ICE agent tells a driver to stop filming, then reaches into the car to grab the phone, triggering a violent struggle inside the vehicle. This violates the First and Fourth Amendments, conduct a court ordered stopped just days ago.
The Trump administration is disgusting!
Yesterday, ICE raided a home on St. Paul’s East Side. Their target was ChongLy Scott Thao, an elderly Hmong American man.
He’s a U.S. citizen with no criminal record.
Armed ICE agents broke down the door without presenting a valid warrant, entered with guns drawn, and handcuffed him in front of his 5-year-old grandson, who was left crying and traumatized.
This happened in sub-zero conditions, with wind chills near -30°F. Thao was dragged outside wearing only shorts, a blanket, and Crocs and marched through the snow.
ICE then drove him around for nearly an hour, questioned and fingerprinted him, confirmed he was a citizen and not the person they were looking for… and dropped him back at home.
No apology. No explanation. No accountability.
Is this what you voted for?
SEID GEWARNT‼️
Schaut euch diese ICE-Nazis sehr gut an!
Wenn die faschistoide AfD ihre "Remigration" mit "wohltemperierter Grausamkeit"umsetzt,wird auch in Deutschland die neue Gestapo wieder durch die Straßen marschieren!
AfD-Jugend & Co werden Schlange stehen um dabei zu sein!
If you want the next generation to live in the comfort of your democratic institutions, it’s time to take security matters seriously and act now.
There is no time left — many forces are already at war with you even if you choose not to see things this way.
End.

@SZ Ist diese Aufmachung gewollt?
Es liest sich wie „SZ auf der Seite der Hamas“
Wenn es nicht so zynisch und menschenverachtend wäre, würde ich denken, es sei gewollt „unglücklich“ gewählt. Bitte erklärt euch @SZ#Israel_under_attack#IsraelUnderAttack#StandWithIsrael
This is a pertinent clip from Sam Harris on the moral difference between Israel and her enemies.
The moral difference comes down to understanding the answer to this question: what would each side do if they had the power to do it?
TRANSCRIPT:
The truth is that there is an obvious, undeniable, and hugely consequential moral difference between Israel and her enemies. The Israelis are surrounded by people who have explicitly genocidal intentions towards them. The charter of Hamas is explicitly genocidal. It looks forward to a time, based on Koranic prophesy, when the earth itself will cry out for Jewish blood, where the trees and the stones will say “O Muslim, there’s a Jew hiding behind me. Come and kill him.” This is a political document. We are talking about a government that was voted into power by a majority of Palestinians.
The discourse in the Muslim world about Jews is utterly shocking. Not only is there widespread Holocaust denial—there’s Holocaust denial that then asserts that we will do it for real if given the chance. The only thing more obnoxious than denying the Holocaust is to say that it should have happened; it didn’t happen, but if we get the chance, we will accomplish it. There are children’s shows in the Palestinian territories and elsewhere that teach five-year-olds about the glories of martyrdom and about the necessity of killing Jews.
And this gets to the heart of the moral difference between Israel and her enemies. And this is something I discussed in The End of Faith. To see this moral difference, you have to ask what each side would do if they had the power to do it.
What would the Jews do to the Palestinians if they could do anything they wanted? Well, we know the answer to that question, because they can do more or less anything they want. The Israeli army could kill everyone in Gaza tomorrow. So what does that mean? Well, it means that, when they drop a bomb on a beach and kill four Palestinian children, as happened last week, this is almost certainly an accident. They’re not targeting children. They could target as many children as they want. Every time a Palestinian child dies, Israel edges ever closer to becoming an international pariah. So the Israelis take great pains not to kill children and other noncombatants.
What do we know of the Palestinians? What would the Palestinians do to the Jews in Israel if the power imbalance were reversed? Well, they have told us what they would do. For some reason, Israel’s critics just don’t want to believe the worst about a group like Hamas, even when it declares the worst of itself. We’ve already had a Holocaust and several other genocides in the 20th century. People are capable of committing genocide. When they tell us they intend to commit genocide, we should listen.
There is every reason to believe that the Palestinians would kill all the Jews in Israel if they could. Would every Palestinian support genocide? Of course not. But vast numbers of them—and of Muslims throughout the world—would. Needless to say, the Palestinians in general, not just Hamas, have a history of targeting innocent noncombatants in the most shocking ways possible. They’ve blown themselves up on buses and in restaurants. They’ve massacred teenagers. They’ve murdered Olympic athletes. They now shoot rockets indiscriminately into civilian areas. And again, the charter of their government in Gaza explicitly tells us that they want to annihilate the Jews—not just in Israel but everywhere.
An alle Zeitungs- und Fernsehredaktionen: ( für die kommenden Tage)
Hamas:
Es sind Terroristen und keine Kämpfer
Es sind terroristische Anschläge und keine Militäroperationen
Danke
Schaut in dieses Gesichter. #MohammadMehdiKarami und #SeyedMohammadHosseini wurden heute in den frühen Morgenstunden erhängt und hingerichtet. Dieses Mörder Regime muss endlich gestoppt werden. Wenn die Welt weiter wegschaut, werden viele weitere folgen. #StopExecutionsInIran
