Again the world is waking up to horrific news of a killing at the hands of Donald Trump’s untrained federal agents.

Enough was enough before a federal agent shot and killed Renee Nicole Good. 50,000+ Minnesotans marched yesterday to demand this violence ends immediately.

Trump's masked goon squad just killed again in Minneapolis. This must stop NOW.

Tell Congress to defund ICE here: https://bit.ly/45xxduq

From the PublicFreakout community on Reddit: Another angle of the Minneapolis shooting, taken from the perspective of the lady with te pink jacket. Explore this post and more from the PublicFreakout community

I see Alex Pretti directing traffic, try to help a woman who was pushed, he got pepper sprayed in the face* and then summarily executed by ICE. What the fuck (huge content warning, this is very graphic)

I’m horrified and heartbroken by last night’s targeted shootings against legislators and I’m grateful to the state and local law enforcement working tirelessly to keep communities safe.

We can never allow political violence to be normalized.

Listen to Secretary Pete. And remember, these are our funds. These are our courts. And these are our streets.

As governor of Illinois, I’ve made it my mission to make our state the best to call home including for our LGBTQ+ community.

No matter who you are or who you love, everyone deserves dignity and equality.

Hate has no home here.

I’m calling for Chair Crapo and Chair Scott to haul in the Treasury Secretary to answer for Musk's seizure of Americans' personal financial information.

We have an oversight responsibility here that should NOT be partisan.

The Trump administration’s push to dismantle the Education Department would have serious consequences for students, families, and schools. Public education is vital to our economy and democracyβ€”we should be strengthening it, not diminishing it.

We’re lowering costs for middle class families, which is why we were just ranked the second-best state to raise a family.

The history of Illinois has always been shaped by Black Illinoisans.

It's why in 1865, we led the nation on this day as the first state to ratify the 13th Amendment.

And now, we're forging a path for the future that recognizes our past and builds a better world for all.

Yes. While there are absolutely things Democrats can and must do to slow, obstruct, etc, GOP hold both House and Senate majorities, severely limiting our options.

Johnson and Thune are handing over the own keys and relinquishing their own power. Even for the cynics this should be a shock.

Trump’s tariffs are a tax increase for Minnesota families, plain and simple.

While Trump raises prices, I’m proposing the first sales tax rate cut in our state’s history to help Minnesotans weather the storm.

Instead of lowering costs, Trump’s tariffs will raise prices for Americans everywhere, from the gas station to the grocery store.

They do not want immigrants. OK, February 3, will be a day partially without immigrants, their family, or friends. Don't purchase anything and, if possible, do not work.

When I was a teacher, my students and I always took time this month to honor the generations of Black Americans who fought against injustice to achieve equal rights.

May we all reflect on our past as we continue working to build a society that lives up to its democratic ideals.

Please do not assume that because an executive order will probably be blocked, harm won’t be done.

Harm is coming out of just the RHETORIC spread by the Trump administration. The base is riled. Entire groups of people are dehumanized.

Today, Donald Trump tried to cut off funding for law enforcement, schools, health care, and child care providers.

That’s money that Minnesotans rely on to keep our kids and our communities safe.

Trump talks incessantly about how our broken immigration system is letting criminals pour into our country, but that's ironically what he has done with his blanket pardon of 1500 insurrectionists - many of them were in prison for their violent assaults on January 6th.
