This is the point of the camps and deportations. They don't actually want immigrants out of the country. They know the economy would be wrecked without them. They just want to keep them afraid, silent, and compliant.
A friend recently bought me these Tiny Tates Gluten Free cookies and they're pretty delicious. I googled them to see where I could buy more but instead this popped up.

Gross. Evil.

I'll find another sweet treat.

this expresses the music but you must understand that in the show they are all wearing like neon green glow-in-the-dark glasses and it's also a rave, it's like being drunk in the best way LOLOL
Thank you Animatic Creators, as I'd heard some songs thanks to them, but not this one and...Oh. It works but in a way that only makes rational sense if your brain already tends to throw mismatched things together.

People all over Portland, Oregon were impacted by the chemical warfare deployed by the feds tonight. Here’s a thread of some Portlanders experiences who weren’t even at the protest:
Lots and lots of teargas and various other munitions. People yelling for medics. Ambulance came for one person already and there was a brutal arrest amidst all of this

Yet another film I'm ready to fight IMDB on.

Wendell and Wild, came out a few years ago but only got around to it now. Amazing animation, solid story, and just. I can see a lot of love of the craft and the story went into making it.

Trump and his nazi minions are running a savage concentration camp here in Minneapolis. @kellymorrisonmn.bsky.social details it:
My office has been flooded with reports of the cruel, unsafe, unlawful conditions inside of the Whipple detention facility in Minneapolis.

This weekend, I was finally granted access to perform oversight of the facility. youtu.be/0SxPn8n2Bfg

at the ICE protest tonight in Portland, after we all got gassed, I found what I thought was a zippo pouch. It is in fact a medicine bag, in the indigenous use of the term. I only opened it enough to find that out.

If you know who belongs to this let me know and I can get it back to them.

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.

Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

There are four more students from Liam's MN school district in federal detention in Dilley, TX, two of them from the same school as Liam. A second grader, a fourth grader, a fifth grader, and a high-schooler.
i am so grateful that liam ramos as home. this is also a story about the importance of observation and getting these stories out there. how many children are detained that don’t get the same treatment because they don’t have powerful photos

Liam was taken from Columbia Heights, the town just south of my high school in Fridley and just north of the Arts district in NE Minneapolis. I spent a lot of time with friends there after extracurriculars. News of his abduction completely broke my heart. I’m glad he’s home. #Comics4Liam

When I saw pictures of Liam Ramos with his Spidey backpack and bunny hat, I felt an overwhelming responsibility as someone who works in superhero comics. Please do check out the art in #Comics4Liam and visit comics4liam.com to support Liam and groups helping other immigrants like him. ❤️💪🐇

Ochoa is a Border Patrol agent who joined CBP in 2018. Gutierrez joined in 2014 and works for CBP’s Office of Field Operations. He is assigned to a special response team, which conducts high-risk operations like those of police SWAT units. This had nothing to do with training.
BREAKING: The two federal immigration agents who fired on Minneapolis protester Alex Pretti are identified in government records as Border Patrol agent Jesus Ochoa and Customs and Border Protection officer Raymundo Gutierrez.

I've been working for the last 10 days to set up an Etsy shop. I'm launching it now. Two things in this shop are 100% for Minnesota relief - the Bird of Protection mug and the Dragons Against Ice sticker. The other two mugs are for general happiness.

people are saying this is about deference to power/centrism, but this is about Whiteness, too; Shapiro and many Dems (who refuse to criticize it) see ICE (positively) because it serves as a weapon of Whiteness
Confused as to how Josh Shapiro thinks it is appropriate to compare student protestors to the KKK but inappropriate to compare ICE to the Gestapo

In addition to being misinformation, false framing, and bad reporting?

This reeeeeeaaally isn't helpful to those in the twin cities who have friends and family outside it. If they're to be worried, they should be worried because of what's actually happening, not lies.
If you're wondering how mainstream media is covering the broad-based peaceful resistance in Minnesota, this morning @cnn.com aired footage of the Minneapolis 3rd Precinct fire *from the 2020 riots* as if it happened last night. This isn't just misleading, it's a dirty rotten lie.

Police departments in targeted deep-blue cities keep on saying they’ll try to stop ICE from breaking the law and then they do jack shit except occasionally arrest some protesters.

Its notable they’re even saying these things, but lets focus on what their actions have always and continue to tell us.
I’m *extremely concerned* about the way folks are reforming their image of the cops in light of everything that’s happening, even though we only have a handful examples of them disagreeing with ICE, while still being responsible themselves for the murders of Black and brown people across the country

“It’s worse than people think,” said attorney Eric Lee, who tried to visit clients at Dilley on Saturday. “The water is putrid. They have to mix baby formula with water that nobody wants to even smell. The food has bugs in it. The food has dirt in it.”
“[Liam] keeps asking about that hat and that backpack that are in the picture,” the congressman said. “I think they took that from him.”
