Someone Has To Stop ICE From Disrupting The Minneapolis Airport

Asking the governor and AG to call in the state police or National Guard to prevent ICE from disrupting the airport.

We are going to fight now or this shit is going to get way worse, more people are going to be murdered.

I understand you filed a lawsuit, lawsuits take time and this administration really doesn't abide by judges' rulings.

American citizens shouldn't be forced to show the Gestapo their papers.

Take a fucking stand, let them sue you, but try to stop them from disrupting the airport.

when he said on live TV that Democrats aren't divided between progressives and moderates, he said they are divided between those who want to fight now, those who have courage and those who want to wait Krasnov out.

I posted this yesterday and got one comment that I should name Democrats who want to wait, I refrained from naming names but I changed my mind.

Back in March when Democrats were set to take a stand and not pass the CR until they got protections for our social safety net, Chuck Schumer kneecapped them and led a minority to pass the CR which opened the door for Magats to pass the Big Ugly Death Bill.
Schumer then went on Chris Hayes and gave his reason why. Schumer flat out said on live TV that Krasnov will destroy the country and then Democrats will win the next election. That's not me saying this, Schumer said it. There are many Democrats in Schumer's camp whose strategy is to wait and beat them at the ballot box. I get 12 or more texts a day to donate money, when the time comes I will donate to my Democratic nominees, right now I am donating to Indivisible.

If we play nice there will be nothing left of our country by the time the criminal in the Oval Office leaves office.

Neville Chamberlain approach seems to be the strategy.
Let it all burn down and we get the ashes.

“For every blue-collar Democrat we lose in western Pennsylvania, we will pick up two moderate Republicans in the suburbs in Philadelphia, and you can repeat that in Ohio and Illinois and Wisconsin.” Chuck Schumer, 2016


The centrists have had since the 90s to prove that's true. They have fucking failed. Harris lost over 6+ million reliably Democratic voters in 2024. Where were the 6+ million "moderate Republican" replacement voters?

Unbelievable that he's still in any kind of leadership position

Have you heard of some sort of plan to do that? If so, please link to some source we can check out.

So far, ICE has stayed away from the airport.

What do you know that the rest of us don't?

What we know:
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents will spend three weeks at MSP Airport, checking and verifying documents of both customers and employees, an airport employee said. The employee shared a memo that details the plans, which include patrolling jet bridges.
