BOYCOTTS WORK!

STOP Home Depot ICE Raids

“If there’s a company most caught up in the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown, it’s Home Depot.” (NPR)

boycotthomedepot.network
HOME DEPOT keeps quiet on immigration raids outside its doors BOYCOTTS WORK STOP Home Depot ICE Raids Everyday, we open the news and see another immigration raid taking place on the premises of a Home Depot. Home Depot should be a place where everyone can buy what they need to make their homes safe, secure and beautiful. Instead, it has become a place of fear – a target for ICE operations against immigrant communities and workers. “If there’s a company most caught up in the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown, it’s Home Depot.” (1) Yet the company has remained silent while raids continue to unfold on its lots. That silence speaks volumes. Home Depot cannot claim to serve our communities while allowing federal agents to terrorize people on their property. It’s ALL OF US or NONE OF US Since the company has refused to act, it’s time for us to use our power as consumers. We are calling on Home Depot to take a stand: * Denounce ICE raids on their properties. * Declare their stores safe spaces. * Protect the people who make and shop in their stores everyday. Until then, we will use the power we know best and that corporations listen to – our collective wallets. https://boycotthomedepot.network/ (1) & Photo source:https://www.npr.org/2025/08/19/nx-s1-5504124/home-depot-earnings-immigration-raids-day-laborer

As long as Spotify is willing to take money from ICE, they don’t need (or deserve) free advertising for Spotify Wrapped: indivisible.org/cancel-spotify?source=bluesky
TOP & REASONS WHY ICE IS SPOTIFY'S #1 FAN 1) Spotify is running ICE ads in between your favorite songs 2) Spotify claims that ICE recruitment ads DID NOT violate it's ad policies 3) While ICE terrorizes communities, Spotify is helping boost their recruitment efforts 4) Spotify would rather be wrapped in complicity to ICE's terror than refuse ICE ad money indivisible.org/cancel-spotify

(next to a crossed out Home Depot logo) “Home Depot has allowed its parking lots to become ground zero for ICE raids on immigrant day laborers, and its billionaire co-founder Bernie Marcus has funneled millions into Trump's campaigns.” (next to a crossed out Target logo) “Target, which once branded itself as the friendly, inclusive big-box store, has now scrapped its DEl goals and scaled back LGBTQ+ offerings to avoid angering the regime.” (next to a crossed out Amazon logo) “Amazon didn't just shower Trump's inauguration with cash -- Jeff Bezos' company pitched facial-recognition tools to ICE and powers the Palantir systems ICE uses to track and deport immigrants, making Amazon a core contractor for the regime's deportation machine.”

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.

If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

We want to speak directly to members of the Military and the Intelligence Community.

The American people need you to stand up for our laws and our Constitution.

Don’t give up the ship.

DON'T GIVE UP THE SHIP https://www.instagram.com/reel/DRMxZAnlUF9/ TRANSCRIPT: I'm Senator Elissa Slotkin - Former CIA Officer I'm Senator Mark Kelly - Former US Navy Captain Representative Chris Deluzio - Former Navy Congresswoman Maggie Goodlander - Former Intelligence Office Representative Chrissy Houlahan - Former Air Force Congressman Jason Crow - Former Paratrooper and Army Ranger We want to speak directly to members of the military, and the intelligence community, who take risks each day to keep Americans safe. We know you are under enormous stress and pressure right now. Americans trust their military. But that trust is at risk. This administration is pitting our uniformed military and intelligence community professionals against American citizens. Like us, you all swore an oath to protect and defend this Constitution. Right now, the threats to our Constitution aren't just coming from abroad, but from right here at home. Our laws are clear: YOU CAN REFUSE ILLEGAL ORDERS. YOU MUST REFUSE ILLEGAL ORDERS. No one has to carry out orders that violate the law or our Constitution. We know this is hard, and that it's a difficult time to be a public servant. But whether you're serving in the CIA, the Army, our Navy, the Air Force, your vigilance is critical. And know that we have your back. Because now, more than ever, the American people need you. We need you to stand up for our laws, our Constitution, and who we are as Americans. DON'T GIVE UP THE SHIP If you are National Guard or Active Duty Military and you are being ordered to violate the Constitutional rights of U.S. citizens, then this is the number to the GOVERNMENT ISSUE RIGHTS HOTLINE. There is support. You don't have to go through with it. 1 - 8 7 7 - 4 4 7 - 4 4 8 7

Black Friday and Cyber Monday make up 20% of corporate retailers' annual sales. Keep your hard-earned money and let’s apply pressure on the businesses that support the Trump regime. Shop local and small businesses and keep your money in your local economy.

From Thanksgiving through Cyber Monday, we're saying "We Ain't Buying It" and asking Americans to hit pause on buying from corporations that enable Trump's fascist agenda: weaintbuyingit.com We Ain't Buying It Target Companies This action is taking direct aim at TARGET, for caving to this administration's biased attacks on DEI; HOME DEPOT, for allowing and colluding with ICE to kidnap our neighbors on their properties; and AMAZON, for funding this administration to secure their own corporate tax cuts.

OUR HEALTHCARE IS ON THE LINE

Join us and coalition partners this Thursday, October 30 at 8 PM EST/5 PM PST for an update on the shutdown situation and the campaign to organize collectively to protect our healthcare.

www.mobilize.us/wfpower/even...
OUR HEALTHCARE IS ON THE LINE Dear Friends, On November 1st, as open enrollment in the healthcare marketplace begins, working families will face the consequences of Trump’s healthcare cuts and refusal to fund the government. Millions of Americans will see huge increases in their premiums because Trump and Congressional Republicans are refusing to extend premium tax credits for people who use the ACA. At the same time, more than 40 million people will be unable to afford food when SNAP benefits are halted because of the government shutdown. Join us and coalition partners this Thursday, October 30 at 8 PM EST/5 PM PST for an update on the shutdown situation and the campaign to organize collectively to protect our healthcare. We won’t sit by as an estimated 22 million people watch their healthcare premiums double and 4.2 million lose healthcare because they can no longer afford it. We won’t sit by while government workers go without pay and families go without food. It’s time for Donald Trump and congressional Republicans to negotiate a deal to lower healthcare costs and fund our government. We hope you’ll join us this Thursday as we strategize to protect our healthcare and our communities amidst the threats we’re facing from the Trump administration. In solidarity, 50 50 1 (50 protests. 50 states. 1 movement.) https://www.mobilize.us/wfpower/event/864944/ Help Support Our Cause: Each local chapter of 50501 relies on community support and sponsorships.
