Any one of us could be in the next apartment building that ICE raids in the middle of the night.
Any one of us could be the next to be brutalized by ICE for speaking out.

ICE must be abolished. It has become a lawless, rogue agency. Federal law enforcement agencies must follow the law, if they're going to have any credibility enforcing it.
We are demanding justice for Renee Good and the prosecution of ICE agent Jonathan Ross for her murder.

Just so people outside of MN know - a lot of the US citizens getting “arrested” by ICE never get processed at Whipple. They are roughed up during the arrest and then often dropped off miles from where they were picked up. It means we don’t know the true scale of what ICE is doing based on ICE stats

Today, it’s not your vote that determines whether the government brutalizes you or sends officers to your door. It’s your neighbors’ vote.
If you’re ok with this happening to Minnesotans, don’t get comfortable. You won’t be exempt for long.
In the end, a lawless administration comes for everyone.
