I would expect just exactly that from our CHILD RAPIST PRESIDENT.

But …

What comes around goes around.

When our CHILD RAPIST PRESIDENT dies, expect our celebrations to go on for days, weeks, maybe even months.

And any republican silent now has no grounds to object to our celebrations then.

Trumpublicans refuse to accept any truth, even those they see with their own eyes unless they get approval from our CHILD RAPIST PRESIDENT to do so.

Orwell had trumpublicans defined quite accurately.

We’ve fallen pretty far from these high ideals here in what used to be the United States of America.

One pushback might be to use something like an Amber Alert to report possible ICE abductions.

This might eventually compel ICE to admit who they’ve taken - but also alert the public to abductions that
put people in vulnerable circumstances (like children) in danger by taking away their caregivers.

And I’ve got IceBlock loaded on my phone.

But unless you have it already loaded it’s not available any more.

ICE Alerts will have a wider audience.

6 states, D.C. & five U.S. territories are already majority-minority, with 122 votes in the Electoral College.

11 states are less than 60% Caucasian Non-Hispanic & heading towards majority-minority status, with 151 votes in the Electoral College.

That’s 273 votes, enough to elect a President.

One small step might be to use something like Amber Alerts to report ICE abductions.

This might eventually compel ICE to acknowledge who they’ve taken. It would also alert the community that some people (like children) may be in precarious circumstances when their caregivers were abducted.

So far the answer is NO.

We have boutique protests every other month or so and whine incessantly but as far as DOING anything Americans appear to be too comfortable on our couches to get out and peacefully protest often enough to have an impact.

Meanwhile they consolidate their American Reich.

Good!

Governor Walz, if you’re not already doing so might I suggest using Brandon's Law to report suspected ICE abductions.

This might compel ICE to more promptly admit abductions as well as help locate any children at risk when their caregiver(s) are taken.

Amber Alerts were created to help abducted children.

These alerts are run at the state or local level. Some places have created Silver Alerts for seniors.

Ten states even have alerts for vulnerable or missing people.

Why not adapt or create an ICE Alert system to report abductions?

How long must we put up with half measures, let’s just do what Bernie has been saying for YEARS !!!

We established Amber Alerts to help abducted children.

Amber Alerts are run locally and some also have Silver Alerts for missing seniors.

Ten states also have Alerts for vulnerable or missing people.

Why not use those systems to report ICE abductions??

3/ Third, any damage inflicted by ICE on our alert systems in retaliation damages our ability to help protect vulnerable people like children - which they will own.

This Wikipedia page on Silver Alerts has links to many state programs:

2/ First, it widely reports the extent of the ICE overreach problem. The more people that know the better.

Second, it may compel ICE to confirm their abductions publicly per person. Otherwise the alerts stay active. Tracking which alerts are deleted is an implicit confirmation of an abduction.
