Amid growing calls for the abolition of ICE, Rep. Delia Ramirez is calling for the entire DHS to be dismantled. Highlighting how much experience the officers who killed Renee Good and Alex Pretti had, Ramirez said, “DHS was built to violate our rights and has been empowered to act with impunity.”
House Democrat Says Abolishing ICE Isn’t Enough — DHS Must Go, Too

GENIUS.

Dems, can you please start doing this, like, NOW?

Every time a public official lies in your presence, hold up a sign, notecard, etc. with the 2+2 = 4 equation.

Don't acknowledge it, don't explain it, don't even react if the GOP starts joking about your math skills. Just make it a meme.
I would love to see '2 + 2 = 4' become a common meme of the resistance. A rebuke of Orwells 1984 double speak.

I hope you'll read this statement from Alex Pretti’s family.

None of us should allow the Trump administration to lie about this man. Help get the truth out.

Seriously... I loved the movie "My Fellow Americans" back in the 90s, but now it just hurts to watch.
Watching another show where big climax is "we release the information showing how corrupt the politician is and then he goes to jail and good triumphs!" And the suspension of disbelief required for this to work for me now is on par with: "a flying unicorn came down from Valhalla and killed him."

And by the way, the number for the Capitol Switchboard is (202) 224-3121 - just call that number and ask for your Congressperson's office.
Stop what you’re doing and read this whistleblower report. ICE has been training its agents that they don’t need a judicial warrant to break down your door - a blatant violation of the 4th Amendment. www.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

Well, that's a bitch. Instead of taking my sister laptop shopping this weekend, I had to chip in at the emergency dentist so she can get her cracked tooth fixed. 😭

Sure felt good to be able to deal with a surprise expense without panicking, though.

If you work for ice please understand that your kids will laugh at a character based on you dying in an action movie before the end of the decade. They’ll be in movies for really little kids. Like Phineas and Ferb shit. There will be an action figure of you with a detachable head

Eeek! I guess that was one way to find out if this legal-aid hotline is still good. It was very nice of them to call me back and make sure I was OK, but me bobbling my cellphone and hitting the wrong contact isn't much of an emergency. 😳

Here's how it works. They post an offensive take expressing their political stance. You get offended and share it with your take attached. Their take gets spread virally the way they hoped when they posted it.

But the way I feel for trumpers is the way they feel about the LGBT+
Like.... I don't get why you chose to live like that. And I dont get why we have to see it on TV and I DEF don't want them in schools with our children.
