Norwayβs Foreign Ministry announced that Ambassador Mona Juul has tendered her resignation after her name was noted repeatedly in the Epstein files. The ministry cited a "serious lapse of judgment" on her part. www.aftenposten.no/meninger/kom...

Nonviolence is moral - and it also puts into stark relief who the bad guys really are.

Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century.
He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. Heβs referenced 38,000 times.

"Terrorism" refers to violence to achieve political ends. Research studies showing that immigrants commit fewer crimes means that ICE's actions are about Trump's racist politics, not law. That means ICE operates as a de facto racialized terrorist organization, not unlike the Gestapo.

Graph showing that policies blocking ICE access to jails have kept immigration arrest rates lower in some states.
What's the difference between states like Florida, where ICE arrests are sky-high, and states like Illinois with much lower rates of arrests? It's all about police & jails.
Arrest rates out of homes, workplaces, etc are similar β but reining in sheriffs makes all the difference.
