If ICE shows at work or home here’s some small blurb sheets. And as always i will highlight the most important part- DO NOT TALK TO COPS.
IF ICE AGENTS SHOW UP AT YOUR DOOR 1. You do not have to open the door. If you do, stay calm-you have rights. 2. Ask what they are there for (and ask for an interpreter if you need one). 3. If they ask to enter, ask if they have a warrant signed by a judge and if so, ask to see it (through a window or slipped under the door). 4. If they do not have a warrant signed by a judge, you may refuse to let them in. Ask them to leave any information at your door. 5. If they force their way in, do not resist. Tell everyone in the residence to remain silent. 6. If you are arrested, you have the right to remain silent. Do not sign anything until you speak with a lawyer. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS ACLU IF YOU INTERACT WITH ICE AGENTS AT WORK 1. Ask if you are free to leave. If so, you may calmly walk out. 2. You have the right to refuse consent to a search. 3. You have the right to remain silent. You do not have to discuss your immigration status with anyone, such as about where you were born, whether you are a citizen, or how you entered the country. 4. If you have valid immigration documents, you should show them. Never provide fake documents. 5. If you are arrested, say that you wish to remain silent until speaking with a lawyer. 6. You have the right to record your interaction with immigration agents as long as you do not interfere. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS ACLU SI AGENTES DEL ICE LLEGAN A TU PUERTA 1. No abras la puerta, pero mantén la calma. Tú tienes derechos. 2. Pregunta para qué están ahí y solicita un intérprete si necesitas uno). 3. Si piden entrar a tu casa, pregúntales si tienen una orden firmada por un juez y si la tienen, diles que te la muestren (por la ventana o que la pasen por debajo de la puerta). 4. Si ellos no tienen una orden firmada por un juez, puedes negarte dejarlos entrar. Pídeles que dejen cualquier información en tu puerta. 5. Si entran a la fuerza, no te resistas. Dile a todos que estén en la casa que permanezcan en silencio. 6. Si eres arrestado, permanece en silencio y no firmes nada hasta que hables con un abogado. CONOCE TUS DERECHOS ACLU SI AGENTES DEL ICE LLEGAN A TU LUGAR DE TRABAJO 1. Pregunte si puedes marcharse. De ser así, salga tranquilamente. 2. Tú tienes derecho a no prestar consentimiento a una búsqueda. Diga en voz alta que no consientes a que registren tus pertenencias. 3. Tú tienes derecho a guardar silencio. No tienes que discutir tu estatus migratorio con nadie, ni dónde naciste, ni si eres ciudadano, ni cómo entraste al país. 4. Si tienes documentos de inmigración válidos, deberías mostrarlos. Nunca presente documentos falsos. 5. Si eres arrestado, diga que quieres permanecer en silencio hasta que hables con un abogado. 6. Tú tienes el derecho a grabar tu interacción con los agentes de inmigración, siempre y cuando no interfiera. CONOCE TUS DERECHOS ACLU

Some alt text is truncated. The Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention and Human Security has placed the US under a red flag warning. See text below.
Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention and Human Security Red Flag Alert - United States of America The Rise of the Nazi Salute Released on 20 January 2025 The Lemkin Institute for Genocide Studies and Prevention is without words after the billionaire Elon Musk gave the Nazi salute twice during his speech at the inauguration of President Donald Trump in the United States of America. Musk's act is a frightening signal of things to come, an offense to the nation, and, possibly, an effort to embarrass and weaken an aging Donald Trump, making him vulnerable to a Musk takeover. In light of Musk's important influence on the new administration, the Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention is issuing a Red Flag Alert for genocide in the United States. We at the Lemkin Institute had no misperceptions about the possible threats of a Donald Trump presidency, particularly to the rights of refugees and the LGBTQ community, as well as the likelihood that America's weakened democratic institutions will be undermined if not completely destroyed by an administration that is formed by people who have lauded autocrats and dictators in other regions of the world. We made this clear in our Statement on Genocide and the US Presidential Election on 4 November 2024. However, we did not expect to be issuing a Red Flag Alert for genocide on the very first day of President Trump's presidency after one of his closest advisors gave the Nazi salute twice to a crowd of cheering Americans. We remind Americans that many of their fathers, grandfathers, and great grandfathers died fighting the Nazi regime during World War Il in the name of the aspirational goals of the United States to be a beacon of liberty. The memory of those lost fighting fascism is honored by memorials in most US cities and towns - their names sit on street signs and their faces are remembered in portraits in the houses of patriotic Americans proud of their anti-fascist history. They were heroes. Many of the victims of Nazi terror and Nazi genocide found a safe haven in the United States after 1933, including Raphael Lemkin, the man who coined the term genocide and who was the driver behind the adoption of the Genocide Convention by the United Nations in 1948. Lemkin, who was Jewish and Polish, lost 49 members of his family in the Holocaust. That Elon Musk, an unelected figure close to the president, should feel free to flash the Nazi salute on inauguration day, a day that this year coincides with Martin Luther King day, is hard to fathom. It is an insult to this country, to its Constitution, to its veterans, and to the many survivors of the Holocaust who created new lives and new families within our safe borders. Should Mr. Musk argue that he "did not mean" to flash the Nazi salute, or that he was doing some other arm gesture, we ask Americans to respond with critical thinking. Is it possible that any person - especially in South Africa (where support for Nazism was very strong) or the USA (where the History Channel has introduced almost all but the youngest generations to the Nazi salute) - is unaware of this salute or what it means? And we ask Americans to try it out: The salute is not at all a "natural" gesture of the arm as it moves the hand from the heart into a wave to an audience. It is almost impossible that this was an unfortunate mistake. Finally, can we really believe that someone who is so often in the public eye would risk an arm gesture - twice - that looks almost exactly like the Nazi salute while he is supposedly celebrating Donald Trump's election to president? We strongly believe that Elon Musk's gesture was intentional. We will be happy to be proven wrong. Nazism must be fought everywhere it rears its head. It imbues more generic forms of fascism with racialized fantasies of natural hierarchies of humanity an… The Nazis began their genocidal process by targeting their primary political enemy, the German Communist party and its members. The popularity of this terror campaign among pliant, timid middle class Germans, who were staunchly anti-communist, weakened German institutions and paved the way for Hitler to institutionalize his dictatorship, which eventually sought to root out all difference and all dissent from the German social body. We know now that Hitler brought ruination on Germany, destroying those same middle class families with war and economic devastation, and burdening the entire nation with responsibility for the murder of 6 million Jews alongside the massive casualties experienced by all sides in the war. Germany will be branded by Hitler, World War II, and the Holocaust for as long as it exists. We cannot forget these facts. The worst mistake any American can make at this time is to believe that Musk is stupid or to be pliant and timid in the face of this provocation. At the Lemkin Institute we have learned that we must absolutely take leaders, and people in positions of great power, like Elon Musk, at their word when they signal allegiance with hate groups through signals or through speech. Musk's Hitler salute cannot and must not be swept under the rug. The US press, cowed as it has been under President Biden, cannot be trusted to cover the new president's administration with any backbone or honesty. It is up to the American people to defend the Constitution and this country's core values against all threats. Trans people, refugees, and migrants are not the threats. The billionaires with close ties to our new president who flash the Nazi salute and seek to replace the old elites with a new caste - that is the real threat to America. We hope that President Donald Trump will see this threat for what it is and that he will have enough love of country to do what any patriot would do in his shoes: Repudiate Musk and strip Musk of the position and the access t… The Lemkin Institute issues Red Flag Alerts when developments occur in countries and regions that exhibit several red flags for genocide. We understand red flags as immediate developments that have the potential to radicalize and/or bring together destructive historical trajectories and move a society further towards a mass atrocity event aimed at destroying one or more collective identities. Our Alerts focus especially on developments that we feel are not being adequately appreciated for their genocidal potential by the global public and media, and that therefore need reconsideration within a genocide prevention framework.

Remembering the 24-hour news cycle of 2017-2021 and how exhausting it can be to be barraged by constant terrible news and idiocy from the people “running” the country. Please remember to take time away from social media and take care of yourselves. We’re in for a dangerous, exhausting ride.
