I feel like I should treat these anti-ICE stickers like an Easter egg hunt and see how many I can find in my neighborhood. This makes three so far.

I chuckled seeing these this morning, in large part because the pole is across the street from our Maga neighbor who got creamed in the recent city council race. I'm surprised she hasn't run her Trump flag back up her pole yet (she took it down when she announced her campaign).

Why isn't news of Trump building vast concentration camps being treated as a national emergency?

We're here at the anti-ICE demo at Boise City Hall in solidarity with Minneapolis and in support of Alex Pretti, who was murdered by the state yesterday.

How to know if civilian has a gun when agents have not seen a gun:

1) take to ground
2) check for gun
3) if gun found, take it from holster
4) have one agent run away with gun
5) shoot civilian multiple times
6) count the bullet holes
7) double check count
8) allow medical assistance to enter area

This is absolutely true.
“Kamala warned us!”

Motherfucker, no she did not.

Please stop this revisionist bullshit.

She ran on signing into law more funding for DHS, and supporting ICE.

Please focus on the people being murdered on the fucking streets by Trump’s personal military.

1. Wasn’t at a protest
2. Was disarmed when they shot him while he was face down
3. New gun rights rule: the second amendment is when conservatives can carry guns everywhere, but if anyone else has a gun we can kill him on sight

KARL: He was an ICU use who worked for the VA and there's no evidence he brandished the gun whatsoever

BESSENT: But he brought a gun

KARL: I mean, we do have a Second Amendment

BESSENT: I've been to a protest -- guess what? I didn't bring a gun. I brought a billboard

It is so odd to have my comment section full of people using the r-slur and being overtly transphobic towards me while also arguing “I don’t get Star Trek”. Just wild cognitive dissonance thinking.

ICE killing #AlexPretti should remind you of police killing #PhilandoCastille. Both men had concealed weapon permits, did not draw their guns, & were killed in Minn. These homicides are the price of unaccountable policing. These deaths are variations on the same fatal theme.

Murphy on Bovino: "That was a bone-chilling interview. I was shaking while I was listening to it, in large part bc it takes just an unbelievable amount of gall to lie to the American public. Everybody saw that video ... it should freak the public out that the Trump administration lies this easily"

This event is at noon today for any interested in attending.

We talked to 5 people who are considering attending. All want to support Minneapolis, honor Alex Pretti, and call to end ICE. One wonders what PSL is doing for a strike fund if they want to expand the strike meaningfully. Half are going.
