I made a list of protest songs from the 60s-70s and many of these are burned into our collective memories and the impact they had on our politics. Did you have a particular song that made you feel deeply about the state of affairs back then? #CivilRights #AntiWar #ProudBlue #DV1

OUR SAFETY COMES FROM OUR NUMBERS, NOT OUR ANONYMITY
A Minnesota woman observing ICE agents in her car was cornered on one-way streets. An agent approached, called her by name—citing facial recognition. Days later, her Global Entry and TSA privileges were revoked, with no explanation.

I spoke with a forensic pathologist on the risks of shackling for long periods -- excruciating pain, bruising, cuts, permanent nerve damage, and a "very high risk" of developing blood clots that could become deadly. She described these flights as torture.

Lawyer: I've been representing a mother and her 5 children. The two youngest children have lived 20% of their lives in that facility. We've had awful reports of mental health deterioration. This facility is a jail. It's unconscionable that there are children at this facility.

Well, Kristen Radtke of The Verge just made me cry with this remembrance of her childhood best friend Alex Pretti.

"Alex was an easy playmate: generous, curious, sweet. His mother always ensured he had a tidy haircut and a clean room."

I grew up with Alex Pretti
The kind-hearted ICU nurse shot by federal agents was my childhood best friend.

This video is now banned for US users on Tik Tok.

The platform has fallen to the regime.

And this is EXACTLY the kind of footage they DON’T want US citizens to see.

The murder of Alex frame by frame. If you look away, you are complicit.
If you remain apolitical you are a coward.

A moment-by-moment analysis of video from the scene shows that Mr. Pretti was already restrained when fatal shots were fired, which appears to contradict the federal government’s account of the event.

🧵When videos of ICE chokeholds, artery presses were reviewed by former police and DHS officials, they were appalled.

"This is what bad policing looks like, they said. And it puts everyone at risk."

Videos show dozens of incidents of immigration agents using life-threatening tactics.

In nearly 20 cases, agents appear to use neck restraints that the Department of Homeland Security prohibits unless there is a threat of deadly or serious harm.

This beautiful child, an American citizen just like his parents, is being bullied because Donald Trump is a racist piece of shit and white supremacy feels emboldened to act without shame. This hatred is taught and it is wrong.

And in this moment, this beautiful child would be falling into his mother for comfort but she has been taken.

We are raising a generation of children who are being traumatized by the state, and some of them will grow up angry because their parents were ripped away by force.

Most of the ICE Air planes departing from Minneapolis are going to El Paso, where the captives are transferred to the notorious Camp East Montana on the Army's Fort Bliss.

This is completely fucking unacceptable. Shut this terrorist government down until it stops brutalizing its own citizens.
Today at 34 & Park in Minneapolis, a woman tried to drive down the street where a protest had broken out in front of a home ICE was raiding, saying she had a doctor apt to get to. ICE agents busted out her windows, cut off her seatbelt, and pulled her out before arresting her.

In light of what happened to Renee Good, I thought it important to reiterate my grandmother's advice.
My grandmother’s family was murdered in the chambers of Auschwitz. She survived and told me never let it get that far. Make them shoot you in public before they murder you in hiding. Stand up for others. Never cave in fear of the Nazis or the holocaust will happen again.
