"it is a campaign of organized brutality against the people of Minnesota by our own federal government.”
DOJ's Birkenau Barbie is exceedingly pissed that six federal prosecutors quit rather than be part of the rampant asshattery of the DOJ and DHS:
> "Attorney General Pam Bondi lashed out at six federal prosecutors who reportedly resigned after refusing to prosecute the widow of Renee Nicole Good, the Minnesota woman killed last week by an ICE officer.
> "Six career federal prosecutors don’t just walk away from their jobs lightly. Especially not people who’ve spent decades inside the Justice Department, handling some of the most complex fraud cases in the country. So when six prosecutors in Minnesota resign in a single day, there’s a problem.
At the center of this is the killing of Renee Nicole Good, a Minneapolis woman shot by an ICE agent. In moments like this, the expectation is straightforward: you investigate the use of deadly force, transparently, independently and with the goal of determining whether the law was followed. That’s how trust is built. Instead, the Justice Department chose to forgo a civil rights investigation into the shooting — a decision so alarming that several career prosecutors in the Civil Rights Division in Washington resigned in protest." https://thehill.com/opinion/lindseys-lens/5689158-minneapolis-ice-agent-resignation/

“Accountability is coming, at the voting booth and in court."
I can't express my joy at hearing Gov Walz talk accountability over the Fulvous Fuckwad talking about affordability... he's totally, completely, indubitably ignorant of what the word means (the same applies to accountability).
OT - I'm sure this was probably shared somewhere here earlier, but I'm just now reading about it. I hope the staff at least took a piss (or worse) in their food before they served them.
ICE agents ate meal at a Minnesota Mexican restaurant – then arrested the staff who worked there
Things are not good here in Minnesota. I was at a brewpub last night and talked to the proprietress. She says most Mexican restaurants and bodegas are shut down, and it is spreading to all the hospitality industries, all of which have back rooms full of Latino workers. It really feels like a state of siege. Fuck these fascists and their ICE Einsatzgruppen to the moon and back.
I have no doubt that they've already tipped him off as to which way they're going to vote. It doesn't sound good for him. This is equivalent to reading the note aloud.
T💩p's flying monkeys are now attacking the school that Renee Good's six-year-old son attends. I guess it wasn't enough to murder his mom, now they want to murder his school. Ghouls.
That woman from Minnesota sounds *exactly* like my aunt - not only the accent, but what she’s saying and the way she’s saying it. Hell, she even kind of looks like my aunt. I should maybe check in with her…

“We had six prosecutors who suddenly decided they didn’t want to support the men and women in ICE,” said Bondi, as she visibly fumed Thursday on Fox News’ “Hannity.” “One of them was busy doing a photo shoot with The New York Times while ICE was out there risking their lives.” https://www.huffpost.com/entry/pam-bondi-prosecutors-quit-renee-good_n_69690cb5e4b0774cc19f404a

These racists like Mexican food, just not "Mexicans".
People who live in Mpls/St Paul metro don't actually have this strong an accent, but this lady still makes me miss my home town.
"Impersonating a police officer" would be an excellent place for the local cops to start.
Would also accept "impersonating a well-rounded human person"
That, possibly unfortunately, is not a crime.
