Trusted friends in Minneapolis tell me that this fund is supporting many people but does not have enough money. If you can give, please do: chuffed.org/project/1671...

Race as a construct is so powerful that only now are many people saying ‘they are killing us’. They have been killing us. We have all been us the whole time.

How does US immigration enforcement treat pregnant migrants? @qabila.bsky.social and @M. Téllez show how detention policies under both parties render them disposable, exposing how profit extraction and racialized control persist even under claims of humanitarian exception. doi.org/10.1093/migr...

The absolute gall of Obama & Clinton to say this without acknowledging that THEY BUILT THIS MACHINE. Thank you @williamcson.bsky.social for calling it out and for all your work. Check out a great episode on @thefirethesetimes.com

This is Minneapolis: A neighbor sold some silver jewelry she inherited from her grandparents to cover rent for a neighbor who hasn't been able to work during these 7 weeks of federal occupation and is at risk of eviction. We need an eviction moratorium NOW. And resources for food delivery.

There’s a lot being said about ICE paralleling fugitive slave patrols. As a historian of slavery, I think it’s far more complicated than most are articulating. A lot of historical context and power dynamics are being mashed up in the process.

In October, ICE grabbed Maher Tarabishi. He was a 24/7 caregiver for his disabled son Wael. At the time of Maher’s detention, disability advocates warned that taking away Wael’s caregiver put his life at risk. Wael died on Friday at age 30. ICE caused his death. They didn’t get to say goodbye.

Alex from our time working together, while he was in nursing school. Later, he moved to ICU, working as a nurse to support critically ill Veterans. He had such a great attitude. We’d chat between patients about trying to get in a mountain bike ride together. Will never happen now

Press needs to start referring to her as Reverend Nekima Levy Armstrong, I am learning, not from any media organizations unfortunately

Another question I came here with was: how effective are the whistles and honking? Does it stop abductions? And the answer is, surprisingly to my cynical self, yes, and often. I have talked to so many people who have successfully interrupted kidnappings.

"Given ICE is operating as a black box of impunity, what’s being reported is likely only scratching the surfaces of mistreatment," Zain Lakhani, a director at the Women’s Refugee Commission, told Jezebel. www.jezebel.com/ice-is-rushi...

Great thread!

HB 2464 is headed to executive session on 1/22, contact members of the House Community Safety committee and let them know that we need justice for people in private detention!

How does immigration policy intersect with reproductive oppression in the United States? Proud to share our new article exploring the experiences of pregnant people detained, excluded or expelled by US immigration enforcement from 2017-2022. @migrationjrnl.bsky.social doi.org/10.1093/migr...

I just got off the phone with my stepdaughter who manages a chain restaurant in MPLS suburbs. She has employees on leave scared to come to work, others arriving in tears, terrified, managers giving employees rides to/from work, running scenarios in her mind of how to respond if ICE raids them 1/

This country is in such a terrible place. Antisemitism is an important & interlocking part of all the -isms that are consuming us. We have to reckon with it & the ugliness of our past to be able to move towards a future with any hope. This community & all communities deserve safety.

My good friend's partner was detained by ICE last week. He was the victim of wage theft, and the immigration enforcement system was weaponized against him. He and W have a 3-month-old baby. If you have capacity pls consider donating & sharing. www.gofundme.com/f/help-m-and...

This whole thread is excellent and worth reading!

As a midwife who was a board-certified lactation consultant for 10 years, RFK Jr can F right off with this theocratic, antifeminist hogwash.

La Resistencia volunteers who observed the deportation flight informed us that 83 people boarded the plane to be transferred and/or deported. Someone using a guide/probing cane was seen being guided onboard the plane. #AbolishICE #AbolishGEOGROUP #ChingaLaMigra #ShutdownNWDC #FreeThemALL

Great thread! There is so much misunderstanding of VAERS.

Awesome resource

I've got a bad feeling about the upcoming flu season, given the fact that there are a bunch of subtypes at this party with the potential to wreak varying amounts of havoc. So I broke it all down here. open.substack.com/pub/rasmusse...

📣 A big step toward justice Thanks to the dedication of our community and partners, detained individuals at B18 can now meet with a lawyer privately and have their voices heard. Every story matters, every voice counts. 🫂 Our fight continues! #RightToCounsel #JusticeForAll #SomosCHIRLA

So, it's worth remembering *a lot* of just outright false bs about radicals spreads during times like this. Case in point: I have seen far, far more condemnations of leftists and anarchists supposedly discouraging people from the rallies yesterday than I have any radicals actually doing so...

Yeah, that is a tear gas canister being fired toward the retreating couple holding the baby

Greta Thunberg speaks to the press after being released from illegal detainment in Israel: "I could talk for a very, very long time about our mistreatment and abuses in our imprisonment. Trust me, but that is not the story.”

Breaking news: ICE stops family at gunpoint—smash car window on top of newborn baby. "I was screaming that there was a baby. But they didn’t care," cried mother. “I covered my baby with my body—I was so scared he was going to be hurt because glass was landing on him."

@govpritzker.illinois.gov owns every arrest and act of violence against protesters this morning. He is aiding and abetting Operation Midway Blitz by allowing state cops to do this. He tells us to film ICE. His cops have shoved me around for filming this morning.

🚨🚨 My dear friend and fellow academic, the Palestinian American sociologist @emanabdelhadi.bsky.social has been taken by the Cook County Sheriff near Chicago. They have not mirandized her. Please signal boost. All eyes on Broadview for Eman and the community she was defending 🚨🚨

To keep her in detention in Texas, the Trump administration pointed to Leqaa Kordia’s remittances to family in Palestine.

Did you know ICE is holding a disabled advocate and whistleblower who helped shut down one of their detention centres? Alma Bowman is a 58 year old woman from Georgia who spent 30 months in ICE custody during the first Trump regime. When released she became a fearless advocate for detainees 🧵

Disabled people are particularly vulnerable to abuse under fascism. ICE has been neglecting the medical needs of detainees. One disabled immigrant, Rodney Taylor, needs our help. He's a double amputee who's been in the country since he was two years old. He's being held in solitary:

For years, medical professionals and transgender advocates have been saying the "Society for Evidence-based Gender Medicine" was not following the principles of evidenced-based medicine. Now the "godfather" of evidence-based medicine is leveraging the same claim against them. (1/)

"These racist, misogynistic men do not have the right to tell us that we are ‘less than’... to tell us our lives are untenable when most of us feel differently... to act as though being born with a disability is a fate worse than death. It’s not." www.disabledginger.com/p/trumps-big...

Acetaminophen use during pregnancy was not associated with children’s risk of autism, ADHD, or intellectual disability in sibling control analyses. This suggests that associations observed in other models may have been attributable to confounding. jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

hi, medical toxicologist that knows a lot about Tylenol here👋 Claiming that tylenol use in pregnancy causes autism is fearmongering here's what you need to know 🧵
