oh no

So NOW can we have that conversation that the United States having the world's largest carceral state, the most (and most heavily armed) cops, the most prisoners, and the most cages, has never been about safety and always been about institutional racism and suppressing dissent?

Update: In the evidence preservation lawsuit, the current Civil Chief at the Minnesota U.S. Attorney's Office (who appears to be Ana Voss, based on the letter), refused to accept email service of the lawsuit last night and then refused to accept in-person service until Monday. Ridiculous behavior.

DHS has shot 12 people during immigration enforcement operations since September:

I'm not going to post screenshots for obvious reasons but I have been alerted that a bunch of the top posts in r/MassiveCock are anti-ICE now and anyone who defends ICE in comments is getting yelled down lol

All the anti-war and anti-occupation protestors were right. All the far leftists were right. All the “woke scolds” and your friend who’s “too woke” were right. They were somehow even more right than they may have realized at the time. But really, it was always obvious they were right.

Putin pioneered this. No opposition is legitimate. Regular, decent, “ordinary” people cannot possibly be against us because only we represent “the real people.” Tell-tale sign of authoritarianism.

i think this attitude — that all opposition is illegitimate and nothing we do can be questioned— is probably pervasive in the white house and helps explain why they keep making terrible political choices

cozied up 🍂

Rahm’s anti-left views are held by many center-left elites in media and politics. And he is pretending to run for president in 2028 (doubt he actually runs because he knows his odds are very low.) So interviewing him can be framed as “news” and he bluntly makes anti-left points centrists agree with.

The NRA is a gun rights organization the way the Ku Klux Klan is a speech rights organization.

From Whittier a few hrs ago—after shooting & killing an ICE responder in Minneapolis, 37 yr old Alex Pretti, DHS agents brutalized a crowd that gathered & flooded the area w/ tear gas. @andral404.bsky.social captured this moment against a building where a fed then pointed his rifle at someone.

NEW: Within minutes of Alex Pretti being killed by a federal immigration officer in Minneapolis on Saturday, the Trump administration, backed by right-wing influencers, launched a smear campaign against the victim, labelling him a ”terrorist” and a “lunatic.” @davidgilbert.bsky.social reports:

Abolish ICE is now the moderate minimum position, Prosecute ICE is where Dems should be at next.

Allowing ICE violence to go unchecked emboldens regular racists to act on their hatred in similar ways.

RAVEPOP VINYL TEST PRESSINGS ARE HERE!!

the third item of german nightly news (watched by about 30% of the population daily) is the ICE killing in minneapolis. Its big news in europe

Esther Ghey is facilitating the rewriting of history. The circumstances of Brianna’s death are being rewritten to obscure the fact that she was murdered for being trans. It is mentioned not once in this article. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Regime media

As we grieve for Alex Pretti and Renee Good in MN, please do not forget Victor Manuel Diaz, who died in ICE custody after being taken from here. And all others who have died in their custody.

Humans don't realize that if you like an animal enough to get multiple depictions of it permanently added to your skin you're already conflating the animal form with your self image and thus are already deep in the therianthropy soup

I think it's best for my mental health to stay the hell away from the internet today. But, now and forever, fuck ICE

This is, quite literally, our collective duty.

I'm slightly tipsy so I'm just gonna say if any of you fucks out there with disposable income are staying in hotels or still ordering door dash at this particular moment in time you better be tipping with $50 bills

BREAKING: Judge Tostrud -- a Trump appointee — has quickly granted a restraining order, barring the administration from "destroying or altering evidence" taken from today's shooting. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

When the Trump administration immediately blamed the victim in Minneapolis today, Gov. Tim Walz reacted by saying, "Thank God, thank God we have video." My new column for CNN about the ubiquity of video in Minnesota and beyond >>>

The DHS funding bill is effectively dead in the Senate.

“This is a very dangerous tool in the hands of an out-of-control agency. This granular location information paints a detailed picture of who we are, where we go, and who we spend time with." www.404media.co/inside-ices-...

I’ve been here on the scene all morning. Right after recording the convoy you can see in the background of the video tear gassed me.

he knows that we know he's lying. he's telling us we're all terrorists to him. he's telling us that to dissent is now a capital crime. he's telling us they'll shoot us, too, and they'll say we deserved it.

He was legally observing He was helping other legal observers He was helping other potential victims He was not brandishing a gun May Alex Pretti’s memory be a blessing

they're executing moms and nurses in the street. they're using preschoolers as bait. they're stealing people's dads and grandmas and children. they're tear gassing babies. they're staking out schools. there is no remedy but abolition. any proposal that doesn't start there is an act of violence.

The newest video shows very clearly that they attacked him for coming to an aid of a woman that the agents pushed, and then executed him while he was immobilized. Everything the government has said, like with Good, has been a complete lie.

ICE are indistinguishable from a terrorist organization

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him. White. Hot. Rage.

Breaking: ICE is now reportedly following white people on grocery runs in Minnesota, suspecting they're delivering food to neighbors too afraid to leave their homes. Neighborhood instructions: Don't put the address in your phone. Don't use GPS. Write it on paper. And if you get stopped, eat it.

Renee Good said “I’m not mad at you.” Alex Pretti said “Are you ok?”

Alex Pretti’s last words were “are you ok?” said the woman next to him who ICE also pepper sprayed in the face.

Alex from our time working together, while he was in nursing school. Later, he moved to ICU, working as a nurse to support critically ill Veterans. He had such a great attitude. We’d chat between patients about trying to get in a mountain bike ride together. Will never happen now

ICE are abducting toddlers and using them as bait. They murdered a mother of 3 and executed a VA ICU nurse. They're beating, pepper spraying, and gassing US citizens protesting their actions. When is it enough? This needs to end immediately.

i do genuinely think we need to jail every single person currently working for ICE

This martyr could be any of us. He is doing what so many of us have been trained to do. Standing and recording on his phone, trying to warn his neighbors, and now he’s dead because armed, masked federal paramilitaries are acting with impunity to perform ethnic cleansing.

this is what’s up
