ICE is firing pepper bullets and deploying smoke grenades in Portland, even though protesters are remaining in their designated area and peacefully dancing.
This video of Chicagoans intervening to save a man from being abducted off the streets by ICE is making the rounds on Instagram. Community action works. Source: www.instagram.com/reel/DPZL2AL...
Why are we not talking about this!!!?? @nicollewallace.bsky.social - you are my favorite news show host and personality. I listen every single day. But, what of Dowd? Why have you all been silent on this ? @maddow.msnbc.com @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com www.huffpost.com/entry/matthe...

I don’t feel so bad for his wife and kids. They had that shit on blast, in their home. Everyday? Shit now i don’t feel so bad about my initial gut feeling when I heard the news.
Christopher Webb@cwebbonline.com · 11mo agoBig sigh. Watch this. Can you see why the Yankees’ moment of silence, the lowered flags, the promise of the Presidential Medal of Freedom, feel like a gut punch to the very people he spent years targeting? No one wished death on this man, but what we’re seeing right now is too f*cking much.
The president is sending the military to control American cities and if you're a reporter who's framing that illegal power grab as "pushing the boundaries of constitutionality" or "acting boldly to fight crime" or whatever, please go find another line of work where you won't get us all killed.
ICE, DC Police, Park Police, DHS, and HSI brutally arrested a man who refused to provide identification after being stopped for eating in public. Goons attempted to stop community members from recording his injuries during the incident.
Please take the time to watch this video. It's very poignant. 😢 Thank you, Coach. 💙 youtu.be/ejLDQ32UvyQ?...

So, this keeps popping up AGGRESSIVELY as a look for a second part-time job. 1st- fuck you indeeddotcom for posting this 2nd-yeah, it’s a lot of money with a high “sign on bonus” but I would rather live in a refrigerator box than disappear my community. 3rd-fuck y’all for taking these jobs.
We’re calling for a Florida boycott over the inhumane “Alligator Alcatraz” detention site. Cancel your family vacation and choose a different destination this summer.
This is only a few hours from me and we are gutted. You gut the service responsible for predicting shit like this and then shit like this happens. Unsurprisingly but still maddeningly, the clown has yet to call any Texas officials but had a fun time dancing at this party. And this is Texas. Fuck.
@strea3m.bsky.social · last yr.Unsurprising, frustrating & extremely sad: The senseless indiscriminate cuts by this admin (via DOGE) to NOAA & the NWS led to & continue to be a major part of why ppl aren't getting a chance to prepare properly & are also having to endure needless loss of lives as they deal with natural disasters.
These fucking cowards. The hate I have for these people is great but I do practice self care - I imagine dipping them in chicken grease and putting them in Alligator Auschwitz. It gives me happy thoughts.
Christopher Webb@cwebbonline.com · last yr.This is bullshit. Not only do ICE bounty hunters refuse to identify themselves, they won’t say where they’re taking the people they’re kidnapping. Deliberately shuffling detainees from facility to facility so families can’t find them & they miss their chance at legal counsel. (Anaheim, CA)
I want to dip them all in chicken grease and honey and send them to Alligator Auschwitz.

Jesus Christ. This is fucking awful. This is brutal. I don’t want to watch. But we must. We have to fight this. Fuck.
The Tennessee Holler @thetnholler.bsky.social · last yr.“family members identified the victim as Narciso Barranco, a father to three sons who are all U.S. Marines” ktla.com/news/local-n...
Please share this like lives hang in the balance because they do.
When I read this in 2020 I stopped being scared & started being prepared
Sarah Kendzior@sarahkendzior.bsky.social · 2y agoAn excerpt from my book HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT (2020) summing up the current situation:
The same thing is happening here in Waco. They arrest people on criminal charges, detain them and then within a week many of the criminal charges disappear from the system and all that’s left is “immigration detainer”. This shit it sick. I feel so helpless. www.huffpost.com/entry/cecot-...
Trump Sent Them To Hell. Now He's Erasing Them Altogether.
Dozens of U.S. CECOT detainees’ immigration cases have been dismissed – denying Trump’s victims their day in court.
