Close your account with Wells Fargo—a company that has always valued profits over people, and now in the most insidious way.

Fun fact: I’ve got just the place you can open a new bank account at! Remember: Credit unions are beholden to their MEMBERS first.

The building is in a 27 million dollar foreclosure filed by Wells Fargo. The next day, Wells Fargo filed an emergency motion for receivership. The fascist regime kindly emptied the building for donor Wells Fargo.

Well, yeah, we're suing ICE.

This wasn't really a hard decision. As little faith as we have in institutions, we recognize the value of drawing visible lines in the sand. We drew ours personally a while ago, but better late than never.

May every protester be freed and may this occupation end.
