Chris Cooper is amazing in Adaptation.

They spelled rapist wrong

In a refreshing counter, shout out to Canadian billionaire Jim Pattison, owner of Great Wolf Lodge and Ripley's Believe it or Not, for refusing to sell a half million square foot Warehouse in Hanover County Virginia to ICE.

Protest sign which reads "no detention Center here"

Proud of my fellow Hanover Virginia residents and of Canadian billionaire and Jim Pattison. Over 60 of us protested at the site the day after we learned about it

Thank goodness Canadian billionaire Jim Pattison stopped the sale of his half-million square foot Warehouse in my home county of Hanover Virginia as an ICE detention facility

This is what Unite the Right in Charlottesville was about. This is what January 6th was about. This is what ending birthright citizenship is about. This is what immigration enforcement is about. This is what Heather Heyer, Renee Good, and Alex Pretti were killed for.

@maddow.bsky.social thanks so much. It was #Hanover County, #Virginia residents that alerted the Canadian media to the impending sale

As you mentioned we learned about this on 1/23. The next day 60 of us protested outside the facility. Then 1,000 showed up on 1/28

PBS will spotlight Sun Ra and his Philly musical collective on 'American Masters' The episode on the experimental jazz musician, who led his namesake Arkestra, will premiere Friday, Feb. 20.

PBS will tell the story of Sun Ra and his Philly-based musical collective in an upcoming episode of 'American Masters'

Sounds like Richmond police targeting protesters during the the BLM protests of 2020

Thank you @maddow.bsky.social

So let's talk about open borders. Like Reagan and HW Bush did.

This is what it's all about folks.

Apparently that is Matt Mercer's voice. New respect

Is that Matt Mercer's voice!

It's not just about abolishing ICE. It's about reforming our immigration laws. Conservatives are right about one thing. If we are angry about enforcement of immigration laws, Congress needs to change those laws.

Proud of my fellow Hanoverians who showed up to protest, the Hanover Board of Supervisors who made a statement in opposition to this sale, and proud of Pattison.

It's time to not only defund ICE sensibly reform our immigration laws

Jim Pattison won't sell U.S. warehouse proposed as new ICE facility | CBC News Jim Pattison Developments has announced it will not sell an industrial building in Ashland, Va., that was set to be turned into an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) processing facility.

In Little Old Hanover County Virginia, 1,000 people showed up to protest the sale of a warehouse as a potential ICE detention facility. Thankfully Canadian billionaire Jim Pattison did the right thing

It goes well beyond that. We need to reform our immigration laws.

We've got people wringing their hands about low birth rates in America and at the same time wanting to end birthright citizenship. We've embedded "replacement theory" into our immigration laws and nobody's talking about it.

It goes beyond funding ice. We need to humanely reform immigration laws.

@erickakopp.com everyone is talking about abolishing or reforming ICE. But I don't hear anyone talking about reforming immigration law in the spirit of Reagan and HW Bush. These guys would be considered far left loonies today.

Time to reform our immigration policy humanely and excised of racist fear. It's not just about ICE tactics. It's about the laws they are enforcing.

We just defeated one of these warehouses by appealing to the owner, billionaire Jim Pattison of Canada. Owner of Great Wolf Lodge and Ripley's Believe it or Not here in Virginia.

It's time to have a real discussion about #immigration policy beyond "we don't want dark people to replace us".

Don't forget the "E" in ICE does stand for "enforcement". It's not only about abolishing ICE. It is about creating humane laws that match the reality of our reliance on #immigrants.
