Not here, not there. Salt the ice, drain the water.
I don’t want ICE in my community.

I don’t want strange masked men taking my neighbors.

I don’t want strange masked men lighting fires in my city.

I want the world to see what’s happening in my community.

I want Minneapolis to be left alone and not made into a war zone.

We need to talk about the rise of "smol bean fascism" where you have all the guns and the immunity but the really scary people are the ones with whistles and phone cameras and they're giving you generational trauma and ptsd by filming you killing people for no reason

“Everyone should be allowed to carry a gun for their safety but the government can murder you in the street if you have a gun” is an incredible endpoint for the conservative moment

Alex Pretti was not a domestic terrorist. He was an ICU nurse who's last act on earth was linking arms with a woman to defend her from physical assault by federal fascists.

I think centristy types have more issue with the word "abolish" than they do with the concept of abolishing ICE. I don't think the centrist liberal wishes to abolish

Kyle's tendency to make gay jokes or pejorative snipes at the expense of a gay sex act happens a little too often for my comfort with him as a straight ally.

I would like to see less of it.
is Andrew Tate not like famously an accused sex trafficker and rapist

🔥 this is the kind of fighting spirit we need from our representatives. Leadership, take note or make way.
I have the utmost respect for Senator Kaine and Senator Warner but we do not need “coaching” on redistricting coming from a cuck chair in the corner. How about you all stay focused on the fascist in the White House and let us handle redistricting in Virginia. 10-1

Republicans aren't going to be a significant factor in Virginia politics for a long time. What's the phrase the regime is so fond of? FAFO

🚨WHOA. The El Paso Medical Examiner says it will rule the death of a 55-year-old Cuban man at ICE's "Camp East Montana" tent camp as a homicide.

He was allegedly choked to death by a guard during a "struggle" after he refused to enter a housing unit without his medications.

Raccoon worried about things that haven’t happened yet because he knows they will happen as soon as he stops thinking about them.

In America you drop your kid off at school, get your brains blown out on the ride home, then the Vice President drops everything for a week to call you a terrorist, to slander your family, to protect the circumstances that led to your death so they can do it again. It is government by Alex Jones.

“We had whistles. They had guns.”

“We honor her memory by living her values: rejecting hate and choosing compassion, turning away from fear and pursuing peace, refusing division and knowing we must come together to build a world where we all come home safe to the people we love.”
Wife of Minneapolis woman killed by ICE speaks out for the first time
“We had whistles. They had guns,” Becca Good said about the shooting.
