As Minneapolis Rages, Legislators Move to Restrict ICE in Their States
Where my state originally was all "we won't get involved with fed activities, they've finally ovaried up. I'm hoping they follow PA's ideas and establish laws against ICE. And NOT allow a detention facility nearby.

Golly, gee, Mr. Judge. Did anyone think that this fascist regime was going to follow court orders? Anyone? Anyone?

Some people don’t (yet) understand the significance of this moment. There is now NO RESTRAINT on the fascists. Congress, courts can pass laws or issue orders but the fascists won’t obey them.
Stop focusing on laws, politicians or elections.
Now WE THE PEOPLE must END the regime. Ourselves.

Way to go, Philadelphia! The city has introduced new legislation putting real limits on ICE activity. Federal agents will no longer be allowed to operate anonymously no masks, visible identification required, and arrests must be backed by warrants signed by a federal judge.

Liam Ramos is also experiencing stomach pain, vomiting, fever and a complete loss of appetite, made worse by poor-quality food in detention. Attorneys who have visited the facility say the children inside are mentally broken.

Liam is in ICE custody and his health is deteriorating.
Joaquin Castro says Liam is depressed, lethargic, sleeping excessively and barely eating, repeatedly asking about his mom, and when he can go home. He’s withdrawn and not the bright preschooler he was just days ago.

This old fartbox in the oval office HATES everyone: his family, his friends, his constituents, his rape victims, his toilets and his showers. He will NEVER be appeased. He threatened MTG's life before she resigned. His minions wear blood on their faces as they watch him wage a war against Americans.

I know all eyes are on Minneapolis, but there's a fast-approaching nightmare in Springfield, Ohio.
Trump is revoking protected status for tens of thousands of Haitians living there on Feb. 3.
Reportedly, on Feb. 4, 1000 ICE agents are arriving to remove this population. Ethnic cleansing.

This COUNTRY has become Chile in the 80s. Rape, torture disappearances.
HOW many of us need to die before we rise up and demand change?
Senators say they will vote NO on ICE. We shall see. I can only hope that they defund it entirely and then figure out how much Noem, Homan (not human) STOLE.
