Am I crazy? Has no one else made that connection? Is this normal? Why is this not making headlines along with the arrests? Where is the outrage?

The people need to understand this and disregard progressive & leftist accounts throwing tantrums because they’re afraid & can’t own what they’ve done to bring us here. Denigrating the Democratic Party is voter suppression. If we want to regain majorities in the House & Senate don’t amplify them.

I’m pretty sure some of you have come to this conclusion. If you’re not about the business of dismantling white supremacy that birthed systemic racism. You’re not what people like to call themselves “allies” co-conspirators understand and commit to this work.

First and foremost this is an excellent article.

Secondly, all white people need to stop asking Black people what they can do and immediately sign up for ICE Watch. Stop telling us how mad you are and put some fucking skin in the game. If you’re following me. Get to it.

K thanks bye.
For @msnownews.bsky.social, I wrote an article about how ICE Watch is grounded in sociological theories of violence prevention.

The reality is that most men will only commit public violence in extremely specific scenarios and ICE Watch disrupts the conditions necessary for escalation.
Opinion | I'm a Minneapolis sociologist who studies violence. Here's how ICE observers are helping.
Research into how violence occurs shows that disapproval from the people around you can help reduce it.

Y’all keep telling yourselves “comfortable lies” America will never have Medicare for All or any form of Universal Healthcare until white people dismantle systemic racism.

Bernie Sanders, the guy who stands in the way of progress wants you lecture you on anything is bs. He just loves hearing himself talk and has no plans or congressional coalition to accomplish anything. His 30+ yr career of basically no meaningful achievements is the evidence.

#ICE
Headed to DHS to attempt to correct one of the more devastating I.C.E. kidnappings I’ve encountered.

I put our chance of success at about 25% because ICE and DHS are straight-up not following the law.

Could use all the luck and support you can offer:
