Went from a black majority city (dc) to a hispanic majority city (san antonio) and white people weren't being massacred in either. But that doesn't let you fantasize about or justify mass murder, so bsky.app/profile/polp...

"Abolishing ICE is not enough. They must be held accountable."

This is the best messaging I have seen yet from a politician.
It was not "domestic terrorism.” It was state sanctioned violence.

A family will forever live with the pain caused by the admin's reckless and deadly actions.

ICE needs to not get a single fucking dollar in this funding package. You cannot continue to allow these people to have money to murder people and terrorize the populace.

The longer this goes on and the longer the masked terror squads are institutionalized, the more extreme pain its going to require to do anything about them.

WOMEN are doing the vast majority of the front-line organizing against ICE, the vast majority of the front-line reporting, the vast majority of the legal observing, the vast majority of the care work, the vast majority of the corking and safety volunteering. It's so often women who are being killed.
Renee Good, who was murdered in cold blood today by ICE, was a queer woman. June "T-Rex" Knightly, who was murdered in Portland, was a queer woman. The ICE detainees who were sexually assaulted in Louisiana are queer women and trans men.

Urgent: Congress is considering a proposal to fund additional ICE detention beds.

Trump's 2025 Reconciliation Bill already gave ICE $45B, making detention deadlier. More money would only worsen the crisis.

There is absolutely no reason for Dems to vote for GOP nominees, to facilitate the smooth operation of Congress, nor to withhold impeachment of the President and his appointees. Do it all.
Here’s some things that can be done by a party out of power

- file impeachment articles every day in the House

- withhold unanimous consent in the senate and filibuster every nominee

- be everywhere with comms saying this is lawless and impeachable

Hot damn! Sounds good to me.
Better yet, disestablish all of DHS, and undo the nightmarish idiocies that we created in a panic 25 years ago. Reestablish the INS, get rid of ODNI, fix the damage from the Patriot Act, etc.
For the love of all that is decent and holy: abolish ICE

I keep saying it. But they’d rather just tweet.

Also, get the hell off Twitter. Tonight!
Every damn Democratic congressperson should be physically standing together on the steps of the Capitol and demanding an end to this deadly abuse. Are they really unable to fight back against this despicable propaganda used to justify the killing by ICE and supported by Noem and Trump?

I’m glad to see Bill say this. But when after a century of just the type of abuse we saw today - relentless and cruel, ensnaring our children and intimidating our communities - young Black people said in frustration, anger, and demand for change “defund the police” - so many of you denounced them.

ICE has increased its spending on weapons by more than 600 percent, according to an analysis of federal government contracting data by Popular Information.

The $71.5 million spent so far has paid mostly for guns, armor, and chemical munitions.

Sometimes there aren’t silver linings, but very clear objectives and I hope it’s been made incredibly clear that white supremacy will destroy this country if there isn’t a consistent push towards a true multiracial, multicultural democracy. They’ll kill
everybody, if you let them.

A year ago today was the start of violent, terrorizing raids in California’s rural Central Valley. Violent federal agents were hunting down farm workers like animals.

Today, they’re in the streets of Minneapolis. Our communities should not be enduring this. None of us are safe until all of us are.

A Black man named Keith Porter was shot and killed by an ICE officer on New Year’s Eve.

Marimar Martinez was shot five times by an ICE officer in Chicago who went on to brag about leaving seven holes in her body.

This is not new but it is expanding.
Your reminder that what happened to Renee Nicole Good is something that happens regularly in America. This is not new, but it is an expanded version of militarized people targeting Black people in particular.

From ICE detention to murder with impunity, we've been doing it. Now it's broadened.
