To be clear, we were thousands of regular folks at an entirely non-violent march that passed by the ICE building. They let loose chemical agents on families with little children. Elderly in wheelchairs. For no reason. The cruelty was the point. Attempting to provoke a riot was the point.
ICE just tear-gassed the shit out of the entirely peaceful union protest here in Portland. Children. Elderly. Thousands of people exercising our First Amendment rights.

I just happened to drive up to an intersection as the ride came through and shut the road down. It was at least ten minutes before it thinned enough for me to drive across between groups. Beautiful thing to see in my neighborhood <3
The group bike ride for Alex Pretti is about to depart in Minneapolis, stopping at his memorial, then Renee Good’s, and finishing at the VFW. If you can join, hop on anywhere. It’s a warm 17° & sunny!
I’ve never seen this many cyclists for a group ride. ⚡️✊🏽⚡️🚲⚡️✊🏽⚡️ #RIPPretti

It's near-white out conditions in Chicago as the snow comes down, and tonight's anti-ICE/CBP rally is wrapping up in front of city hall.
But not before the crowd bounces and chants, "I believe that we will win!"

Every day. I think about this speech every single day.
The operation of the machine is so odious. It makes me so sick at heart.
We can't take part. We can't even passively take part.

Trump is controlling EVERYONE with fear. Politicians, foreign nations, universities, industries. "What if he does something to me?"
Well, what if he does?! Is that the worst thing anyone has ever experienced? Time in jail? A court fight? You lose your job? Is that worth your god-given free will

Donald Trump wants to distract you from what ICE is doing so badly that he permitted the release of millions of pages of Epstein files.
If that doesn't work, he'll go to war with Iran.
The Democrats are negotiating milquetoast "restrictions" on ICE.
But only grassroots resistance will save us.

Remember, WE HAVE NOT WON YET!
ICE is still kidnapping and terrorizing in the Twin Cities and all around the country.
Democrats are scheming to squander the advantage that Good and Pretti paid for with their lives.
All out to the Twin Cities!
Keep fighting! 🏴

All I am saying is if I had inflicted a plague of bigoted grifters onto my country and had gotten filthy rich doing it, I would be at a fucking minimum out there calling them out and helping take them down.

I get tired of saying it, but I’ll say it again: the nature of oppression in America is that they workshop it first on Black, Latino, Asian & Native people.
But it is always, in the end, coming for everyone.

The arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort are a test for every MSM member with a platform. If you are not voicing your outrage at this blatant violation of the First Amendment, you are utterly discredited as a journalist.

The Kansas bathroom bill applies to state government buildings. State Rep. Abi Boatman, a Wichita Democrat who is trans, was selected to fill a vacant seat earlier this month and it's believed this bill was specifically targeted at her. Disgusting and hateful.

I know people are understandably scared, but are we going to keep doing this every five months? This is not a broad coalition. This is four groups who never gave up and a bunch of small groups. This isn't new or interesting, and it actually says more that no actually powerful groups are involved.

Bad things are happening for trans people in Kansas...
It plainly invalidates all driver's licenses held by trans people if they've changed their gender markers. It requires them to turn those licenses over.
They don't have a list to check but now any out trans person could be ratted out by family, friends or coworkers and have their licenses revoked.
