No, Chuck, what you need is an immediate response: Quorum calls, points of order, and refusals of unanimous consent on EVERYTHING. No votes on ALL confirmations. Reading of the record every day. Deny, delay, obstruct on EVERYTHING. You know, what you should have been fucking doing all along.

In the past week, a union leader has been arrested, a U.S. Rep charged with a crime, a U.S. Senator violently handcuffed, and reporters shot with rubber bullets and detained. There is no ambiguity. This is a regime operating as an authoritarian. Americans who believe in liberty must oppose it.

I can’t believe I have to say this again do not follow what these Democrats are saying and for the love of God, do not sit down at a rally where they are charging you with horses and shooting into the crowd because they will shoot you in the head and kill you. Do not sit down at a mass protest.

WAPO poll finds most people (52%) do not approve of Trump’s immigration policy — including deportations. Only 37% approve. That is a negative 15 percentage-point margin on "an issue that was a strong point for him a few months ago." wapo.st/4e5mhr2

What to say to ICE: Never open your door unless shown a judicial warrant. Repeat: AND THAT’S NOT A JUDICIAL WARRANT!” Do not say where you are "from" Repeat: “I will not answer any questions” “Your presence is disrupting our [business, class, meeting, worship service] and you need to leave now”

We need to keep reminding these fascists who are ramping up anti-immigrant sentiment that unauthorized presence in the United States IS NOT A CRIME. People being arrested and deported simply for not having authorization to be present in the US are not committing a crime.

“We are now faced with the fact that tomorrow is today. We are confronted with the fierce urgency of now. In this unfolding conundrum of life and history, there “is” such a thing as being too late. This is no time for apathy or complacency. This is a time for vigorous and positive action” ― MLK Jr

Florida child welfare officers found a 17-year-old living in a shed with no food or water. They sent him to a foster home... and then reported him to ICE, whereupon he was handcuffed and shackled and marched to detention. Not only is that victimizing him again, it violates Florida's own rules.

All nationalisms are “disaster nationalisms” as Richard Seymour terms the present moment. All nationalisms put up a wall around some (racialized) people and decide they are “The People” and everyone else is not. All nationalisms bend toward fascism. Rejecting nationalisms is key to our freedom

Florida welfare authorities have turned over a 17-year-old foster child to ICE. He has already been separated from his mother, who was deported. He may have been the victim of labor trafficking. Yet, he was taken from his foster home in shackles. A minor. www.miamiherald.com/news/politic...

Make no mistake, Trump’s “Third World lawlessness” in LA = “there should be no non-white people with any rights or voice in the usa” Fascism, if it is to come to the usa, will ride in on anti-migrant politics and will be aided and abetted by nationalists of all stripes Solidarity is our only hope.

It is completely unlawful for ICE to turn away members of Congress like this. The law could not be more clear; no member of Congress may be denied access to a facility where ICE is detaining someone, and they cannot be required to schedule in advance. Surprise inspections must be surprise.

i stopped wearing red crosses more than a decade ago, because police habitually target medics. this isn’t a one-off, it’s a deliberate choice they make over and over again. it’s not “a few bad apples,” it’s widespread practice.

If you are concerned by the Trump regime’s attempt to turn LA into a police state so ICE can raid a Home Depot, please note: Every US Senator will soon vote on HR1, a tax & spending bill that would increase funding for ICE removal actions by 500% & put 10k more masked agents on US streets.

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.” They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.
