Yes to every word of this and the post @leahgreenberg.bsky.social is quoting! Seen it here in Brooklyn with @bkindivisible.bsky.social and their constant presence at vigils, marches, protests and actions. TY @indivisible.org @handsoffnyc.bsky.social @jfrejnyc.bsky.social for all your work!

I have genuinely *never* seen an NYC mayor get an ovation from a TV crowd before. I thought we were contractually obligated to boo them.

Dear neighbor, It is not the time to let your guard down, nor is it the time to stop organizing.

While Bovino will be leaving Minneapolis along with some U.S. Border Patrol agents, there is still no specific plan that has been communicated to the public. 1/

A lot of out of state media are parachuting in and making outrageous demands or requests of organizations doing mutual aid. Asking to connect with or directly observe people working with the vulnerable. Have some fucking respect for the work and realize the stakes are life and death.

ICE murdered RenΓ©e Good in broad daylight. Less than 3 weeks later, they killed Alex Pretti, shooting him 10 times. Every day, we watch as people are ripped from their cars, their homes, their lives.

We can't allow ourselves to look away from this cruelty. Abolish ICE.

Dirty Dakotan Kristi bragged of turning unforgiven immigrants every which way but loose, but she was always a million dollar baby looking for a fistful of dollars. Will playing Misty dull the sudden impact of American snipers acting out a spaghetti western?

The execution of Alex Pretti is playing so badly because you can look at his actions and life story - his last act was helping, boy scout, athlete, health care worker to veterans - and compare those to the men who killed him and know which you would want to be your son, brother, father, uncle.

My brother @pridenpioneers.bsky.social and good friend @standup2p.bsky.social both agree! We’ve known β€œThe Swaz” for years…you can always count on him to exceed your low expectations.

Standing up to Trump continues to pay remarkable dividends for Canadian PM Mark Carney. To paraphrase Trump, Carney has played his cards spectacularly well, having been dealt a really bad hand.

Terrific deeper dive by @alexaphilippou.bsky.social on Breanna Stewart’s β€œABOLISH ICE” sign and how she and other #WNBA and #Unrivaled players continue to lead the sports world in speaking out against hate and injustice. Give it a read. Worth the time.

Our thoughts are with the people in Minnesota and across the country who are bravely standing up for their neighbors despite violence committed by ICE. If you are looking for a way to support the people of Minnesota, we want to highlight the work being done by the Immigrant Rapid Response Fund.

No better way to show our πŸ’™for MN than a blizzard rally outside @schumer.senate.gov (7th day in a row!) We are so thankful that ni Dems are voting for DHS$, but we also know that this is just a 1st step in stopping ICE terror! Hold the Line, Chuck!

New York City wants Chuck Schumer to hold the line and defund ICE.

Here we are outside his place off Grand Army Plaza.

Sound all the way up, recommended.
