The federal government awarded contracts Sunday to renovate two warehouses, each designed to hold 1,500 people, into immigration detention and processing facilities in Maryland and Arizona, according to contract records. The Maryland facility is scheduled for completion by May.

No country that has concentration camps ever wants to call them concentration camps. That’s who we are now. Join us for this mass call with @andreapitzer.bsky.social. actionnetwork.org/events/fight...

I believe the word reporters are looking for is assassination.

Call them what they are. Learn to shut them down. #concentrationcamps

Parker & Pitzer will also be joined by Kim Herdman Shapiro with No ICE NH. Shapiro will be sharing details about the specific strategies that organizers in her state employed to successfully shut down plans for a concentration camp planned for the city of Merrimack, NH. More details to come!

Never in a million years did I ever fathom when I resurrected the Epstein story in 2018 that it would lead to first arrest of a British Royal in four centuries. Not since King Charles I was arrested in 1647. open.substack.com/pub/jkbjourn...

Today, on Presidents’ Day, ICE killed a teacher in a car chase in Georgia and sent a 2-month-old baby in Texas’ Detention Center to the Hospital.

A high-tech laser loaned by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to Kristi Noem’s Department of Homeland Security is reportedly responsible for the flight restriction chaos around El Paso, Texas, as more details come to light.

I don't know if it's really clear, outside of coverage of Mpls and pockets of organizing elsewhere, that hundreds of thousands of people are actively and at every level of society fighting our government as it abducts and imprisons and torments our neighbors.

Ocasio gang rise up 🙌🏽🇵🇷

That critique of the government extracting resources from PR. The power poles.

If I were a different person, maybe I’d share some of the nasty responses I got last spring when - amid the CECOT flights - @andreapitzer.bsky.social @chenoweth.bsky.social and I put on a seminar on concentration camps. Outrage over “offensive” and “overblown” comparisons. Wish they’d been right.

50501 is turning 1 today. That means we have 17 more years until we become too old for the President

@handsoffnyc.bsky.social held an at-capacity training today for nearly 1,000 New Yorkers, covering Know Your Rights, ICE Watch, and organizing & mobilizing strategies. Then, they connected everyone to local neighborhood groups so they can work together to protect their neighbors. We’re going to win.

When my dentist yells at me for grinding my teeth and asks me why I won't stop, I'm just going to open a calendar and point to January 30.

The California City ICE Detention Facility isn’t providing adequate medical care to detainees because the staff are basically waiting out the clock, one man held there said—they’re acting as if “everybody who’s here is gonna be deported.” newyorkermag.visitlink.me/rgcFA_

Downfall Bovino Edition. You're welcome.

Until Miller’s gone these are just gestural purges to sanitize and consolidate his reign of terror.

Bye, Temu Himmler. Enjoy El Centro.

Saw a grainy video of a sad Greg Bovino packing his tac gear into a Honda Odyssey, being comforted by his best friend, a field mouse in a suit who was drinking from a thimble. (The field mouse is also a Nazi piece of shit.)

Three sources tell state media (CBS News) that Greg Bovino was “relieved of his command in Minneapolis.”

"ICE OUT" on Lake Nokomis in Minneapolis, as seen from my flight leaving MSP airport

Good news! South Beach Tow is hiring.

All these Republicans slowly backtracking on ICE were the ones who went all in Trump and Stephen Miller's agenda. We won't forget. We also won't forget the Democrats who were complicit.

There are more of us than there are of them. We have friends everywhere. We are going to win. ❤️

TONIGHT: Join the mass call on documenting and recording law enforcement encounters. We’ll discuss how you can keep taking action as federal agents terrorize our communities. Using our constitutional right to document and record ICE & CBP is more important than ever: www.mobilize.us/nokings/even...

Leaving this here...

15 years ago I borrowed a bulletproof vest from a reporter so I could report from a war zone. I held onto it after I returned. Last week the reporter finally asked for it back because he is headed to Minneapolis.

Cannot see the end of it.

Rabbi Tamar Magill-Grimm is Senior Rabbi at Beth Jacob Congregation. Standing alongside her fellow Minnesota clergy, Rabbi Tamar announced that her congregation will take part in a statewide day of fasting and non-violent moral action to call for an immediate end to ICE’s operations in Minnesota.

As clergy pray, arrests begin

Trump and Stephen Miller had no idea what they were going up against when they decided to invade Minnesota.

Live your life in such a way that millions of people around the globe won’t celebrate the news of your death. ❤️

I’m doing my best to make it happen, humans.

I forget which account I first saw it from but they were like: things are complicated but if u replaced both the senate and house dem leaders with literally any normal community member who is showing up on the streets of Minneapolis to try to protect their neighbors, that would be an improvement

Two days ago it was Elissa Slotkin. Last week it was Jerome Powell. Before that, Mark Kelly. Weaponizing the justice system against your opponents is an authoritarian tactic. The only person not being investigated for the shooting of Renee Good is the federal agent who shot her.
