As we grieve for Alex Pretti and Renee Good in MN, please do not forget Victor Manuel Diaz, who died in ICE custody after being taken from here. And all others who have died in their custody.
36-year-old Nicaraguan national Victor Manuel Diaz died in ICE custody on Jan. 14 at Camp East Montana in El Paso.

The Texas Nicaraguan Community on FB reports that his mom last heard from him on Jan. 6, when he told her he was planning to go to Minneapolis to start work in a restaurant. 1/3

ICE agents are kidnapping, torturing, raping, and murdering US citizens seemingly with impunity. these are just the cases we KNOW about.

I'm not going to ask if you're doomscrolling. Everything is hard right now. But you still need to eat some food, drink a glass of water, as well as time to rest and recover.

Try not to stay up too late tonight. Sleep deprivation will make everything you need to do harder, including helping others.

Actually where is Dubya? Why are we letting him getting away with this painting corny pictures being a grandpa! Can we get some words from him?
So ICE is George W's baby. Why aren't y'all calling for him to make a statement?

There are so many smart and dedicated people who are working so hard to building something new and better and they are constantly being ignored and betrayed by people who are supposedly on their side and representing them.

I've been studying the history of US, and indeed, global policing my whole career and I can't make it more clear to law makers that this isn't a bastardization of policing, it is its purest form and logical conclusion. The impunity, militarization, deference, legitimacy, racial targeting, etc.

What's happening in Minnesota is one reason the Reconstruction Amendments banned insurrectionists from holding office. Unfortunately, the originalists on the Supreme Court interpreted the plain language of the amendment to mean its opposite.

The long tail of the fund the police movement is killing free society.
Most of this year's ICE budget comes from last year's reconciliation bill. House Democratic leaders discouraged its members from offering amendments eliminating that funding. Didn't want the party to come across as anti-ICE.

“.. He cared about people deeply ..,” said Michael Pretti, Alex’s father. “He thought it was terrible, you know, kidnapping children, just grabbing people off the street. He cared about those people, and he knew it was wrong ..”

ok so my current understanding of the state of play:

There are a subset of funding bills left to go. DHS is only one that doesn't have bipartisan assent right now.

House bundled them all including DHS, passed and sent to Senate, and left town.

Senate now looks likely to want changes

Yo @mikiesherrill.bsky.social NJ has an ICE problem right now — and it’s nothing to do with the upcoming storm. They are swarming my town. Protect our streets and all of our residents, citizens and non.

See how our friends in Gaza be knowing? And Hammam's a nurse too.
Honestly, what the hell is this? A humanitarian nurse is innocently killed, and Trump says he had a weapon and two magazines.

have said it before but I’ll say it again: believing in evil in our secular age is a radical proposition. that’s partially why it feels unbelievable to see what you’re seeing. ICE and its enablers are evil, and if you are on the side of the good you have a responsibility to stop them

"We are out there in every place they are, showing them that every person in this city is one of our own, that there is no such thing as other people’s children, that collectively we are not afraid of staring them in the eye," @erikhane.bsky.social writes from Minneapolis.
There is no such thing as other people’s children

Someone sent me something written by a couch revolutionary just yesterday where the writer denigrates ICE Watch as insufficiently radical.
I am trying not to post on these events in this state of mind but: I hope people understand what the observers are doing is brave and dangerous.

They’re killing observers because they are threatened by them. the work these people are doing is profoundly brave. They’re all heroes.

Immigration is a fake problem. We have politicians on the one hand who want to use immigrants as scapegoats for our real ones and politicians on the other who are too cowardly to stand against them and tell the truth. That is the entire situation. Until that changes, people will continue to die.
