Once again I am calling for Democrats to introduce legislation requiring standardized uniforms, visible badge numbers with names, as well as a requirement for ICE and DHS agents to present proof that there is enough danger present to be masked to a judge when they get their warrant.

South Park residents of San Diego, California, confront Trump’s ICE agents after they stormed a local Italian restaurant to detain staff. This is how fascism is resisted. Courageous citizens standing their ground against regime thugs sent to intimidate them. More of this, America!

Good lord- my senator @amyklobuchar.com is co-sponsoring this bill. Senator- you’re throwing money at a myth; find other ways to show your support of law-enforcement. This ain’t it 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

The Angie Craig valorization gonna get thick at the Strib. The Representative from Bitcoin gets the Paul Wellstone treatment, even though a literal Wellstone campaign worker and Wellstone Alliance trainer (Peggy Flanagan) is one of her opponents. www.startribune.com/rep-angie-cr...

The cops are defunding every major city.

Imagine having two Senators who, facing fascist removals of US citizen toddlers with cancer from the US and oncoming economic ruin for the rest of us decides it’s the perfect time to worry about hotel fees. That’s the world you’ll get if Angie Craig ends up in Tina Smith’s seat. No one needs that.

Just remembered one reason Angie Craig hoovers up campaign cash is she’s all in for Bitcoin, the criminal-empowering billionaire clique who brought you Donald Trump … www.standwithcrypto.org/politicians/...

No “Democrat” in MN could possibly be worse for this moment than Angie Craig. She’s shown repeatedly that she’s willing to be an accomplice to Donald Trump’s agenda if she believes it serves her. She also loves to shit on Minneapolis and our residents to try and score political points. Hard pass.

Nah. We already have a fascist appeasing do-nothing Senator, @klobuchar.senate.gov. We don't need or want another.

I think the key here is there needs to be consequences. There were consequences after WWII, and Germany did not keep electing Nazis. There were no consequences after the 2008 crash. There were no consequences for trump after the first term. It was as good as permission.

I don’t think I agree with this at all for several reasons — the dichotomy of violent / peaceful is a police / state product in order to disperse and invalidate every protest. It never matters if it’s peaceful, the police will frame it as violent and the attack.

One of the defining feelings in American life, for decades now, is elites doing plainly criminal shit and nothing at all happening as a result. It is deranging in a way that virtually nothing else is. Media fixates on perceived street lawlessness but shit like this matters much more in my opinion.

For $769 million, St. Paul could build a new home for every homeless resident and have money left over to provide services to keep them off the streets. I suspect it would pay for itself in just a few years.

Other countries should start talking about boycotting the 28 Olympics and pushing to ban the US from upcoming games. Just saying.

Is this really necessary?
