Pay attention to the images of the soldiers in the crowd, smiling with the protesters.

They murdered protesters in the street the next day.

Those "dialog" cops aren't there for you.

Ian Austin, an Army veteran, was arrested for protesting ICE in Minneapolis. But heโ€™s continued protesting. Senior reporter @julialurie.bsky.social spoke to him.

โ€œWhen they say, โ€˜Why would you be out here?โ€™ How the fuck could I not be out here?โ€ he says. โ€œMy nation is under attack."

It basically changes nothing. They will continue to escalate. I suspect they're going to ramp things up in Ohio based on their propaganda.

ICE has never been about immigration enforcement.

It's a weapon used to brutalize Americans and stoke enough fear so that Trump can rig the elections and usher in dictatorship.

I am tired of the Keith Porter erasure. He was shot by an "off duty" ICE agent outside his home on New Year's Eve. Just because there aren't videos of his death circulating, it doesn't mean that his story deserves any less attention. There are countless others who don't get coverage.
