Abolish ICE.

There’s no reforming it.

There’s no compromise.

There’s only one way to rein in ICE’s terror campaign. Abolish it.

This can’t be repeated enough. Not only won’t they investigate, they may never even tell us who did this.

Think about the message that sends to the next ones. Nobody is safe.

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum.

Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum.

Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum.

ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.

If you're a soldier in the 11th Airborne Division being ordered to prep for deployment to Minnesota or Greenland, remember that you have the right to apply for conscientious objector status.

Incredibly emotional to hear my poem has been turned into a song of resistance and is being sung in Minneapolis right now. Please do not give up.

over the course of 1871, congress held seven months of hearings on ku klux klan and other white vigilante violence in the south, they took detailed testimony from hundreds of black men and women attesting to klan terror. (1/?)

People are skeptical about the decline in numbers of people who read books in the U.S. but you only need to talk with high schoolers to see that it's not overblown. It's part of the reason that the revival of zines is important IMO because they make reading and writing less daunting.

If you substitute 'child' for the various drug references in Maduro's indictment, it could also be used for him.

Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

I get a lot of good ideas in the shower and today I thought about an app called “Primary Everyone,” in which you could put in your voting district to see who sucks ass the worst and when you can fire them

4 grounding questions [if useful at this moment]:

1. What resources exist so I can better educate myself [about x issue]?
2. Who's already doing work around this injustice?
3. Do I have the capacity to offer concrete support & help to them?
4. How can I be constructive?

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it.

The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait.

At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.

Gaza is starving. This isn’t the result of a natural disaster, this is man-made, this is forced starvation. Aid is being restricted and used as bait for massacre. We are witnessing genocide. We are witnessing a Holocaust.

I keep seeing people say things like, “Well we’re not going to HAVE elections,” and with all due respect, I think this is both wildly pessimistic and also wildly naive.

We are not going to have free and fair elections. We also have not had them in the past.

You can spend time arguing over the difference between shutting down FEMA & rebranding it but the reality is that the Trump admin has already dismantled FEMA to the point that it could not efficiently respond to a relatively small disaster in a state with a relatively large capacity EM system.

🚨NEW: When ICE raided a Californian farm yesterday, they snatched & disappeared a disabled US veteran who was in his car.

They smashed his window, peppered sprayed him & dragged him to the floor.

Listen to his wife & sister here, distraught. No-one will tell them where he is.

Our hearts are heavy for the grieving family of Jaime Alanis, who died from injuries sustained during a chaotic raid on Thursday.

We will do everything we can to support them. We continue to work with the hundreds of farm worker families navigating the aftermath of this violent raid.

I just left the Everglades Immigrant Interment Camp. No, I’m not using their ridiculous name. It was a very tough to witness humans in those cages. Every Floridian should be ashamed that our taxpayer money is being used for this.

This is such a critical point that can be tough to make without seeming to minimize the current disaster. This event had a very high death toll for a U.S. disaster and the impacts are severe but in terms of total number of people directly affected and the geographic scope, it’s on the smaller size.
As horrible as the Guadeloupe River flash flood was, it was an isolated small scale event.

FEMA couldn’t even handle that.

Imagine the call volume that’ll be generated (and not answered) when a major hurricane hits a populated area, possibly just weeks from now.
I do not know how disaster survivors will ever make it through recovery in this administration — many couldn’t do it when there were people who cared in power— it’s infinitely worse now.
