How to support immigrants now and resist the mass deportation machine -- lessons from Internment of Japanese. www.idahoprisonproject.org/posts/intern...
Is miller trying to stoke a civil war?
Senior White House official says local and state police in Minneapolis “have been ordered to stand down and surrender.”

What?

It's my genuine hope that when people urge the (average, powerless) USians to "do something", that they understand that many of us are doing all we can. It's our leaders, people with actual power, who won't act.

DELETED

After lying about this baby they gassed and almost killed in their own neighborhood, DHS deleted their post

Other things law enforcement will tell you: cannabis is a gateway drug, Renee Good is terrorist, police brutality is a myth.

We wanted to know if ICE is doing its job. So we talked to three Aryan Nation members at a Five Guys in Coeur d'Alene.

Excellent book that provides some context to the decades-long bipartisan project to scapegoat immigrants for various problems in the U.S.
Excited to share that the book I’ve been writing about immigration, abolition, and lessons from the movement will be out this May from Haymarket Books. It's called Unbuild Walls: Why Immigrant Justice Needs Abolition – and feels as urgent as ever. bit.ly/buy-unbuildw...

The more people start organizing ICE watch trainings right now, the better. There's strength in numbers.

Great list of the events of the last half-week, it's a whole thread, not just this tweet, but very important to add to the list that the regime is currently holding three Lakota men hostage to attempt to force the Oglala Sioux tribe to enter into an agreement with ICE
In the last 4 days:

-- Elise Slotkin says she's being criminally investigated by DOJ
-- ICE illegally goes "door to door" in Minneapolis
-- FBI raids the home of a WP journalist
-- DHS illegally arrests, detains 100+ Somalians with legal refugee status

The exact sort of thing that causes crime to rise. It is much cheaper to meet people's needs than punish them for misdeed.

From a good friend in Minneapolis: "Target is allowing ICE to stage in their parking lots, use their restrooms, and abduct people from inside their stores - so if you weren’t boycotting already, now is the time." They were staging in Chicago as well.

if 'police reform' is on your mind, be assured this has been tried ad nauseum
THREAD. This can be an important educational moment for progressive people who don't work in or study the punishment bureaucracy. Having spent 20 years in it--and just publishing a book on exactly this topic--I can say that reality works in the opposite way that Jamelle assumes.
maybe an unpopular position on this website but i think the moderate dem focus on ICE training can be, with political pressure, the pathway to more fundamental reforms. rhetorically it is not too hard to move from “more training” to “turns out they’re untrainable and we have to start all over.”

It will never stop shocking me. They can come up to us and ask "how do I know youre a US citizen?" and "Where were you born?"

I've been carrying around a passport for the last year.

What a disgrace.
This black man, who was racially profiled by ICE in a gas station in Minneapolis today, would not have walked away if it weren’t for brave Americans who stood up for him and for those whose deaths have brought ICE’s savagery to the epicenter of national attention.

Keep calling them out, America!

Thank you for telling us you neither serve nor protect. Thank you for saying the quiet part out loud. That was state murder in broad daylight, captured from multiple angles by multiple witnesses, and the people of Minneapolis have eyes.

You support murder.

Undoubtedly, this will be lost on the IDLEG, but what welcome news!
Empirical data shows Idaho is becoming more and more sympathetic to immigrants as hostility from policymakers ramps up. The findings challenge the narrative often pushed by policymakers that Idaho supports more anti-immigrant policies.
New survey shows Idahoans’ sentiments toward immigrants shifted favorably in the past year
The ACLU of Idaho concluded a yearlong study on Idaho’s understanding and sentiments about immigrants and immigration policy.
