We are at an inflection point. Americans are fighting back peacefully-thousands in Minnesota last week & millions across the country last fall. AFT members will stand up again for No Kings on March 28. Our communities are hurting & people deserve a gov’t that listens www.politico.com/news/2026/01...

After over a month of waging kinetic and psychological war on Minnesota using federal agents, resulting in thousands of victims of harassment, kidnapping and violence—and two extrajudicial executions—the Trump regime blinked. At least a little.

Schumer is the kind of 'leader' that will take today's news and rationalize caving on funding DHS. Now is a critical moment to keep up the pressure. Contact your Senators and demand that they do not fund DHS.
@indivisible.org @andreachalupa.bsky.social @5calls.org @resist.bot
No one fucking understands "restrain, reform, and restrict." It's weak-ass bullshit. Everyone knows what "abolish" means and what you stand for. Jesus fuck, Schumer, read the fuckin' room.
Honestly any Dem who gets on board with this ChatGPT like "restrain, reform and restrict" messaging written up by some cowardly messaging flack in DC for Schumer/Dems - should kiss his or her presidential or any higher aspirations good bye.

Really important to call your senators if you haven’t already and tell them unequivocal no for money to DHS and no on reforms. They haven’t voted yet and already have history of caving. Also tell them no one believes in Schumer, he has led the party to defeat after defeat & his strategies suck ass.
Majority of the country now wants to abolish and/or dismantle ICE and yet Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y. told the caucus the message had to be to “restrain, reform and restrict ICE.”

Once again it looks like Schumer is about to choke after getting a massive opportunity.

So pathetic and weak.

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”

That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

Let’s flood it with questions about their relationship with #ICE and how @OpenAI is enabling the Trump administration.

This is like how the Catholic Church passed known pedophiles from parish to parish
CBP chief Bovino has confirmed that the officers who executed Alex Pretti in the street yesterday are not only *not on administrative leave,* they have all been reassigned to other jurisdictions and are all on the street today.

This is totally unheard of for any officer-involved shooting

Is there any group activated against the NY Dem chair and/or Jeffries and Schumer? Looking to follow and amplify their efforts.
If you want to know what people mean when they say Democrats are "controlled opposition," rather than whipping votes against ICE funding, Hakeem Jeffries struck a deal with Republicans to allow Democrats to feign outrage at ICE while still funding the spending package.

Good had a pulse after the shooting. But ICE Gestapo's first reaction was Hide-hide-hide bluster-bluster-hide.

So their response killed her.
Eight minutes matters.
A pulse matters.
Denied medical care matters.

Doctors don’t speak out like this for politics or optics. They speak out when a line is crossed, when an oath is violated, when someone who could have been helped is instead left to die.

It’s utterly vile they have to do this.

This claim ignores history. NATO’s mutual defense clause has been invoked only once — after 9/11, to defend the United States. Our allies fought, bled, and stayed for nearly 20 years. The record is clear. When America was attacked, NATO showed up.
Trump: "The big fear I have with NATO is we spend tremendous amounts of money with NATO and I know we'll come to their rescue, but I just really do question whether or not they'll come to ours. Just saying."

Abolish ICE. Destroy their weapons and melt down their equipment. Deny their agents, employees, and bosses all government employment for all time. Remove the agency entirely from the budget and give the money to public libraries and free health care.

The political ground is shifting on ICE. Your own Dem rep or senator may not have caught up yet. Now - before the 1/30 funding deadline - is the time to push.
