Seventy percent of Solano County residents oppose California Forever, a tech utopia proposed by a billionaire-funded company. But the project is planning to steamroll the local community with help from Trump and construction unions. www.sfgate.com/bayarea/arti...

When we made our faith leaders Call To #Minneapolis last week we had hopes of gathering at least 100. Guess what(!) 600+ clergy from around the country showed up, were trained & grounded for action yesterday & are taking those lessons into action with our partners RN. More later from me. #iceout

definitely not sobbing as i sit here and watch this

Good morning Minnesota! Aquaphor or Vaseline on exposed skin helps if you’re going to be outside in the cold for any amount of time today ❄️ #ICEOutOfMN

Good morning to all freedom fighters, and to the millions of people who are googling “abolish ICE” for the first time

The kidnappings of Black, Latine, Indigenous, and Asian US citizens are not an accident. They are the leading edge of a wide-scale ethnic cleansing campaign with centuries-old roots that is intentionally targeting not just non-citizens but all people of color. All. People. Of. Color.

They are child traffickers, plain and simple. The heinous criminals they claim to be hunting.

The people of Minnesota are an inspiration. They’re out in the freezing cold protesting ICE brutality and protecting their communities. They're delivering groceries to their vulnerable neighbors and forming human chains around schools during pickups. We can’t leave them to do this work alone.

In solidarity with today's ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA blackout, MinnMax is donating $1 to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota for every share of this Bluesky post for the next hour.

If you want to know what people mean when they say Democrats are "controlled opposition," rather than whipping votes against ICE funding, Hakeem Jeffries struck a deal with Republicans to allow Democrats to feign outrage at ICE while still funding the spending package.

As angry as we might be at Democratic leaders, we are still not angry enough.

it is extremely easy to draw a through line from university admins calling riot police in to beat their students, ordering expulsions, detaining and brutalizing journalists, and firing faculty to the on-the-ground reality of federal repression. and we should draw this line as frequently as possible.

Department of Homeland Security spending bill just passed 220-207 with the support of the following Democrats: • Henry Cuellar • Tom Suozzi • Vicente Gonzalez • Laura Gilles • Marie Gluesenkamp Perez • Jared Golden • Don Davis

With solidarity actions in 215 cities, some labor leaders are planning to organize a nationwide strike on May 1st. Read more about the exciting new organizing dynamics created by the Minneapolis General Strike paydayreport.com/minnesota-la...

A number of people from out-of-state have been opening tabs at small businesses—coffee shops where people on patrol can grab a drink and warm up, bars where people can be in community, etc. It’s been a deeply appreciated form of solidarity and helps the businesses closing tomorrow.

may Minneapolis reveal what people can do to keep each other safe from violence, and expose the lie that police work does the same thing. the violence is the police; safety is everyday acts like this:

These are the corporate collaborators who are culpable in ICE's all-out assault on Minnesotans. Here is how to fight back and kick #ICEOUT 🧵

A major coalition is launching a general strike in Minnesota tomorrow, aimed at pushing out ICE. It includes: -Amalgamated Transit Union Local 1005 -The MN AFL-CIO -SEIU Local 26 -UNITE HERE Local 17 -CWA Local 7250 -Saint Paul and Minneapolis Federations of Educators -Faith leaders And more. 🧵

Ana, a bunch of progressive ministers are arriving in Minneapolis from across the nation. There is an action planned for Friday. Here's the call they responded to. I hope reporters connect with these folks. We sent our beloved minister from California.

attention texans: are you a lawyer, do you know lawyers willing to file pro bono habeas petitions for Minnesotans that have been sent here? please reach out via DM (and not just with links to already swamped nonprofits though)

I've never seen a population more united. If people can hold onto that unity, if people can accept that different people will have different ways of confronting fascism, if we can remind NGOs and orgs that they can join but not control the resistance, then, well, people here will write history.

Strenously agree with this

Back in the early days of Trump 2 when ICE was first ramping up in LA they were approaching ERs and urgent cares with warrants signed by judges and someone on the legal team at one of the hospitals figured out that the judge name they had signed to the doc had died years ago. You can't retrain that

One of the reasons I am so insistent that everyone remember that only 22% of the US population voted for Trump is that the Christian Nationalists want the myth of a mandate in circulation. We need to reject it. They never had a mandate, and their coalition is shrinking.

🚨"Theyr're dumping people in the woods" - Medical workers are flagging potential cases of federal agents releasing injured detainees in the most inhumane method possible. LIVE NOW⬇️

If you book a hotel for $200, you should pay $200. Today, we shut down hotel junk fees and surprise credit card holds. The price you see is the price you pay.

ICE are abducting 5 year olds, using them as bait to get to their family, and shipping them to a Texas concentration camp all in a single day. We need a Nuremberg for everyone involved. Abolish ICE isn't enough.

His name is Liam Ramos, and he is 5. He was abducted from Minneapolis and trafficked to a detention camp in Texas.

ICE kidnapped a 5-year-old and sent him alone to a facility in Texas. Hell isn't hot enough.

if two people are already restraining someone physically while spraying their face with pepper spray, that is torture, plain and simple. no debate to be had about it

state-sponsored child trafficking

Bipartisan negotiators released a DHS funding bill that does not significantly reduce ICE and CBP’s funding nor rein in the agencies’ abuses of power. Make no mistake: Any Democrat who votes for this bill is complicit in Trump’s campaign of terror. Grow a spine and vote no.

This is a campaign of ethnic cleansing. Describing it as anything short of that is obfuscating what is happening. www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2026/...

I am introducing the Melt ICE Act to end funding for immigrant detention and monitoring. We have seen the danger in infusing resources into DHS’s abuses of power. Funding for ICE is fuel for human suffering. It’s time to start melting ICE.

I wish people would talk more about how the tech billionaires are the ones who want Greenland: www.engineerlive.com/content/bill...

Trump promised to deport 100 million people. There are only 52 million foreign-born people in the US. Only 14 million of them lack documentation.

This week, the House votes on DHS funding. I will not vote to give ICE a single cent. No more blank checks for a rogue agency that operates above the law, escalates violence, and erodes our most basic freedoms.

I really think there are some people who don't take seriously that the conditions in the United States are genocidal in expanding ways at an accelerating pace

For @truthout.org I wrote an analysis of the mass deportation boom during 2025. Amid all the spectacle, the passage of the funding bill in July was an ominous milestone in the history of U.S. immigration policy and the Trump administration's aspiring fascism. truthout.org/articles/tru...

absolutely disgusting

I’m sharing this video again because people don’t really get what these data centers and ai are doing to our planet and our communities. Especially Black communities because they were strategically placed there. I need you to listen to these people. STOP USING AI. STOP SUPPORTING AI.

Here is another org that can desperately use your help. If a non-citizen get kidnapped by ICE here, regardless of status, they are flying them out of the state as soon as the can. Legal representation can be the difference between seeing your family again, or, given conditions in TX, life and death.

One month after the deadline set by Congress for the Justice Department to release all files on Jeffrey Epstein, the Trump administration has made available less than 1% of the files.https://www.democracynow.org/2026/1/20/trump_epstein

In an NPR interview, Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer says she expects further efforts to disrupt voting in her swing state and that Democrats have been discussing how to respond. She even says it’s not “paranoia” to think the government will use DHS to interfere.
