I've read articles saying that abolishing ICE now has popular support, and other ones saying that it is much more difficult to unwind a carceral state than it was to put it together in the first place. But ICE is uniquely open to being made irrelevant via presidential order. All a president would have to do is use the vast power of pardon and clemency to pardon people for crossing the border illegally.

Immediately afterwards, ICE would have nobody to arrest or harass and no job to do.

In addition, the "bad hombres" could still be deported, but only on the back of other crimes they committed.

Well the 6 month old baby was an antifa lgbtq latino drug terrorist, duh

“My 11-year-old, who is autistic, keeps talking about it,” Destiny told Kare11. “He was talking about it all night. I couldn’t sleep because I was scared.”

When I was a kid, someone threw a brick through my bedroom window as I was heading off to sleep. It scared me so much that I had trouble sleeping for literally years after that. I can't imagine how much worse the trauma of this must've been.

God, my heart hurts to hear these stories. I'm not in the US, so all I can do is spectate with growing dread and horror.

I've been trying hard to not let myself become numb to this though, nor become too focussed on the big picture of thinking about US's descent into fascism. I'm equally powerless on that scale of things as I am when witnessing stories like this, but I've found it's better to keep my focus on the small stories. It hurts to hear them, but that hurt is one that is fundamentally good, because it is compassion for my fellow humans. In an odd way, the hurt feels grounding because it's meant to hurt, because what is going on are crimes against humanity. I'd rather feel this than nothing because it reminds me of the humanity I share with the people who are being oppressed.

I for one applaud the heroes at ICE for keeping us safe from this baby. The baby was coming right for them. They were clearly acting in self defense. I heard one of them suffered internal ego puncture. I wish these patriots a speedy recovery.

• the president probably.

It will continue to get worse.

Complete and blatant de-humanising, just as we saw in Nazi Germany.
The time to fix this will shortly pass.
The evil ideation is already spreading like a virus for the stupid, carried on instant sea of X, Facebook and others.
Good people - please take your stand by shouting down the stupid

Press: What do you have to say about ICE nearly killing an infant?

Noem: Who? Oh, they were a terrorist or something. Next question.

Magat's reading this story and asking, "But was the baby white"? before deciding if they are outraged or not.

Even though I'm a cynic about the reality we're in, I still believe stories like this would slowly wear down the right wing propaganda effect, if MAGA actually saw them.

I mean, a flashbang thrown under a family car that stopped a 6-month old from breathing and traumatized an autistic child, none of whom were even part of the protests, for no reason. The narrative MAGA is fed is that these are left-initiated violent riots, but all of the actual data is ICE terrorizing and lawlessly assaulting peaceful people. Cognitive dissonance can grow to be enough to break a person's delusional reality, but the biggest problem is just putting actual information in front of these people's eyes. Because they're never going to seek it out, or get it from a sycophantic algorithm.

It just feels insurmountable sometimes to connect with the human part of MAGA people.

Holy FUCK

This moment is coming

DHS blamed it on the parents then deleted the tweet. I'll never be anything from this gov at face value.

ICE are terrorists, every single enlisted member deserves the Gitmo treatment. Don't just dissolve them, destroy them.

That story is absolutely shocking and heartbreaking. Reports say federal agents in Minneapolis used flash bangs and tear gas during an operation, and a family driving home with six kids got caught in it their 6 month-old baby stopped breathing and was unconscious until bystanders and the mom gave CPR before medics arrived. Three of the children were taken to the hospital, and the whole thing has left the parents and the community shaken. It doesn’t sound like just a routine police action it raises real questions about how crowd control tactics are being used and whether innocent people should ever get caught up in something like this.

Soooo... Knowing this is in America - Who's gonna pay the invoice for the emergency services?

Fucking terrorist baby.

Good thing ice have their own paramedics and shit ready to deal with the 6 month old.
