How does the rest of America ever begin to thank the citizens [View all]

of Minneapolis or Minnesota in general for their courage and endurance in standing up to ICE and all of Trump's Federal Government Goonies that inflicted this crap on their city. They are out there, day after day, in freezing temperatures, getting abused and shot at by psycho agents and they don't back down.

They are not only fighting for their neighborhoods, their city and their state, they are making a difference for all us facing this tyranny under Trump. And they are winning in changing the narrative and the hearts and minds of Americans. They are making a difference - for all of us.

I want to send them a truckload of hot coffee, tea, soup or stew. I want to give warm hugs to the victims and the families of all who have suffered under this hostile takeover of their lives. I want to say THANK YOU but those words aren't enough. I know that I will never forget what they have done for America. You are all such incredible people.
