The people of Minnesota Won! Don't let them gaslight you!

[senseandsensibility]

The peaceful people of MN have sent ICE packing. They have caused them to retreat through their peaceful actions. Unfortunately, there were casualties, and we must never forget their sacrifice.

Do not let the administration and the corporate media spin this as Tom Homan being "reasonable" and working with the local officials there. No, that's not what happened. They lost. And as the Governor of MN said, the Federal Government now needs to pay for all the costs incurred by the state due to its actions

1. Lying is their game. Gaslighting is what tRump & his cabal specialize in. They've lie about everything. Pathologically.

2. We won, but at terrible cost: Two dead, families broken, citizens terrorized,

small businesses ruined. And I'm afraid the whole shit show will move to some other community and crank up their reign of terror again. Be ready to resist hard and without stopping if they come to your city.

3. The Minneapolis Protester has to be up there as Time's Person of the Year

5. Yes, Homan is anything but reasonable

and he never would have left MN unless the people stood up to this administration. CNN is really painting this as some kind of "victory" for Homan.

6. Yes! Beware!

ICE used Minnesota as a testing ground. How far could they push it? They know now. So, they're going to spread out to new fields and implement what they have learned. Watch them go into smaller areas and start rounding people up and shipping them away. They've seen what happens if they go into a larger metro area. But, while they've been doing that, they've also been working in smaller communities, where their actions don't get the same attention they did in Minneapolis and St. Paul.

Smaller cities don't have the resources, nor the active population those two cities have. Citizens turned out in numbers too large for ICE to control easily. They've learned from that. But, suppose you're in a city of 50,000 or even smaller. The response will not be as immediate nor will it be as focused. So, ICE will be able to round people up quickly, ship them off somewhere and move to another city.

The pattern is going to change, I predict. By the time a smaller city mobilizes to protest ICE, they'll be done and will be gone. Gone to the next city or town. And so on and so on.

So, be ready, wherever you are. If you have an immigrant community that is substantial, they'll be coming. Look at that small city in Idaho.

ICE is far from gone. It's just on the move.

from a local!

8. This what real heroes look like.

9. It's pretty clear the people of Minnesota ran them out of town.

This was an historical victory For the People.

10. Minnesota won but it was, in some ways, a Pyrrhic victory.

Minnesota lives were lost and no one is being held accountable.

[senseandsensibility]

11. Yes, I am not saying it was worth it

when two people are dead. That's not for me to say and it was an absolutely unnecessary tragedy. But it showed how determined MN was and how hard they fought.

12. Don't think for a moment ICE is done

I hear they are already here in Pennsylvania.

13. The Battle of Minneapolis is ongoing.

No victory without justice.
