Abolish ICE. Never vote for a Republican. Primary any Democrat who won't abolish ICE.

In case you are wondering things are going great in the Federal Bureau of Prisons

So Bari's big idea is turning TV into podcast by getting a drink sponsor and surrounding guests with cases of alcohol like the Nelk Boys

Six Minnesota prosecutors—one a career attorney with the DOJ—have resigned over the investigation into the wife Renee Good left behind, instead of keeping the focus on the ICE agent who killed her. trib.al/qxg21WX

This is appalling: Top DOJ officials are actively pushing for a criminal investigation into the widow of Renee Good, leading prosecutors to quit en masse, NYT is reporting. Who in the White House ordered DOJ to do this? That's the next thing to establish.

Unions and community orgs are calling for a Minnesota-wide shutdown in 10 days to protest the ferocious assault by federal immigration agents. They're saying on Jan 23, no work, no school, no shopping. SEIU Local 26, UNITE HERE Local 17, & others are supporting, w/ more to join. By me, Amie Stager

It is impossible to properly calculate the depth and breadth of the courage and sacrifice of those prepared to confront white supremacy and assert their right to full citizenship. We - and by that I mean ALL Americans - owe them a great debt. Rest in Peace & Power Claudette Colvin.

"I could not move, because history had me glued to the seat. . . It felt like Sojourner Truth’s hands were pushing me down on one shoulder & Harriet Tubman’s hands were pushing me down on another shoulder, & I could not move." — Claudette Colvin Claudette Colvin ¡Presente! has died at age 86. 💔

WASHINGTON (AP) — Claudette Colvin, whose refusal to move seats on a segregated bus helped spark the civil rights movement, dies at 86.

Trump flips off a Ford employee after being called a “pedophile protector.” Thin-skinned and profoundly unpresidential.

Smith testified for eight hours in a closed-door hearing in December. trib.al/fX33uMY This time, Republicans won’t be able to control what the seasoned prosecutor says to live TV cameras, reporters, and the public—and it could very well be damaging to the White House.

Don’t post Trump clips. It’s just lies and hindering our real work.

Yeah man all my friends in Minnesota are buying high viz vests and forming human chains at class dismissals because ICE is targeting and tear gassing schools. I wonder why parents would want information about that.

ICE/DHS have invested in a huge array of surveillance tech and 404 has been on top of exposing the massive web of contracts and tools:

The Environmental Protection Agency has adopted a new approach to pollution regulations that centers industry costs while sidelining estimates of lives saved or public health benefits, a shift critics say “says the quiet part out loud.”

ICE just broke a woman’s windows and yanked her out of her car at Park and 34 in Minneapolis. This is after a crowd gathered while ICE raided a home.

They don't seem to realize that the video of them abusing a legal observer is probably worse than whatever video the legal observer had already obtained of them.

Sorry, what? The federal “investigation” into ICE’s killing of an American is investigating the *victim*?

Scott Wiener doxxes citizens in his own district, and wrote AB715 to make it illegal to criticize Israel. This is just him playing the role of slippery politician, nothing more.

that about sums it all up

NEW An initially-secret report for Customs and Border Patrol in 2013 found: In many vehicle shooting cases, the “driver was attempting to flee from the agents who intentionally put themselves into the exit path of the vehicle, thereby … creating justification for the use of deadly force.” 🧵

FOX: Where’s the protest against the regime that's killing people in the street right now? Trent: They are doing those today. It’s called the ICE protests FOX: Are they talking about Iran at the ICE protests? Trent: No, I think they are talking about the regime that is shooting people in the face

“A coup is happening in the United States.” Jason Stanley, author of How Fascism Works, argues that President Donald Trump is leading an unlawful takeover of the US government. From our friends at @revealnews.org:

Maybe we could just stop putting people in solidarity confinement?

Yep, a much better “hope machine” is decarceration. The story framing is an adoption of corporate techno utopianism instead of an examination of how dystopian it is to lock people in cages

Trump and Rubio are doing such a great job running Venezuela that the U.S. is now warning Americans to leave Venezuela to escape armed militias. And they want companies to go to Venezuela? No way companies will do that. Trump’s Venezuela operation is a disaster. www.foxnews.com/world/us-war...

These numbers are not surprising to me having covered it, but it is stark seeing it laid out like this and I’m glad the Times put this together. Just this week, someone told me they wished I would stop including the appointing president in stories, and I was like, “Not a chance.” This is why.

Amid outrage over the killing of Renee Good, Democratic leaders are declining to use their leverage to fight the agency.

Jonathan Ross, who shot Renee Good in the face, is local. Derek Chauvin, who knelt on George Floyd's neck, is local.

It’s getting so the only safe place to be is in the Epstein Files. 🔄

Make this go viral. This is why these cowards are masked and hide their badges. Abolish ICE. No one is safe. No one. It could be you, your neighbor, your kid. If we don’t act massively, now, it will be taken as consent. I cannot stress this enough.

This is what happens under fascist authoritarianism. #UnderHisEye
