Our city has been over-run by Nazi ghouls kidnapping people to traffic them to concentration camps and other countries. Did you ever think you'd see the day when masked gunmen jump out of moving vehicles and chase families down the street in your own neighborhood? FUCK ICE forever and ever.

This is how ICE agents responded after watching a mother of three bleed out in her car after they shot her multiple times in the head.

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today. This could be you.
Distraught woman says ICE killed her wife in video after deadly Minneapolis shooting
"They killed my wife," the distraught woman says, adding, "They shot her in the head."
An ICE agent shot and killed a 37-year-old woman who was driving an SUV in Minneapolis on Wednesday. / Screenshot/@Breaking911"They killed my wife. I don't know what to do," the woman says through sobs in the footage, with a damaged SUV visible in the distance behind her. "We stopped to videotape, and they shot her in the head," the woman cries.
"We have a six-year-old at school," she says, almost unable to breathe, as a chaotic scene in which federal officers prevented at least one doctor who was on the scene from assisting the shot victim unfolds. "We're new here," the distraught woman says in despair.

they’re abducting our neighbors and putting them in concentration camps and they’ll shoot you in the fucking face if you don’t cheer them on while they’re doing it.

Are we supposed to call our reps and tell them we don’t like when the president engages in overt war crimes, or can we trust them to get there on their own?

Big tech already threw in its lot with fascism and the only thing Dems should actually do is anti-trust them out of existence and let them beg for scraps

Books are great, I don't see a single gambling ad in them and they were written by a real person.

A tweet thread about how a bartender throws out the first Nazi to show up in the bar, because if he doesn’t, that Nazi will bring more Nazis, and soon it will be a Nazi bar
