the feds saying theyll end their campaign of terror against an american city if their demands are met is the biggest domestic scandal of my lifetime

Way to go, Philadelphia! The city has introduced new legislation putting real limits on ICE activity. Federal agents will no longer be allowed to operate anonymously no masks, visible identification required, and arrests must be backed by warrants signed by a federal judge.

This giant ICE Army they are building this year is also likely to be at polling places during the midterms in heavily Democratic precincts with the excuse being that they are looking for “illegals trying to vote.”

A few suggestions @wcratcliff.bsky.social. I know which kind of snowflake yeast I’m most excited for.

@stevevladeck.bsky.social, professor at Georgetown University Law Center, says there should be a portal for individuals to upload video and photo evidence of ICE aggression to aid in future prosecution of federal officers.

This is complete bullshit, and it's a criminal administration's transparent effort to cover up a crime.

Ian Austin, an Army veteran, was arrested for protesting ICE in Minneapolis. But he’s continued protesting. Senior reporter @julialurie.bsky.social spoke to him.

“When they say, ‘Why would you be out here?’ How the fuck could I not be out here?” he says. “My nation is under attack."

Any doctor who can say this with a straight face should lose their license to practice medicine immediately

This isn't about "training issues." The murderer who executed Renee Good has been with ICE for 10 years, and according to DHS, the murderer who executed Alex Pretti has been there for 8 years.

These aren't "new recruits," or officers that can be "retrained." ICE can't be reformed. Abolish ICE.

to the extent that there is a “carrot” to trumpism it is the same carrot that slaveholders offered to lower class white men: “you can be an overseer”

It turns out that when the good guys do have guns they still get shot in the back by Federal thugs.

ICE murdered Renée Good in broad daylight. Less than 3 weeks later, they killed Alex Pretti, shooting him 10 times. Every day, we watch as people are ripped from their cars, their homes, their lives.

We can't allow ourselves to look away from this cruelty. Abolish ICE.

Has anyone commented that most of the images don't show up for them? Some do, but most don't. I just see text.

The Atlantic finally catching up with what some of us have been saying for *years*

5 Big Reasons Why Electricity Prices Are So High Right Now The average U.S. household is projected to spend nearly $1,000 this winter to heat its home.

Apparently our electricity bills are going through the roof and this is partly related to data centers that hog huge amounts of electricity to generate information. I, for one, feel hopping mad about this. The companies that are using the data centers should bear the cost.

Steph Curry on watching the protests from his hotel window: "In negative 10-degree weather. It was beautiful to see that turnout. That speaks to how important people felt to have their voice heard. In those elements and whatever streets outside our hotel, they were out, and it was amazing to watch."

Says it all perfectly.

I hope that Democrats realize what’s happening in Minnesota is also a dry run for what the regime has planned for the midterms.

Reporter: You received a letter from AG Pam Bondi making several demands….

Walz: I would just give a pro tip to the AG. There's 2 million documents in the Epstein files we're still waiting on. Go ahead and work on those

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

AOC: "How rich is it that she is saying showing up to the scene of a protest with a legally owned weapon should be grounds for a person's death, execution at the hands of the state, by the same party and administration that praises Kyle Rittenhouse."

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

A video of Alex Pretti reading out the final salute of an unnamed veteran he cared for until the end of his life in the ICU, posted to Facebook by his son.

Ed Markey • A @SenMarkey X.com These are not rogue agents. This is an all out assault on American life. ICE is a criminal organization that is entering homes without judicial warrants, detaining witnesses, and killing people. All at the direction of Trump. We must stop funding DHS. There is no other path forward.

I’m sorry for posting a screenshot from there, but he’s my senator, and this statement at least manages to be germane

The man killed by a US Border Patrol officer in Minneapolis was an ICU nurse, family says Family members say the man who was killed by a federal officer in Minneapolis was an intensive care nurse at a U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs hospital who cared deeply about people and was upset ...

“As of Saturday evening, the family said they had still not heard from anyone at a federal law enforcement agency about their son’s death.”

The line that "one day, everyone will have been against this" is very troubling. We must never let them forget the cruelty.

THEY’RE SO SILLY

I feel physically ill over this. I can't imagine what they are going through.
