Friendly reminder that before MLK was assassinated, he mobilized the Poor People's Campaign, a radical, multiracial movement demanding an Economic Bill of Rights. /1

“Lifeless… foam around his mouth. Nobody wants to see their kids like that.” ICE attacked a family trying to LEAVE the besieged neighborhood and hospitalized a 6 month old baby that couldn’t breathe.

I have a theory that those of us who were raised on IRC or AIM are absolutely insufferable in Slack to those who were not, because instead of writing a three-paragraph thing, we'll break that up into 15 comments.

*sigh* of relief (for 45 days).

Just ordered a copy of @keeanga.bsky.social's How We Get Free: Black Feminism and the Combahee River Collective, and you should too!

Here are IMO fair questions for all the out of touch Dems supporting reforming ICE over abolishing it — are you willing to disarm them? WTF do immigration officers need weapons in the first place?

Divest from, better yet, purge Palantir. The Evil Tech Corp is developing a tool for ICE that populates a map with potential deportation targets, brings up a dossier on each person, and provides a “confidence score” on the person’s address. @purgepalantir.bsky.social www.404media.co/elite-the-pa...

@schumer.senate.gov and @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social time to take your strongly worded letters and GTFO.

This is surreal. 4 Oglala Lakota men kidnapped by ICE in Minneapolis have finally been located. One of them was released but the other 3 are being held at Fort Snelling, a former concentration camp used to imprison Native people incl. the Dakota 38 during Dakota Wars. ictnews.org/news/north-c...

Note to self: compile a list of all the other Dems who still won't support the abolition/dismantling of ICE despite growing public support for it, and how much it would benefit their constituency.

Yes to this. To me the lesson is that we must demand a departure from necropolitics, the use of social and political power to dictate how some people may live and how some must die. Democrats and Republicans alike have engaged in necropolitics to the detriment of their constituents.

Can you imagine being a Third Way Democrat who thinks the answer is to simply "Abolish ICE abuses - Not ICE"? www.thirdway.org/memo/democra... @sarahpierce.bsky.social @lanaeerickson.bsky.social the polling data you cite in your article is now outdated. See: www.forbes.com/sites/mikest...

This marks the first time a majority of U.S. Americans support abolishing ICE. The 1/13 poll from The Economist and YouGov found 46% of people support abolishing ICE, compared to 43% who are in opposition of the movement; 12% were unsure. www.forbes.com/sites/mikest...

Absolutely. Also it's infuriating to constantly watch prestige center-left pundits wax poetic about past progressive struggles, while they simultaneously scold & tone police contemporary protests in the *exact same manner* that opponents did to those previous struggles they now allegedly champion

Note to self: compile a list of all the Dems now calling for the abolition or dismantling of ICE, check back in a few years to see who followed through or flopped.

The surveillance industry is a key enabler of vast and untold violations of human rights and civil liberties like we’ve seen in the actions of ICE. The industry seeks to profit off the data of millions while ICE creates one of the largest surveillance machines in history. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

The U.S. invasion of Venezuela & ICE's killing of Renee Good make Raoul Peck's 2021 documentary Exterminate All the Brutes all the more prescient. What we are witnessing today is not new. It is a brutal continuation of the cycle Peck incisively names: Civilization, Colonization, and Extermination.

See Paw Patrol.

For my lawyer friends — @lexisnexis.bsky.social has a $21 million data-brokerage contract with ICE. Much of LexisNexis’s revenue comes from law schools and law firms, so they are vulnerable to pressure campaigns by us lawyers.

I would never join ICE because I'm not a fucking bootlicker.

ICE just reported its fourth in-custody death of 2026. It’s only January 10.

I think we won’t really free up the space to imagine a way out of American fascism until people grasp this: most of what the “opposition party” has to offer them is their preferred actors for state violence

And Keith Porter, 43 years old – Killed by an off-duty ICE agent on December 31, 2025.

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter. I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

If you'd like to channel your rage into something constructive, consider calling on ICE to reunite José Ramon Pirela Finol with his six-year-old son and release him from detention at the Torrance County Detention Facility in New Mexico. actionnetwork.org/letters/reun...

More people are going to be murdered by ICE. It’s clear. The tactics ensure it, ICE is getting more furious and being disagreed with or resisted in any way, the verminous administration supports them and has shown they will tell any lie to support ICE murdering people. /1

Minneapolis City Council member Jason Chavez: "Many of our immigrants neighbors are picked up simply by moving their cars. Help your neighbors take out the trash, because there are many reports of neighbors being kidnapped when they're taking their trash out."

If you think the elections in November are going to fix this you are delusional. Every year, regardless of leadership, ICE’s budget went up, every year our borders became more violent. This is an escalation yes, but a chapter of a much longer novel.

The shooting came just one day after an ICE agent in Minneapolis shot and killed Renee Nicole Good.

BREAKING: FBI Portland and Portland are reporting a male and female have gunshots wounds from federal agents in Portland this afternoon: www.portland.gov/police/news/...

"Even though we know ICE has killed before — and will again... We are still shaken and heartbroken by their violence. That is the cost of staying human in inhuman times — and it’s a cost we pay in defense of our neighbors and in defense of our own humanity."

ICE doesn't keep our communities safe.

For the last few months, I kept a document where every time I saw reports of fed immigration agents shooting or pointing their gun at someone, I made a note. The list grew and grew. It now includes 4 deaths. Here is what I noticed keeping that list. www.themarshallproject.org/2026/01/07/i...

Also, I wonder if people get how strange it is that Bovino keeps showing up on all these raids. He's one of the top-most CBP officials there is. It'd be like if NYPD Commish Tisch kept putting on body armor to do small drug raids in NYC all the time. Lays bare that this is all about spectacle.

Abolish ICE, Abolish the Border, Abolish the Police Reading List

Additional footage shows the brutalization of children, staff, and parents at Minneapolis’s Roosevelt High School by ICE.

A Black man named Keith Porter was shot and killed by an ICE officer on New Year’s Eve. Marimar Martinez was shot five times by an ICE officer in Chicago who went on to brag about leaving seven holes in her body. This is not new but it is expanding.

ICE’s killing of Renee Nicole Good during an operation in Minneapolis needs to be a galvanizing moment for every American to join the activists who’ve been fighting this brutality day in and day out for years in saying: ENOUGH.

“Scum” is putting it lightly. This is the kind of depraved behavior that ICE incites and institutionalizes.

Masked ICE agents, it seems, are now killing American citizens on American streets. Any Democrat who doesn’t support abolishing ICE should be instantly primaried and run out of the party. This is non negotiable. You cannot support the continued existence of this fascist murderous secret police.

We don't have to live like this.

What are we going to do about ICE killing our neighbors? Show up at the protest. Shut down ICE prisons. Demand your politicians and local police cut ties with ICE. Abolish. ICE. Don’t let their violence silence us, nor paralyze us into inaction.
