🧵 1/5 Thanks, Trump. Because only you could turn a shutdown into an asbestos awareness week. 🎉 #EastWingDemolition #ShutdownShitshow #AsbestosAwareness

‘Ring the Alarm Bells’: Merkley Marathon Speech Against Trump Authoritarianism Continued for Over 22 Hours “This is an extraordinarily dangerous moment,” warned the Democratic senator from Oregon. www.commondreams.org/news/jeff-me...

We will be joining our partners in the Removal Coalition in calling upon Congress to do their constitutional responsibility & impeach & remove Trump from office! We will use every tool under the law to resist and remove Trump, restore what has been taken, & build a more just society! Join us!

Boycott and divestment isn't really an option for most of the hundreds of companies that work for ICE, which are largely privately owned and don't have consumer brands. Here are 42 ICE enablers that we *can* opt out of supporting. See why each is included at boycottcitizens.org/ice

“While most of the spending was on guns and armor, Legum reported that ICE had also purchased ‘guided missile warheads and explosive components.’ … It’s not immediately clear what part of a good-faith deportation operation would involve localized destruction and murder.” They’re building an army.

Authoritarianism in America is no novelty. From slavery and Jim Crow to Japanese internment, McCarthyism, and COINTELPRO, the state has crushed freedom before. What is new is Trump hollowing the whole system while parading its shell as democracy.

Emmy-award winning journalist Mario Guevara has been detained for over 100 days in retaliation for livestreaming law enforcement activity. His legal team has filed an order to halt deportation, seeking immediate release.

Fact: Pres. Trump's deployment of National Guard troops to D.C. is expected to boast a $201 million price tag. A reminder that this manufactured emergency is a waste of time & our tax dollars. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2025/09/17/dc-national-guard-deployment-cost/86205202007/

Per photographer Matthew Kaplan this morning, ICE has now fenced off the street in front of the Broadview processing facility.

An ICE agent shot Silverio dead. DHS lied about what happened. There needs to be a full, thorough investigation into what happened that morning. All camera footage must be released. And Noem must come to the committee and account for ICE's unlawfulness and lies.

Today September 23 at 10:20am La Resistencia volunteers who observe the deportation flights informed us about the number of people deported from and transferred from Northwest Detention Center

DACA has always been lawful. Now, it's facing its biggest threat yet, with DHS ignoring DACA protections and detaining DACA recipients. Our Immigrant Youth Abduction Tracker is exposing the truth: nearly 20 DACA recipients & dozens more immigrant youth are detained. HomeIsHere.us/tracker

An alarming share of ICE arrests rely on collaborations with local law enforcement – even in places that are "sanctuary cities" Since January, 45% of all ICE arrests were transfers from local jails:

Intentional disruption in the immigration courtroom has been a weapon of the Trump admin resulting in shocked attorneys with cases suddenly lost in thin air. “Some court judges seem to be in collusion with immigration officials to make these arrests,” 🔗 www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

Hours after we sent a letter signed by over 450 artists and 40K others defending free speech, ABC announced Jimmy Kimmel will return to air. Other companies should heed this warning: We the people are watching.

🇺🇸 Signs in DC tell the story of resistance and warning. Trump spewing lies the Constitution held up against enemies a fragile MAGA figure hate not welcome here and founders invoked. Free DC voices taped to lampposts speak louder than the walls of power.

Asked this guy how he felt about choking women today as he stared down at us all from the roof. He proudly declared he likes it.

As People Mag Points out, a treatment for autism Dr. Oz just announced Trump’s FDA is approving is sold by a supplement company owned by… Dr. Oz. people.com/what-is-leuc...

"The immigration agent’s partner said he suffered 'a left knee injury and some lacerations to his hands,' according to police body camera footage obtained by the Chicago Sun-Times. But federal officials reported he was 'seriously injured' before he fatally shot Silverio Villegas González."

In December 2023, Special Counsel Jack Smith asked SCOTUS to grant cert before judgement to hear Trump’s immunity appeal. The court rejected that request and didn’t issue its immunity decision until July 2024. Trump’s federal cases never made it to trial before the November 2024 election.

Goebbles or Miller?

Father David speaks truth. If you call yourself Christian and still reject him you are a fraud in name only and in reality nothing but brainwashed obedience to lies.

DAILY MEMO: LAPD Sends Two Helicopters and Six Officers to Detain Black Woman Chasing ICE Out of Her Neighborhood @eltragon.bsky.social

There's so much good stuff in here, thanks @lataco.bsky.social for the brilliant discussion!

NEW: Air Force jets are doing ICE flights to Africa with transponders turned off, making them nearly un-trackable. This includes the third-country removal to Ghana and another secret flight. We figured out where it landed. From me for @rollingstone.com: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Protesters yell at one agent with an American flag mask and sleeves “Nazi” as they push demonstrators off the sidewalk in front of the driveway. “Proud of it,” the agent replied.

Protesters briefly stop a vehicle and make it turn around, agents step out and fire a pepper balls while another shoved them from in front of the vehicle.

Albert Jesús Rodríguez Parra was one of more than 230 Venezuelan immigrants the Trump administration sent to a maximum-security prison in El Salvador. After his release, he says he wants the world to know what happened to him. By @melissa-sanchez.bsky.social

Last month, I wrote about Angel Minguela Palacios, who was arrested by Border Patrol while delivering strawberries. On Thursday, I was with his partner and their three kids when they welcomed him home after he spent more than a month in ICE detention www.latimes.com/california/s...

“My fear is they’re trying to make examples of people like myself as a way to scare people. But I’m here, and I’m not scared.”

“We still have to live under that — that fear of losing our identity, losing our culture, our religion,” Leonard Peltier says about his continued commitment to Indigenous rights. “The struggle still goes on for me. I’m not going to give up.”

On October 18, we rise! Not to defend broken systems, but to defend each other! Because our communities deserve more than fear, silence, and billion-dollar bailouts for the powerful. No Thrones. No Crowns. No Kings. FIND or HOST a 10/18 action at www.FiftyFifty.one #NoKings #Oct18 #50501Movement

Mario Guevara, a journalist who was arrested for covering a protest, has been detained by ICE for months. Read Mario's experiences in his own words.

Disney/ABC have a responsibility to refuse to participate in corruption. Kimmel must be reinstated. If Disney/ABC agree to this extortion then perhaps creatives + workers should consider collective action to push back. Same w/buying park + cruise tickets if they bow. People have power. Ask Target

Today the Oversight Committee sat down with Alex Acosta. What we heard only confirmed what we already knew: he cut a sweetheart deal for Epstein, silenced victims, and let a predator walk free.

Climate action groups staged actions on Thursday and Friday across Washington DC over increasing methane gas and oil emissions. Groups staged actions at FERC and EPA over its policy which contributes to worsening global climate. dcmediagroup.us/2025/09/19/c...

At the Broadview ICE "processing facility" outside Chicago. Earlier today, federal agents unleashed chemical weapons on protesters, elected officials, a local congressional candidate, and a local mayor. Defiant anti deportation activists remain. Another protest is planned for 7pm.

STEWART: “Comedy doesn’t change the world, but it’s a bellwether— we’re the banana peel in the coal mine… authoritarians are the threat to comedy, music, art, thought… progress.” Nailed it.

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

IT'S OFFICIAL: Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York State, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and New York City have formed the Northeast Public Health Collaborative. The collaborative will issue their own vaccine recommendations and coordinate public health efforts.
