Any concession will be viewed as weakness and Trumpites will double down.
Absolutely reprehensible that AG Bondi is offering ICE stand down in exchange for access to voting rolls. Outrageous and disgusting. It shows ICE is in Minneapolis is not for law enforcement purposes. Instead it’s a way to stir up shit in blue states and extort them.
In the wake of another fatal shooting in Minneapolis.
AG Pam Bondi sends Gov. Walz a letter today making several asks including:
"Allow DOJ Civil Rights division access to state voter rolls"

The federal government is executing American citizens in the middle of the street for exercising their constitutional right to freedom of speech.
This is tyranny. No free people can accept this kind of government. We need to bring an end to the Trump regime.

Do we know what hotel chains are hosting ICE & CBP in Minneapolis?
It's wild that business schools don't teach "There are still people who don't buy Volkswagons bc of World War 2."
But there's no time like the present for a refresher, I guess.

Since July, I've tracked at least 2,300 cases in which federal judges have ruled ICE has illegally detained people without bond or due process.

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.

Reminder: after Charles Exum shot Marimar Martinez in October, DHS tried to claim it was because she was armed.
The gun never left her purse and she had a concealed carry license for it.

This is apparently on X. I have a few concerns: 1) why is DHS sending photos of (alleged) evidence that should be in a secure chain of custody that is now lying on a car seat??? and 2) being armed does not on its own justify the use of deadly force — there has to be evidence he was trying to use it
