The threat of ICE has tons of people on high alert, the result is claims of ICE seen without firm or specific info people can actually use — & sometimes, no ICE at all. It’s never “ICE spotted in Queens,” but “4 SUVs labeled DHS seen parked on 57th & 59th in Maspeth at 2:34pm.” Be specific!

Also: this is Matthew’s actual job. If they say there’s a fighting chance to torpedo this nomination, that’s much more reliable than whatever the vibes out here might be. This is worth your time.

I want to remind everyone that your local library is both physical AND digital. You hate streaming everything because the price is ridiculous? Library. You hate ads because they're every 3 mins or less? Library. You want to reduce your digital footprint? Library. You want sourced info? Library.

Pin this, save it, we’ll need it. “When a prison camp opens in your town…when a DREAMer is disappeared from your classroom…when the President destroys what’s left of the Constitution…They will all say they didn’t know this was coming. And I want the American people to know that they did.” AOC 🔥🎯

This is NOT NORMAL, folks. These billionaires are planning to use the Trump Administration to milk every penny they can out of the rest of us. We need to have a united front on this, regardless of party. This is workers vs. oligarchs now. #StopTheOligarchy
