I can't believe that people are being rounded up and illegally detained, and that a huge swath of this country still supports the administration committing these crimes.
Abolish ICE!
Equality for ALL.

We don’t need to reform ICE.
We don’t need alternatives to ICE.
We don’t need to engage in dishonest debates wondering what the U.S. would do without ICE.
ICE isn’t even 23 years old. Most adults know a world without ICE. And the billions used to fund ICE can be used to meet people’s basic needs.

We white folks need to come right out and say, not just defund ICE, but ABOLISH ICE.
We should not have these jackbooted thugs abducting people off the streets and abusing them in illegal concentration camps.

This is a classic form of voter intimidation—making people feel like it’s not safe to go to the polls. It moments like this where we need to summon our courage & vote anyhow. Vote in the tradition of the people who marched in Selma to secure the right to vote.
Breaking from NJ AG Platkin:
"Early this morning, law enforcement responded to threats that were received by email involving certain polling places in Bergen, Essex, Mercer, Middlesex, Monmouth, Ocean, and Passaic Counties. Law enforcement … have worked swiftly to secure these polling locations."

ABOLISH ICE and EXPAND THE SUPREME COURT should be mainstream Democratic promises and talking points.
But timidity and civility will rule the day and screw the rest of us and this country in the end.

As a white American, I can say that this statement is unfortunately true.
Just saw someone post "Democracy Dies in Whiteness."
Amazing truth. Encapsulates America.

If Donald ‘actually’ won the last election in a ‘landslide’, why would he need to be pressuring so many states to redraw their maps before the midterms? Yes, this is rhetorical. We know why.

This is what fascism looks like — masked agents arriving, uninvited, at a governor’s event to intimidate a political rival. The idea that the Border Patrol would accept such a nakedly authoritarian assignment six months into the Trump admin should terrify us.

the way calling for the deportation of any visible non-white person is rapidly becoming normalized is a huge cause for concern.
