Repeat after me - the institutions of this economy depend on the institutions of this democracy, among which is the rule of law
Jack Smith: "My fear is that we have seen the rule of law function in our country for so long that many of us have come to take it for granted. The rule of law is not self-executing. It depends on our collective commitment to apply it."

“When’s the next nationwide protest?” You might be asking yourself.

Here’s a big one that’s happening in less than a month!

Jan 20th. Free America Walkout. Women’s March, 50501, & More. Be There.

Along with 600 other Minnesotans, I sang and marched today near and on Lake street with the Minneapolis singing resistance choir. It was beautiful and bittersweet as we marked places our neighbors have been abducted.

The party is going to fundraise, that’s fine. But if you want to support local organizations, mutual aid efforts, and other work happening directly on the ground in Minnesota, this is for you

Jeffries and Schumer and hundreds of Dems should be on the ground in Minneapolis. As they should have been in DC and in ChIdaho and LA.

If they get roughed up it helps explain what’s happening to average voters — the breakdown of rule of law.

ICE's killing and brutality is breaking through big time with disengaged voters. Joe Rogan just harshly criticized ICE as "Gestapo." And new data I've obtained finds very high percentages of young and working class have seen video of Minneapolis shooting.

New piece:

Joe Rogan’s Harsh New Takedown of Trump ICE Raids Hands Dems a Weapon
When a Trump supporter refers to ICE as the “Gestapo,” a door has definitely opened. Will Democrats charge through it?

In under 48 hours, you organized nearly 1,200 marches and vigils in all 50 states and DC for Renee Nicole Good.

There are more of us than there are of them — and We the People won’t stop demanding accountability for ICE’s killing of Renee. #ICEOutForGood

They don’t want you to know this, but…

… there are over 1,100 protests over the next two days.

There’s one in every state.
They are in deep red areas.
They are in small towns.
Most of these were planned in less than 24 hours.

The people are taking their power back.

The woman in the video is not a screaming radical extremist bent on killing an ICE agent. The very last words she spoke, were conciliatory, not threatening. “That’s fine dude, I’m not mad at you.”

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.

I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

rare to see an american politician speak in these terms and it rocks
“When I speak about making our city more affordable, my vision is not limited to the homes that we live in or the child care that we’re making universal — it’s also a vision where we make it possible for working people to afford lives of joy, of art, of rest, of expression.”

Americans, THIS WEEKEND find a place to join with your fellow citizens in peacefully protesting ICE actions. It matters, and it will make you feel better to be doing something. #solidarity #democracy #humanity #dignity #ICEOUT #protests
In response to ICE’s execution of Renee Nicole Good & violence against our communities, the 50501 Movement is demanding the immediate abolition of ICE & is joining its partners in the Disappeared in America Coalition to announce ICE OUT For Good, a nationwide mobilization scheduled for 1/10 & 1/11.
