Apple shows their moral weakness bending to orders of Trump's authoritarian regime by removing #ICEBLOCK from their app store

Iceblock App creator: @joshua.stealingheather.com

APPLE product users must stand up against their capitulation. Severe economic pain is needed to strengthen their spine.

Another effort to track ICE raids was just taken offline People over Papers was removed by Padlet, the platform it was built on, yesterday.

Identifying public officials isn't "doxing." People have the right to know who is working for their government. Nor, for that matter, is it "radical left-wing terrorism." So it's frustrating to see platforms caving to these bad faith characterizations. www.technologyreview.com/2025/10/06/1...

I was a skeptic about the import of the Epstein files.

But 3 invasions of cities, one military buildup outside Venezuela, a government shutdown, and so many other things meant to distract have me convinced whateverโ€™s in there is the biggest presidential scandal in U.S. history.

ICE is made up of men who have failed the human test and have nothing of value to offer this nation.

Adults with decency and options and possibilities donโ€™t do this shit.

Black people in Chicago had their apartment building raided in the middle of the night, were detained for hours, and had their Fourth Amendment rights violated during an ICE operation that had nothing to do with them. Nah, they are not thrilled.

The more America sees and hears from Stephen Miller, the worse it is for Trump and MAGA.

He's a total freak and loser, repulsive to the majority, and he's the shadow President and currently the most powerful, unelected person in the country.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson:

Stoke fear. Exploit desperation. Suspend the rule of law. Fan brutality.

Every time the stronger brutalize the weak, itโ€™s fundamentally the same playbook.

Our duty is to stand up to brutality.

Our moral obligation is to protect the vulnerable and hold the powerful accountable.

Obama didnโ€™t turn deportations into โ€œbread and circusesโ€ style entertainment either. He just got the job done, legally and quietly. Thatโ€™s why the MAGA crowd thinks Obama did nothing about the problem.
They like to see action. Trump/ICE is putting on a wild show for them.

Iโ€™m 72. And I completely agree.
We need a new team. Younger. Aggressive.
Energetic.
Better messaging.

The Democratic Party needs to get younger, feistier, smarter at messaging and more in touch with the electorate, both at the state and federal levels.

Democratic voters need to get more discerning about who they choose to fight against the rising tide of oligarchic fascism.
