Protest erupted in Chicago’s suburbs as Cosplay Kristi β€œmore plastic than brains” Noem arrived to push her ICE agenda.

But the community isn’t staying quietβ€”residents are calling out ICE for acting like a rogue force, detaining without cause,& terrorizing families.

WTG Chicago!

πŸ’” This past Sunday, our base showed up in the thousands across the country to protest the detention and deportation machine. Jews & allies took to the streets, insisting on our right to publicly mourn the horrors of our so-called immigration system. In total, 11 cities took action.

Dystopian cyberpunk update: the TikTok algorithm is actively suppressing news about massive protests in LA so people are getting around it by tagging it as a 24 Hour Music Festival and then you search that hash tag so you see ppl in riot gear facing down tear gas talking bout the festival is lit

Trying to stay on top of salvaging all the anti-ICE propaganda distributed at actions. I regret not saving more of this stuff from 2020. It's such a great record of the times and with our digital spaces in total disarray, who even knows what will survive at this point

I can’t edit video, scene is too volatile. They’re pushing us down Aliso, throwing out batons somewhat regularly, have at least 20 mins of video from earlier, dozens still out here

What Are My Rights During an ICE Raid? Immigration law can be tricky, but here's what you should know.

Dealing with law enforcement can be stressful, so it’s important to know your rights before you’re face-to-face with ICE agents. While there’s never any guarantee that law enforcement officers will follow the law, here’s what they can and can’t legally do to you and what you can legally demand. ⬇️

Border Patrol agents raided a Home Depot in Los Angeles today, kidnapping over a dozen people in what they called "Operation Trojan Horse."

They borrowed this tactic from Patriot Front, a neo-Nazi group that rents box trucks to transport its members to marches.

Now the fascists hold state power.

Anyone who still refuses to call it genocide is actively complicit.

Denying that one is carrying out genocide is a fundamental part of perpetrating genocide.

Why do neo-Nazis engage in Holocaust denial? Because erasure is essential to the program.

The Israeli government is doing the same in Gaza.

Repression is not something that comes "after" the movement. It is not a custodial task. Building police centers and concentration camps, rounding up workers on a farm, are also all acts of repression that we resist. They fight us, we fight them back. It's as simple as that.

Been saying for a minute now that we are going to start seeing them in other vehicles. Trying to hold two thoughts at once here: this is definitely an escalation, but it also shows how desperate they are not to be tracked/surveilled.

Anyway, no seatbelts in the back of those things.

It's been nearly two and a half years since 23 people were charged with domestic terrorism at a Stop Cop City music festival. But they haven't been indicted. One of those people, Jamie Marsicano, will appear in DeKalb County Court on Wednesday to argue that her charge should be dismissed.
