How ICE Already Knows Who Minneapolis Protesters Are

A Minnesota woman observing ICE agents in her car was cornered on one-way streets. An agent approached, called her by name—citing facial recognition. Days later, her Global Entry and TSA privileges were revoked, with no explanation.

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.

"The circle of government oppression, which started out by including immigrants and minorities, will be expanded to include regular people who take action to stop that oppression. The criminalization of protest...gets us much closer to real authoritarianism."

ICE’s theater of war Camo and hats for jungle combat do not make sense in American cities. But they are key to dressing for the war ICE has imagined.

Federal agents wearing jungle-warfare hats in Minneapolis. Blood type patches, despite little evidence that they would ever be needed. Camo, again in Minneapolis, where lush woodlands do not exist.

Welcome to ICE’s theater of war.

It's not quite the most pressing issue at the moment, but the American people absolutely have a right to know the names of the federal officials who shot and killed a man peacefully protesting, who was on his knees, prone in the street when they shot him in the back.

Man shot and killed by federal officers in Minnesota was an ICU nurse, his parents say The man who was shot and killed by a federal officer during an immigration operation has been identified as 37-year-old Alex Pretti, an intensive care unit nurse.

This is what President Trump meant when he said he wanted to go after “the enemy within.”

At every opportunity, he’s escalated violence against the people of Minnesota. Now, two American citizens have been killed by their own government as part of this operation. www.pbs.org/newshour/nat...
