Until the US ends the drug war, provides ample healthcare, stops sending people to foreign prisons, stops kidnapping immigrants, and stops using solitary confinement - NO I will NOT stop talking about politics.

This giant ICE Army they are building this year is also likely to be at polling places during the midterms in heavily Democratic precincts with the excuse being that they are looking for “illegals trying to vote.”

Naming someone is not doxxing. They aren’t undercover. They aren’t intelligence agents overseas. This is outrageous - we are supposed to be a free Republic and these people want an authoritarian police state. Lawsuits should be filed & ranking Dems in Congress should act.

Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum.

Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum.

Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum.

ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.

Is there a way to specifically pay 1% of your taxes with a promise to send the rest when the Epstein files are released?

Good afternoon from downtown Chicago, where despite heavy snowfall, thousands have gathered for an anti-ICE/CBP demonstration in solidarity with the Twin Cities. More are still streaming in.

Lt. Illinois Gov. Juliana Stratton just addressed the crowd, and called for ICE to be abolished.

CBP chief Bovino has confirmed that the officers who executed Alex Pretti in the street yesterday are not only *not on administrative leave,* they have all been reassigned to other jurisdictions and are all on the street today.

This is totally unheard of for any officer-involved shooting

Watch ICE, Film ICE.

These are treasonous, racist, inhumane thugs who want to destroy our country and turn it into a Christian Nationalist ethnostate. If you value the lives of your fellow Americans, it is your CIVIC DUTY to film what is happening. 👀🎦🧊

He didn’t have a gun. Anyone who says different should be charged with conspiracy to commit murder.

Also from this article: "The unidentified pediatrician claims the agents appeared to be 'counting his bullet wounds' instead of administering CPR as Pretti lay critically wounded." Heartless. Cruel. Inhumane.

Can we start calling them IDF? Many of them are. Or how about Klansmen?

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.

White. Hot. Rage.

Whatever is in the Epstein Files is so explosive that the leaders of the Department of Justice are openly breaking the law every day to keep us from seeing it. (Just a reminder amongst all the other stuff flying around.)
