🚨 ALERT🚨 DC Police (MPD) has announced that they will start collaborating with ICE at traffic checkpoints. What does this mean 👉🏽
ALERT DC Police (MPD) has announced that they will start collaborating with ICE at traffic checkpoints Aug 14 onwards What does this mean? - MPD has started to set up traffic checkpoints with federal agencies (like ICE) to stop people - During the traffic stop they can ask about a person’s immigration status - MPD can also share immigration status information of a person stopped at a checkpoint with ICE so that ICE can come and detain them - Warning: ICE may be present at MPD precincts in an attempt to take custody of a person after release Important to understand: - The Trump administration does not care about the law. Even if you do everything right, they can detain you. - Still, it is important to know your rights, b/c of potential legal recourse after MPD or federal agents violate them 202-335-1183 Call for active enforcement, text for sightings Remember you have the right to: - Remain silent - Refuse to sign documents - Refuse to consent to a search - Film the police in public - Ask if you are being detained or if you free to go Remember these best practices: - Do not carry false documents - Make sure a trusted friend/relative knows your correct A-Number and country of birth - Make sure a trusted friend/relative has a copy of your important documents - Create an emergency plan for you & your family: familiesuniteddcmetro.org Scan this qr code for a list of available legal, direct service, and mutual aid resources in the DC, MD, and VA area: bit.ly/migrant-resources-dmv

#StaceyAbrams explains how to achieve an #autocracy in 10 steps.

We're at step 9.

The military is in our streets. Is our democracy worth the effort to defend it?

Finally got a chance to watch the @joshjohnsoncomedy.bsky.social routine about Trump and Epstein that came out a few days ago.

I am blown away that he managed to put together a full hour of stand-up about breaking news and it's somehow polished and funny as hell.

Give it a watch and share it.
