The people of Minnesota refuse to back down.

They refuse to cower.

They’re creating networks of mutual aid to bring food & supplies to immigrants who can’t leave their homes.

They’re documenting atrocities. They’re observing.

They’re ensuring the world knows the truth.

ICE agents pepper sprayed a baby girl.

The baby girl, mother and father are all US Citizens - just in case you thought your family was safe.

Rafael Veraza was spending his weekend like any other dad, on a grocery run with his wife and baby daughter at Sam’s Club. When they noticed immigration agents in the parking lot, they decided to leave without shopping.
Federal agents filled their car with pepper spray.

The video makes me sick to my stomach. His daughter screams in pain and struggles to open her eyes. When they rushed to the hospital, the doctor had to call poison control because they’d never treated such a young child for pepper spray exposure.

Now the family has to monitor for potential long-term damage to their daughter’s lungs and eyes.

Tricia McLaughlin, a DHS spokesperson, denied that agents pepper-sprayed anyone at Sam's Club. The video shows otherwise. There it is, plain as day: an agent filling a car with pepper spray while a baby screams inside.

They’re committing heinous acts of abuse, state sponsored violence, against babies. And lying about it as if we are foolish enough to take their word for it.

Rafael Veraza is a U.S. citizen. His wife is a U.S. citizen. Their baby was born here. Now he says he has hate toward the government. Who could possibly blame him?

Veraza’s wife was filming the parking lot scene on her smartphone. She wanted to show their baby the turbulent times she was born in, someday. Instead she caught the only evidence that makes them feel empowered to speak out.

Families thrive when they’re prepared. In moments when life can change without warning, DOPA forms give our immigrant community a way to protect their children and ensure they’re never left alone or without care. (1/n)

Action to take:
Share this information with your schools, your churches, your community spaces. Encourage parents to create a backup plan in case they are detained. Every child needs to know who their emergency contact is and where they will go. (3/n)

Right now, too many little ones are being found alone in homes, cars, or left waiting without a trusted adult. We can prevent this. (2/n)

[Abolish the DFL Code of Conduct Committee @bundleofsticks7]

Senator Fateh has been one of @StonewallDFL’s greatest allies in the Minnesota Senate. To attempt to paint him as anti-LGBTQ+ is not only disgusting, but indicative of how much confidence they have in Frey winning this race on his own merits.

Xi Jinping stifles political opposition and imprisons dissenters — or worse. He concentrates nearly all political power in China in one person: himself.

DICTATOR (n) — one holding complete autocratic control; a person with unlimited governmental power.
