As Trump takes office & pledges mass deportations, here is a shareable film series written *by immigrants for immigrants* on how to safely defend against ICE.
The first of four: 🚨If ICE is outside your door, don’t panic. Don’t open the door. Ask to see a warrant. ICE can’t enter w/o one. Part 1:

Let them know you're filming them and keep asking the key questions:
"Do you have a warrant signed by a judge? Show me."
"Do you have a badge? Show me."
"Do you know how pathetic you are? You showed me."

This is how you firmly assert your rights and stand up for our communities.

Being a person with deadly, incurable cancer who is nonetheless still alive for an indefinite timeframe gives me an interesting metaphor that helps me deal with things like large-scale corruption in government or commerce.
Bear with me for a second while I try to explain.

Two weeks ago today, Donald Trump’s ICE agents arrested me.
Now, he’s threatening to put @zohrankmamdani in a prison camp he’s building in a Florida swamp.
It’s frightening. It’s essential to fight back. It makes me proud of how New Yorkers voted last week – and how we’ll vote again in November.

If you think it can’t happen here, remember that it already did. In 1942 soldiers came with rifles to our home and ordered us out. They put us in internment camps. Most of us were citizens.

Trump’s House allies just approved the mass firing of 80,000 VA workers.
That’s 1 in 5 VA employees gone — threatening wait times, care access, and veterans’ lives.
This isn’t reform. It’s demolition.

If you tried to sue the Trump administration, you’d now need to post a million-dollar bond. That’s what Senate Republicans just slipped into their budget bill — a backdoor blockade against lawsuits, whistleblowers, and public-interest litigation.

Senate GOP’s Remedy for Anti-Trump Lawsuits? Make Them Impossible.
There’s a provision in the Senate’s “big, beautiful bill” that would make plaintiffs against the federal government post huge bonds to file lawsuits. And they’re proud of this crap.
