There are now bipartisan investigations in both the House and Senate into the administration targeting and killing people in the Caribbean without due process.

I believe I found the appropriate place to hold the trial of the mission commander and Secretary Hogsbreath. I don't know if there was a direct enough connection to put der TrumpenFührer on trial as well.

Exactly. Just as in 1943 the U.S., UK, China, and USSR said of fascist war criminals they would “pursue them to the uttermost ends of the earth ... in order that they be fired immediately.”
Pete Hegseth is a war criminal and should be fired immediately.

New Yorkers BLOCK ICE from leaving their parking garage ahead of a flopped mass raid attempt on Canal Street

I know a lot of footage and commentary is swirling about today but it’s important to convey that the people who gathered outside that ICE garage in lower Manhattan were *so* ten toes down focused.
This person who gets maced and just calmly flips the bird & keeps going is *quintessential.*

Confirmed: Earlier this morning a photog overheard agents inside the parking garage say “dismissed,” believed to be calling off their planned mass raid.
A source tells me they had planned for *hundreds* of agents to flood Canal St. They got flooded instead.

Abolish ICE.
Call your representatives, and ask if they agree that they must be destroyed. Let them know you’ll volunteer, donate to, and vote for their primary opponents if they refuse to help dismantle and prosecute Trump’s SS.

600 ICE agents were supposed to be deployed to Canal Street. Hundreds of New Yorkers gathered instead.
Quick summary by me:

This kind of NYPD cooperation with ICE is surely what Adams promised DC in exchange for his pardon and it’s sickening.

Federal immigration enforcement officials called off a planned raid on Canal Street today shortly before it was slated to begin.
New Yorkers who heard about the raid showed up at the garage where the feds had gathered, and as federal agents tried to leave, the NYPD cleared the way for them.

Of course, fascist nutjobs are trying to get people to spam CPS with bullshit claims (good luck!) because a cop kept intentionally blocking my shot ~10 feet away from everything and I had to firmly tell him to stop.

Earlier today, activists unfurled banners and called on Apple customers to skip buying new tech this year, noting the gear they’re ogling is made from minerals mined with child & slave labor. They also pointed out Apple’s subservience/contributions to Trump.
