Kristi Noem calls actions leading up to ICE shooting ‘an act of domestic terrorism’

5 months ago by return2ozma to c/news

A woman is dead after being shot by a federal agent during an ICE operation Wednesday morning in south Minneapolis. Kristi Noem, the U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security, called the woman's actions leading up to the shooting "an act of domestic terrorism."

This is the way. Take their words at face value - but just the ones that you like. Repeat them like a parrot. Embellish them. Make up stories.

Facts truly don't care about felings. But a lie repeated oft enough effectively acts like the truth.

Use their weapon against them.

To convince idiots, sometimes you have to play by idiotic rules.

And for the bootlickers out there: No, I'm not saying OC is lying or an idiot by any means. I feel like I have to spell this out precisely because of the unreasonableness of the times we live in. Some bootlicking facehugger is bound to come and take the most unreasonable interpretation of my words and sink thei facehugging claws into my mouth. Maybe not right here or right now, but inevitably time and time again.

He wasn't even appointed to investigate by Merrick Garland until nearly 18 months after he took office, which was already 2 months after the Insurrection.

"Principled" is the wrong word. "Naive" might be better. "Cowardly" with rationalization could work.

They believed it would damage the country to have a jury of 12 put Trump in prison rather than a jury of 375 million. It would damage the country. The best possible outcome was Dems win the election and then Trump sees justice. Intolerance bring fascisms, so they fought fascism with tolerance. This is the result of their actions AND our actions.

It was convenient to pass the buck onto the American voters because it meant they didn't have to do anything.

Yes, Biden or Harris being in office now would protect us from US colonialism turning inward.

But that wouldn't stop the US's foreign policy.

I'm not saying that Biden or Harris would have entered a war with Venezuela or bombed Iran, but maybe Israel would have become more of an attack dog in the Middle East and started killing more Syrians, Lebanese, Jordanians, and last but not least Palestinians.

Hard to say what would happen internationally with Biden or Harris. Domestically, we'd likely be in a better spot, at least until Trump would try to take office in 2028 (if we didn't throw his ass in jail by that point).

No one yet has complete and reliable data for the number of ICE and other deportations in 2025. But there has been an analysis of ICE flight data that showed a 62% increase in the number of deportations-related flights in 2025 compared to 2024, as of September:

The ICE arrest data also shows a steep rise in 2025:

So an affiliate means that it's a different company that owns a TV station, but they have affiliation with a certain network and carry all or parts of their programming. In Theory the affiliating company, in this case fox, doesn't have any oversight of the TV station company. In theory. So a Fox affiliate Channel would show things like shows produced by fox, sporting events produced by Fox, and maybe certain other special programs. However they would still have their own local programming as well, mainly local news.

Welcome to the News community!

Rules:

1. Be civil

Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.


2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.

Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.

Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.

Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.


5. Only recent news is allowed.

Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.


6. All posts must be news articles.

No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.


7. No duplicate posts.

If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.


8. Misinformation is prohibited.

Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.


9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.

All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.


10. Don't copy entire article in your post body

For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
