Bovino was forced out of Minnesota because the American people stood firm. Tens of thousands of people took to the streets in below-freezing temps to peacefully defend their neighbors & freedoms.
We’ll keep fighting. No more deaths at the hands of rogue DHS agents.

This mid-afternoon Alex Pretti vigil at the Portland VA was not heavily promoted. But the crowd probably stretches a quarter mile or more. Americans are galvanized and grieving.

Trump's DHS has shot 12 people during immigration enforcement operations since September. Here's what to know.
Federal agents have shot three people in Minneapolis in recent weeks, killing two U.S. citizens, Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Videos contradict the Trump administration's account of their deaths.

I just read an article about "dumb phones." There is a class of people who have decided that smartphones are evil, so they've returned to phone technology circa 1990. No apps. No big screen or QWERTY keyboard. Just a phone (and txt).

My guess is midterms will happen but there’s gonna be a lot of voter suppression. Targeted terrorizing of voters for sure. Lotta brown people staying home. There’s gonna be the appearance of elections but it’s gonna be even more of a sham than it usually is. That’s my assessment.

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased.
Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power.
Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable.
But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless.
Remember this.
