From Echo Park Tenants Union, 10 people taken today in Echo Park/Silver Lake. Some were gardners, painters, and workers. All of them my neighbors.

Alaska is now prosecuting 11 American Samoans from Whittier in total. All are relatives, all insist they never meant to break the law. All face years of prison time, in cases currently pending. One of them, the family matriarch (pictured here), has stage 4 cancer. boltsmag.org/prosecuted-f...

In 2023, two cops knocked at the door of Tupe Smith, a humble volunteer at the school in her small Alaska town. They handcuffed her in front of her young kids and took her to jail 72 miles away, where she was ordered naked and searched. She cried; she had no idea she’d broken any law. Thread:

What about voting to uphold a settler colonial state makes you think that you’re resisting fascism?

Wrapped up the week having freed 6 people from ICE detention. We’re getting super close to our match goal. We’re a nationwide ICE bond fund, let’s get some more folks free! tinyurl.com/NCRFree

A Red Lake Ojibwe descendant was snatched by ICE in Minneapolis, and a Plains Cree woman was questioned. This is in addition to the four Oglala Lakota men who reportedly were grabbed by ICE. ictnews.org/news/i-felt-...

Today's quick update [Jan 9]: - On Day 1,000 of the war in Sudan, SAF reported airstrikes on RSF positions in Darfur and Kordofan, "as well as routes leading to southern Libya" (Sudan Tribune). #KeepEyesOnSudan

I was convicted today of two counts of assault which I didn’t do and have footage that proves my claims but the judge didn’t accept it as the truth and instead believed the fabricated testimony of two construction men dumping hazardous waste.

Prison guards are flocking to ICE jobs and frankly this makes sense. Those of us who have been anti-prison organizers for decades have been saying that fascism already existed within prisons/jails. Our best teachers for how to survive fascism are incarcerated people.

The gaucherie and nonsensical wording are disconcerting—until we remember Dems have been masks off for some time. They know goddamn well what it is they are funding.

The police are defunding us.

fyi, ICE killed Keith Porter in LA on new year's eve.

Keith Porter, by the way, was Black. Barely a blip anywhere except local communities in LA. So yes, it's important to point out the racialized ecosystem of care.

Only $300 from this goal!

When juries started refusing to indict or convict activists on bogus charges, DHS shifted very quickly to shooting activists in the face. That is not a coincidence.

I don't think we can see this as separate from their white nationalist fascist *pro-natalist* masculinist social project. These two white lesbian women had to be dominated and "put in their proper place."

ICE abducted 3 people on Aurora in north Seattle today - not seeing ANYONE talk about this archive.is/3pbID

A woman on IG has been making videos of immigrant lines at the U.S. Mexico borders…full of Americans standing in line to get affordable dental care in Mexico. It’s sublime counter programming.

I think that her being a white woman "mouthing off" to him is part of the trigger. He already likely felt "disrespected" by her wife earlier. To me, this explains some white people's "she had it coming" attitude. How DARE a white woman not submit to his authority? He had to put her in her place.

Abolition should be an uncontroversial and moderate position at this point.

Once you excuse genocide people learn what they can do to you

lol you already did- just not the way you think

my teacher friend asked, if people have more to give, to help meet the goal on this rent relief fund they have set up for families unable to live home due to their status. if we did $2k in 20 minutes we can do $24k by the end of the day, right? please amplify!

It's never about protesting "peacefully" or "complying" with cops. It's always about a monopoly on violence.

My ongoing project: pledge for Palestinian life. Each time someone clicks "weekly" on a five, it ensures reliable help for six families and a camp of fifteen more. Currently, it covers two-thirds of their baseline needs (which are increasing). Not nothing. chuffed.org/project/hope...

Apropos of absolutely nothing to do with the masked men with no visible agency insignia carrying crates of who knows what out of the shooter's house, but HBO just released an amazing documentary into DHS "shadow units" whose job was to destroy evidence of Border Patrol's crimes

ICE raided my neighborhood today. They took a person off the street who was in the middle of painting a renovated building. His ladder was left standing on the sidewalk with his paint sitting out as if he left to get something out of his car. He was just doing his job.

"Don't publicly announce things a murderous regime might try to arrest, detain, deport, or kill you for" Does not mean "Don't resist at all" Ffs, people, LEARN TO DO THINGS FOR OTHER PEOPLE WITHOUT ANNOUNCING THEM.

President Donald Trump’s administration contracted last month with The GEO Group to operate a dormant prison in Hudson as an immigrant detention center for at least six months, according to documents obtained by the American Civil Liberties Union of Colorado. By @chasewoodruff.bsky.social

Renée Good's last seconds alive with the man about to shoot her remind me of Elijah McClain saying, "You are beautiful and I love you" before he was killed. We have to end this brutality.

"the question now is whether DHS was lying" YEAH DHS WAS LYING. MYSTERY SOLVED, THEY WERE LYING. THEY LIE.

May we never give up the fight to make drug policy progressive, compassionate, evidence-based, and oriented towards justice.

Very excited to share a new publication! We discuss the importance of designing drug policy with a public health approach, laying out the evidence for our argument. I'm honored to have been a part of this paper, and to have learned from my incredible coauthors. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41199684/

people are posting a lot of things about ICE agents right now that are true for All Cops

I hope more people are thinking about how dangerous cop cities are right now and how they have to be shut down now.

She voted to confirm a Trump judge just yesterday.

Honor Renee Good by picking up her work.

any political project that does not have as its goal the destruction of the system that produced that video is not worth a moment of your time

hey so this is actively happening currently here. one of the Indigenous patients i work with was stopped by ICE on lake street this morning & was asked if he's mexican. i've also been made aware of folks who know a red laker as well as a few ogalala who've been scooped up by ICE recently as well.

Polis is an example of why the Democratic party is polling lower than the GOP.

Authority, when first detecting chaos at its heels, will entertain the vilest schemes to save its orderly facade. Alan Moore

ICE 'enforcement' is policing. Some people don't want to deal with that reality.
