"The best defense is to double down on documentation. Those who can afford the personal risk should keep filming. And those who can’t risk being on the front lines can support those doing the documenting in other ways ... Videos captured by bystanders in Minneapolis have already allowed news outlets to debunk the government’s claims that agents shot Mr. Pretti because he was brandishing a gun":

John Fugelsang: "For months ICE has been terrorizing people in houses of worship, making arrests on church property, waving guns at clergy, and detaining refugee families on their way to prayer. The Republican Party made church unsafe. When ICE storms churches, Evangelical leaders are silent. Jesus was crucified by state violence. ICE commits state violence. White Evangelicalism looks at that contradiction and says: 'Seems fine'.”

"After the past three weeks of brutality in Minneapolis, it should no longer be possible to say that the Trump administration seeks merely to govern this nation. It seeks to reduce us all to a state of constant fear — a fear of violence from which no one will ever be truly safe. That is our new national reality. State terror has arrived":

"This administration’s mass deportation crusade is harming all of us, serving as the ‘tip of the spear’ for a broader assault on the rights and civil liberties of all Americans. In particular, the culture of impunity, chaos, and cruelty that is embodied by ICE and on display in Minneapolis and beyond is a sign of an administration and agency that’s off the rails and in desperate need of accountability":
