205. Chief Judge Schiltz and the Department of Justice
Every federal judge (and justice) should read the two letters from Chief Judge Patrick Schiltz in the church protest case—and what they tell us about the Department of Justice's litigation behavior.

Congressional Republicans gave Trump a slush fund for ICE and CBP in the "Big Beautiful Bill." Tens of billions of dollars that is still usable even during a shutdown.

Democrats must make rescinding that money the price of any future govt funding, as Republicans did with IRS money from the IRA.

Remember, per testimony before the J6 committee, Trump told officials to remove screening equipment at the Ellipse rally meant to prevent people from bringing in firearms.
In a new interview with WSJ, Trump is, again, blaming Pretti for carrying a gun, not federal agents for for firing theirs.

“I don’t like it when somebody goes into a protest and he’s got a very powerful, fully loaded gun…. That doesn’t play good.”

Where does ICE think they're deporting tribe members back to?

They are the Native Americans.

ICE is probably all immigrants.
ICE has kidnapped another Indigenous person in Minneapolis. This is the fifth member of the Očhéthi Šakówinnto be taken this month.

I have nightmares about ICE every night too. We're going to fight off the nightmares together
Put my nine year old son to bed tonight. We’ve tried to protect him but he knows what ICE is.

He had a nightmare last night that ICE was going to shoot him. As I put him to bed he told me he doesn’t want another nightmare but has also had panic attics thinking of his dark skinned friends. #Empathy
The idea that we're drawing our resolve from each other, that we are willing to put ourselves in harm's way to protect our neighbors, even ones we do not know, it's unthinkable to them.

They don't understand that real strength doesn't come from HURTING PEOPLE but from PROTECTING THEM.

During the Soviet era, at times of govt instability, the state broadcaster would typically preempt scheduled broadcasts by airing performances of Swan Lake
And, tonight, the network's flagship news program -- 60 Minutes -- ran a clip show of old celeb interviews to "celebrate the movies" rather than put together an episode focused on what's going on in Minnesota.
The person who publishes the Free Press — where the words “Minneapolis” and “Minnesota” never appear tonight — also runs CBS News.

Can’t help but notice a lot of social media reports of Tik Tok censoring anti-ICE content in its first weekend under Trump-directed US management, and no mainstream news coverage thus far.

Minnesota lawyers: this doc is intended to serve as a living, iterated-on clearinghouse for volunteer opportunities. It's very much a work in progress, but I'll be updating it as resources develop.

Alex Pretti was an ICU nurse serving veterans. He died trying to protect protestors being assaulted. A group of anonymous & masked men fired chemicals into his face, beat him, disarmed him, and shot him in broad daylight in front of witnesses. Then his government smeared him & defended his murder.

Federal law enforcement agents shot and killed a man in Minneapolis on Jan. 24 according to local police officials. DHS told Fox News that the man was “armed with a gun”. A video of the shooting appears to show that a gun was taken from the man before the first shot was fired. x.com/BillMelugin_...

NEW: In sealed proceedings yesterday, DOJ put intense pressure on federal judges in Minnesota to authorize the arrest of Don Lemon and others — until they were brushed back by an appeals court last night.

But even more notable...

Minnesota's Chief Judge said:
1) DOJ was lying about Don Lemon protesting.
2) ICE's defiance of a number of orders (including regarding that 2-yo girl) was a bigger emergency than arresting the Church protestors.
3) DOJ could have gone to grand jury any of 3 days.

Two women trained as first responders were abducted by three ICE agents. One of the agents starts seizing. The other two don’t know what to do. The women jump into action and save the agent’s life, only to be re-handcuffed and processed.
