Thank you, President Obama. Amplifying your message, and a link to these resources in the comments.

The concentration camps must be dealt with. If there is a deportation order, deport. But putting people and their kids in jail indefinitely is criminal.

I think not enough white people are taking the voting rights issues seriously enough. They are killing people and then offering to stop killing if the state gives up the voter registration data. This should be setting off massive alarms for EVERYONE. (I’m looking at you, white people.)

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Apple & Google removed ICE tracking apps in their app stores.

TikTok reportedly suppressed videos criticizing ICE & the shooting of Alex Pretti.

Meta blocked Facebook groups tracking ICE & links to a database of agents that the government wants to keep secret.

Big Tech is enabling Trump's regime.

Fourteen-year-old Nastia, who was injured in a Russian missile strike on Ternopil and lost her mother, grandfather, and family home, has taken her first steps after two months of treatment in Lviv.

Nastia suffered deep burns to 15% of her body, including her face, neck, eyes, arms, and legs.

Senate Democrats must demand actual accountability.

If they can't abolish ICE, they must insist on independent investigations into the shooters of Good and Pretti (and everyone else ICE has hurt). They can't let it stand as an unaccountable agency with total impunity and endless funding.

Abolish ICE is not enough.

Stern words for Greg Bovino or Kristi Noem is not enough.

We need prosecutions and trials.

Anything short of this position fails to address the gravity of this moment.

Waiting for NYT, WAPO, all legacy media to sane-wash and euphemize all this.
There ARE words for what is happening. They have been around in history for a long time.

I keep going from horrified, to a deep sadness, to an anger that shakes me to my core.
We all feel the need to walk away, to quit watching, take the easy way out like the German citizens did.
But you watch, remember it all. Because this is history and we're living it.

Protesters in Los Angeles projected an anti-ICE video onto the Twin Towers, an ICE-linked detention facility where the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department actively collaborates with ICE for deportation screenings.

They keep showing us who they are.

Murdering our citizens for peacefully exercising their rights, ignoring our laws, gaslighting us for demanding justice…

They think their brutality will cower us into silence.

Into obeisance.

They clearly don’t know who we are.

They will.

Thank you! This is heartbreaking in a million different ways. We could have had you in the White House. Now, we have this. I am beyond enraged, beyond scared, beyond determined to keep organizing against this evil.

Alex Jeffrey Pretti was an ICU nurse at a VA hospital. His life, through his profession, was dedicated to serving his community and our country.

As so many have now seen on video, his final act before he was killed by federal agents was doing everything in his power to protect his community.

Alex and tens of thousands of Minnesotans have boldly defended their neighbors against the murderous occupation of an American city by the federal government. I am enraged and heartbroken for Alex, his family, Minneapolis, and America.
