I hope that whatever marginal gains the Democrats accomplish as the minority party with respect to ICE are just the beginning, though I fear they'll be an end. ICE was bad under Obama. It stayed. It was bad under Biden. It stayed. But ICE is bad because of what it does, not just how it does it.

Note I sent to @repauchincloss.bsky.social this morning concerning that heinous Q&A last night
I want to start out by telling you how excited I was to see you holding a Q&A with your constituents concerning the egregious actions of ICE in MN these past 3 weeks. However, I was quickly horrified when I saw not only who your guest speaker was, but heard the things he had to say.

DHS is currently buying warehouses to turn into concentration camps. In a country already littered with detention centers. People are being grabbed off the streets and disappeared. Americans are being executed. And you thought having a former assistant secretary for DHS to explain how no matter how much we suffer, ICE and BP are necessary, was a good idea?

Maybe you are oblivious to what ICE and BP have operated as since their inception, but many of us are not. I taught for 7 years in Texas before moving to Brookline. I watched my students lose fathers, brothers, aunts, even boyfriends, to ICE and deportation. And when I say lose, I don't just mean they were deported. MANY were killed in the process, whether stateside through mistreatment in detention centers, or murdered once sent to countries with zero support or protection. I cannot begin to express how disgusted I felt listening to Nunez-Neto describe how necessary ICE is. Truly. It's one of the more disgusting things I've heard from an official of a democratic administration. And I am deeply ashamed to have you as a representative, presenting that man and his beliefs as the correct stance in this moment.

All this to say: Abolishing ICE is the moderate position. That is the bare minimum you must work towards as a representative of this community. ESPECIALLY when the MAJORITY of Americans want ICE abolished. Anything less, and you might as well be a fascist with Trump. Because you are ignoring the desires of the majority of this country. 

That is not democracy.

Please don't try running for a democratic seat in this state again if you are just going to push xenophobic strong border nonsense like what I had to sit through last night.

Shame on you.

Abolish ICE. Prosecute ICE.

They need to be a lot clearer about unmasking agents. The impunity these agents feel being masked is a very real thing. I predict a lot of agents will quit the force if they’re forced to do the job unmasked knowing they won’t get peace anywhere.

"Sorry sorry trying to delete." Besides the moronic if not totally disingenuous absurdity of this statement, I am so sick of these people calling murders "senseless." Every one of these crimes makes sense. Calling them senseless just lets you off the hook for doing anything about it

It had nothing to do with him having a gun. The presence of a gun merely provided a convienent lie for why they murdered him, which they did because they enjoy doing it. It's why they do this job. They like hurting people and they take any chance they can get

Good god
Overall, CBP’s arrest and misconduct rate is FIVE TIMES higher than other federal law enforcement agencies — and, in fact, if you look over the last decade, the arrest rate of CBP officers and Border Patrol agents (.5%) has been HIGHER than the arrest rate of undocumented immigrants in the United States (.4%).

I found this bit, by a journalist who has written about CBP and ICE for many years, to be really instructive on how shockingly and persistently lawless those agencies, and especially CBP, have been for their entire existence, for more or less the same reason. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/ice-101-ho...

ICE and CBP are fatally flawed products of the post-9/11 War on Terror — now Trump has weaponized those very flaws to occupy America.

And he didn’t. He tried to help a woman who’d just been assaulted. There was nothing rash, stupid, or radical about what he did. He showed kindness. And they killed him for it.

Arrest them or stfu. You don’t want that confrontation? Well the alternative is letting the people in your state be murdered, tortured, kidnapped. Children abducted and abused. THAT is the only alternative the ICE nazis are offering. That is what you, Frey and you colleagues have allowed so far.

Today I'm remembering Philando Castile, shot in 2016 by police in the Minneapolis suburbs after being pulled over for a broken brake light. "Sir, I have to tell you that I do have a firearm on me," he said. Ten seconds later one of the cops had shot him five times. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Killing...

The newest video shows very clearly that they attacked him for coming to an aid of a woman that the agents pushed, and then executed him while he was immobilized. Everything the government has said, like with Good, has been a complete lie.

By who? Who shot the person dead? You saw the video. We all know a federal agent shot a man dead who was prone on the ground. Also, it's not "according to officials." It's according to verified video seen with your eyes. Not saying what anyone can obviously see with their eyes is a form of lying.
NYT push alert: "A person was shot dead today during a struggle with federal agents in Minneapolis, according to officials."

The reporter follows up, asks if the gun was "moved from the scene" and asked who exactly is providing the account that the victim was brandishing the weapon (as one isn't visible in the video) Bovino fumbles around a bit and the press conference is cut off.

Yes this is what policing is in this country. The difference is, and it's minor, is that cops still have to go through the motions of maybe getting in trouble when they kill before getting off later. These guys kill someone and the administration goes on TV and says fuck you they deserved it the end
