Take a moment to look at the inhumanity captured in this extraordinary photo running on the front page of tonight's Minneapolis @StarTribune. It shows federal immigration agents immobilizing a protester on the ground and spraying chemical irritant directly into his face. The scene reminds me of the brutality used against civil rights protesters in the 1960s. We look back at those old photos and wonder how the authorities could have behaved so savagely; many years from now, young Americans will look at these photos from 2026 and wonder how anyone could have justified shooting a woman in the head as she tried to drive away, arresting 5-year-old schoolchildren on the street, or holding a man down and spaying chemicals into his face. Thanks to the Star Tribune reporters and photographers for documenting this work; they create accountability, they make democracy work, and they make all of us in journalism proud.
🚨UNACCEPTABLE: Expecting moms are skipping prenatal care and considering unsafe home births because they’re terrified of ICE.
That’s the definition of a public health crisis.
ICE isn’t just enforcement anymore.
It’s fear as policy.
ICE is the new the KKK
10th grader, Arnaldo BAZAN and his father were getting McDonald’s before school when immigration agents pulled them over. The agent slammed Bazan’s father to the ground and put the teenager in a chokehold. Arnaldo is 16 years old and a US citizen‼️
Renee Nicole Good is the second person who has been killed by ICE this week. In LA, ICE killed Keith Porter in his own home as he celebrated on New Year’s Eve.
People will look you dead in the eye and tell you to "have respect" for a person who has spent their entire career making sure YOU don't get to live an equal and happy life, or live at all.
“I think it's worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God-given rights. That is a prudent deal. It is rational.” -Charlie Kirk
