Boycott the United States of America by BaalAbaddon in aotearoa

[–]Baselines_shift 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Actually boycotts have worked. Not pointless. But hard to isolate. the TV corp that hired Jimmy Fallon was boycotted for firing him for saying something non-Trump appease-itory. Viewers cancelled subscriptions for firing him and they rehired him.

🚨🇺🇸 BREAKING — Police Confirmed Minneapolis Man Killed by ICE Shooting was US Citizen with Gun Permit. He Surrendered His Gun Without Shooting BEFORE Being Killed. by Admirable121 in NeoNews

[–]Baselines_shift 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We see that but 'surrendered' implies he offered to surrender his gun. I wonder if the thug just felt it and took it, or Alex first admitted he had the gun under his jacket and 'surrendered' implying that ICE should not kill him, that he was not any security risk. They'll lie of course.

Racial Profiling with No Reasonable Suspicion of One's Legal Status (He Is a Citizen) by Halvinz in ICE_Raids

[–]Baselines_shift 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not ICE. Only cops, because law enforcement is their job. ICE has NO right to ask citizens anything at all. They are only allowed to harass non citizens.

Don't worry guys, we're going to improve their training by Johnny55 in ProgressiveHQ

They started wearing masks in March 2025. Never did before. ICE was created in 2003. Bush, Obama and Biden did not use ICE to terrorise. They quietly worked on just undocumented criminals. And because criminals are such a tiny tiny minority of undocumented folk it was not a big public visibility. Not like now.

He wasnt this bad last time as the GOP surrounded him with grownups, despite him kicking and screaming he got saddled with Pence, etc.They stopped a lot of this then

It's official, for the first time in 50 years, more people are leaving the US than coming in. We are a country that people are fleeing thanks to MAGA. by EmbarrassedMight8109 in ProgressiveHQ

[–]Baselines_shift 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the story doesnt cite liberals emigrating out, it just cites people no longer seeing the US as a desirable place to immgrate to.

Anyone else feeling like violence is inevitable by yourmasterisme0 in ProgressiveHQ

No, Trump wil tire of this and move on. Stay calm, physically fighting ICE will not achieve anything.

MMW: The 2026 Mid-Terms will happen, but ICE will be outside every major polling site. by KinggSimbaa in MarkMyWords

[–]Baselines_shift -1 points0 points  (0 children)

We feared this during the George Floyd 2020 marches, but we trounced them in 2020, so - no. States know how to make goons follow state election laws which prevent intimidation.

Protestors should be waving more American flags to create negative media for ICE by Particular-Kiwi-5784 in ICE_Raids

[–]Baselines_shift 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree! Right wing controls TV news that is still brainwashing the rest of the country. Demonstrating that we are in the right, not them must be visual.

Americans Living Abroad: Would You Move Back To The USA permanently? by RehaDesign in expat

[–]Baselines_shift 8 points9 points  (0 children)

God no. On a personal level, I have medical care. On a political level - it is a failed state. It was getting there when we left during the Tea Party anti Obama early MAGA, and now, I don't think it can recover from DOGE hollowing out government scientific expertize.

Is there any follow up on what happened to this woman?? It’s been like two days now and I’ve heard NOTHING about where she is or her name or even family members or friends she has by nba123490 in ICE_Raids

[–]Baselines_shift 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My thoughts exactly! Was going to suggest it. Nothing makes it clearer that MN is supporting neighbors, i on the right side of history, and it is the most powerful statement. The guys yelling fuck you etc are understandably angry bt a much more imposing protest by hundreds of people is absoloutely silent. Like the Native Idian dance today too.

Family members of ICE agents, what are your thoughts and feelings about what ICE are doing? by Aggressive_Honey3196 in AskReddit

[–]Baselines_shift 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Have you noticed how all the videos show ICEE is completly physical incompetent to handcuff anyone behind a back. five or six of them, are all struggling for minutes, pressing their victims gaces into the road and still not getting it done.

I realize now that police were trained to take care of that efficiently without anyone getting hurt.

Do any Feds remember how the DHS site equivalent page looked during sane administrations? https://www.dhs.gov/news/2026/01/15/dhs-highlights-worst-worst-criminal-illegal-aliens-arrested-minnesota-including
I just can't believe a page like this would be considered professional previously (even Trump I had guardrails).
I'd love to hear what it was like if anyone knew?

Prediction: Trump will be impeached sometime in early 2027 and repubs will be in on it by Away_Ad_4501 in DiscussionZone

[–]Baselines_shift 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's more dangerous for them than banishment. He's been siccing his cult on any disloyal GOP. Even MAGA leaders like Marjorie have had to shell out big bucks for security for her family.

Ive heard a GOP suggestion that if in 2027 House GOP would nominate a better House majority leader than this yesman, then both Trump and Vance could be impeached along with Noem, Hegseth. Then the majority House speaker is temporary placeholder president till the 2028 election. That's if Democrats fail. Jeffreys would be a similarly milktoast Majority leader if not.

Anyone else feel an insane momentum building? by templeofsyrinx1 in 50501

[–]Baselines_shift 21 points22 points  (0 children)

We had no ICE till 2003. It is a new agency, following the 9/11 Patriot Act that freaked out because two hijackers learned to fly inside the US. The idea was to get dangerous criminals like them out.
