This is at the very least a civil violation under 42 U.S.C. ยง 1983, unlawful entry, unlawful search, entry without a warrant (defective warrant), unlawful seizure, and excessive.
One could argue criminal conspiracy if the kidnapping occured as an inevitable consequence of racist policies.
In October, ICE grabbed Maher Tarabishi.
He was a 24/7 caregiver for his disabled son Wael.
At the time of Maherโs detention, disability advocates warned that taking away Waelโs caregiver put his life at risk.
Wael died on Friday at age 30.
ICE caused his death.
They didnโt get to say goodbye.

The brutality of these agents is clearly the result of joy found in cruelty and the misery of others. They are sadists, monsters who find solace for their own unhappiness in creating pain in others.

Weโre at the stage of fascism where people are being dragged out of their homes.

They condone this.
ICE just announced another death at a camp in El Paso.
2025 was the deadliest year on record for ICE detention.

I donโt think people quite understand that the occupation by ICE in the Twin Cities has more or less erased non-white people from public life. They cannot safely exist in any space accessible to the public and moving between private places leaves folks vulnerable to kidnapping by armed masked goons.

I need yโall to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.
British police have killed fewer people in the last 100 years than American police kill in an average month.
Policing in America is an ongoing tragedy.
