Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) demanded federal officers vacate the state after agents shot and killed a second person in Minneapolis on Saturday. “Donald Trump, I call on you once again: Remove…
Cut power to their buildings and to the hotels they’re staying. Now that it’s super cold out. Threaten them with freezing. Then order a slow as fuck inquiry to find out why there is no power and clutch your pearls.
If he and the mayor really care, why don’t they use city police to enforce the laws ICE and CBP are violating on a daily basis? They may have federal immunity but they are committing state crimes in broad daylight like it’s going out of style. Arrest some criminals like you’re supposed to. Not an all-out war between police forces, just, you know, regular law enforcement.
Walz has the power and authority to simply call up the National Guard, which he rightfully commands, and say “Hey keep ICE out of the city.” Same with the cops.
The president can send orders to deploy the NG here or there, but he doesn’t have control over their orders or what they’re supposed to be doing exactly. That still falls to governors. And the Minnesota national guard command has already indicated that they would follow orders from the governor and uphold the constitution over the president. And there’s absolutely no love between the Minneapolis police and ICE.
I don’t know why we’re not actually acting likes States. We’re “United States” not one big, single state called “America.” States have the power, the Federal Government works for the states.
It seems likely to me he/ dems know this will tip off a civil war and they are still hoping to find a different way of dealing with this. Something less bloody. No decent person wants to make the choice that is the final straw before thousands die. Also, even if they recognize it to be inevitable it is necessary to wait until the masses are aligned. The way you-and all the rest of us- are getting fed up is a sign the fruit is almost ripe.
Or they could just be compromised cowards. It doesn’t really matter actually, at some point the tide will flood the city streets and then someone will show up to lead.
Nobody with half a brain thinks an actual civil war is happening in the next several decades at least, but the idea holds that they think there’s a “high road” that will lead to everyone getting along and being civil to each other, and most importantly to them, establishment democrats keeping their positions of secured power with their old money and new donors.
Civil unrest is absolutely going to get worse and worse, but that’s not what the current DNC leadership cares at all about, if you follow the money you realize that there’s only one political party and they’re doing a kayfabe act to keep people hooked on the drama and narrative, despite actual lives being lost as a consequence.
Their only actual fear right now is that we sweep out the incumbent democrat leadership this November.

If you genuinely want to disrupt them, you can.
Otherwise STFU with the rhetorical posturing.
Lead or get out of the way. Enough.

Democrats have more to gain from ICE shooting people than Trump does.
