Corporate media has completely ignored that since January, the number of 287g agreements between ICE & local police has gone up nearly 4X. We need to repeal these.

I'm a human rights lawyer. I wrote this piece on how to protect ourselves from ICE fascists.

He was wrongfully imprisoned for 43 years. Moments after being released, ICE took him

ICE must be destroyed 🏳️‍⚧️🏴 @miawong.bsky.social · 4d

There's probably some historical precedent somewhere for ICE's strategy of arresting people's children for the sole purpose of drawing their parents out of hiding to come rescue them but I sure as fuck can't remember ever seeing anyone else do it

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

Senators Reed and Whitehouse support NDAA that targets transgender rights and allows Trump unlimited domestic troop deployment

"The NDAA vote provides insight into how far most congressional Democrats are willing to go in opposing Trump’s culture war fascism and use of troops on domestic soil..."

“Regime official spreading propaganda in public spaces on big TV screen” is a scene synonymous with a fascist dystopia because it’s in LITERALLY EVERY BOOK, MOVIE AND TV SHOW EVER MADE ABOUT THAT and it ASTONISHES me how an administration comprised entirely of failed theater kids didn’t realize this

Hadn’t realized we reached the Fascist Leader Talking In An Endless Loop At Sites Of Mass Transit stage of the dystopia.

Good to know.
