The Trump administration finally admits what everyone knew on day one: There is no way to defend these unconstitutional executive orders. This shameful assault on the rule of law has failed thanks to the brave lawyers who refused to compromise their integrity.

Bellingcat@bellingcat.com · 6mo agoAlex Pretti, a 37-year-old intensive care unit nurse was shot and killed by federal agents in Minneapolis, on January 24. DHS claims he died after an armed struggle, but videos of the incident appears to contradict that claim. Read our analysis here: www.bellingcat.com/news/2026/01...
TONIGHT: Join the mass call on documenting and recording law enforcement encounters. We’ll discuss how you can keep taking action as federal agents terrorize our communities. Using our constitutional right to document and record ICE & CBP is more important than ever: www.mobilize.us/nokings/even...
I'm sure a few ICE agents suspect this already, but it seems very clear that DJT, Miller & Bovino WANT an ICE agent to get killed. They need their own martyr. There is a reason they are putting them in increasingly volatile situations.
Remember: If we allow ourselves to fall into fatalism, or wallow in disappointment, or become resigned to what is rather than what should be, we will lose the long game. The greatest enemy of positive social change is cynicism about what can be changed.
❄️Check on neighbors during the winter storm. ❄️Contact your Senators and tell them to oppose DHS appropriations bill that maintains ICE funding. ❄️Be kind to yourself. ❄️Stay warm. Sen. Tim Kaine Richmond: (804)-771-2221 D.C: (202) 224-4024 Sen. Mark Warner Richmond: (804)-775-2324 D.C: (202)-224-2023
We stand with Minnesota! 🚨Below are ways to take action compiled by the Virginia 50501 Movement and Indivisible Action Project.🚨 a thread
