A judge had to issue a court order to ensure ICE provided seizure medication to a detainee, and that detainee still didn’t get their medication.

ICE enforcement is a disability justice issue.

They’re a eugenicist movement.

They want the “sick and weak” to die:

Just experienced the most intense tear gassing of my life by federal officers outside the ICE facility in Portland where marchers gathered. There was no fast exit as they indiscriminately threw loads of gas and flash bangs. Children were in the crowd screaming. @oregoncapitalchronicle.com

Oh there are children and gentle people sauntering with hands in pockets on a stroll to show solidarity? Better light them the fuck up!

Just got gassed pretty good at the labor union anti-ICE protest in Portland. Massive march, 5-10k strong. Vibes were very much liberal rather than radical. Lots of kids and older folks.

They gassed the whole crowd as soon as it marched on ICE, in broad daylight.

I just got tear gassed along with thousands of union members, many of whom had their families with them. Federal agents at the ICE facility tear gassed children. We must abolish ICE, DHS, and we must have prosecutions. I expect to see enforcement of our city code prohibiting the use of tear gas.

Shout out to the ice officers in Portland for trying to tear gas my seven year old today.
Big brave boys! Warfighters!

Minneapolis: Another noise demo is planned for the Graduate Hotel tonight, where ICE agents are said to have been staying. Tonight will be at least the third protest at the hotel, which is frequented by students at the U of MN. Here's our video of the first demo at the hotel, held January 13.

*posting the hottest photo ever taken of a human being* this'll show those commies.
Scrolling through the photos of Pam Bondi's "Minnesota rioters," it's just hero after hero. Every photo includes a cowardly DHS agent with their back to the camera.

Bondi thinks she's going to win the propaganda war with this shit, but it's never been more clear that they're losing.

I'm starting to think this guy might not have "that dog" in him?
SCHUMER says Democrats are “united” behind three DHS reforms

1/ End roving patrols; tighten the rules on warrants and require ICE to coordinate with local authorities.

2/ Enforce accountability; a uniform code of conduct.

3/ Require masks off, body cameras on, agents carry ID.

I appreciate the support for these small presses, but I don't think we gain anything by pretending sometimes-difficult books are the "killing a peasant with a cool ranch dorito" of literature.
”Along with many others, Coffee House, Graywolf, and Milkweed in particular are known for publishing fiction that would give an ICE agent a stroke”

The Portland Metro Chamber (PBA) just published its top 3 legislative priorities for 2026 and #1 is…

Using public (city and state) money to renovate the Moda Center…

They also want tax cuts and the ability for cities to arrest houseless people easier.

The ruling class is completely out of touch.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Excellent explanation of how ICE moves immigrants from one prison facility to another to deny them access to justice.
