What a weird framing. Why are we talking about “battles” against Americans inside America?
Shows you just how far around the bend the conservatives have gone.
No, they’re digging in at military base nearby
Fort Snelling, a historic decommissioned military base in an unincorporated area next to the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport, to house federal immigration agents, weapons, vehicles and aircraft.
Fort Snelling is already the site of a U.S. Immigrations and Custom Enforcement field office and a DHS immigration enforcement and detention processing center. CBP will use land on a U.S. Army Reserve base there.

If anybody is interested in doing anything further let me know, I can point you to resources or more.
Is there any form of support that doesn’t rely on financial donation? Not that I’m too good to donate or anything… I’m just broke as fuck.
What I posted is an aggregate of a lot of orgs doing work. I know sometimes they need calling folks and the like. Also you can always pass the info on to others who you think can help. Or if you have the time you can seek out “rapid response” teams in your local area.
Good general advice on organizing, also a good resource to find groups near you that are likely aligned. https://www.fiftyfifty.one/organizer-resources
“We’re tired of getting our feelings hurt at protests. Can you send is somewhere we won’t get caught when we kill people?”
That’s all I hear. Nobody forced them to work for ICE and they can quit any time they want to.
The five year retention bonus will never be paid out because they will all be fired in four years and replaced with a more formal military occupation force.
I thought they’d have to pay it back if they quit, anyone know which it is?
Maybe they should be sent to the areas thick with the 20% or so of the country that supports ICE.
See how well they are received there when they strut around in their tacticool cosplay outfits, shoving bystanders, tackling random people, kidnapping children, thinking they can batter down doors without a warrant and demand “papers” from anyone they come across.
They only get their 50k bonus if they stay for five years, and they have to pay off all those macho pickups they bought …
Send them to texas. Send all garbage humans to texas
Please, no. Some of us are trying really hard to unfuck this shit.
There there. *pat* *pat*
There there.
Aww… Thanks for the- HEY!
“the brand new agents are idiots.” He blamed what he saw as lowered hiring standards
But, in both cases, the instigator and murderer was a veteran of the ICEstapo for 8-10 years.
That’s right, its like the new guys don’t even have experience shooting unarmed protesters
I thought the nazi that killed Pretti wasn’t ID’d yet?
Hague.
If they sent them to the Hague, then Trump would just send the US military to the Hague to rescue them by “all means necessary” and it would all be entirely legal, frankly because the USA is a country run predominantly by criminals.

Icehole: “Wait, the people here stand up for themselves, wtf?. I was told they would cower in fear and run away, but they film us and blow those damn whistles. I was told no one would say anything when we beat the shit out of people and shoot them. Also, it’s cold. I wanna go to a nice warm red state where they hate the same people we do and cheer us on when we fuck 'em up.”
Threat briefings are now fixated on alleged “retaliatory” plots against ICE and Border Patrol after the deaths of Pretti and Good. “Lots of people are freaking out,” one officer told Klippenstein, saying agents are “getting seriously paranoid, afraid of being targeted by ‘retaliators,’” and talk as if “we are fighting insurgents,” turning Minneapolis into a domestic Baghdad.
What’s that Battlestar Galactica quote about the people becoming the enemy of the state?
The result, officers say, is an overstretched and physically and emotionally shattered force. Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) teams are “being squeezed heavily” to police protests rather than tracking down immigration targets. This, they say, leaves “lots of guys totally exhausted out there with a lot of pressure on them” to conduct non-immigration missions, one officer said.
Poor babies. You can always quit.
Another warned that the FBI is now “reluctant to participate” in any Minneapolis task forces.
Interesting.
One senior ICE agent summed up his reaction to Pretti’s killing in two words: “F–k this.”
Fuck ICE.
what they should be afraid of is people wondering how many other bodies ice has left along the border. if that agent was confident enough to shoot a restrained man in the back while being filmed by multiple people. thats not his first.
Oh poor babies.
as it turns out, when your only requirements to join are touch your toes and run a mile in 30 minutes, you get every dimwitted 3rd grade reading level zero discipline morons chomping at the bit to pretend they’re in call of duty
I doubt they can touch their toes.
I bet they can. Just get me a hatchet.
I’ve never heard the noise I made when I read this come out of my mouth before. I’m dying.
Maybe they did it as a group activity
