“They murdered our child. People need to be held responsible when they murder people in this country."
 
Alex Pretti's family is right, we need accountability for him & every victim of Trump's lawless ICE operation.
 
That Alex’s family still has no answers is absolutely shameful.

The Senate took a reckless action. This hurts.

We’re angry. Not done.

Melissa Hortman was known for reaching across the aisle in the MN House. Mike Lee (R UT) said she deserved to be assassinated by a wannabe SA dude. There is no amount of nice that will save you or your neighbors from fascist violence. Do not be nice.
I'm not going to quote post because I don't want to dog pile.

But when people say, "don't heckle the staff," this isn't 2010.

We're not talking about normal people choosing normal govt staffing jobs.

This is 2026 where we're kidnapping foreign officials and building concentration camps.

Upwards of 206 U.S. citizens have been hauled off the streets into vehicles by masked federal agents conducting Operation Metro Surge over the past three months in Minnesota.

One of those citizens beat and held in jail shared their story with UR while urging people not to normalize ICE’s presence.

When an immigration agent shot a man in the leg last month in Minnesota, the Trump administration rushed to sell a version of events that demonized the wounded man. It was the latest instance of the U.S. government providing an account of a shooting that later proved questionable or outright wrong.
How ICE Failed to Justify the Shooting of Julio Sosa-Celis in Minneapolis
The collapse of the Trump administration’s version of events in the case was only the most recent instance in which officials gave an account of a shooting that was later contradicted.

Could have used this opinion about 70 days ago. Hope to see this applied everywhere
Incredibly powerful opinion chronicling the awfulness in Whipple and the ways it interfered with the right to counsel.

One key part of the ruling (that ICE will likely appeal ASAP); Judge Brasel bars ICE from transferring anyone out of Minnesota within 72 hours of arrest.

Another hobby for the elites when they aren't partying with Epstein, and another list of people that need to be exposed and sent to prison. The new documentary "Sarajevo Safar"i is out now.
Insight into how truly awful people can be...

Wealthy “sniper tourists” allegedly paid upwards of $90,000 to shoot people during “human safari” trips to Sarajevo, with an extra fee for children, according to claims being probed by Italian prosecutors.

Is it true? Maybe.

There was an abduction in front of my apartment this morning. Afterwards, a Hennepin County Sheriff car drove by. Around 10-15 of us screamed at them for help, seeking assistance with the abandoned, window-smashed car. Some ran after them. They continued driving. 😑

In theatre? IN THEATRE???? Are you fucking kidding me!

If you had any doubts about this being an occupation by a hostile force this should remove them
Q: Can you be specific about how many ICE and CBP agents are currently operating in the state?

HOMAN: 3,000. There's been some rotations. They've been in theater a long time. Day after day, can't eat in restaurants, people spin on you, blowing whistles at you. But my main focus now is draw down

The best example of this was last week when Greg Bovino spent an entire rolling between Minneapolis gas stations in a massive convoy, his entourage beating up and tear gassing countless people, posing against the crowds… and then it was all so they could complain we wouldn’t let them use a restroom

All of this is fucking senseless. Minnesota did not have an immigration problem. Trump sent his Nazi thugs here because he's racist against Somali people and to own libs like Tim Walz. Now two Minnesotans are dead and Minneapolis is on the verge of going up in flames. None. Of. This. Was. Necessary.

All those people downtown yesterday, no ICE involvement, and not one incident. ICE shows up in a neighborhood and now another Minnesotan is dead. It's pretty obvious who the violent outside agitators are.
