Pastor on why she patrols her neighborhood to document ICE activity:

"My faith calls me to care for my neighbors as I care for myself. I want keep my neighbors safe and I do that by putting love into action, by driving around and documenting, legally, what is happening in my city right now."

This is exactly what the bosses who put Trump into office were trying to achieve. Crushing the tight labor market from the early Biden years that gave workers - for the first time in my adult lifetime - leverage over their bosses.

When checkpoints go up in a fascist autocracies hardening phase it means violence or kinetic contact is imminent.

In Bosnia, Ukraine and elsewhere the pattern is clear when the forces espousing eliminationist rhetoric and deploying secret police for terror raids put up checkpoints violence follows

My husband believed he never had chicken pox; turns out he had a practically asymptomatic case -- maybe one or two blisters -- so his mom didn't worry too much about it. Got shingles at 45 so severely that our then seven year old child asked me if Dad was dying. Please get the vax anyway

Shingles on my scalp turned into a skin infection so painful I went to the ER and they did a CAT scan and showed me my whole head was swelling up to fight the infection. They gave me such powerful antibiotics my gut wasn’t right for six months.

Am I doing this right PMEP?

What did the Nazis do with valuable items of Jewish people they deported or sent to concentration camps? They did the same thing that Nazi ICE rats are doing with the property of Hispanic people.

Not only is ICE snatching hard working people who are trying to earn a living, they’re taking their money too?

A witness recorded ICE agents taking a cash box from a taco stand in La Puente during an operation where four people were arrested.

So when the #AmericanGestapo says their arrests involve people committing crimes, they are technically correct. But the criminals are in ICE, not Home Depot parking lots or street taco stands.

In South Minneapolis, Minnesota, nearly two dozen neighbors confronted and surrounded ICE goons after rapid-response alerts were issued. The goons were questioning an East African man when the situation escalated, and they eventually left the area without making any arrests.

Child deaths under 5 believed to be rising for first time in decades Cuts to development aid from several countries is a key factor, researchers said.

The death rate among children under 5 is expected to grow this year for the first time in the 21st century, researchers say. A key factor, they say, is cuts to U.S. and other foreign aid

Democrats have a plan to extend ACA tax credits and prevent a health care cost catastrophe. Been waiting on Republicans for years and years – they’ve got nothing, and the American people will get stuck with the bill if something doesn’t change quickly.

A date which will live in infamy.

Today, we commemorate the more than 2,400 Americans who were lost during the attack on Pearl Harbor.

We are forever indebted to the courage of those who stood up for democracy and freedom β€” and we will never forget their sacrifice.

The most transparent administration in history is now hiding both the complete Epstein files and the complete video of the Sept. 2 boat strike from the American people, only releasing the parts of each that they want you to see while concealing the rest.

Community members in Kenner, Louisiana, activate rapid-response teams to follow Greg Bovino and his Border Patrol goons through the neighborhood. They alert residents and warn them not to open their doors unless CBP has a court-ordered warrant.

This is a thread of #ICELawlessness.

Don't ignore it!
It sucks so hard, but don't turn away! Bear witness & share it!

Make sure no one you know can claim ignorance.

At the bottom of the thread I'll share links on various platforms so you can share these videos everywhere.

It’s important to remember there are two scandals here:

1. The Administration has likely committed war crimes.

2. But the entire operation - which now includes two dozen attacks - is illegal. In our democracy, the President CANNOT wage war without the consent of the people.

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from OkjΓΆkull to Ok (jΓΆkull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque:
"This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".
