Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

These agents should be fired and prosecuted. #AbolishICE
Remember her name: Aliya Rahman

Her testimony is everything and it deserves to be heard, by everyone. Decide for yourself.

It’s powerful. It’s gut-wrenching. And no one should have to survive what she did.

ICE MUST GO‼️

You don't have to ask for prizes or awards. If you deserve them, they'll come naturally.

Did you know baby shampoo is mild enough, when used with water, to rinse eyes if they've been sprayed? Like when walking on or around ICE?

We need to be careful and listen to this ophthalmologist about pepper spray.

As far as I know, Tom Suozzi here still does not have a primary challenger in his district (NY-3 on Long Island).

The filing deadline is April 6 for the primary on June 23, and if there's a remotely progressive town council member or PTA president in that district, this is the time to make a move.
Confronted Congressman Tom Suozzi, one of seven Democrats casting the decisive votes to increase ICE funding by $10,000,000,000.

Am I missing something? I don’t see a ring.
Anyone know who the executioner is?
Hope he’s not so hot tempered with his wife/husband. Anyone recognize the ring?

Once this person is identified (which, I assume, will happen today), he should immediately become unemployable.
"You raise your voice, I erase your voice."

ICE in Minneapolis are erasing your rights.

Today, Ukraine's rescue community suffered a painful loss. During emergency response work at an energy facility in Kyiv, Oleksandr Pytaichuk, a high-angle rescuer was killed.

He stood between chaos and normal life — so homes could have light and heat. Oleksandr was only 31...

A former sniper reviews ICE shooting video to reveal that an ICE-hole disarmed the victim and then accidentally discharged the weapon, causing the rest of these untrained, dumbasses to start pumping bullets into the unarmed victim on the ground!

I have no words for this:

“The goalkeeper told me I’m an illegal immigrant even though I was born in America, and he said Trump was gonna get me and send me back.”

How is destroying the spirit of our children making this country great?

Who will repair their trauma when this is over?

Sickening.

@schumer.senate.gov Is there no one who realizes that the armed militias named ICE are Trump’s new crowd for insurrection on 1/6/2029? They’re a huge mob and ready. ICE moderation is a joke. Dismantle now!
