We are seeing more cases of ICE trumping up assault charges to chill dissent (like they have done with @replamonica.bsky.social). We need to understand how they're using this suppression tactic and how to continue to assert our Constitutional Rights.

A reminder: Both sheriffs and local police have the right to refuse ICE detainers. These requests are voluntary and not legally enforceable under federal law. Across the country, many sheriffs and police departments choose not to cooperate and that choice is fully within their legal rights.

🚨Jasmine Crockett & Eric Swalwell begged House Judiciary Republicans to vote NO. They offered deals, sweeteners, the whole package. And those damn soulless traitors STILL voted to let Trump exile American citizens.
This isn’t just betrayal—it’s the birth of authoritarian rule.
