ICE are just outright murderers now. They cannot be saved. Their reputation is forever tainted. Abolish ICE is the only viable position for Democrats now. #maddow

Apt cards for this moment. I read them as: Keep doing the work. Remember that kindness is also strength. The nightmares are scary but we can't let them demoralize us.

This has never been about immigration enforcement, it's always been about civic provocation, incitement of violence. The murders will continue until they get the response they are looking for. I hope we don't give it to them.

ICE detained a 7 year old going to the ER. They didn’t even let her see the doctor. Monstrous.

Jan. 23, 2026 will be remembered as the beginning of the end for the ICE regime grasping the throat of the US working class. A coalition of unions - including our sister local CWA 7250 - in collaboration with community groups, has called for a general strike of no working, no shopping, & no school.

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

Neighbors helping neighbors! We see you Minnesota. Love from Portland!
it is -10 here today. I was supposed to go do a volunteer shift standing outside loading groceries into people’s cars to deliver to families stuck at home. just got a call not to come in because they have too many volunteers already. if you were wondering if the cold would stop us.

Opponents said the cameras could be used to track innocent people and put vulnerable residents at risk of surveillance by federal agencies. Police argued the cameras were key in solving numerous cases, including some involving violent crime.

I think a thing we'll learn tonight is that people fucking hate what is going on and they will straight ticket vote against anyone involved in starving people while pillaging the country and kidnapping their neighbors. I don't think it matters at all who that person is.
