip into him?"

Let's be clear. At this point, the FBI has no credibility. None.

A retired Minneapolis couple who had guns pointed at them by ICE in a church parking lot.

"They were obviously not trained at all. I've known many police officers in my life. These people were right off the streets."

"They had the professional demeanor of criminals."

More and more Americans are voicing their outrage at the tactics being deployed by federal agents in Minnesota. But it’s important to understand the broader implications of what this administration is doing, and the threat it poses to the basic freedoms of every American.

Masking is not about doxing. That is the excuse. They are wearing masks so people cannot identify agents who engage in abuses, civil rights violations, and crimes. You can’t report someone or hold them accountable in any way if you can’t identify them.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

I believe history will show the following: The masks are to conceal the fact that many of these masked ICE “agents” are pardoned Oath Keepers and Proud Boys.

I would prefer that “history,” in this case….is pretty damn short.

Ellison: "The Bondi letter reveals what this is all about. This is not about fraud and it's not even about immigration, and it's certainly not about law enforcement. It's about handing over documents of the state of Minnesota, private information, including voting information, to the federal govt."

Abolish ICE is not enough.

Stern words for Greg Bovino or Kristi Noem is not enough.

We need prosecutions and trials.

Anything short of this position fails to address the gravity of this moment.

@briantylercohen.bsky.social: Should ICE continue to exist in any form?

@rokhanna.bsky.social: No. And that should be the answer across the Democratic Party.

It is a rogue agency killing American citizens. Tear it down.

Pulling Bovino out of Minneapolis and replacing him with Tom Homan is like removing a rattlesnake from the bathroom and replacing it with a Cobra.

Clarence Thomas likens old rulings that protect our rights to trains driven by monkeys.
You are a blight on the legal profession, Clarence. Precedents obviously can be overturned, or Plessy v Ferguson would still be followed. But you know, or should know, that stare decisis enables a degree of stability in the law, vs changes w/ each administration.
