I live here. I have seen this. Apparently the answer is do not believe what you see. Believe what we tell you. Holy shit.
The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.
Who ya gonna believe, me or your own eyes?
-Chico Marx
Apparently an ICE officer who was run over somehow managed to shoot her, then check the car and walk away.
Riiiight.
The foolish reject what they see, not what they think. The wise reject what they think, not what they see.

you have given me more peace than many others
That has been their stance for a while now.
The lesson to take away from all of this is that you're going to be murdered and they'll claim that you tried to run them over, no matter what you actually did. So why not just run them over?
The lesson is they'll escalate to violence against any random unarmed person that happens to be near them...
They haven't done this to anyone who was visibly armed tho, and I'll be shocked if they ever do.
Sooooo... Black Panthers revival party?
Fear of their own safety has become the ultimate card to play. All too common in just regular domestic incidents that escalate into something more.
This is not going to end well.
Kash Patel following orders, which will subvert any follow-up investigation forever.
The whole US administration is fucked.
For sure but people seem to be organizing to protest rather quickly. It's too close to George Floyd. It feels different. Maybe it's just hopium.
E: The video material shared on socials is so clear that it makes it obvious to anyone looking the admin is lying, badly.
This is damn near identical to how the fascists approached George Floyd.
Difference is the fascists don't have the same legal resistance to their actions to prevent an all out crackdown on opposition like in 2020.
Probably exactly why Waltz is readying the Nat Guard. It isn't to resist ICE, its an attempt to discourage Trump from taking control of them again. I don't think that's gonna work tho.
Deniers, and Discouragers are certainly not going to ‘win the day’ on this one. If you aren’t in it to win it, then get out of the way of those who are. This is a pivotal moment in history. Carefully, precisely push the pivot in the right direction.
Have you ever been through Winter in the Northern Tier states? These people know how to thrive and laugh through hardship. Don’t Fuck with MN!
Maybe it’s just hopium.
It unfortunately is.
Protesting this administration accomplishes literally nothing. They don't give one solitary fuck what we think. "We" are their enemy who would never vote for them anyway. They have literally no incentive to listen to us.
They'll lie and lie and lie, fox news will repeat the lie, Elon Fuck will retweet the lie, and the MAGA dumbfuck base will eat it up. The only video evidence they'll see is the most obscure shot imaginable that leaves it ambiguous enough for them to come to the conclusion the Reich wants them to.
Oh I don't envision protests moving hearts in the admin. They have no incentive to listen to protest in MN. They listen to their donors. If the protests grow large enough, much larger than today, that would mean missed work, expected profit loss, and at some point calls to Trump's office by the oligarch class. The regime doesn't have enough enforcement capacity to force most people to work should they decide not to. Beside, their profits rely heavily on consumption so they need everyone to work in order for the output to be consumed.
I'll never stay at a Hilton hotel ever again cause of their support of ice and them pulling the independent owner of his franchise.
Fuck Hilton.
These days it seems profits, goods, services and non-corporate customers are unnecessary and it's all about talking up the price of your stock. If you do need ordinary people to pay you money, just capture something everyone needs and charge them rent on it.
This regime has got to be destroyed and these fucks need to be put in prison or to death.
I'll just leave this here: https://www.nytimes.com/video/us/100000010631041/minneapolis-ice-shooting-video.html
If the fucking NYT is pushing back against the narrative, you know it's bad
It's so dumb because they could so easily score some points by throwing him under the bus and saying, "no he crossed a line and should face justice" but no, they've got to be as evil as fucking possible like it's compulsory.
Their goal is to cause unrest so they have an excuse to cancel the midterms
If the justice system fails the public, the public will find its own justice. This is not a positive outcome for anyone.
I wouldn't belive It if this administration told me the sky is blue and the Earth is round.
Whateverhappened to not influencing an ongoing investigation? These are the days of the shitshow live and expanded.
How odd
How unacceptably weird!?!
It's not necessarily evil, but it's one of my least favorite attributes: not admitting when you're wrong. Mature people admit and apologize when they're wrong or mistaken. Assholes and idiots double-down, victim-blame, gaslight, and lie...
These fucks don't care about being right. They have an agenda and narrative to push and will steamroll anyone who gets in their way.
While I applaud people for protesting the injustices, I fear we're long past the point that protests will bring any constructive change.
Trunp is just that Good's death is distracting from his presence in the Epstein files.
Of course they have. Accountability doesn’t align with our government it seems lately
Dear Amis, it looks more and more likely that you will have to kill and get killed to come out of this fucked up situation you put yourselves and the world into. I’m just hoping Central Europe will be - for once - spared from the violence we will unfortunately see in the next decades, as there is where my lazy ass sits…
