QOTD -- "The Occupation Of Minnesota By ICE Cannot Stand"

 

"Minnesota has endured unrest before. What the state is now experiencing looks and feels different. Battalions of armed federal agents are moving through neighborhoods, transit hubs, malls and parking lots and staging near churches, mosques and schools. Strangers with guns have metastasized in spaces where daily life should be routine and safe. It feels like a military occupation.

"Heavily armed and masked government agents are prone to confront any American they encounter in the street but especially people of certain colors, accents or styles of dress. The encounters are often violent. The federal agents operating under the insignia of Immigration and Customs Enforcement or the Department of Homeland Security, functioning largely anonymously, have disrupted the life of large swaths of a state.

"Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara captured the current angst roiling Minneapolis and much of the state. In an interview with the New York Times, he warned that the behavior of federal agents has undermined the fragile public trust his department has worked tirelessly to rebuild since 2020. 'It’s not necessarily about which laws are being enforced,' O’Hara said. 'It’s about how that enforcement is happening.'” -- Minneapolis Star Tribune editorial today.  As we noted earlier today, it's clearly the intent of the Malignant Fascist's regime to make a point with this state that's voted against him three times, and to do a practice run for election interference later this year.  His lawless militia has been told they're immune from consequences for illegal, un-Constitutional actions, so their rampaging will continue unless and until the political cost becomes too high for the MF's party/cult.  Unfortunately, nobody knows if there is such a threshold, or what it is.
