I preach the gospel of God's radical love and social justice, comforting the afflicted and afflicting the comfortable. In my spare time I'm a citizen scientist, genealogist, sci-fi nerd, wife, and stepmom.
So... apparently yesterday Shane Claiborne made me Instagram famous! 😲 Thank you for the shout-out and praise of my sign!

“The level of glee and enjoyment among those enforcing these policies, the outrageous investment in a detention and deportation infrastructure this administration is making, has made this an obsession of unfathomable cruelty and injustice.” — Rabbi Elyse Wechterman
I was there when ICE stormed Gigante. I can attest to the raid’s traumatic aftermath. | Opinion
Those who support ICE's actions ignore the fact that many of the people now being detained have existing asylum cases or green-card applications. Others have seen their legal statuses stripped away.

The U.S. Constitution and longstanding federal law strictly limit the use of the military to police civilians. Under the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878, active-duty military forces are prohibited from engaging in domestic law enforcement unless explicitly authorized by Congress or the Constitution.
