Our Signal group is preparing for ICE, but we don’t know when they’ll arrive or where they’ll come from. People are terrified.

I honestly can’t believe how many of these kinds of letters I’ve seen this week — in places I didn’t expect to see them.
It’s not too late. Write a letter to the editor!

When politicians see the letters to the editor full of people saying, "ICE murdered that woman in cold blood; we all saw it happen!" that shifts them. They're also heavily read by the normiest of normie Boomer types.

It’s been heartening to see letters to the editor in small towns and red counties across the state this week.

It felt really good to call Target customer service today and cancel my Target Circle card. (Haven’t patroned in ages. Still had the card.)
“What is the reason for canceling your card?”
“Target’s cooperation with ICE.”
God it felt so good. Highly recommend.

The story about the Mexican restaurant in Willmar, MN has wrecked me.
I mean, everything is wrecking me, obviously.
But this… I don’t know. It’s so Jim Crow. It’s so disturbing. It’s so heartbreaking.
Please don’t forget about our small towns. ICE is out here, too.

@statuscoupnews.bsky.social interviewing this woman in Minneapolis right now who said she came out of her home, wearing whatever she could grab to protect herself from ICE agents. You do what you can, with what you got.

Explained to one of my oldest and dearest friends on planet earth today that whistles are not “too much”.
Don’t assume everyone who is mad about what’s happening is also adequately informed about what’s happening and how we need to respond.

Old college friends, coworkers, people in our book clubs or church congregations.
We know people who think what is happening is wrong but will not take any action and we need to be part of helping people close the gap between values and actions.

Wrote a letter to the editor that was published today.
I also sent an email to my mom.
Guess which one has my palms sweating?
Some of us need to do the hardest thing of all right now: talk to our own people.

Speaking for myself, I’ve been more willing to face off with police than be the person in the friend group who rocks the boat and makes direct asks of people. That is still cowardly, imo.
I don’t want to be a coward in this moment.

It has now been one week since a masked man shot and killed an American mother of three in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
And for all intents and purposes, the shooter, and his accomplices, remain at large.

Bad headline. Bad image choice. C’mon, @apnews.com! Show agents chucking gas all over residential streets, smashing into cars, macing peaceful protesters from 6 inches away, shoving people standing on sidewalks into roads. ”Squaring off”?! Tell the goddamn truth. Better yet—SHOW it.

It’s crucial to recognize this is not hypocrisy. People in power don’t actually want to regulate the business models of these big tech companies, they want to use liberals/leftists rightful anger at big tech to pass sweeping surveillance/censorship laws while letting these companies profit

Keep putting pressure on our officials. They are not going to stop ICE with police, but they are not powerless.
But also know this: We are all we’ve got.

Anyone wondering why “we” can’t just arrest “them” needs to get familiar with the thin blue line and the FOP.

Police jump outs happen every single day, multiple times a day, across the country. Please understand that these kinds of tactics are in no way "new." This is just policing in the US.
