‘Abolish ICE’ has become an increasingly popular position and people are being shot in the streets over it why the fuck would you dillweeds roll over like this. Especially given that citizenship is much more friable than people think it is this is not as protective as dems want it to look.

my son is five, same age as Liam Ramos. you don't need to have a child the same age to be fucking horrified by the violence we are doing (and HAVE BEEN doing) upon immigrant children in this nation. but that he keeps asking for his spidey backpack is the kind of detail that rips my heart in two.

It’s really difficult & disorienting but the feds hit LA extremely hard today. There were kidnappings all over & reported cluster raids in Chinatown, East LA, Ktown. This list shows to 1130 AM but they haven’t stopped all day

Just because the media attention stopped doesn’t mean the abductions have

No. Not reform. Abolish. Don’t play.

Anadith Danay Reyes Álvarez died several years ago, on May 17 2023, under the Biden administration.

Abolish ICE, so that no matter who is in charge, this will never happen to a child, again.

Anadith Danay Reyes Álvarez died in government custody.

She had sickle cell and congenital heart disease but couldn’t access timely and adequate medical care.

We need to reform immigration detention.

In a heartening turn of events, the ICEwatch patrol training in Pasadena was absolutely packed to the gills this week, surprising even the organizers of the event. LA continues to get organized against ICE terror

I have been actively involved in protest movements for 24 years. I have never seen anything approaching this scale. Minneapolis is not accepting what's happening here. ICE fucking murdered a woman for participating in this, and all that did is bring out more people, from more walks of life.

It’s infuriating how many people claim to care about fictitious “child trafficking” conspiracies about trans people and Wayfair and Democrats but will miss, ignore, and distract from actual government agents kidnapping children in front of their very eyes

DHS employees entered our store this afternoon and served us a Notice of Inspection, demanding copies of I9 forms for each employee.

In 27 years as shopkeepers, we have never been subjected to this type of investigation.

Californians are NOT going to vote for Gavin Newsom. They're telling you now, with YEARS to go before the election. Fair warning. Please support better candidates, there will be many to choose from.

This is why there aren't organized leftist movements in the US by the way. whenever they get big enough or successful enough, all the leaders are murdered.

Much of this by @attackerman.bsky.social hits so close to the bone; want to add this isn't just for classic investigate journalism, it echoes for someone whose beat was (IS) to report accurately on race, gender, class and other systems of power:

Worth remembering: some of the most horrific policies in history were enacted through “proper” legal processes. The Nuremberg Laws were passed by a legislature. Jim Crow was law. Apartheid was law.
