Economic boycotts are a tried-and-true tool for social change. Americans are becoming increasingly aware that the Trump administration's aggressive immigration crackdown is only possible because of corporate enablers #Velshi
A look at the corporations enabling ICE operations
Throughout history, economic boycotts have been a powerful tool for social and political change. Now, it's being employed as Americans seek ways to voice their opposition to the federal government's aggressive immigration crackdown and the corporations that work alongside the Trump administration in enabling it. Martin Luther King spoke of the "power of economic withdrawal," and it's a force with which Americans are using once again.

NO.
Congressional Republicans unveiled their new “MEGA Act” bill, which could:
❌Impose strict voter ID requirements to vote
❌Create a centralized voter surveillance system in every state
❌Ban universal mail voting
❌And much more
The kicker? These changes would happen all at once.

New GOP anti-voting bill may be the most dangerous attack on voting rights ever
The MEGA Act represents one of the most catastrophic proposals for democracy in the United States.

MORE concentration camps y'all.
This is a funny looking deescalation. Sure looks like they're ramping up their capacity to arrest, detain, deport, and terrorize Americans exercising their constitutional rights. Should Senate Dems give the regime the benefit of the doubt and agree to more funding for DHS?
BIG news from @bloomberg.com, which confirms that ICE has gone ahead and *purchased* multiple commercial warehouses with the aim of converting them into mass detention camps.
This is likely to be the big detention story of 2026 — literal warehousing of people.

ICE has awarded a contract to Constellis Holdings, the successor to the notorious mercenary firm Blackwater.
The contract is for "skip tracing" to hunt down 1.5 million immigrants—and offering bounties for their locations.
Using whatever surveillance tools they want—no badges, no oversight.

do you know how fucking pissed off minnesotans need to be to NOT help someone push their car out of the ditch? This is the midwest equivalent of banishing this ICE agent to hell
This morning in Minneapolis, an ICE vehicle got stuck on an icy hill in a residential neighborhood. Agents had to push the vehicles out, some almost slipping in the ice themselves.

I will be pushing for a moratorium on the construction of data centers that are powering the unregulated sprint to develop & deploy AI.
The moratorium will give democracy a chance to catch up, and ensure that the benefits of technology work for all of us, not just the 1%.

They’re following the Russian playbook.
There is a playbook here they appear to be following:
1) Break apart the government.
2) Crash the economy.
3) Sell government assets and bankrupt companies to billionaires for cheap.
4) Cement power for oligarchs and fascists.
But we the people will not allow this—we will resist, and we will win.

How 'shock therapy' created Russian oligarchs and paved the path for Putin
In the 1990s, reformers adopted a radical economic program in Russia. It devastated ordinary Russians and created a new class of oligarchs. And it explains the rise of Putin and the leader he is today
