There’s another shooting in Minneapolis this morning involving ICE.
-
@inthehands this is like a game of telephone, but fwiw, Aaron Parnas is reporting that the Star Tribune reported “that federal agents attempted to order local police to leave the scene where the man was shot and killed by federal agents earlier this morning. According to the report, Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara refused to comply with that demand and instead instructed his officers to remain on site and preserve the scene.” (quoting Parnas)
@inthehands for those looking for more updates, here is a link to live updates from the Minnesota Star Tribune: https://www.startribune.com/ice-raids-minnesota/601546426
(note: I’m not in or from MN, and have no idea if the Star Tribune is standing against or has bowed to fascism, as other outlets have, or how their stance (if they have one) may influence their reporting. Always be a critical thinker and reader.)

@inthehands another video from a different angle has emerged, which Aaron Parnas says he has confirmed is from the “woman in pink” (she can be seen in the original video). I share this update because it’s been reported and people are worried that she has been detained by ICE who would likely also destroy her video. I don’t know her status, but the video appears to be available to see. I’m not going to link to it. It’s horrible. I hope she is okay.

According to Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison:
ICE is blocking MN investigators from the crime scene. The MN National Guard is on the way to force ICE to let investigators in.
(NB: Still trying to find a confirmed source for this; I have no further info yet)
UPDATE: Source for this is somebody at the scene who heard Ellison say it in conversation. Source is likely reliable person, but may have incomplete info. This is a big game of telephone right now, so don’t treat this as authoritative in any way.
@inthehands We are at war.

Trump admin now claiming ICE was scared and threatened and murdered this man in self-defense.
Please keep in mind the post below.
Please keep in mind that they lied their asses off •relentlessly• about murdering Renee Good.
Please don’t believe a word that comes out of these people’s mouths, and push back on every news outlet that treat their statement with even a drop of credulousness.

Attached: 1 image This is not an isolated incident. Cops lie about what happened all the time. It’s worth reading again (or at all if you never have before, but make sure you’re sitting down) how the Minneapolis police first described the murder of George Floyd, before they knew there was video: 3/

LMAO. "Being scared" is part of law enforcement's job. That's why training is so important: how to properly handle a weapon, how to handle an adrenaline rush with a loaded weapon in your hand, how to manage a crowd and de-escalate violence, etc.
DHS and ICE, which means Trump and Miller don't give a shit. They intentionally hire unvetted incompetents with virtually no training, but with full combat armor and weapons, at a civilian population and tell them to enforce obedience.

️ Twin Cities residents️Citywide vigil, on every block
7:00pm tonight
There is no central gathering location, to prevent further ICE / DHS targeting. Vigil location is wherever you are.
Please contact your nearby neighbors now and spread the word. We want the whole city showing up. This has to end.
@inthehands Proud of you here in NY.

@inthehands Someone in one of my groups reported seeing 7-8 national guard vehicles on 62.

I want to emphasize: the graphic details of what ICE did this morning are •extremely• disturbing. It is important to know what is happening, but that does not necessarily mean having every traumatic detail burned into your brain. Please take care of yourself, and be mindful of how you absorb details as they emerge.
@inthehands it never gets easier hearing the Crack of that first shot going off.

@inthehands@hachyderm.io Agree - please use CWs for the gory details or pictures/videos so everyone can decide for themself

@inthehands
Democratic Senators be aware:
If you do not vote NO on resolutions that fund ICE, you have NO political future.@knowattitude @inthehands they not only have no political future, they have no future PERIOD.
That is sufficient evidence to convict of providing direct aid and committing crimes against humanity. -

@inthehands From the press conference a bit ago on cspan, General Mankey made it sound like the national guard were being called in to assist the Hennepin County Sheriff in, among other things, protecting the Whipple building, and are mobilizing additional national guard at this time.
They also confirm feds abandoned the scene to local law enforcement who in turn abandoned it to protestors.

@inthehands Huh. Odds of insurrection act just skyrocketed.
@SharpCheddarGoblin @inthehands
Trump wants an excuse to invoke the Insurrection Act and thereby be able to cancel the midterms. Don't take the bait.

@inthehands “We know that they are lying, they know that they are lying, they even know that we know they are lying, we also know that they know we know they are lying too, they of course know that we certainly know they know we know they are lying too as well, but they are still lying. In our country, the lie has become not just moral category, but the pillar industry of this country.”

@huntingdon @inthehands Bovino claimed that the person who killed Alex had 8 years experience, so lack of training is not really the issue here

Possibly with regard to one shooting. But the agency culture that enabled it, from Trump-Miller to Bovino and on down?

@huntingdon @inthehands I'm referring both to this shooting and Renee Good's shooting-- her killer had 10 years of experience. The "they need more training" narrative is entirely bullshit
