Get ICE out of our state and stop terrorizing children. Snuck into a school yesterday and abducted a girl, now they're pretending it's Fallujah in Northeast at the school bus stops. ICE OUT!

December 5: Chief O'Hara says if his officers witness ICE using unlawful force, "I expect them to intervene, or they'll be fired."

February 23: MPD has no interventions to report.

Only because this woman lived and they tried to prosecute her did any of this information about the conspiracy to attack her and cover it up come out.

under questioning by Rand Paul, ICE officials confirm that yelling at officers is not assault and recording officers is not a crime

[austerity is theft @wideofthepost]

because ice agents have been executing u.s. citizens with zero legal consequence

Federal agents took scans and samples of his biometric data and made a copy of his phone, all without a warrant.

ICE is arresting and charging suburban moms who protest or document ICE activity with felonies that carry up to 20 years in prison.

They crush the local economy, deplete city budgets, illegally withhold congressionally allocated funds. In exchange we get masked Texans running wild in the streets, paid for with tax money that was supposed to be used on our healthcare. Thank you to our federal partners.

🚨BREAKING: Law enforcement threatened to kill an unarmed 17-year-old as he was leaving an anti-ICE protest in Indianapolis.

In the video, police officers stop a 17-year-old and order him out of his car.

He calmly asks why.

Instead of answering, an officer opens the car door, grabs his arm, and says:

“I will fucking kill you.”

An armed officer told an unarmed child he would kill him… with zero justification.

The teen looks visibly shocked and gets out of the car.

Officers then shove him against the vehicle and begin searching him.

After threatening his life, the officer tries to justify it by saying,

“He was reaching for a gun.”

The teen responds, “Who was reaching for a gun?!?”

They find no gun… because he never had a gun, and never reached for anything.

This police officer illegally threatened to use lethal force against a minor who committed no crime.

Which is exactly what happens when a government excuses, defends, and normalizes law enforcement aggression.

When officers know they won’t be held accountable, the threats get louder, the lies get sloppier, and the violence escalates.

So, @Google handed ICE my credit card and bank account numbers as they attempted to track and detain me. I fled to Switzerland before they could.

Now my lawyer at @EFF has written to @Google, @Meta, and other tech companies urging them to resist fulfilling subpoenas.

🚨BREAKING: ICE agents are now threatening to arrest U.S. citizens for getting gas in their own neighborhood, in Saint Peter, Minnesota.

In the video, agents walk up to the car of a U.S. citizen.

She says, “I’m legally observing. I’m legally allowed to be here.”

The agent mutters something under his mask and she responds, “I’m legally allowed to be in my vehicle in my own neighborhood.”

He then says, “I’m not saying you’re not…”

So, if she is not doing anything illegal, why are ICE agents walking up to her car, masked and armed, threatening a U.S. citizen?

He then continues saying, “but if you follow me you are going to get arrested.”

She tells him, “I’m in my own neighborhood, at my local gas station. This is where I get gas.”

And he responds, “This is your one warning.”

Again, for what? He already admitted she hasn’t done anything illegal.

She repeats, “This is where I get gas.”

He turns around and says, “You had your one warning.”

And walks away…

Threatening arrest when someone is sitting in their own car in a public place is intimidation.

You do not lose your First Amendment rights because federal agents feel uncomfortable being watched.

Legal experts have repeatedly noted that documenting or observing government activity is generally protected speech, as long as you’re not actually interfering.

And any stop or detention still requires specific, articulable suspicion of actual illegal activity… not “you’re making us nervous.”

So, we’re now watching a pattern where community members and observers are being threaten, or detain, by ICE agents, for simply being nearby, or monitoring enforcement actions.

And that’s illegal.

ICE agents are trying to scare people out of exercising their constitutional rights in their own neighborhoods.

And once people are too afraid to watch… And too afraid to speak… the Constitution stops meaning anything at all.

The focus is off Minneapolis, but ICE and border patrol are still doing this 👇🏻

So at least 8 out of 10 didn’t. Noem lied. Again.

[big_pedestrian @big_pedestrian]

The difference between a prison and a concentration camp is a prisoner has a trial, is convicted of a crime and sentenced.

ICE is sending tens of thousands of *legal residents* with NO criminal record to detention, then subjecting them to horrific and lethal conditions.

[Scott Hechinger @ScottHech]

Police lie. All the time. In paperwork. To prosecutors. To the media. On the stand while testifying under oath. And even when in the very rare case their lies are exposed, they get to keep lying with few if any consequences. This pattern isn’t just limited to ICE.
