It's not what the regime does,
it's HOW WE RESPOND
to their awful acts that determines the future of this nation.
We have all the power, they want us to think we don't. They can't make us obey. They can't make us surrender. If they try to take your rights, you must exercise them to defend them.

I get it. We don't want to discourage people from voting.
But do you really think they're going to leave just because we vote them out?
"Those elections were fraudulent, we're not swearing those people in."
We are going to have to be in Washington D.C. by the millions to take back power.

Leading American companies — including Palantir, Deloitte, and private prison giant GEO Group — raked in over $22B from ICE and CBP contracts last year.

Just got done with our hearing. We have another status hearing next month with a trial date (hopefully) in the spring.
It’s more important than ever to stand strong against ICE and with the people protesting it.
We’re fighting these charges and we’re going to win.

And frankly, I see it as the bare minimum in this moment.

Maher Tarabishi was detained in October during a scheduled check-in at an ICE facility.
He was the primary caretaker of his son, who died last week.
The family is seeking Maher's release so he can attend his son's funeral.
ICE reportedly denied the request.
Unimaginable cruelty.
