WELCH: Mr. Yoho is also the husband of your former spokesperson, Tricia McLaughlin?
NOEM: Yes
WELCH: So your former assistant and her husband are the ones that got the DHS no bid contract for $143m. Any dispute about that?
NOEM: No.
As the guy who wrote the book on zoning abolition, I'd like to go on record as saying: if you can use zoning to stop the concentration camps, fucking go for it.
It’s taken all hands: Nearly 30,000 “constitutional observers,” plus tens of thousands to film agents, deliver groceries, and accompany neighbors to school or church
They've shown the world how to fight back—without resorting to the violence being used against them. trib.al/q3Ta0nP
This is terrible. ICE must go.
happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.
Seems like a good video for his trial
CNN airs compilation of federal agents acting with extreme aggression towards peaceful observers.
A retired Minneapolis couple who had guns pointed at them by ICE in a church parking lot.
"They were obviously not trained at all. I've known many police officers in my life. These people were right off the streets."
"They had the professional demeanor of criminals."

Hey, remember all that talk about "qualified immunity" from a few years back? What ever happened with that? slate.trib.al/TfEjm1F
WOW on Pretti's denial of medical treatment
"I informed the ICE agents that I am a physician, and I asked to
assess the victim.
At first, the ICE agents wouldn't let me through. ... But none of the ICE agents who were near the victim were performing CPR, ... None of the agents were helping him."

From Mike Norton on Twitter: Empty car sitting at the intersection of 35th and Pillsbury with its flashers on. There are these ghost cars all over Minneapolis right now from ICE snatching people out of their vehicle in the middle of the street.
This is so fucking haunting.
Imagine what a tiny little man you would have to be to feel threatened by a dancing fox.
Texas has 2.1 million immigrants.
Florida has 1.6 million immigrants.
Minnesota has 130 THOUSAND immigrants.
What Trump is doing was NEVER about immigration.
It’s about RACISM and REVENGE in Minnesota.
He’s not creating jobs, or bringing down grocery prices or making healthcare affordable
A reminder how ICE treats priests.
He has the presence and cadence of a corrupt funeral director
No one explains or soothes better than Pete. No one.
Here’s a message I had to split for time.
#1: Healthcare Subsidies
#2: Greenland

Sunday, at least 7 ICE agents stormed a house and took an elderly man out into the freezing cold, wearing only his underwear and a blanket.
He was a member of the Hmong community, which came to the area from Laos in the 1970s after siding with the US in the Vietnam War.

Every good thing you have in your life is a product of someone else’s struggle…
There is an area in the ICE detention center in Minneapolis designated specifically for American citizens. Contemplate that for a minute.
Congress can stop ICE. Congress can block the use of force in Greenland. In other words, in this crisis, Congress can act to support civil liberties at home and free nations abroad. To fail to act would be to be complicit in a dreadful outcome.
Two days after an ICE agent killed Renee Good in Minneapolis, a federal agent asked an observer, "Have y'all not learned?" Her phone was taken and she was briefly detained.
Two days after that, another federal agent said, “You did not learn from what just happened” to a different observer.
Nothing the other dinners said was untrue.
Showing 3000 immigration officers to 2482 officers from the ten largest metro forces
The Star Tribune had an insane graphic about the presence of immigration enforcement in Minneapolis. There are more immigration officers in the metro right now than local police officers.
ICE threw a flash bang at a car and it had six kids in it.
All six children are in the hospital now.
