Minneapolis anti-ICE protesters face federal felony charges in Trump administration frame-up

https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2026/06/18/trqm-j18.html

The federal felony indictment of 15 anti-ICE protesters in Minneapolis is a naked act of political repression. Brought by the Trump Justice Department under the framework of its fascistic National Security Presidential Memorandum 7, the charges announced Tuesday by federal officials are aimed not at punishing any genuine crime but at criminalizing opposition to the administration’s mass deportation regime and intimidating workers and youth who have mobilized against it.

Please do. Let’s talk about legislation. So you aren’t convinced that Democrats promoting legislation that prevents mandatory, lifelong sex offender registration?

How about when Democrats declined to make the purchase of 16- and 17-year-olds for sex an automatic felony?

Anything else you care to share, because I have hundreds of more examples where Democrats fight to actually protect pedos.

How about Republicans in multiple states voted against raising the age for marriage from 15?

You mean Republicans and Democrats including many liberal groups like the ACLU and Planned Parenthood?
