While independent bookstores are giving out free whistles, hosting protest sign making events, and donating proceeds to mutual aid, Amazon is *checks notes* providing technology that assists ICE in their terrorizing of communities.

Independent bookstores deserve your support. Amazon does not.

Last spring, after ICE kidnapped a mother & 3 kids in Tom Homan's hometown, over 1,000 showed up to protest him - in a town of 1,400

He defended the kidnapping, "ICE is doing everything by the book"

Some media will pretend the corrupt fuck isn't so bad. He is

I hope y'all are watching Rachel Maddow. The EXECUTION of Alex Pretti was the last straw. By celebrating the ICE Nazis who MURDERED American citizens, the fascist authoritarian Trump regime has miscalculated badly.

Greg Bovino, America's shortest Nazi, is not being fired or even demoted.

He's just being moved around, like a predator priest.

Trump hires all these idiots bc
1)they won't tell him he's breaking the law, and
2) the idiots don't know they're also going to be the Fall Guys.
Leavitt throws Bovino under the bus: "Mr Bovino is a wonderful man and he's a great professional. He is very much going to continue CBP throughout and across the country. Mr Homan will be the main point of contact on the ground in Minneapolis"

His parents are legal asylum seekers with no criminal record.

Naming someone is not doxxing. They aren’t undercover. They aren’t intelligence agents overseas. This is outrageous - we are supposed to be a free Republic and these people want an authoritarian police state. Lawsuits should be filed & ranking Dems in Congress should act.

This was just me making this comparison yesterday, but today the Korean news is calling Minnesota "America's Gwangju" and have human rights lawyers explaining how America is now living through the dictatorship Korea once had.
The Chun regime that my wife fought against in the 80s did the exact same thing. They needed a "crisis" that "only they could solve" to hoard more ill-gotten power, so they chose one city (Gwangju), declared its inhabitants enemies, sent trucks full of soldiers to violently attack and kill them.

If it is fascism now it was fascism then but if you were wrong no need to pause to make a special effort to admit your error -- we don't have that much time now, please act right away, get organized, and then tell your followers what you are doing to stop fascism and what they too can do.

Some good news.
Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

Correct. They are hanging their hat (or trying to) on 18 U.S.C. 111 as justification for detaining and arresting people. Apart from requiring force, the statute states that the federal officer is engaged in official duties. So what was the official function that is supposedly being impeded?
Also they should ask exactly what "targeted operation" was (supposedly) going on. Who were they trying to detain, where was that person at the moment Pretti was killed, what was the role of these agents in that operation and how did Pretti "impede" it by filming them?

Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump.

Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.
