ICE stormed a residence hall at Augsburg University, detained an undergrad, and aimed rifles at students and staff then admitted they had no warrant to be on campus.

This is state violence. This is terror. And this is exactly what Trump’s America unleashes on our communities.

5. diseases are allowed to run rampant through their schools

I'm so tired of this shit. I'm exhausted. I wish everyone would stop what they're doing and write a trans solidarity letter to a politician. ANY politician. But I know hardly anyone wants to make time or get involved. It's all bullshit.

Trump calling Somalis "garbage" en route to a literal militarized purge of the community is a real litmus test for Democratic party politicians. Imagine being so worthless that they can't find time even to speak up about it.

Armed masked DHS Population Control agents force their way past a gate & onto private property, pushing past the residents saying they don't need a warrant b/c it's just a "knock and talk" & they're not going inside. NOT HOW THIS WORKS, TRESPASSERS. Get a warrant or go to jail.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

There is a problem when the government can charge you with belonging to a fictitious organization with no supporting evidence that then confers terrorist label to your sentencing. It is especially troublesome for an administration know to lie and misrepresent the truth frequently
