There were multiple protests Saturday around the Bay Area expressing rage over the killing of a Minneapolis mother of three at the hands of an ICE agent with a gun, including a gathering at Ocean Beach to spell out another aerially photographed message.
There have been multiple human-spelled messages on Ocean Beach, photographed via drone, in protest of Donald Trump and the actions of his dispicable administration. And there was another Saturday in which hundreds spelled out the message “IT WAS MURDER – ICE OUT!!” with an upside-down American flag.
Previous human banners like this have taken place for No Kings Day protests, and there was a “Yes on 50” human banner at Ocean Beach in mid-October, prior to the November election.
As the Chronicle reports, there was a simultaneous protest Saturday that attracted hundreds at the intersection of Van Ness Avenue and O’Farrell Street, with plenty of anti-Trump signage. And a third protest took shape in the Mission District as well.
The Trump administration and its fans have continued to promulgate the narrative that Good was a “paid agitator” of some kind — and your Xitter feed, if you still have one, is likely full of such messages. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem wasted no time after the killing to cast Good as a “domestic terrorist.”
Good, along with her lesbian partner, had just dropped off Good’s youngest son, who is six, at elementary school, when the encounter with ICE occurred. It’s not clear how her vehicle came to be blocking the road, but it did not appear to be a pre-planned encounter with federal agents.
Good’s ex-husband, who asked that his name be kept out of the press, told the Associated Press that she was “no activist” and he had never known her to participate in any sort of protest. She and her wife, Becca Good, had recently relocated to Minneapolis from Kansas City, Missouri.
Becca Good put out a statement, per Minnesota Public Radio, saying, “On Wednesday, January 7th, we stopped to support our neighbors. We had whistles. They had guns.”
The statement also said that Renee Good was “made of sunshine,” and “Renee was a Christian who knew that all religions teach the same essential truth: we are here to love each other, care for each other, and keep each other safe and whole.”
Donald Trump just gave an unlawful order. And this time, the military didn’t comply.
According to new reporting, Trump ordered US special forces commanders to begin drawing up plans to invade Greenland. Not negotiate. Not expand basing agreements. Not coordinate with allies. Invade. Senior military officials immediately pushed back, warning that such an order would be illegal and would never receive congressional approval. That resistance may be the only thing standing between the United States and a catastrophic foreign policy disaster right now.
What makes this moment especially disturbing is that it didn’t come out of nowhere. For months, the Trump administration and its allies have been laying the groundwork to erase a basic principle of American military law: that service members are not required to follow unlawful orders. When Democratic lawmakers reminded troops of that fact, they were attacked and accused of undermining the military. At the same time, Trump’s inner circle was doing something very intentional. They were conditioning the public and the ranks to believe that there is no such thing as an unlawful order when it comes from the president.
Pete Hegseth spent months insisting that questioning orders was dangerous and unpatriotic. JD Vance openly called the War Powers Act fake and unconstitutional, arguing that presidents should be able to launch wars without congressional approval. That rhetoric wasn’t academic. It was preparation. And now we’re seeing exactly what they were preparing for.
After the administration convinced itself that its operation to capture Venezuela’s leader was a success, Trump’s advisers reportedly became emboldened. The thinking appears to be simple: move fast, act aggressively, and seize territory before anyone can stop you. Greenland suddenly became the next target. Katie Miller posting “soon” alongside an image of Greenland draped in an American flag wasn’t subtle. It was a signal.
Trump himself has now said the quiet part out loud. He stated that the United States would do something with Greenland whether they like it or not. That phrasing is revealing. It shows how he understands power. Consent is irrelevant. Sovereignty is optional. Smaller nations exist to be taken if they can’t resist.
The justification he’s using doesn’t hold up to even basic scrutiny. Trump claims that the US must act before Russia or China “takes over” Greenland. That is not how reality works. Greenland is part of Denmark. Denmark is a NATO member. Any invasion would immediately trigger Article 5. The United States already has troops stationed in Greenland with full cooperation from our allies. There is no emergency, no vacuum, and no credible threat requiring an invasion.
So why float something this reckless?
Multiple diplomats believe Trump is trying to distract from a failing domestic agenda and a weakening economy ahead of the midterms. Republicans are divided, congressional control is slipping, and Trump is edging closer to becoming a lame duck. When his power at home erodes, he lashes out abroad. We’ve seen this pattern before. He sues the media. He militarizes blue cities. He escalates overseas. Chaos becomes a substitute for competence.
One of the most chilling details in the reporting is what happened when military leaders resisted the Greenland plan. According to sources, they attempted to distract Trump by proposing less controversial alternatives, including intercepting Russian ghost ships or even launching a strike on Iran. Let that sink in. The invasion of Greenland wasn’t treated as unthinkable. It was treated as one option among several. The only reason it didn’t move forward is because senior officials refused to carry out an illegal order.
That should alarm everyone.
European allies are now openly discussing worst-case scenarios where Trump’s actions fracture NATO from the inside. Some officials believe this may be the point. If Trump can’t legally withdraw from NATO, provoking a crisis that forces allies to abandon it achieves the same result. Occupying Greenland could do exactly that. Start with threats, escalate fear, then demand concessions. That isn’t diplomacy. It’s coercion.
This story isn’t really about Greenland. It’s about whether the rule of law still applies to the president of the United States. It’s about whether the military remains loyal to the Constitution rather than a single man. And it’s about how close we are to watching a sitting president try to manufacture a war to save himself politically.
Al Jazeera English Sep 3, 2025 With tears and chants of “Free, Free Palestine” and the waving of Palestinian flags, the true-life drama, The Voice of Hind Rajab, recounting the final plea of a six-year-old Gaza girl who was brutally killed by the Israeli forces in Gaza City last year, received a more than 23-minute standing ovation at its premiere at the iconic Venice Film Festival. At Wednesday’s premiere, the emotional docu-drama focuses on recordings from the Palestinian Red Crescent Society, which tried for hours to reassure six-year-old Rajab as she lay trapped in a car where her aunt, uncle and three cousins were killed by Israeli fire in early 2024.
Voters packed an auditorium in the basement of the UC Law San Francisco campus Wednesday night, where three candidates running for California’s 11th congressional district gathered to explain why they were the right person to succeed Rep. Nancy Pelosi.Ali Wunderman/Special to The Examiner
Some say San Francisco’s nightlife is lacking, but for those engaged in local politics, there is no shortage of things to do after dark.
The place to be Wednesday night was a packed auditorium in the basement of the UC Law San Francisco campus, where three candidates running for California’s 11th congressional district gathered, each one explaining why they were the right person to succeed Rep. Nancy Pelosi.
This wasn’t just a chance to hear from the candidates — state Sen. Scott Weiner; Saikat Chakrabarti, a former tech worker and chief of staff to U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York; and District 1 Supervisor Connie Chan — hoping to fill the considerably large shoes of one of the most accomplished legislators in American history.
It was also the first time such a forum had been assembled in San Francisco since Pelosi won a special election to the House of Representatives in 1987.
So it’s probably no surprise that a line began forming outside the building two hours prior to the event kicking off.
More than 2,000 people RSVPd to the event, with at least 650 people filling out the auditorium and nearby overflow space at Beer Hall, and more than 1,000 attendees watching live via Discord.Ali Wunderman/Special to The Examiner
Ritchey wasn’t the only one to feel that way. More than 2,000 people RSVPed to the event, with at least 650 people filling out the auditorium and nearby overflow space at Beer Hall, and more than 1,000 attendees watching live via Discord.
Guests still in line were turned away once the spaces reached capacity, but, “most were happy that it meant people care,” Ritchey said.
For the candidates, the bustling crowd reflected The City’s pastime of civic engagement.
“Those are my people,” Wiener laughed, reflecting on his own history of attending political events for fun. “San Francisco is potentially the most politically engaged city on the planet. They care about politics and government.”
Whether people like what he’s doing or not, Weiner says he appreciates that the community pays attention to what he’s working on in the state capitol.
Chakrabarti said he felt motivated by the turnout, saying it’s awesome that this is the moment we’re in right now.
“It inspires me about the stuff I’m pitching, which is a little bigger — saying we need systemic change, to have a political revolution,” he said.
San Franciscans will head to the polls to decide Pelosi’s congressional seat, hot ballot measures and more
While politics are deeply intertwined with San Francisco’s social identity — I ran into a number of friends at the event — fun wasn’t the main goal of attending the historic forum.
“I’m here to listen,” said Kiki Lopez, a transgender-rights activist and advocate particularly keen on hearing the candidates’ respective plans for the transgender community, especially trans people of color.
For Bianca Polovina, president of IFPTE Local 21, the forum was a chance to support Chan, Polovina’s preferred candidate.
“I live out in the Richmond district, and I feel like she’s the candidate that’s right for us in this moment,” Polovina said, emphasizing how critical this election is for protecting The City’s values. “I’m looking for a fighter for San Francisco, someone who’s going to stand up for regular working people who are living paycheck to paycheck.”

On stage, the forum proceeded without too many surprises, a couple of light jabs thrown here and there, and about 75% of the audience sticking around until the end of the two-hour discussion.
Questions revolved largely around issues specific to San Francisco, such as fighting for LGBTQ rights and why President Donald Trump is so very impeachable. There wasn’t much disagreement or challenge to be found — no asking Chakrabarti about wanting to take on the ultra-rich while himself being worth nearly $200 million; no questioning Supervisor Chan’s past behavior towards constituents giving public comment.
Were I at the front of the room, I would have inquired less about their ideologies that most San Franciscans already share, and delved more into how they plan to bring those grand ideas to life — the way Pelosi did throughout her career.
For example:
• How do you plan to reach across the aisle in Washington D.C. and work with Republicans to protect San Francisco values?
• Describe a time when you did something politically risky or unpopular — like publicly disagreeing with the mayor.
• How will you unite San Franciscans warring over nuances in shared ideology so we can instead fight the totalitarian coup that is currently underway?
From where I was sitting, there was no clear winner, but there were some solid takeaways: Weiner’s bonafides and ability to pass legislation are unmatched; Supervisor Chan is ready to fight at the highest level; newcomer Chakrabarti is a serious contender for the role.
Still, the real headline of the night wasn’t any single answer; it was the crowd itself. If this forum was a preview of the race ahead, it suggests that whoever replaces Pelosi won’t just inherit a powerful seat — they’ll inherit a city that expects to be taken seriously and is ready to show up to ensure that happens.

The first major face-off Wednesday in the race to succeed Rep. Nancy Pelosi centered on how each contender thinks power should be wielded and what kind of leader San Francisco needs in a Congress mired in dysfunction.
Why it matters: The packed event highlights how California’s 11th Congressional District race is shaping up to be San Francisco’s most consequential open-seat House contest in decades, featuring three candidates of varying shades of Democrat blue.
Pelosi’s successor will inherit a role defined not just by its deep-blue electorate, but by an expectation of influence that comes at a time when Congress is fractured and Democrats remain split over how to confront a second Trump presidency.
State of play: In an election defying the typical partisan battles for national seats, the three candidates mainly sparred over how to approach issues they largely agree on.
During the hours-long debate, more than 500 residents cramped inside a UC Law (formerly Hastings) auditorium near Civic Center, where the eager hopefuls answered questions on their policy priorities, governing styles and track records.
The big picture: The forum felt like a political speed-dating sesh, each competing to distinguish themselves in tightly-timed bursts.
They broadly agreed on marquee progressive priorities — backing universal health care, curbing PG&E’s grip and endorsing changes to the Supreme Court and impeachment proceedings against President Trump.
The fault lines emerged in a rapid-fire yes-or-no segment when Chan and Chakrabarti raised “Yes” signs in response to a question about Israel’s actions in Gaza being labeled as “genocide.” Wiener — who is Jewish — hesitated to answer, prompting audible opposition from the crowd.
Wiener later told reporters the format flattened a complex issue. He maintained he doesn’t “support U.S. funding for the destruction of Palestinian communities” or Israel’s escalation of violence.
Between the lines: Chan — a progressive with a cautious approach to some housing developments and upzoning— positioned herself as a defender of the working class, advocate against billionaire power grabs and proponent of fiscal budgets that prioritize the needs of the most vulnerable.
“When federal government’s elected leadership fails to deliver for people, they feel dismissed,” she said. “We have to attack Trump and take back our country… but also deliver for the working people.”
Wiener, a pragmatist at heart, came armed with a legislative resumé, touting his ambitious policy-setting record around housing, healthcare, public transportation and LGBTQ+ rights.
He cast the seat as a command post — not an activist megaphone — leaning hard into Pelosi’s legacy: San Francisco needs a representative who knows how to confront Congress’ hostile terrain.
“It’s not enough just to have good opinions or a lot of hot takes or go on a lot of podcasts or spend six months on Capitol Hill,” he said in what appeared to be a veiled jab at Chakrabarti.
“You got to show that you are going to be up the task to build a broad-based coalition… MAGA doesn’t want me in D.C. because they know I know how to keep up. That’s what we need,” he added.
Chakrabarti, a political strategist and former Silicon Valley techie who has emerged as a prominent insurgent voice among Democrats (but has never held public office), channeled the anti-establishment “Feel the Bern” vibe espoused by politicians like AOC and NYC mayor Zohran Mamdani.
He quickly refuted Wiener’s claims against him before explaining his class-conscious, systemic overhaul plans and decreasing the cost-of-living, among other reform-driven priorities.
“We need to deliver a fundamentally better life-for-all and to do that, we need to perform major surgery on the entire system,” he said.
The bottom line: Voters will have much of this year to make up their mind on who will follow Pelosi, and a seasoned politician, a local progressive and a movement-minded disruptor will be fighting for those votes.
We need the response to this week’s killing and ongoing ICE violence to be loud, peaceful, and inescapable. So if you’re physically able, we need you to be out in the streets.
ICE can’t function without help from the private sector. So we should force the private sector to stop helping.
Jan 9, 2026
By Eric Blanc, Claire Sandberg, and Wes McEnany
Renee Nicole Good’s murder by an ICE agent in Minneapolis has left millions of Americans wondering how we can stop ICE from terrorizing our communities any further. There are many well-known ICE-fighting tactics that we can and should use, like protests, know-your-rights trainings, and neighborhood watches. But two recent victories show a promising, relatively underutilized path forward—one that deserves to be pursued further: we can target businesses to break from ICE.
ICE relies heavily on the private sector to help carry out its Gestapo-like crusade against immigrants and their allies. Without the logistical, financial, and political support of business, its capacity to terrorize our communities would crumble.
Over the past week, activists around the country successfully pushed Avelo Airlines to stop running deportation charter flights, and workers in Minneapolis pushed a local Hilton affiliate to stop renting rooms to ICE agents. But these wins are just a fraction of what could be achieved if the millions of people who are outraged by ICE’s thuggery organize to pressure all companies to stop working with ICE.

Trump’s Pillars of Support
Anti-authoritarian scholars and organizers stress that the most important thing for pro-democracy movements to do is to peel away a regime’s “pillars of support.” Even the most despotic of regimes can’t rule without the backing or consent of powerful external institutions. Businesses are society’s most important non-state institutions, and most of the biggest ones in America are collaborating with Trump, making themselves a very steady pillar of support for his rule.
These mega-corporations have immense financial and political power. It may seem like there’s nothing to be done to bring them to heel. But the successes with Avelo Airlines and the Minneapolis Hilton—as well as earlier pressure campaigns like the #Tesla Takedown, the fight to force Disney to rehire Jimmy Kimmel, and the boycott of Target over its Trump-friendly anti-DEI moves—show the immense leverage that consumers and workers have when provided an opportunity. We are not powerless, and there are concrete actions anyone can take to start eroding Trump’s support from big business.
Consumer pressure campaigns can start with petition gathering and social media callouts, then escalate to coordinated one-day boycotts. Workers have even more leverage: employees can circulate internal petitions calling on their CEOs to cut ties with ICE and organize collective actions like sick-outs.
Tactics can include rallies in front of targeted stores, flyering customers about a company’s ICE contracts or collaboration, and nonviolent civil disobedience that makes clear that business as usual won’t stand. Other creative ideas include setting up anonymous tip lines for employees to whistleblow on non-public ICE collaborations, pressuring job sites like Monster.com and Indeed to stop featuring ICE job listings, asking local small businesses to post “Immigrants Welcome Here” placards, and writing online reviews calling out companies’ collaboration with ICE.
The key is providing people with concrete, outwards-facing activities they can take right now, while building an escalating national campaign that can culminate in larger coordinated days of nonviolent disruption—for example, on May 1, 2026.
National online mass calls and trainings can give large numbers of people the tools they need to get started. National unions, immigrant rights groups, and organizations like Indivisible and the Democratic Socialists of America can leverage their volunteer activists and resources to help launch and support the campaign. And high-profile politicians like Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Chris Murphy, and Zohran Mamdani can use their platforms to build momentum around this urgent fight.
Corporate Targets
The most strategic corporate targets fall into three categories: low-lift national targets, high-lift national targets, and local targets.
Low-lift national targets are mostly public-facing companies with relatively small ICE contracts that are set to expire soon, making them particularly vulnerable to consumer and employee pressure. Campaigns against companies like these can play a crucial role in generating further momentum against ICE, Trump, and their worst corporate collaborators.
Here are some examples:
Dell ($18.8 million contract with ICE for Microsoft software licenses, expiring March 2026)
UPS ($90,500 small package delivery contract with ICE, expiring March 2026)
FedEx ($1 million delivery services contract with ICE, expiring March 2026)
Motorola Solutions ($15.6 million tactical communication infrastructure contract with ICE, expiring May 2026)
Comcast ($24,600 internet services contract for ICE Seattle office, expiring May 2026 — this could be a great fight for new mayor Katie Wilson to take on).
AT&T ($83 million IT and network contract with ICE, with a potential end date of July 2032).
LexisNexis ($21 million data-brokerage contract with ICE — this company is particularly vulnerable to pressure from university students and professor unions, since much of its revenue comes from colleges.)
Home Depot and Lowe’s are using AI-powered license plate readers and feeding this data into law enforcement surveillance systems accessible to ICE. Their parking lots are also regular sites of ICE raids targeting day laborers.
High-lift national targets have deeper relationships with ICE, and will be harder to pressure. But two in particular need to be tackled.
Amazonprovides ICE with the digital backbone for its data and surveillance operations through Amazon Web Services. Amazon’s Whole Foods stores are a rich potential target for nonviolent disruption on big days of action.
Palantirprovides ICE with core data platforms that integrate and analyze information from many databases so agents can search, link, and manage deportation operations.
It will take longer to force these behemoths—the two worst corporate collaborators with ICE—to cut their ties, but it’s essential to publicize their centrality to Trump’s deportation machine.
Local targets can be found in communities across the country, where hundreds of smaller business have ICE contracts. Local activists can research and target these businesses—from contractors providing services to ICE offices to suppliers selling equipment—creating distributed pressure campaigns in every region where ICE operates. Hotels that rent rooms to ICE agents are particularly vulnerable targets, as the Minneapolis example demonstrated, and hospitality unions can play a key role in these campaigns.
Defend Immigrants, Defeat Trumpism
Breaking companies from ICE is a winnable struggle that can put serious pressure on the administration by raising the political cost of mass deportations and damaging ICE’s ability to function. No administration can survive long without the consent of corporate America.
Obviously, the stakes are highest for our undocumented friends and family members. But this fight impacts all of us. To stop Trump’s authoritarian oligarchy, we need millions of people — well beyond our normal circles of activists — to join the fight.
Who is going to stop Trump from invading more countries and stealing the 2026 and 2028 elections if not a mass movement from below? Who is going to force politicians, whether Republicans or Democrats, to stand up for immigrant communities? Who is going to make corporations pay a price for collaborating with the Trump regime? We need to start building the organizing muscle and connective tissue now for widespread nonviolent disruption. Strategic organizing to win justice for all is the best way to honor the memory of Renee Nicole Good and the countless other victims of Trump’s inhumanity at home and abroad.

“They have literally started killing us—enough is enough,” said one campaigner.
Progressive advocacy groups are set to lead nationwide rallies this weekend to protest Wednesday’s killing of Renee Good by an immigration officer in Minneapolis and the Trump administration’s wider deadly mass deportation campaign.
Groups including 50501 Movement, Indivisible, the Disappeared in America campaign, MoveOn, the ACLU, Voto Latino, and United We Dream are planning demonstrations across the country to protest the killing of Good and what Indivisible called the “broader pattern of unchecked violence and abuse carried out by federal immigration enforcement agencies against members of our communities.”
More details about the events, including a growing list of demonstrations and rallies, is available here.
According to organizers, the goal of the weekend demonstrations will be to:
Honor and humanize the lives taken by ICE
Demand accountability, transparency, and an immediate investigation into the killing of Renee Nicole Good
Expose the broader pattern of ICE violence, including deaths in detention
Call for ICE to leave our communities
Build public pressure on elected officials and federal agencies
Create space for grief, solidarity, and collective action
Strengthen local connections and neighborhood response system
Good, a US citizen, was shot multiple times by veteran Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) deportation officer Jonathan Ross on Wednesday while driving in south Minneapolis. Bystander video shows Good slowly maneuvering a Honda Pilot SUV in an apparent effort to drive away from officers when Ross draws his pistol and fires at her head.
President Donald Trump and senior members of his administration quickly spread lies about Good, with the president saying she “ran over” Ross and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and others accusing the 37-year-old mother of three—one of whose children is now orphaned—of “domestic terrorism.”
“After ICE executed Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis and federal agents shot two more people in Portland, the 50501 Movement is demanding the immediate abolition of ICE,” 50501 said in a statement Friday. “Renee Nicole Good and the Portland victims are just the most recent victims of ICE’s reign of terror. ICE has brutalized communities for decades, but its violence under the Trump regime has accelerated.”
“Marginalized communities have taken the brunt of their force; in 2025, at least 32 people died in ICE custody,” 50501 added. “This past September, ICE shot and killed Silverio Villegas González, a father and cook from Mexico who was living in Chicago. In that same city, a Border Patrol agent celebrated after repeatedly shooting and injuring Marimar Martinez. The American people have had enough.”
The ACLU said in a statement that “an ICE agent killed Renee Nicole Good, a 37-year-old Minneapolis mother, shooting her three times in the head through her car window. This is a reckless, horrific shooting that should have never happened.”
“Renee’s killing came just one day after the Trump administration stormed Minnesota communities with an unprecedented 2,000 federal agents. Children are afraid to go to school and Minnesota families are reeling from fear and a sense of chaos,” the group continued. “For months, the Trump administration has been deploying heavily armed federal agents into our communities. They are smashing car windows, dragging people from their cars, zip-tying children, and physically harming our neighbors—citizens and noncitizens alike.”
“We can’t wait around while ICE harms more people,” the ACLU added. “Congress MUST demand an end to these reckless immigration raids, and oppose any bill that would add to ICE’s already massive budget.”
United We Dream said that Good’s “brutal killing is a horrifying reminder of the threat armed forces pose to our collective safety, especially at a time when local, state, and federal officials have consistently called on the federal government to invest in the resources working families truly need—healthcare, housing, access to food—instead of indiscriminate terror in our communities.”
“In 2025 alone, 32 people died in immigration detention,” the group added. “Billions poured into immigration raids for the sake of ripping apart communities in cities like Los Angeles, Chicago, and Minneapolis does nothing but lead to irreparable damage, violence, and death. We demand an immediate end to this cruelty and for elected leaders at every level to speak out in defense of immigrant communities and our shared safety.”
MoveOn argued that “the Trump administration is not making anybody safe—they are creating chaos and destroying lives.”
“You don’t raid peaceful cities, schools, libraries, and churches unless your goal is to terrorize communities and silence dissent,” the group added. “MoveOn is outraged and devastated that the unnecessary, reckless, and escalatory deployment of ICE is causing even more senseless killings. Trump’s ICE agents need to follow the advice of local officials and leave Minnesota immediately.”
Represent Maine, an “ICE out for Good” national coalition partner, said in a promotion for a Saturday noon rally in Augusta that “ICE’s campaign of terror is out of control and leading to the murder of our people.”
“Entire communities are being traumatized,” the group continued. “Immigrants, refugees, and American citizens are being targeted. This is not normal border enforcement: This is state violence.”
“We will gather to remember those who have been killed, kidnapped, and disappeared by ICE, and the families and communities devastated in their wake,” Represent Maine added. “We demand ICE out of Maine NOW!”
Dan Harmon of 50501 Minnesota said Friday, “They have literally started killing us—enough is enough.”
“We are a peaceful and community-oriented state that will not allow the violent ICE secret police to continue kidnapping our neighbors and killing our friends,” he said. “Immediately after the shooting, hundreds of Minnesotans gathered to respond on site, just as we did in 2020 after officer Derek Chauvin murdered George Floyd.”
“ICE must be removed from Minnesota and permanently abolished,” Harmon added.

The News Movement Dec 2, 2025 As soon as the Trump administration began its immigration crackdown in Chicago—known as Operation Midway Blitz—teenage brothers Ben and Sam Luhmann stepped up to the front lines. Armed with phone and body cameras, Ben and Sam patrol the Chicago suburbs in hopes of tracking ICE agents and filming raids they see as unwarranted and unjustified. The teens are both homeschooled, and dedicate five hours each day to help a rapid-response network of volunteers that documents ICE raids and assists families of those detained in the arrests.
