People worried for my safety asking earnestly if I think I want to move out of Minneapolis.

Hell no.

We stand our ground. Because it doesn’t stop with us. Infection spreads. You cannot run from it.

Called and left messages for both of my Dem Senators opposing any funding for ICE.

WTF is wrong with our Dem leadership?

Do they think voters will vote for them in the midterms after this? Because people are getting jaded. Apathy is coming if they won’t fight.

Just a reminder that these "federal agents" in Minneapolis are not law enforcement

They are Proud Boys, J6ers, 3%ers, and every other piece of slime from under a rock DHS could find to use weapons against the American people

Walz: "What's happening in MN defies belief. News reports simply don't do justice to the level of chaos & disruption & trauma the federal govt is raining down... This long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. Instead, it's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of MN"

Why do ICE agents carry guns?
Not one single report of them being shot at!!
Not one single story about apprehending anyone with a gun!!
Take the weapons away from the untrained, unrestrained, incompetent agents. Do it for public safety.

Yes please it would be an excellent start

Strange takes on Mayor Zamdani swearing his oath on the Qu’ran. It has nothing to do with church & state. The point of the oath is for the person swearing in to do so upon some text that is sacred TO THEM. Some Presidents swore in w/o any book. John Quincy Adams was sworn on a law book. His choice.

I'm glad to hear that Trump backed down from his initial threats to withhold federal funding for child care. Amazing what happens when you stand up to a bully.

Samuel Alito flew two flags used by insurrectionists.

Clarence Thomas' wife plotted to overturn the 2020 election.

Both justices refused to recuse themselves from SCOTUS cases related to the January 6th plot.

It's a stain on our nation that this has effectively been forgotten.

Based on the reporting, it seems there were Minneapolis police in the vicinity when this ICE agent killed her. How is it not standard operating procedure to take the shooter into custody?
Arrest the shooter, for chrissakes. It's murder. Arrest the shooter.

🚨NEW: Federal officers like ICE agents have been routinely prosecuted by states for violating state laws, up to and including murder, since the 1800s.
Minnesota has every ability to do this with today's killing of a motorist by an ICE agent.

This is the only correct position, and the inevitable response from knee-jerk centrist reactionaries of "it won't work" is not a valid objection. Every member of Congress has a duty to say that what Noem has been doing is not acceptable.
I am impeaching Secretary Kristi Noem, who is an incompetent leader and a disgrace to our democracy.

She wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area and has brought her reign of terror to Minneapolis. One of her rogue ICE agents shot and killed an innocent woman today. It must come to an end.
