The courage of American women, armed with nothing but their cell phones, should shame every MAGA bro that’s ever posted photos of themselves with AR-15
🚨Minneapolis update: Citizens of Minneapolis say Native U.S. citizens have been detained by ICE and taken to Fort Snelling.
The anger on the ground is visceral.
People are pleading with independent media to document what they feel the mainstream press is missing.
🚨 BREAKING: ICE agents are crashing into civilian vehicles on Minneapolis streets to make arrests.
Residents scream “He did nothing wrong!” as federal agents ram cars, smash windows, and drag people out in broad daylight.

ICE arrested Arlit Martinez two days before her 15-year-old son died from cancer. The Maryland mother of four was headed to work when she was detained. Despite urgent pleas from her family, lawyers, and doctors, she was not released to say goodbye. She is reportedly still in federal custody. Her husband is now left to grieve and bury their son alone. This is beyond cruelty.

NBC reports that, shockingly, during his latest Moscow pilgrimage Witkoff met with Putin and his two negotiators alone and without his own interpreter, relying - in breach of protocol - on a locally present one. https://t.co/nutD8D3knJ. However, this seems half the problem (1/n)
Moscow seems pleased. One paper today: “Soviet leaders’ dream of driving a wedge between the European part of Nato & the US has come true.” Another: “Trump is destroying the world created by US liberals…the changes in the global system serve [Russia’s] interests” #ReadingRussia
