1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken.

Hundreds of kids are still detained.

We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

The right to protest in this country is sacrosanct & must be protected. It is especially irresponsible to offer an authoritarian government still more tools that can be used to criminalize protest. Read our joint statement opposing the anti-democratic buffer zone bills introduced in the NYC Council.

This whistle fights fascists I print whistles now. You can too.

This whistle fights fascists

As news media loses interest in Minneapolis, projects like #ICEoutComics are absolutely essential. I hope you'll regularly visit that hashtag and share those testimonies.

Happy Sunday, lovelies.

We are Minnesota nice, but hate ICE

Taxing billionaires out of existence may be the most critical domestic policy fight of our lifetimes.

I think people often wonder this, and it's a great question, so let me explain the advantages of 3D printing whistles. There are many.

The 3D printing effort started from one of our organizers who started by sourcing mass-produced whistles.

Here's a way you can support the whistlemaking effort without sending $$ Amazon's way. BUY FILAMENT GIFT CARDS. All the information is in the task 👇👇👇

If you called and yelled at your D senator, thank you. None of them wormed out of this vote. Doesn't stop ICE funding for now, but we made them commit to this and will hold them to it when we win back the Senate. Defund and abolish ICE.

And the correct answer is:

This past week IWQ members took their signs and candels to shine the light on all the people being abused, kidnapped, or murdered by ICE. We also had a phone rally to call our Senators. Well done ✊🏾✊🏻✊🏿✊🏽✊🏼🇺🇸

Whoops, I stand corrected, apologies! Gillibrand HAS posted one (1) time about ICE on this website!

Please call her and tell her to publicly call for Hochul to support and pass New York 4 All, which would prevent NY agencies from coordinating with ICE!

ARE YOU SCARED OF A FUCKING WHISTLE DAWG

This is an amazing, comprehensive resource for comments against two proposed federal rules that not only takes the ability of parents to get gender affirming care for their kids, it takes the abilities of whole hospitals and states to offer gender affirming care.

Hey y'all! While the fight in Minnesota is FAR from over, I have been keeping an eye on Maine as well. I connected with the awesome folks over at No ICE for ME and got some links to share!

The biggest one is the Maine Solidarity Fund. They are doing EVERYTHING right now. We just sent them $1000.

For about 4-5 mos, I did a (sorta!) daily noncooperation thread; then my life got busier & well, here we are!

But if you've missed it, I can't recommend this thread highly enough.

We the people are NOT cooperating, and Minnesota is way out in front. Be inspired.

Whistles don't blow people...people blow...
sorry, showing myself out

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”

That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

Ready for more action? Demand that Congress conduct a full investigation of ICE agents’ use of deadly force. Hold ICE agents accountable and refuse to allow US taxpayer $ to fund abuse. https://americansofconscience.com/01-23-2026/#action2

THE DILDO DISTRIBUTION DELEGATION The revolution did not arrive with speeches, pamphlets, or a carefully moderated Zoom call about optics.

NSFW, but this just gave me so much joy.

Since September, ICE has shot people 9 times across 5 states. At least 5 people are dead, including 2 Americans in Minneapolis. But when we say ‘abolish ICE,’ we’re called radical. Meanwhile Trump has gutted USAID, the CFPB, the DOE, & more—without anyone calling THAT extreme.

Abolish ICE.

This is abuse of power. To those not already understanding the situation, wake up!! We need you in this fight.

It's simple: ICE kills. Stop them now.
