Want to make an ICE agent angry? Shouting Nazi at them didn’t faze them at all.

Former law enforcement witness: in Minneapolis, ICE chased and beat people for singing and using words, detained them without charges or medical care, escalating on anyone filming. You can’t defend the Constitution and excuse this.
#theexistentialistrepublic #softseccession #AbolishICE #Minneapolis
Former law enforcement perspective: Minneapolis felt like the Constitution was gone—peaceful people detained without charges, intimidation for filming, officers escalating daily. I saw it over and over again.

Hopeful we’re seeing the “immune system” of the country finally activate — meaning everyday people stepping up. #softseccession #AntiCorruptionCompact #RestoreTheImmuneSystem #TheExistentialistRepublic
