"ABOLISH ICE"
Nothing more discomfiting than federal agents circling your grocery store parking lot to try and snatch people. Since when did federal agents kidnapping people off the street become a normal course of action. It happened in my community; it's happening in MN. Coming to your neighborhood soon.
Congrats!
Very true. But also, not everything needs to happen instantaneously and not everyone needs to do everything.
Time to organize, folx. Time to act.
A thousand times yes.
It's not just optics yo. They are murdering people. The federal government is shooting citizens on the street.
David French argued Renee Good's murder is an example of the US having two sytems of law: orderly for friends & belligerent for foes. @victorerikray.bsky.social corrects him: US law has always promised fascism for non-whites & those who stand with them.

This is dystopian… and not just because they’re dressed like a scene from the handmaids tale.
These are mostly children.
This is where Liam Ramos is being held.
They’re screaming “let us out” and protesting the brutal conditions.
These kids are braver than every ICE thug holding them hostages
We know -- an agent just pleaded to habitually raping a detained migrant in a broom closet in exchange for showing her pictures of her son. Disgusting and despicable.
He sounds like a beautiful person. My heart breaks for his and others' families of those killed, in and out of detention, and those disappeared.
So many people crushed under the boot of fascism.
Trying out Qobuz and Tidal. Liking Tidal but it keeps crashing when I open it. Qobuz doesn't have the album I listen to on repeat that I'm pretty sure isn't available in hard copy: Hiatus' Ghost Notes.
If I get Tidal to work it may win by default on account of that.
The investment firm known as Northwestern University gleefully staffed by the BOT.
A university called Northwestern should have a compass.
Making agreements with fascists never serves intellectual freedom or efforts to support a diverse and equitable campus.
This is the same administration terrorizing Chicago and Evanston, detaining hundreds of people.
The wanton dishonesty in this announcement is breathtaking in its audacity.
Northwestern University board of trustees and interim President Bienen.
SHAME on you for going behind faculty and grad workers backs, when both the Faculty Senate and the Grad Workers Union have explicitly voted against making deals with the Trump admin.
Lie down with dogs and get up with fleas.
Sometimes you see a photograph, and you are like, I just saw history. And you can picture the page of the textbook where it will live. Inshallah, we will make it thru to when these actions are universally condemned by every good citizen.

If the US President never siced a federal agency on your city to round you or yours up, I'm gonna need you to sit down with your imaginary persecution complex.
It's happened many times, but the ones always crying about seem to be the ones wearing the jackboots.
Living through it feels surreal.
Oh no 😂

I’m horrified to hear that two people were kidnapped by ICE in Evanston this morning.
There’s a protest at Home Depot shortly. We’ll be delivering water and supplies to protesters — I hope you’ll join us in standing with our community.

We are being traumatized. There is an intentional effort to overwhelm our senses with the senselessness. In Chicago, in Waco, in Palestine and in other places. There are those who believe they must hurt and dominate others to secure their place in the world. I do not believe that.
This moment is disturbing even in the mundane: I’ve started taking screenshots of historical sources I’m using in research from the national park service, the smithsonian, and the national archives, just in case they get taken down. It’s now a part of my process and takes time I have to plan for.

"Israel has emerged as a regional killer of journalists... This latest killing spree is not only a grave violation of international law, but also a terrifying warning to journalists across the region: no place is safe." — Sara Qudah, CPJ regional program director
