Before you think about flip flopping on ICE look at the pain in these parents face. They lost their son, a son by most reports was a wonderful man, the kind of man we need more off.
He was executed while he was completely incapacitated.

His blood is on Donald Trumps hands.

Bondiโ€™s โ€˜blackmailโ€™ letter to Minnesota deepens concerns over DOJโ€™s voter roll motives, federal judge says The judge reiterated the DOJ's case against Oregon will be dismissed entirely.

๐ŸšจBREAKING: A federal judge in Oregon said Attorney General Pam Bondiโ€™s recent letter to Minnesota reinforced unease about how the Justice Department is wielding its authority in its nationwide push for state voter rolls, suggesting the administrationโ€™s campaign may be driven by improper motives.

We are being told by the Trump administration that an intensive care nurse, Alex Jeffrey Pretti, and a mom of three, Renee Nicole Good, both gunned down by ICE agents in Minnesota, are a new breed of homegrown terrorist...

Susan Collins suffers from a moral deficit. Peaceful citizens have been murdered. Ice is a threat to all who dissent.

Needless to say that Renee Good and Alex Pretti will go down as heroes here in Minnesota and nationally, their names synonymous with sacrifice and caring for vulnerable neighbors even at the risk of your own life. And hopefully no more innocent lives are lost.

Talarico is right. Stop them now, before they come to your city to do the same.

How many years have we been watching gun nuts open carry semiautomatic rifles into, like, a Dunkin' Donuts as a statement against government control? And they're now silent over a citizen being murdered by federal agents and then blamed for legally carrying a firearm?

ICE murdered Renรฉe 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.

His replacement is no prize either, unfortunately. Bovinoโ€™s removal changes the face of enforcement, not the policy behind it.

โ€œI would just give a pro tip to the attorney general. Thereโ€™s 2 million documents in the Epstein files weโ€™re still waiting on. Go ahead and work on those"

I agree โ€” itโ€™s extremely dangerous for people of color. But even white citizens are not immune, as we saw with Renee Good being killed by an ICE agent while trying to help those being targeted.

In my fifty years in politics, I donโ€™t think Iโ€™ve seen anything like this before.

I haven't always agreed with Jerome Powell, but what Donald Trump is doing is out of the dictatorโ€™s playbook.

Kudos to Powell for speaking out.

ICE has essentially been granted permission to kill without the fear of facing consequences.

After you shake your head and refocus your eyes...read that again.
