In addition to protests at the Ministry of Defense and the Kinki-Chubu Defense Bureau today (6:30-7:30 p.m.) there's also a protest at Kaigai Corporation (company repping the Israeli drones in the current round) in Nagoya from 5-6 (海外物産中部支店) @japantimes.co.jp
Takamori Hirayama (National Defense Academy Alumni Against Genocide) will begin a hunger strike in front of the Ministry of Defense on 1/26 because the Japanese government is still considering purchasing attack drones from Israel. From the press conference today: www.instagram.com/p/DTk0WGnE-SE/

“The people are being charged with keeping the peace, asked to stand firm against the federal agents who are disrupting it. This is a sick form of double taxation — your paycheck gets docked so that a guy in a mask can beat you up while you try to calm him down.”
"Why is it so normal for law enforcement — those who are supposed to be keepers of law and order — to kill Americans? And why is the only question at the end of the day how much their victims deserved to die?"

There are a lot of people asking if they should fly to Mn to "help". JFC NO.
Have you taken constitutional observer training? Have you set up rapid response/mutual aid networks in your own neighborhood? Do you know your neighbors' names? Do you know who will need food/supplies?

It was so bitterly cold this morning that I couldn't take my fingers out of my gloves for more than 30 seconds without them burning. But I really wanted footage of MN residents shaming ICE/CBP agents to their faces.
So I hit "record" with my chin and just aimed my phone at stuff. Like this.

Babies I've encountered in the train or wherever (i.e. we are strangers to each other) have smiled back at me despite an N95 covering most of my face :)
A two month old baby woke up from sleep in the arms of her big cousin brother… looked deep into his eyes, and returned the biggest smile you have ever seen.
Yes. Big bro was 😷.

Last night, I was assaulted by a man at Sundance Festival who told me that Trump was going to deport me before he punched me in the face. He was heard screaming racist remarks as he drunkenly ran off. The individual was arrested and I am okay.

You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.

Another fact that people outside of MN might find hard to believe:
I cannot participate in any kind of observation of ice activities because they will put me in a database, and follow me when I make deliveries of supplies to vulnerable people, so they can abduct them.

A fact that's hard to believe for many people outside of MN:
I have to be vetted to join my local signal group that patrols our local elementary to keep federal agents from kidnapping students bc those same feds are infiltrating those chats to better target vulnerable people for abduction.

Today in MN is a perfect example of why I ask y'all to subscribe to my human rights advocacy.
Corporate media knew MN interfaith leaders were coordinating a historic protest with thousands of Christians, Jews, Muslims, Hindus & non-believers working TOGETHER.
And none showed up.
