I think a lot of of those folks dressing up like ICE are not even cops much less federal agents. The way they carry themselves. The way they are dressed. Something is off.

I think we’ve reached a boiling point when it comes to ICE. Today in Minneapolis, a militarized task force raided the beloved Lake Street taqueria, Las Cuatro Milpas—and the community was not having it. Agents from ICE, the DEA, FBI, ATF, IRS and HHS rolled up looking like they were ready for war.

MUST WATCH: ICE kidnapped a disabled American citizen. Her name is Alma Bowman. Born in the Philippines while her dad served in the U.S. Navy. She’s lived here 48 years. They crashed her wheelchair, denied meds, cut her off from her lawyer—and jailed her. She. Is. A. Citizen.

Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed. Getting big money out of politics. Strengthening unions and fighting for higher wages. Medicare for all, paid family leave, universal childcare... This is the progressive populist agenda we need in America.

When you are elected president, you are supposed to be president of the whole country. And protect the whole country, from natural disasters and more. No state should be denied critical funding simply because of how they voted.

He doesn’t come to his district often unless it’s for a fundraiser or for a photo op. He does post pictures from his farm twice a year — planting and harvest time. Other than that, no one I know has seen hide nor hair Congressman Sam Graves, in a very long time. open.substack.com/pub/jesspipe...

Every time someone quotes one of my posts and states that Missourians deserve to go hungry because the state went for Trump, remember that over 40% of the state voted for Harris. And, children don’t vote. Children are the ones who will go hungry...

Can anyone tell me by what means the Dallas News confirmed these were federal agents, not kidnappers? Because there is nothing in the report itself to indicate the Dallas News had any means to, or did, confirm what it is now reporting as fact. I am still unclear on whether these were federal agents.
