@ablativmeatshld.bsky.social there is no way I can explain the trauma these kids will experience for the rest of their lives or how it will be generational.

I just need people to get angry.

You don’t have to support that slogan, but the facts are: 1) we won 2) police ended up getting more funding

Defund the police cost dems so badly in 2020 they won congress and the presidency

“Yeah but they would have won by more”
How well did that kind of statement work out the last time? "Defund the police" cost them. We need Immigration and Customs Enforcement. But the Dems can insist on removing qualified immunity, no firearms on American streets, and proper training. And stronger background checks. No Proud Boys as ICE

Patronize as many of these businesses as you can before and after Friday.
When we started this list of Minnesota businesses taking part in the Jan. 23 economic blackout we didn't realize quite what an undertaking it would be, but we are now at more than 250 and counting.

Keep 'em coming!

What ICE is doing is terrorizing an entire community to rid it of anyone who is not white. They function like a modern day slave patrol, run by the federal government.

Neighbors are still being torn apart, and we have yet to hear back on a plan from Governor Walz.

We are asking the community to call his office and ask for an eviction moratorium. You can leave a voicemail here: 651-201-3400‬.

It needs to be said that it is extremely telling of what role ICE is ultimately playing in society that schools respond to it as though its a horde of potential mass shooters.
two seattle schools had to shelter in place due to ICE today. they’re coming.
