It’s almost a month since the Dec 19th deadline and millions of Epstein files still have not been released. Everything is important and needs attention, but the Epstein docs are what Trump is desperately trying to bury, sometimes using all of the other horrible stuff to do it.

A lot of communities have already organized ICE Watch networks, or they are organizing them presently. Might I suggest these *very same networks* can be used for election poll watching.
This is why we need communities to organize systems of election support for voters. We can’t let anyone feel alone and intimidated into not voting.

One of the things about people showing up to protest for the first time, that many, many armchair theorists don't grasp, is the effect of seeing what happens with your own eyes, then seeing how media covers it, and what is said ABOUT YOU by media and political personalities/office holders.

Congress must conduct robust oversight of the unprecedented deployment of over 2,000 federal agents to Minnesota and should investigate the fatal shooting of Renee Good by an ICE agent.

If you just say "Abolish ICE" you are saying there will not be accountability for the crimes committed by ICE. The ICE agents will then be rehired by other agencies.
Want to prevent future agents from doing what ICE is now?
Then demand this: PROSECUTE ICE!!

Despite being in the minority, Democrats have continued to deliver results for working families.
Last week, House Democrats passed a bill to extend the Affordable Care Act tax credits to ensure that every American can afford health care. Now, it's up to the Senate to get it over the finish line.

Let’s be clear: ICE is rounding up minors without informing parents. The president who was friends with the dead child sex trafficker and is pals with the living owner of the kiddie porn AI is running a child kidnapping operation.

Abolishing ICE is the moderate position, or it’s our job to make it the moderate position.
Abolition was impossible before it was common sense.
Civil rights were impossible before they it became common sense.
Abolishing ICE is possible and that's what we should push for.

Moderate Dems are just never going to get on board with abolish ICE, especially after abolish-coded rhetoric in 2020 mostly failed, and given their consistent conservatism on immigration enforcement. So might as well as at least try to figure out what other pathways are out there.

When you’ve never met a Black person.
Before Trump, law enforcement were trained to behave professionally. At a traffic stop they would start with words such as "Mam, may I see your drivers license and registration."
ICE evidently trains their goons to start a stop with screamed profanity, quickly followed by violence.
