Abolish ICE, prosecute and imprison its leaders, impeach and remove the President from office. This is the only sane reaction to a group of armed men kidnapping and gunning down our neighbors in the street.
As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today.
ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.

This is a new low for Twitch!
Twitch is now offering "sponsorships" where the only payment is a gifted sub IF your community gifts 5.
You have to play the shitty game, do a very overt ad for it, and you get nothing in return.
