Hey #ICE I made you a thing. You can put these posters up in your building in Portland, or Chicago, or anywhere you operate.

Although the ICC is in The Hague now, so you may miss out on the details. The substance, you'll get. There will be trials when this is over. Count on it.
A faux travel poster saying "Visit Scenic NUREMBERG GERMANY," with script underneath saying "We were just following orders." The image is a colorful view of old buildings in Nuremberg, seen through prison bars with concrete around the borders.

Times are weird.
A skeet: ME: Now Mom, just remember, there's a lot of disinformation and Al in your social feed and your friends' Facebook. MOM: I know! My friend sent me this crazy post where someone used Al to make an image of a giant frog fighting Army troops! ME: ... okay, no, that one's ... goddamit, Portland.

Banantifa solidarity from Portland.
Two No Kings protestors (with a massive crowd behind). One is dressed in a leopard suit and carrying a sign depicting the dictionary definition of terrorism ("the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims). The other is dressed as a banana with a blue sticker showing a frog with the word "Banantifa."
