Edward Norton calling for a #generalstrike

Fan-fucking-tastic

LETS GOOOOO

#abolishice
These days it’s: ’What are we gonna do about mass Gestapo shooting American citizens?,’ Norton said.

”What they're doing in Minnesota with the strike needs to expand.”

”We should be talking about a national general economic strike until this is over.”

… Doesn’t matter if the whole country decides that something wrong is something right. When the mob and the press and the whole world tell you to move, your job is to plant yourself like a tree beside the river of truth, and tell the whole world

“No, you move.”

Spectacular shade.

Release the #epstein files
Reporter: You received a letter from AG Pam Bondi making several demands….

Walz: I would just give a pro tip to the AG. There's 2 million documents in the Epstein files we're still waiting on. Go ahead and work on those
January 25, 2026 at 8:49 PM
Pam Bondi and her ilk are hideous excuses for human beings…
her demands have NOTHING to do with immigration and she doesn’t even call the shots at #dhs that’s #icebarbie

The fact that this is their bargain shows how desperate they are.

@democrats.org you better hold your word on that “no” vote

@katmabu.bsky.social did a wonderful livestream for

nlgmn.org/get-involved/

They’re supporting folk in #minneapolis who’ve been detained by #ice with legal representation.

Are you feeling adrift after the events of today? You can help by donating. Anything helps.

If we get hit with this #dhs and #ice bullshit argument everyone’s immediate response should be “you’re right, we need common sense gun laws restricting firearms to law enforcement only.”

And then watch their fucking brains short circuit.

#abolishice #minneapolis
Now Noem says:

“This individual went and impeded their law enforcement operations...had a weapon on him, and multiple dozens of rounds of ammunition, wishing to inflict harm on these officers.”

So “had a weapon on him”, not brandishing.

Last time i checked they worked hard to make that a right.

This is Alex Pretti.

We will not let the fascists destroying this country sully his memory.

A video of Alex Pretti reading out the final salute of an unnamed veteran he cared for until the end of his life in the ICU, posted to Facebook by his son.

Rest in peace, Alex.

You were known for your kindness and in your final moment for your bravery against fascist #ice thugs.

You served us veterans and we’ll never forget you.
Alex Jeffrey Pretti, an ICU nurse. 😢💔🙏 He spent his life helping people, and now our government is peddling lies in an attempt to make you believe them.

Are you all fucking kidding me?

Now, more than ever, we are watching every vote, EVERY OPINION and we will not forget.

We, the people, will vote accordingly.

And to those seven, Renee Good’s blood is on your hands too.

Seriously time to #abolishice as their function appears to only be racist buffoonery and general jackassery.
Great idea for a screwball comedy: thief steals $100m in jewels, gets arrested, realizes his only chance is to engage with the dumbest and most incompetent group of fuckheads on earth (ICE) and get himself deported so he doesn't go to jail. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

It was never about #god
It was never about #staterights
It was never about #immigration

It was always white supremacy and #hate and the protection of #capitalism which flourishes under #inequality

#ice is the modern day klan, they just have different uniforms.
I’ve had enough. Christ followers cannot ally themselves with cruelty and abuse. If you support this- Tell the truth, you’re a hypocrite that wants God to sanctify your evil.

This is the stance you should be taking… not dithering away with think tanks that lead you to perpetual electoral losses.

Get #progressive or get out.

Mamdani: "I am in support of abolishing ICE. What we see is an entity that has no interest in fulfilling its stated reason to exist. We're seeing a government agency that is supposed to be enforcing some kind of immigration law, but instead what it's doing is terrorizing people."

MLK was radical and that’s a goddam good thing to be.

Our education system softened his image.

Capitalism has led us to where we are, oligarchs controlling our government, a #congress unwilling to save our democracy.

None of us are safe. No one is coming to save us. We must save ourselves.
"We have deluded ourselves into believing the myth that Capitalism grew out of the Protestant ethic of hard work and sacrifice.
The fact is that Capitalism was built on the exploitation and suffering of Black slaves and continues to thrive on the exploitation of the poor."

Violence we support elsewhere is bound to come home.

Watch this. Learn how #ice has co-opted tactics of the Israeli Occupation Force in #gaza

I don’t support the genocide there and I don’t support stochastic terrorism here.

#abolishice
The "right to defend itself." Occupying neighborhoods. Blocking ambulances from victims. Building pretext to hurt kids. Taking billions from US taxpayers to do it all.

Is this the Israeli military? Or ICE? Yes.

She’d like to notify @democrats.org that they need to stop mincing words and get on the #abolishice train. #ice is unpopular, unnecessary, and dangerous with its influx of untrained thugs hellbent on hurting innocent people.
