mask technology must've seen ginormous advances since the pandemic, because now every ice agent manages to wear a mask all day despite the fact that (per the science knowers on the right) wearing a mask used to cut off your oxygen supply, cause carbon dioxide poisoning, & wreck your immune system

Anyone else surprised they even release this?
NEW: Data released by ICE shows that virtually the entire growth of detention in the last few months has been among people with no criminal record at all - no prior convictions (no matter how minor) and no pending criminal charges.

ICE entirely out of existence. Poof.
ICE out of my city. ICE out of my country

a) fuck yeah, this is the kind of thing that needs to be happening worldwide and is not coincidentally the sort of thing that will actually blunt Reform UK's momentum

b) can we preemptively ban all the transphobes who are going to flood over here, please

weirdly silent about ICE killing an unarmed woman in cold blood, surely there's no politics at play here
Violence is always unacceptable, and threats of violence have no place in public discourse. Our thoughts are with Charlie Kirk and his family.

The woman killed by ICE was Renee Nicole Good, a 37-year old who was the mother of a 4-year old child whose father already died a few years ago.

As an immigrant (& naturalized citizen): Talk about how she was a citizen.

And white. And a woman.

I need even the most privileged & complacent to realize they're not safe anymore.

It didn't have to get this far. But you ignored it when they came for the rest of us, so now you're a target too.
i think it is ok to reiterate that the victim as a us citizen. yes, noncitizens are equally entitled to human rights. but also, it's important to illustrate how ice isn't about immigration at all

So, it's been a while but I'm pretty sure of this, Goebbels remarked in his diary that their regime didn't need to go out of their way to manipulate the press. They'd show up to the briefings and dutifully repeat whatever they said. Anyway.

part of the reason the george floyd protests fizzled out was the shift from summer into fall/winter

all the ICE protests from the past year fizzled out because summer shifted into fall/winter

this is January in Minneapolis. it’s only gonna get warmer
A friend in Minneapolis just sent me this video. Looks like thousands have come together for a vigil after an ICE agent shot and killed 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good. This was my neighborhood for several years before coming to Portland.

Ah yes, the Kavanaugh stop. A brief law enforcement encounter that lasts a mere *checks notes* 25 days.
The Department of Homeland Security released a Maryland woman who was held for 25 days despite evidence that her lawyers say proves she was born in the United States and is a citizen.
After 25 days, ICE releases Maryland woman who says she is a U.S. citizen
Dulce Consuelo Diaz Morales was detained in December despite her legal team’s claims that she was born in the United States.

losing my mind at the "she should have followed directions" people

really? really? you're cool with "if you don't follow directions, they get to kill you"? that seems like a good state of affairs to you? that seems like how law enforcement ought to work: instant obeisance or death?

ICE just murdered a woman here in Minneapolis. A legal observer. Shot her multiple times while she drove away as ordered. She was a US citizen.

Absolute, unequivocal, cold-blooded murder by Trump’s gestapo.

Abolish ICE, jail for everyone in charge. This is the lowest bar we accept now.

the argument that democrats cant act unless they "hold power" is ridiculous. what did they do when they had power? did they pass medicare for all? codify roe v wade? curtail the surveillance systems used by ICE? did they effectively leverage the shutdown to save aca premiums? of course not
