hey housing folks - sign in pro for HB 1687, to include social housing PDA in WA's housing cooperation law (giving access to several benefits and exemptions) senate housing committee hearing for this 10.30 am on wed. feb 18th this is a big one folks, please boost! app.leg.wa.gov/csi/Testifie...

The @troublemakers.bsky.social brought the message to #Target in north #Seattle: #ICEoutNow! But the sign was already here: #WatchOutForICE! #ICEout #AbolishICE

Looks like Ring cancelling the Flock partnership is helping alter the narrative. Headline after headline reads “Amazon cancels partnership with surveillance company” when a more accurate read is that 2 surveillance companies pause proposed partnership.

🎯 Tell Northgate Target to stand up to ICE!  TOMORROW at 2pm Meet at Hubbard Homestead Park, north of the Northgate Target. 🎒Bring: Signs addressing Target, your voice, and some friends! Dress for the weather.

Today in Seattle we celebrated the #TeslaTakedown 1st anniv with a party where it all started for us... the #Tesla showroom that shut down after months of weekly protests. We've built real community and we're just getting started ✊ @defundmusk.bsky.social @troublemakers.bsky.social

Gotta love those all American Christian family values types

Welp...here we go. We'll be in excellent company. (gift link)

And....here's the first press!

Great day at Amazon today....we'll be posting some more pics and a wrap-up video today or tomorrow. Great speakers, great energy, great signs. But one of the most moving things was the stories the folks who were flying told. They were mostly aiming at employees....

Federal building Friday is getting going today :) At the federal building, migrant groups have also been gathering to advocate for 6 year old Victoria, who has been forced to attend Immigration court without her family, and without legal representation. #iceout

All of these companies are doing whatever they want, they're barely regulated under the regime to begin with, and what they want is to pollute everywhere, starting with every Black community in the southeast US. ALL of them. This is why we're cussing you out and blocking you for your slop "joy."

What he said.

Today! 1pm, 2111 7th Ave. Seattle. Tell Amazon: #DumpICE

Today! Join us.

Oh HELL NO. “We will launch during a dynamic political environment where many civil society groups that we would expect to attack us would have their resources focused on other concerns." THEY'RE THE SAME CONCERNS, you fools. (gift link)

The very first #TeslaTakedown protests in Seattle were at the store in South Lake Union. After months of multiple actions every week, we shut that shit down. Come celebrate 1 year with @troublemakers.bsky.social @defundmusk.bsky.social! We'll have cake, music, games, and a Cybertruck piñata!

These people have to be stopped.

Guys, they're scared (and we're going to win): “Recently, the moderation team started banning memes and comments about ICE on the internal meme platform."

Anthropic head of AI safety quits, warning of "world in peril" & announces plan to study creative writing, as my college charges ahead in deal with Anthropic, which trained its tech on at least 25 books taken without permission from our Creative Writing faculty. www.bbc.com/news/article...

One down, two to go! Amazon just announced that it’s meeting our third demand. That’s great…but we're far from where we need to be. Amazon needs to understand who REALLY decides whether it thrives: its workers & its customers. No more dystopia. Join us tomorrow!

Join us TOMORROW to tell Amazon: #DumpICE! AWS has big contracts with ICE, CBP & Palantir On the day Alex Pretti was murdered—in the same week that Amazon laid off 16,000 people—CEO Andy Jassy attended a private gala screening of the Melania premiere. Tell Amazon to stop propping up the regime!

TOMORROW! Let's let the tech barons know: we are watching YOUR every dystopian move. #DumpICE!

Some children in Dilley were so distraught they cut themselves or talked about suicide, parents told ProPublica. They said kids lost their appetites after finding worms and mold on their food, had trouble sleeping, and were constantly sick.

This is....hideous. Not the mistake. What that number represents.

Dems in WA want to pass the strongest restrictions on new data centers in the country, and the Techbro billionaires are trying hard to stop it. We need to get loud and ask our elected officials to pass this bill - and make it even stronger while they're at it 👉 actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

“I’ve mentioned before that concentration camp regimes in their early stages often make use of large open infrastructure to convert into detention spaces. Dachau was converted from a shuttered factory into a concentration camp in 1933.”

Our heat is electric. It's often resistance; when we want to be super-efficient, it's magnetic. One thing that never changes? IT MELTS ICE. (sorry! can't help some climate-dork-y punning...)

If Tesla were a car company, you’d almost have to be concerned about this kind of data. Luckily, Tesla is an AI and Robotics company now.

Don't disappoint us! Thinking of Elon going to Mars brings us a sense of fittingness perhaps even exceeded by that of thinking of him on trial at Nuremberg.

On Friday the 13th, Amazon will learn that it's bad luck to support a fascist agenda. We have long memories.

1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken. Hundreds of kids are still detained. We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.

BAN THESE CARS.

See you at the federal building today at 11:30 am to celebrate our first anniversary of Federal Building Fridays! #defenddemocracy #iceout #mnsolidarity #dumptrump

Striking from new Quinnipiac poll: *Voters prefer path to legalization over deportations for most undocs by 59-34. Among independents it's 61-33 *Majority says Trump on immigration is making America less safe Again, there's broad rejection of the whole project, not just ICE tactics (see below)

We’re going to win.

the good news is that denmark saved over 90% of its jewish population from the holocaust

"For much of the 2010s and likely before and since, it appears the crime rate of CBP agents and offices was higher PER CAPITA than the crime rate of undocumented immigrants in the United States." www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/accountabi...

You’ll never guess but the solution to people not having money is to give them money.

Well, well, well.

Heads are going to explode 💥 Cato Institute just nuked the lie. Immigrants have cut U.S. deficits by $14.5 TRILLION since 1994, slashing the national debt by a third. All that “immigrants are bleeding us dry” noise? Absolute bullshit. 1/3

"The annual traffic fatality rate per 100k people increased by more than 33% across the 100 largest US cities but less than 5% in all other parts of the country [between 2008-12 and 2018-22]." findingspress.org/article/1559...

Reminder that "jaywalking" was literally made up by american car manufacturers to shift the blame for accidents from drivers to pedestrians. "Jay" was a slang term meaning "idiot" or "rube".
