Hit them where it hurts them - boycotts can work
Want to Stop ICE? Go After Its Corporate Collaborators.
ICE can’t function without help from the private sector. So we should force the private sector to stop helping.

"After listening to the public comments and discussing the 287(g) MOU with City Council members and the Mayor of Center Line, the City Manager has determined that it is in the City’s best interest to withdraw its MOA with ICE."

WE DID IT!!

That's the power of the community when we stand together!

Republicans have shut down the government to take healthcare away from millions of Americans and give Trump a blank check for his illegal power grab.

Republicans shut down the government to gut healthcare and bankroll Trump’s illegal power grab. We must hold the GOP accountable for causing chaos just to appease a wannabe king. app.sosha.ai/s/WOTH3n5M

This escalation is a very dangerous moment. This is Donald's way of circumventing any block of National Guard troops by the Governor. This is also in hopes of creating a tinderbox moment that would allow him further power moves. Stay peaceful, but keep fighting, Portland!
Trump orders deployment of troops to Portland and authorises 'full force'
The president says the latest move is "necessary" to protect immigration detention facilities in the major US city.

Here's some insight into what's going on in Corporate Media today. Now we have a choice: do we reward the Walt Disney Company for reinstating Jimmy Kimmel's show to keep the money coming or do we continue to boycott to send a loud and clear message to all involved, including Trump and Carr?

ICYMI, Jimmy Kimmel made a few remarks on his show last week that got Donald real mad. He sent his bulldog FCC chair to threaten the network, which had been hoping to make a deal to gain more viewership (read: money & power,) so the network canceled Jimmy's show indefinitely.
September 22, 2025 at 6:22 PM
The Walt Disney Company (owners of ABC, Hulu, and Disney+, to name a few) is feeling the effects of the cancelations, folks! Speak up for free speech by canceling your subscriptions! Say NO to government censorship of broadcast media!
Disney Plus subscribers quit in droves over Jimmy Kimmel axe
Kimmel's show was suspended after he made remarks about the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk
