First, they lied about what we saw on video when ICE killed Renee Good.
Now, they're politicizing the investigation by freezing out Minnesota authorities, so the full truth may never see the light of day.
They are breaking our country. We must continue demanding accountability.

dude had a trauma response and killed a person — pretty sure that doesn’t acquit you of murder morally but legally maybe a lesser charge.
We have a name!
Apparently the murderer’s name is Jonathan Ross. Outed by Star Tribune!

Senate advances measure to restrict Trump's power to use military force in Venezuela
Democratic Sen. Tim Kaine, who led the bipartisan resolution, said that Trump's actions in Venezuela are "clearly illegal" because he did not seek congressional approval.

Q: After you told ICE to get the F out, Republicans are criticizing you for escalating tensions
FREY: I'm sorry if I offered their Disney princess ears, but if we're talking about what's inflammatory, on one hand you got someone who dropped an F bomb & on other you have someone who killed someone

Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.
McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.
Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay.

ICE will arrest anyone—even a 16-year-old who just wants to get back to class.
Joel Camas may be the first unaccompanied minor detained by Trump this term.

Standing in solidarity with Starbucks Workers United! No red cup, no starbucks until they agree on a contract.
As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.
Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

An arrest of a person due entirely to the person having dark skin color is now known across the country as a "Kavanaugh stop," based on Justice Kavanaugh's justification of the practice. slate.com/news-and-pol...
There’s a New Lawsuit Against “Kavanaugh Stops.” It’s Absolutely Devastating.
These detentions, far from the “brief” inconvenience the justice described, are often lengthy, violent, and dangerous.
