ICE boxes in a legal observer and draw their guns. They arrested her, but the local police chief later managed to get her released.

The US federal government is hiding away a man who executed, essentially at their behest, a US citizen in broad daylight. Think about that, and stop wondering if this is indeed fascism.

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.

Oh admire her courage for speaking out.
She apologizes for saying “that word” (fuck) so many times.
She didn’t say it enough.

“I watched him die… then I watched them maneuver his body like a rag doll— only to discover it was because they wanted to count the bullet wounds and see how many they ‘got’, like he was a deer.”

Ian Austin, an Army veteran, was arrested for protesting ICE in Minneapolis. But he’s continued protesting. Senior reporter @julialurie.bsky.social spoke to him.
“When they say, ‘Why would you be out here?’ How the fuck could I not be out here?” he says. “My nation is under attack."

NEW: Minnesota BCA was denied access to the crime scene. They got a WARRANT and DHS STILL BLOCKED THEM. So DHS doesn’t need a warrant to enter your house, but an actual warrant to enter the crime scene is denied?

ANOTHER ANGLE. This man was NOT brandishing a firearm. He was holding his phone. He then put his body between ICE thugs and woman. He was then sprayed with a chemical agent, tackled, disarmed, and executed. Plain as day. DO NOT let them tell you otherwise.

they're executing moms and nurses in the street. they're using preschoolers as bait. they're stealing people's dads and grandmas and children. they're tear gassing babies. they're staking out schools. there is no remedy but abolition. any proposal that doesn't start there is an act of violence.

Do we need to inform ICE and the Trump administration that the world was still tracking down Nazis as late as 2024, 80 years after their crimes. Thats the rest of their lives. Generations will dedicate time to track them down & bring them to justice, wherever in the world they flee to.

Their behavior is utterly inhumane.
In Morristown, New Jersey, ICE abandoned a six-year-old girl on the side of a busy road after abducting and disappearing her father on January 18, 2026.

The US is being terrorized by a domestic terror organization called ICE.
They are going door-to-door. They are stealing and kidnapping people. They have killed over 30 people so far.
We are being terrorized by the US government and what you have to do first is acknowledge it.

The so-called party of free speech and small government is happily supporting armed, masked government agents conducting “show me your papers” stops and brutalizing U.S. citizens.
Their real “party values” are terrorizing communities of color and anyone else who speaks out.
Remember this.
