Crazy scene in Rochester this morning. ICE showed up to arrest a roofing crew working on a house. They refused to get down from the roof. Residents / community leaders gathered to protest. Lawyers demanded warrants. ICE agents eventually left.

Per Monroe Co. lawmaker Barnhart:

But someone slashed the CPB truck tires so they haven’t been able to leave.

Just don't provoke these rabid pitbull "brownshirts" to the point where you are in a "Kent State Massacre" scenario. tr💩mp via his brownshirts," is attempting to provoke an armed response. Then he can invoke the Insurrection Act, and declare Martial Law. That would immediately suspend the Constitution, and if continued long enough, the 2026 Midterms. This is likely tr💩mp's endgame. Don't give him a legal reason to do that.

rising to extraordinary circumstances when faced with a challenge! The ultimate source of power in a democracy really does lie with the people and this incident bears that out. The next No Kings protest slated for October 18th is hoping for 11million people to show people power. I hope it exceeds that number. Thank you so much for posting this!!

too. Dox them.

If we could get the bounties eliminated and put these agents on salary, I bet their work would slow to a crawl.

I hope the roofers had water up there.

All of them. Make the Gestapo work for it, while being chased down the street by the residents.
