Comrades... please share out this meme. I plan to be at the Interstate Clinics, 7-9am each morning. Clackamas County folks could cluster on the Sunnyside picket line, Washington County at Westside, Salem at Lancaster and Vancouver at Cascade.

They had come earlier in the day and largely left by the time I had gotten there. Here’s our story recounting the full day yesterday:

Religious leaders denied request to deliver communion to detainees at Broadview facility

Hundreds of people joined a delegation of Catholic priests and nuns marching to the Broadview detention site to hold communion, but they were turned away with no reason given. A total of 15 protesters...

Humor, whimsy, levity = powerful tools in disproving the lies of the regime. We are not violent domestic terrorists. We are non-threatening Americans in silly costumes. This is how we make the regime look both extreme (bc they are) and show their claims are ridiculous.

Some messages are printed on 18-by-24-inch yard signs or smaller placards; others are drawn ornately by hand on paper or written in chalk. The few who will talk about the signs they created say the urgency of the moment compelled them to act.

Signs popping up around D.C. note: ‘ICE kidnapping happened here’

The signs range in style and mark numerous locations where people have been taken by federal agents.

7 meaningful ways to better protect our immigrant neighbors

Qasim Rashid, Esq. @qasimrashid.com · 16h

Corporate media has completely ignored that since January, the number of 287g agreements between ICE & local police has gone up nearly 4X. We need to repeal these.

I'm a human rights lawyer. I wrote this piece on how to protect ourselves from ICE fascists.

There were about 35 people total at the rally today at the Pride Crosswalk that Whitmire & Abbott are painting over. Showing up is solidarity. A lot of showing up will be needed in the very challenging days ahead. #Houston
