I don't think people understand how violent ICE has been against US citizens. They are just beating the shit out of people for sport now.

The mayors of Portland and Lewiston have released media statements about ICE planning to send agents to both cities.

It's important to have a plan if interacting with ICE, whether on the street, at work, or in your neighborhood.

Restaurant workers, here's a good guide. PLEASE read it.

Arnoldo Bazan, a 16-year-old U.S. citizen, was put in a chokehold by ICE agents.

Agents took his phone, which he tracked to a used electronics vending machine near an ICE detention center.

Yes: ICE is stealing and selling people’s things after brutalizing them. There are no words.

On the bright side there were a bunch of Sara Gideon 2020 campaign refunds in Q4.

Want a good grasp on where the current admin and ICE madness in America is headed, if left unopposed?

Read through @joshuafaile.bsky.social's quoted post and excellent thread below.

Don't think it won't happen. Most Americans never thought what's happening now would ever happen here, either.
SUMMARY: The Gestapo’s function was to identify and eliminate real or perceived threats to the Nazi regime, enforcing total political and ideological conformity through surveillance, repression, and terror.

I hope this helps to clarify why I—and many others—call DHS/ICE the ‘American Gestapo’.
🧵: For those that question the comparison of ICE to the Gestapo, here is a list of the Gestapo’s functions and actions under the Nazi regime:

• Identifying, monitoring, arresting, and interrogating enemies of the regime.

• Operating outside judicial oversight, imprisoning people without trial.
