Begging you not to let Wael’s Tarabishi’s story get lost amidst all the horrors.
He was a 30 year old disabled man. His dad was his full time caregiver.
ICE took his dad away.
Wael said it would kill him. He said the fear was “real & immediate”.

Ellison: "The Bondi letter reveals what this is all about. This is not about fraud and it's not even about immigration, and it's certainly not about law enforcement. It's about handing over documents of the state of Minnesota, private information, including voting information, to the federal govt."

Abolish ICE is not enough.
Stern words for Greg Bovino or Kristi Noem is not enough.
We need prosecutions and trials.
Anything short of this position fails to address the gravity of this moment.

"ICE will leave Minnesota if you hand over your voter rolls" tells you everything you need to know.
This was never about immigration or fraud. It was always about rigging elections.

This family did every single thing they’ve been asked to in order to seek asylum here.
Yet in less than 24 hours, this kid and his Dad were nabbed off our streets and sent to Texas, using tactics that can only be described as pure evil.

A man was choked so hard that his blood vessels burst in his eyelids and his death was ruled a homicide.
This is a rogue agency. It needs to be torn down and replaced with a new federal agency that respects human and constitutional rights and has civil rights oversight.

ICE is a secret police force. No warrants. No courts. No lawyers. And no appeals. People vanish in the night, not because they broke the law, but because the law no longer means anything. The knock on the door is the sentence.

If you're one of the 188 Republicans and 153 Democrats who voted last week to send $3.3B more in military and bombs to Netanyahu as he commits genocide, do not be quoting Dr. MLK this week, who specifically condemned the triple evils of racism, poverty, and militarism.

The disabled were one of the first groups targeted by the Nazis.
The Aktion 4 program labelled us “useless eaters”
They knew people wouldn’t fight for the disabled.
They knew they would see us as “expendable”.
Remember this every time ICE grabs someone with disabilities .
