I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

We now have a concentration camp in Florida.
Stop pretending any of this is normal.
If you claim to be a good person and you're not outwardly opposing this regime, you're not a good person.

TODAY WE MOBILIZED OVER 3 MILLION PEOPLE ACROSS THE NATION!!!
This movement has entered the next chapter: the people will mobilize again, and again, until we make a difference.
It only takes 3.5% of the population in a sustained resistance in order to make a difference.
