Is Defend612 DFL's domestic terrorist organization?

Starting immediately, Minnesotans should ask DFL politicians if they support Defend612, an organization that "seeks to support 'resistance to the ICE occupation in Minneapolis,' is promoting two virtual sessions titled 'The People’s Pardon or Jury Nullification,' scheduled in the coming weeks." Jury nullification is illegal because of the oath jurors take before getting seated before trial.

As such, teaching people how to break the law is itself breaking the law. Alpha News reports "A Minneapolis-based activist network is now openly advertising 'jury nullification training,' raising new concerns about the integrity of jury trials in the Twin Cities. Defend612, which seeks to support 'resistance to the ICE occupation in Minneapolis,' is promoting two virtual sessions titled 'The People’s Pardon or Jury Nullification,' scheduled in the coming weeks."

The oath taken by jurors requires them not to formulate an opinion until all evidence has been presented by the prosecution and the defense. They can only start forming opinions once they reach the jury deliberation room.

In an email to supporters, Defend612 described the trainings as a means of "protecting our local heroes through Jury Nullification."

Jury nullification occurs when jurors vote to acquit a defendant despite believing the law was broken, often because they oppose the law itself or how it is enforced.

Last month, Alpha News reported on a Minnesota Democratic Party official urging his followers to use jury nullification in a federal case involving an assault against an immigration enforcement officer. Nick Kruse, a former vice president of the Minnesota Young DFL and current at-large director of Stonewall DFL, wrote in a since-deleted post on X that "no one should be going to prison for defending our city against ICE."

That version of Lady Justice isn't blindfolded. It's prejudiced from the start, making justice impossible. Notice the wording in this interview:

This interviewee called Renee Good's death an "assassination." That isn't justice. That's prejudice. Further, that's prejudice from a 'jury' of a single person.

To Tom Homan:

Is this the action of a domestic terrorist?

Proof that Tim Walz doesn't care about fraud or other crime

Anyone that thinks that Tim Walz, Minnesota's DFL governor, doesn't care about preventing crime or fraud hasn't read this article . Alpha News is reporting that "The Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS) has confirmed that Dylan Adams, the fiscal policy analyst caught on video vandalizing Teslas in Minneapolis, is still employed by the state — meaning Minnesota taxpayers are footing the bill for his salary. In response to Alpha News inquiries, a DHS spokesperson said: "Dylan Adams is a current employee." Apparently, the Walz administration doesn't care that it's employing a vandal in its Department of Human Services. As for whether Adams "has faced consequences for racking up more than $21,000 in damage during work hours , the agency offered little transparency. 'No public data exists with respect to disciplinary action,' the spokesperson said." This reminds me of the old phrase I coined, which says 'It's impossible to...

Tim Walz doubling down on Gestapo speech

Image
When Tim Walz, Minnesota's DFL governor, delivered the commencement address for the University of Minnesota Law school, he didn't deliver the typical commencement speech. He delivered a highly partisan speech instead. Gov. Walz compared "federal law enforcement agents implementing President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown to a Nazi-era political police force." He called ICE agents Gestapo. Let's compare the 2. The Gestapo's mission was to rid Germany of Jews. To the Gestapo, it didn't matter that these Jews were German citizens and had been decades. Thanks to the Aryan Clauses, Jews were considered subhuman and weren't really Germans. That's an awfully racist viewpoint. Is Gov. Walz accusing law enforcement officers of being racists? I.C.E. I.C.E. agents enforce laws that bipartisan majorities in both houses of Congress have passed and that the president has signed. These immigration bills were negotiated between the 2 parties. The Aryan Clau...
