ICE agents shooting & then standing over Alex Pretti as he bleeds out is the same as IDF soldiers shooting & then standing over 14-year-old Jadallah Jadallah as he bleeds out.
We are here because two, 2024 Dem presidential candidates preferred this harrowing parallel to an arms embargo on Israel.

Donald Trump won this district in Louisiana by 13 points in 2024.
The Democrat just crushed a Republican extremist in this district by 24 points.
Folks, that’s a 37 point swing to the left. We can compete everywhere and win anywhere. Let’s keep this up!

ICE has grabbed so many people from their vehicles that there are abandoned cars across Minnesota.
This tow truck driver returns the cars for free as a public service, and he’s been getting death threats.
They hate the helpers.
Which is why must keep helping.

There have been many successful campaigns to stop the construction of jails and prisons in rural areas. They have mostly relied on a combination of environmental, abolitionist, and Indigenous activists. (see also the fight in the Everglades)

I’m just going to start using the terms Democratic Fascists and Republican Fascists. They are much more accurate terms.
Democrats want commonsense reform for ICE:
End the roving patrols and racial profiling.
Take accountability and abide by the same rules as local police.
Masks need to come off, body cameras need to stay on—no secret police in the United States of America.

This is the kind of leadership we need.
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.
