I'm seeing people wonder why ICE is going after Charlotte.
ICE has been at war with Charlotte's sheriff ever since he won in 2018.
We'd covered this at Bolts back in the day; this quote is from that sheriff:

We'd covered this at Bolts back in the day; this quote is from that sheriff:
“When the 8 African American sheriffs took over the largest counties in North Carolina, it became a threat to the good ol’ boy system,” says the sheriff of Charlotte. These new sheriffs broke ties with ICE.
But GOP lawmakers cracked down this week, overbidding the governor’s veto to adopt this law:

North Carolina GOP Is Cracking Down on the Black Sheriffs Who Stood Up to ICE
Boosted by new supermajorities, Republicans are closing in on legislation to mandate more collaboration with ICE and preempt local policies hard-won by immigrants’ rights advocates.

This is how you organize. Learning from what works in other cities, then bringing that to your neighborhood. What works? Blowing whistles to warn of ICE nearby, showing solidarity at businesses, designating public & private spaces, having rapid response community groups.
It always starts with you.

We can all be doing this. We can all be forming community groups. We can all learn how to protect each other. This regime wants to tear us apart and crush our shared values. We won’t let them. We will build while they break, and soon enough, we’ll be so organized, they won’t be able to stop us.

I applaud all clergy willing to do what's necessary to show the brutality of what's being done. In the 1960s the Catholic church encouraged their members and clergy to fight on social issues. Christianity used to be more nuanced.

The Kremlin disguised a nearly $100 mn payment to Trump in the form of a brokered real estate deal... and both Jeffrey Epstein and William Pulte were involved in the deal. That's very interesting.

Those claiming Dems should retreat on racial justice aren't hard-headed realists, they're pushing against the electoral tide rather than leaning into it. The story of Gen Z isn't about racist backlash or red-pilled young men. It's the most racially progressive generation in American history. 🧵

“I didn’t love the idea of protecting pedophiles, but it was ultimately the right thing to do,” explained the Republican, “because that was the only way I could hurt the economy, get secret police tear-gassing kids, end Constitutional democracy, and pocket some cash while I’m at it.

We don’t need to back off the American Gestapo and we don’t need to respect its agents. People exercising state violence are not entitled to anonymity. Nor are the people directing the state violence.
MIKE JOHNSON: From the people who mandated mask wearing for years, it's absurd. They need to back off ICE & respect our agents
Q: So you're ok w/agents not identifying themselves when they're arresting migrants?
J: Why, so they can target them? So they can put names and faces online and dox them?
