Should we have more nuance & politeness in how we talk about the authoritarians doing the authoritarianism? 🤔

This is the issue of our time. How we respond to Trump’s secret police will define our future for generations.

Our community is stronger than any masked henchmen.

ICE: Get the fuck out of Illinois.
Screenshot of headline from Daily Northwestern: 'Get the f-k out of our cities': Community members hold vigil to honor Minnesota woman killed by ICE Quoted copy reads: Abughazaleh told The Daily she had cried five times since learning of the shooting. "It was a mom that just dropped her kid off at school," Abughazaleh said. "Her wife saw her get shot in the head. She had stuffed animals in her glove box and a dog in her car." She then called for the abolition of ICE and DHS and for prosecuting federal immigration agents. "Get the f—k out of our cities," Abughazaleh said. "You're not wanted here. And as soon as we possibly can, we're not just abolishing ICE — we're holding all of you to account." Headline screenshot of Evanston RoundTable: Protesters gather to condemn fatal shooting of Minneapolis woman Quoted copy reads: Candidate Kat Abughazaleh said if she were in Congress, she would be launching an investigation into the shooting and dismantle the Department of Homeland Security. "So many of us, including myself, have seen firsthand the brutality that ICE enacts in our communities," she said. "ICE has already shot people in broad daylight, killed people in broad daylight. Shooting a mother in the head ... isn't a surprise, but it still hurts. It still knocks the breath out of your chest."
