Not hearing enough noise about Mahmoud Khalil from folks who like to quote the "first they came for" poem. Y'all get that the point is that they came for controversial, easily othered groups first, right? Now, it's trans people, immigrants, and student activists. Your turn will come. Fight now.

Call your representative and senators, and tell them to demand that ICE/Kristi Noem:
- Identify what laws (if any) Khalil is charged with violating
- Provide Khalil with transparent due process

And nobody even thought to speak for them - maybe it's better this time, because people are speaking.
Maybe not.
I don't know the reason why he didn't include us in that poem; maybe he thought we deserved to go, maybe it wasn't general knowledge at the time that time.
But first, they came for the disabled, and the queers.
