ICE immediately violated the order of the judge to not use even non-lethal force against peaceful protesters in Minneapolis.
We The People are the ONLY law enforcement.

“That’s slavery.”
Civil Rights lawyer @oliverma2026.bsky.social (running for CA Lt. Gov.) reminds us ICE detainees work in for-profit prisons for $1/day just to pay for phone calls to their families.
Cruelty is big business.
P.S. @CoreCivic’s new CEO’s last name is “Swindle” — beyond parody

None of what's happening right now is the fault of people who refused to vote for Kamala Harris. That campaign had multiple opportunities to vow an end to the genocide in Gaza. The party refused ready & willing Palestinian lawmaker from speaking at the DNC. They promised atrocity. This isn't on you.

I’m seeing posts from people (outside of MN) about how US citizens should carry their passports.
And let me say that *inside* MN, we are calmly responding to requests with: “No, I don’t have to show you any documentation.”
Because that’s how you protect everyone, regardless of immigration status.

Elections are NOT put on hold by the insurrection act, or martial law. During the Civil War, elections continued where they could. Simply invoking these powers does NOT halt elections. That is a misunderstood belief not rooted in the language of the law.

To the people who argue that elections cannot be stopped, I ask who will stop Trump if he decides to simply ignore the results or he institutes Martial Law? SCOTUS? The DOJ? The FBI? Congress? There is no mechanism, no law, left to keep Trump from doing what he want's. Except us.

A lot of people are wigging out on lardass' bluster about midterm elections.
Per the Constitution, the federal government has no authority over elections.
States certify their own elections.
Mail-in voting still exists.
Breathe.

Your regular reminder that there is no legal path from martial law to suspending elections in this country.
That doesn't mean there is no path. It just means that we need to reject the framing that the federal government has any legal authority to cease elections.

I’ve started using the term “ethnic cleansing campaign” to describe the ICE occupation here in Minnesota. This is deliberate because the reality on the ground is that, at a given moment, any non-white person can be kidnapped by masked federal paramilitaries regardless of their constitutional rights.

States run elections. Not the president. If he tries cancelling them, we ignore him. If the Supreme Court approves cancelling them, we abolish the Supreme Court.
