Gillibrand joins the "NO" vote but will she support the strictest and most effective limits possible to curtail DHS' unbridled authority?

Incredibly compelling testimony by a lawyer who is witnessing a protest taking place today at the prison camp in Dilley, TX where ICE brought 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos.

“Apparently the protest was initiated over the treatment of the five-year-old … from Minneapolis …

Alex Pretti, the man killed by federal agents today in Minneapolis, appears to have been a registered nurse, an athlete, a son and a brother, with ties to Colorado and Wisconsin.

Here is a photo he used for several accounts.

preparing in NYC for the inevitable, wondering if you can share DM with what the flyer looked like, so we can give a heads up to families... not that it won't change after seeing this post 😱

Tell Chuck It’s Up to Him to Block Unconditioned ICE Funding

The appropriations bill needs Democratic votes to pass the Senate, so Dems have leverage NOW. They must refuse additional funding for ICE AND add policy riders to the bill that restrict ICE's actions. Schumer get your house in order

Day One of daily 8am 🥶@schumer.senate.gov pickets!

Will he fight ICE terror by actually using the budget leverage he has?? 👀

Eyes on Immigration Court Reports from a group of volunteers who support asylum seekers in danger of abduction by ICE in NYC’s federal immigration courts.

You can always find our reports from NYC immigration courts, including new posts every Monday, on Ghost (eyes-on-immigration-court.ghost.io) or Substack (eyesonimmigrationcourt.substack.com). We also welcome collaboration with those on the ground for immigrant justice in other cities - DM us!

Mike Johnson refuses to swear in Representative-elect Adelita Grijalva — because her vote could force the House to release the Epstein Files. The GOP is doing everything they can to keep Trump's Epstein cover-up going.

It’s time to talk to our neighbors to figure out what kind of a neighborhood we want to live in:
a neighborhood where everyone can walk freely
or
a neighborhood where we are willing to look the other way while families are torn apart and people are viciously abducted by masked, armed thugs.

but
the point of the protest was to say:
it is now time to get out in our streets to protect our neighbors, our fellow NYers, our essential workers.

these are our streets
and only we can protect them

the only way to fight this is to organize
community by community
block by block.

AND I DON’T MEAN TO PROTEST

it’s time to get out into the streets
and i don’t mean to protest
yes,
this was a protest, last night
a protest against ICE in NYC
a protest against the Canal St raid tuesday night

this is going to be a target area, with all the vendors that line canal… they have gotten fairly organized about avoiding the counterfeit goods task force, i hope they can up their game and create a strong ICE detection system

so much energy,
so much community,
so much care, love and talent goes into these art builds

we are making signs, bigger than life props, a giant eagle puppet and ‘zines

BE INSPIRED
MAKE A SIGN AND MARCH!

@juliepeppito.bsky.social is preparing,
in conjunction with @bkindivisible.bsky.social, Brooklyn Resisters, and others
by holding art builds
to create the magnificent signage that will lead the protest in NYC
(meet at: 11 AM, W 47th St & Broadway)
