So simply naming someone is doxxing, but taking photos and license plate numbers to create a database of the opposition for government stalking and harassment purposes is not?

Naming someone is not doxxing them, and moving them to another city to kill more is conspiracy against rights.

Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.

Raskin: "I think the people have Minnesota have shown us with their mass demonstration and general strike the direction that we may need to go in nationally in order to send the message that American society does not accept this authoritarian derailment of the US Constitution."

This lawless administration is now operating under the β€œwhat are you gonna do about it” doctrine. A John Roberts creation.

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara: "People have had enough. This is the third shooting in less than 3 weeks. The MPD went the entire year last year recovering about 900 guns from the street, arresting hundreds of violent offenders, and we didn't shoot anyone ... this is not sustainable."

Holy shit.

He was filming. He went over to help a lady that ICE shoved down. Agents engaged him.

His hands were on the pavement when he was shot.

He never had his hand on a weapon.

Cold blooded murder.

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.

White. Hot. Rage.

Live: Man shot and killed by federal agents in south Minneapolis this morning, police chief says A video appears to shows federal agents wrestling a man to the ground then shooting him.

The Star Tribune reports that federal agents "attempted to order local police from the scene" where a man was shot and killed by feds this morning, but Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara refused and "instructed his officers to preserve the scene."

Alex Jeffrey Pretti, an ICU nurse. πŸ˜’πŸ’”πŸ™ He spent his life helping people, and now our government is peddling lies in an attempt to make you believe them.

ICE agent asked why he's taking pictures of a legal observer's car, replies: "Cuz we have a nice little database and now you're considered a domestic terrorist. So have fun with that."

FYI: Dems in the senate can't defund ICE. ICE is funded by the Big Ugly Bill. Shutting down DHS on this vote wouldn't touch ICE, but it would shut down FEMA, TSA, Coast Guard, etc. Shutting down ICE requires taking back Congress in the midterms. Dismantling DHS requires the White House in 2028.

Nehls: I would like to quickly address the police officers from January 6th. And I can tell you that the fault does not lie with Donald Trump. It lies with the US capitol leadership team.

Brooklyn Park police chief Mark Bruley: "We're hearing people being stopped with no cause & being demanded to show paperwork to determine if they're here legally. We started hearing from our police officers the same complaints. Every one of these individuals is a person of color... it has to stop"

From Senator Chris McDaniel: β€œLately, some folks have taken to calling ICE β€œthe Gestapo.”  It sounds fierce.  It feels righteous.  But it isn’t true, and it isn’t harmless.

The Gestapo was a secret police force.  No warrants.  No courts.  No lawyers.  And no appeals.  People vanished in the night, not because they broke the law, but because the law no longer meant anything.  The knock on the door was the sentence.

ICE isn’t that.  Not even close.

ICE is a public agency enforcing laws passed by elected officials.  Its agents file reports.  They seek warrants.  They lose cases.  Judges stop them.  Lawyers challenge them.  Some detainees go home.  That’s not tyranny.  That’s bureaucracy, for better and worse.

You can hate immigration policy.  You can argue enforcement is too harsh, too sloppy, or too broad.  You can work to have the law changed if you wish.  That’s a republic doing what it’s supposed to do.  

But when you call ordinary law enforcement β€œthe Gestapo,” you cheapen real evil.  You turn history into a slogan and suffering into a metaphor.  And once every badge is tyranny, no tyranny is left to recognize.

In Mississippi, I was raised to believe words should earn their weight.  This one hasn't yet.  It throws around the language of dictatorship while living under a system where courts still rule, lawyers still argue, and the government still loses.

That difference matters.

Because the day enforcement becomes secret, unchecked, and answerable to no one, we won’t need to borrow names from history.  We’ll know exactly what we’re dealing with.

And we’ll wish we’d kept our words honest.”
