The Government is planning to send King Charles to the US to celebrate with Trump. Giving him a royal visit right now sends a terrible message that his behaviour is acceptable. We can stop this if enough of us speak up. Will you add your name to the petition? you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/ca...

There's no reason for ICE agents to have guns. Nobody is shooting at them.

It would take a two-word amendment to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 to subject ICE agents and other federal law enforcement officers to the same liability for constitutional violations that local and state officers currently face.

If Congress actually cared about what it's seeing, it could pass that overnight.

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.

We are under attack by the government we pay taxes to protect us. It cannot stand. I will not kowtow to ICE or any other government agency of this criminal and authoritarian administration. I will march. I will speak out. I will die before surrendering to fascism. #Resist #Fight #ForOurChildren

Over the last week, we’ve seen federal agents arresting, threatening, and using force against innocent bystanders.

They have carried out enforcement actions in schools, at hospitals, and in one horrific instance shot and killed someone.

ICE is about TERRORIZING Americans, not immigration. They want chaos and fear, not safety.

Let's be clear. Donald Trump will indict the Fed Chair, kidnap foreign leaders and kill American citizens in MN if it distracts you from asking WTF is in the Epstein files because HIS BASE doesn't like pedophiles. None of this is normal. But everything he does is from weakness right now.

There is no excuse for remaining on X, and the Government is simply wrong for suggesting it needs to keep a presence there to reach millions of UK users. These people won't vote for us.

They say they’re monitoring ICE arrests. Feds say they’re breaking the law.
The fatal shooting of Renée Good last week, as ICE officers and residents faced off on a Minneapolis street here, has brought new attention to ICE monitoring.

Our elected representatives have abdicated their responsibility to defend the citizens from violent oppression by the state. By abdicating such duty, that duty falls upon us. Have a high caliber day. 🙂
