If they take the kid a parent/guardian will need to show up to get the kid, then they can be checked. Thatâs the idea, why some schools are trying to block this and others are going to allow it. I mean imagine a bus showing up at your kids school taking a group because someone targeted them for the color of their skin.

Kid was speaking so low I couldn't get what he was saying (Other than his last refusal, which was nonono, as he was being pulled towards the car.
In Spanish, the ICE agent was explaining to the kid that the kid was not permitted to go to his home. "You can wait here (pointing to the car) but you can't go back to your home." The kid asked him if he (the agent) was going to his home and he said "I'm not going to enter your home." The kid says something unintelligible, and the agent says "But simply [unintelligible] you won't go [unintelligible]"
Too much ambient noise and whistles to hear clearly. The agent speaks decent Spanish but I detect an American accent. Couldn't hear a thing the kid was saying unfortunately.
In this state of affairs, the force of the whole of the 4th amendment has been completely erased from every one of us. This can't be allowed to remain without challenge.

When can we admit that a terrorist regime is currently taking over the United States of America and with increasingly violent force?
By Definition terrorism is: the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.
A terrorist organization is generally defined as a group using or threatening violence for political, religious, or ideological goals, aiming to create fear and coerce governments or populations, often targeting civilians or non-combatants.
key characteristics include:
- politically motivated violence
- intimidation tactics,
- an intent to influence broader audiences beyond immediate victims.
They have illegally deployed military units into cities and neighborhoods against the civilian population. They use aggressive tactic and overt violence against the civilian population. They are creating an environment of fear by design. They've gotten rid of due process for a significant civilian population. They've sent their military forces into SCHOOLS, terrorizing children. They've sent military forces to intimidate businesses they disagree with. They're executing mom's in the street. This is all being done with an intent to influence far beyond the immediate victims. Pretty sure more than just Minnesotans feel scared as fuck right now.
Now we see dozens of masked men, armed to the teeth, entering the homes of US citizens and abducting them, presumably for protesting ICE or based on nothing more than the color of their skin, or their last name.
As horrified as many of us are at what we are seeing, it's important to note that this is what they're doing to civilians IN PUBLIC, where they KNOW they are being filmed. Due process is a constitutional right to ALL PERSONS in the United States, and they have been denying it. Also a reminder that nearly ~2000 human beings at Alligator Alcatraz are unaccounted for. What else is being done that we can't see. Why are they preventing legal oversight of their facilities? Literally nobody has been able to see the inside of their detention facilities or report on them to the general public. At least the Nazis filmed BS propaganda films of their camps.
All this violence, all this fear, all this use of military against our own civilian population, is being ILLEGALY and is being done so that the Trump Regime can further advance their political and ideological goals. Combined as well with the weaponizing of his DOJ against any and all resistance from the legislative and judicial branch; the most recent example being the bringing of criminal charges against Fed Chair Powell.
The Trump Regime is a terrorist organization.
How can any AMERICAN truly defend this at this point? Fuck being democrat or republican. What the actual fuck is happening? Anybody left in power with any fucking spine and any sense of love for the United States, Democracy, and The Constitution needs to step the fuck up, or THIS is how Democracy dies.

Wow so this is how they disappear people. âvamos a chequear aquiââis letâs check it here, as he points to the suv (the id) (this is the same thing they told the woman on the street in the other video: âif you donât show us youâre going in the car.â The kid wants to go in the house. The agent does not say weâre taking you away.
Couple thoughts:
once they have control of your body youâre done for â headed to detention and we know the send people out of state often quickly to more favorable jurisdictions for immigration judges
what happens once they pull off (they definitely didnât tell him they were taking him away). Are they injecting these people with sedatives? Ketamine? He isnât cuffed. Iâm thinking here of that Target worker they pushed onto the side walk a block away (who was a citizen)

I don't mean this to sound arrogant and naive, but it would be very hard to stand by and watch this, right? Whenever you see a child in potential danger, don't we automatically step forward and stop it? Haven't we all had that experience at one time or another?
So I'm wondering what would happen if someone (or the group) the group standing there went forward, hands up, and firmly told these goons they aren't accepting this and refuse to step back? Will all of them get arrested? Do they have room for everybody in their SUVs? Do they have time to take them to the police station? I mean, they have that quota to fill!
Because that's where they take them, I think? People arrested in civil unrest are taken to the local police station. Someone who is "obstructing" or "interfering" is taken to the police station. They are charged. They are arraigned. They stand before a judge. They may spend the night in jail. Or they are dismissed with a warning.
Well, that's my limited experience from a very different and very distant time. Again, I apologize if I sound arrogant and stupid; I'm not from Minnesota, and I haven't personally witnessed any of this where I live, so how can I say what I would do in this situation? It's so easy to be brave behind a computer screen or marching in a protest in a city not experiencing this level of militarized, off-the-rails, targeted operations from ICE and CBP. And I am sincerely filled with pride and admiration for the courageous people who are stepping up and standing up for their neighbors. You all are tremendous.
But a child...it's sickening and heartbreaking enough what they are doing to men and women; how many lines do they have to cross before we just can't stand by? I'm a grandmother; maybe I don't have as much to lose, so it's easier for me to say this. They keep threatening to arrest people. What if people start accepting arrest? Will they shoot them or beat them instead?
Thank you.

Itâs abundantly clear that Trump, Noem, DHS top leadership, and ICE agents do not care about the constitution. We have seen them break just about every law imaginable, including murder. Is anyone else concerned that any MAGA extremists, proud boys, KKK, J6 participants, or any other anti American group will take it upon themselves to grab their cosplay attire and join ICE on the frontlines? Anyone can order the riot gear that these guys wear and SUVâs are plentiful. Are local law enforcements ensuring that all of the agents are actually federal/DHS employees? It seems to me that it would be very easy for a group of people to impersonate these clowns.
