I don’t think people quite understand that the occupation by ICE in the Twin Cities has more or less erased non-white people from public life. They cannot safely exist in any space accessible to the public and moving between private places leaves folks vulnerable to kidnapping by armed masked goons.

NEW: "Walsh called Good a 'lesbian agitator.' Ian Miles Cheong ... called her a 'rug munching leftist.' On Fox News, Jesse Watters noted that Good 'leaves behind a lesbian partner' and highlighted that she had 'pronouns in her bio.'" @parkermolloy.com reports: www.wired.com/story/the-ca...
The Campaign to Destroy Renee Good
After an ICE agent shot and killed the Minneapolis mother, conservative media launched an all-out attack on her reputation. Her identity as a queer woman was central to it.

Two white friends tail me home if it's outside the hours when people are out and about. I'm damn near third generation Minnesotan. It's not just "you're a citizen you'll be fine." I'm a black woman alone. Who knows what they will do.

Will vote to increase and defend the indiscriminate bombing and mass starvation of Palestinians but draws the line at federal agents behaving like the IDF 🤔
I will not vote to fund DHS & ICE while they are putting Americans in danger, recklessly violating laws and decency, and refusing to be held accountable for or allow any oversight of their actions.

Congress must provide checks and balances to an Administration out of control.

They’re gonna kill you, let you watch, and then ask you what you’re talking about. The fact that “they” could be Dem or MAGA is the whole game.

Also demending "more training" because of a murder from an officer who was a trainer 😡

It's a slap in the face for all of us, but especially for the many victims of ICE violence

We've let the party become so filled with rules obsessives (whose strongest conviction is that rules are good without much mind to what they mean or who they should protect) that the only weapons our opposition can possibly imagine using are investigations, citations, and slaps on the wrist

It's particularly galling to call for ICE to wear body cams when Renee Good's murder literally recorded the whole thing on his phone. He was so confident in his impunity as part of that organization that he recorded and allowed for the release of footage of him shooting a woman at point blank.

It's because of who ultimately controls the footage. Police can release body cam footage when it:
1. exhonorates them
2. Implicates others in a crime

Any footage that doesn't serve one of those two goals is magically lost when anyone goes looking for it. They also use the footage to track people.

I wrote a quick blog post in 2014 titled "police reforms you should always oppose." It went viral and became the basis of a chart created by Critical Resistance to evaluate abolitionist steps. Money for training and body cams were the first two on my list.

There is no recalibrated or sanitized way to conduct the war that Trump and Stephen Miller are waging on American cities right now. That’s because it’s a campaign of deliberate terror.
The policy *is* the terror, and the terror *is* the policy.

Cannot stress enough that you can just do stuff. You don't need permission. You can just do stuff because it needs to be done by someone.

Schumer and Jeffries have already talked themselves out of any opposition to ICE funding because Reagan will scream they're soft on crime.

"Sorry America, we shut down the government because Dems won't let us give billons more to a secret police force you hate that is killing your neighbors." Force Republicans to make that argument. Let them try. It's called politics - Dem leadership should try it some time.

Yes, voting against ICE funding is the morally right thing to do. But you can be the most heartless political consultant bastard out there - cutting ICE is still the smart play. That Schumer/Jeffries are silent right now is political malpractice (and morally reprehensible, if you care about that).
New poll from Navigator also with an incredible result; the largest drop in support for ICE since June was actually among *Republicans*, 25% of which now say they have an unfavorable opinion of the agency.
