Trump highlighted deeply emotional stories of pain and stories of triumph. The question isn’t whether those stories matter; they absolutely do. The question is whether they were used to illuminate policy solutions or to create an emotional backdrop that bolsters his weakening political standing.

Since July, I've tracked at least 2,300 cases in which federal judges have ruled ICE has illegally detained people without bond or due process.
This is one that stands out:

Wow — REPUBLICAN Chris Madel drops his bid for governor of Minnesota, saying ICE has gone too far and he can’t support Trump’s “retribution on the citizens of our state”

The side of an all powerful federal govt that can kill, injury, menace, & kidnap its citizens off the streets? Or on the side of a nurse at the VA hospital who died bearing witness to such govt?"

pretty wild statement re: Republican Chris Madel drop from race for MN governor:
"Saying he cannot support the national GOP's 'stated retribution on citizens of our state, nor can I count myself a member of a party that would do so."
It’s simply immoral, racist to the core to target folks based on skin color and we should state the obvious: this is truly unAmerican.

Shame on this administration.
Their latest attempt to dismantle the Dept of Education—during American Education Week—is illegal and immoral. Not only do they want to starve and steal from our students—they want to rob them of their futures.
Anyone who claims to care about children should be livid.

It is with a heavy heart that we have to post anything of this sort, but this is the climate we live in. Mint City Collective stands against the unlawful detainment, harassment, profiling, and the further unjust treatment by ICE and CBP in our beloved city of Charlotte and throughout North Carolina. The only thing that these actions do in and for our community is instill fear. Charlotte will stand strong and be brave against this form of adversity and attacks on our community. Our leadership stands in solidarity with our immigrant members and community. We want to share resources to help anyone in need of assistance or guidance. Importantly we hope you will share any and all information of actions happening where you are. If you are safe, take video, record names, note locations. Stand up for your neighbors. Charlotte was historically dubbed a Hornets Nest of Rebellion, the city has a history of standing up against injustices the citizens endured. Here in 2025 we will do the same as our regions founders did in 1780 against Cornwallis. We are proud of our city, happy to live where everyone embraces people of all walks of life and we will protect our neighbors as they would us. We are Charlotte. Stay Strong. Stay Vigilant. Love your neighbors. Stand up against injustice.
The largest supporters group for Charlotte FC has issued a statement regarding ICE and CBP being mobilized in the area.
