www.havenwatch.org was started by a woman who noticed ICE releases detainees in the night without phone, money, warm clothes. So she decided to organize volunteers to help these very vulnerable people get to safety. Please consider supporting the cause. ICE is still terrorizing #MN

The Border Patrol agents lied. They always lie. And they lie to destroy other people's lives for fun.

BREAKING: 47 Senators just blocked a measure that would have provided billions more dollars of no-strings-attached funding for ICE and Border Patrol to continue their violence and abuse.

While we applaud these Senators for taking action, the fight continues.

@reptedlieu.bsky.social’s office has said something similar. Meanwhile, people are being murdered on the street and children are being held in unconscionable conditions. And that’s just domestically. The situation is untenable and every second our reps delay is another second we don’t get back.
Here’s what happens when you ask a Congressional Democrat who says “we should impeach them” why they won’t actually file the articles:

@jayapal.house.gov's office was clear: she will vote for impeachment but will not file the articles.

ICE thinks they can just leave Minnesota after murdering two Americans in cold blood.

We will not forget. This administration owns that bloodshed and Democrats should not give an inch on funding.

Regardless if the withdrawal next week happens or not, the brave people of Minnesota have shown us the blueprint for resisting occupation.

Other cities MUST take note. If they do leave MN, the paramilitaries will undoubtably just be moving to terrorize another community.

The Trump administration said it is ending its deployment of immigration agents to Minnesota. They’re framing it as Minnesota agreeing to cooperate, but most of their statements are false. It’s Minnesotans standing firm and refusing to back down. The resistance only grows. Minnesota strong 💪

Organizers, get your contacts, emails, and everything else off of Google products TODAY. Yes it is inconvenient, but the convenience is how they get you in the first place.

Instead use Cryptpad, Proton, or anything else private and encrypted.
