Explosive WaPo article Since July, DHS has fired shots at 16 people; has hit 10 , including 4 US citizens. 10 victims charged, but 4 cases later dismissed. No agents charged. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

Keep. Pushing.

Last week in Minnesota, I watched ordinary people risk their lives to protect their neighbors. In the process, they not only won a significant—though not final—victory against authoritarianism, they proved virtually every MAGA social theory wrong. (gift link) www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

I do not regret to inform you that we are going to win

There is one side of the aisle that is deeply deeply flawed, and then there’s the ruling party that wants more of what happened in Minnesota this weekend Not just the shooting, but the whole lawless, bigoted, gleefully violent crackdowns. They crave it. Those are your two options

I truly, truly get it why a lot of good people are saying that Minneapolis is not about left or right, democrats or republican, now. I understand. But I’m sorry it actually is

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

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum. Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum. Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum. ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.

The most important patriotic act any of us can take in the next 9 months is to have awkward political conversations with people in our lives who may not agree with us.

If the jackboot fits...

Walz: What side do you want to be on? The side of an all powerful federal government that can kill, injure, menace and kidnap its citizens off the streets or on the side of a nurse at the V.A. who died bearing witness to such government

Alex Pretti's gun is like Renee Good's car: irrelevant to the central fact that they were murdered by ICE. ICE wants us to debate whether Pretti should have been carrying because that avoids the central fact. Pro-carry, anti-carry--that has as much to do w/ his murder as his fashion choices. Zero.

Greg is exactly right (as usual). It's what the regime is telling people -- if you publicly oppose us, we have the right to execute you. And claiming victimhood is a centerpiece of right wing thought

The Trump regime's position seems to be that Republicans have the right to bear arms and everyone else has the right to get shot by them.

“Please get the truth out about our son.” Read and share the statement from the parents of Alex Pretti, the VA ICU nurse who was shot and killed by border patrol.

Bill Kristol is making a clearer case for what Democrats can and should do in the minority than Chuck Schumer or Hakeem Jeffries ever has

No funding for fascism is a floor. The demand must also extend to arresting all of the agents responsible and ensuring they go to trial.

“Heartbroken but also very angry… sickening lies by the administration… reprehensible and disgusting… Alex is clearly not holding a gun… please get the truth out about our son, he was a good man…”

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.

Absolutely reprehensible that AG Bondi is offering ICE stand down in exchange for access to voting rolls. Outrageous and disgusting. It shows ICE is in Minneapolis is not for law enforcement purposes. Instead it’s a way to stir up shit in blue states and extort them.

Also, may I say that I don’t agree with people saying ICE and CBP need “more training.” They’re doing exactly what this administration has trained them to—impose a reign of fear in blue cities. They don’t need more training. They need to be ripped up root and branch.

To those blaming Walz for not mobilizing the Guard, he did that six days ago. I have to say it's disturbing to see people angry at Walz instead of the government agents that just executed a man. As though we should all be experts about what to do when a secret police force invades an American city.

The amount of money that is currently going to fund immigration enforcement in the US is larger than the military budgets of every country in the world other than the US and China. We are witnessing a military assault on American cities by a wildly unpopular governing party.

From this moment forward (and before, but clearly now): -If you work for ICE. -If you vote for money for ICE. You are complicit. This is the gestapo. You're on the wrong side. You can't pretend not to know.

I recommend Minnesota Public Radio live. I’m learning a lot I’m not getting elsewhere.

Reminder: All it would take to end the murder of American citizens by an untrained government goon squad is 16 Republicans in Congress voting with Dems to defund ICE (or 23 to impeach and remove Trump — 3 in House & 20 in Senate). That’s it. 23 Americans can vote for the public and end all of this.

For those absolutely awed by Minnesota, this is the site organizers set up to support all of the efforts from mutual aid to direct resistance: www.standwithminnesota.com

ICE has now carried out two summary executions of innocent people in the streets of an American city. If you work for ICE, there's no denying that's the mission you're supporting now. You don't get to claim in one year or ten or twenty that you didn't know what ICE was doing. You're complicit.

they went to an emergency room seeking help for their 7 year old child. ICE arrested the 7 year old and her parents. the family is here legally. www.oregonlive.com/portland/202...

Tomorrow's front page of the Minnesota Star Tribune: Jan. 24, 2026

MINNESOTA VERSION OF COME OUT YE BLACK AND TANS

The parents of a 7 year old, all of whom are in the process of applying for asylum, took their daughter to the ER when her nose wouldn't stop bleeding. ICE picked them up near the hospital and they are now in detention in Texas, presumably awaiting deportation. www.oregonlive.com/portland/202...

in case you're curious about how angry Minnesota is about ICE, it was -20 today

Some thoughts: 1. The deadline for nominating a person or group for the Nobel Peace Prize is Feb. 1. 2. History professors are qualified nominators. 3. The people of Minnesota have been awe-inspiringly peaceful in the face of state violence. 4. He would be so mad.

Are you ready for tomorrow? If rallying at Target Center to say "ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA" after marching through downtown is on your bingo card, please familiarize yourself with what is and isn't allowed inside the arena.

"just lie back and take it" An administration with a rapist mentality.

This is a kitchen table issue. These children should be at kitchen tables, with their families. They should be at lunch tables, with their friends. Instead they are being kidnapped and trafficked

Here's what Trump cut in his first year in office: —$990 billion from healthcare services —$187 billion from nutrition programs —$500 billion from clean energy programs and credits Let's be clear. Every penny of those cuts went on to pay for his tax breaks for the rich.

🚨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional! ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth and private conversation.

This is no longer about enforcing immigration law at all. I cannot fund an agency that has repeatedly abused its authority, violated due process and is operating in such a provocative manner under this administration.

An absolute disgrace.

BREAKING — ChongLy Scott Thao's family has released a statement disputing DHS's outrageous justification for his arrest. "He does not live with, nor has he ever lived with, the individuals DHS claims were targets of this operation...[the family] does not know the individuals DHS references."

Gallego ("moderate" Dem) is going with "ICE needs to be totally torn down" (not "reform and retrain"). This is a pivot point for the country on immigration. You have been seeing this in the data for a while, and now officials are snapping to the public opinion www.gelliottmorris.com/p/ice-is-a-7...

Fortune 500 companies that have contracts with ICE: -Amazon -AT&T -Booz Allen Hamilton -Caci -Charter Communications -Comcast -Dell -Ecolab -FedEx -General Dynamics -L3Harris -Motorola -Thermo Fisher -UPS Know who profits from Trump's cruelty.

These powerful pics are really, really good reminders of why it makes sense for those opposing Trump to reclaim ownership of the American flag. If your audience is the giant lower-info middle of the electorate--and it should be--this seems like a really good way to get to them.

Still hard to believe that there are videos and witnesses to someone shooting a woman in the face three times. Yet the shooter has not been arrested even though the police know who and where he is.

one of the best things about this whole nightmare has been watching a whole bunch of folks who have clearly never been seriously political in their lives standing up and going, no, absolutely the fuck not, we’re not letting this happen

Amplify & expand! Confirmed list of those not funding ICE on the CR (some requiring reform) ✔️Entire House Progressive Caucus ✔️Sen Chris Murphy ✔️Sen Alex Padilla ✔️Sen Chris Van Hollen ✔️Rep Angie Craig ✔️Rep Seth Moulton If you add on, please post confirmation! Abolish ICE thread attached.
