When my family and 120,000 other Japanese American were sent to prison camps in WWII, the government only allowed propaganda photos of things like schools and baseball games to be published. A school in a prison is evidence of evil, none of these people, especially children, should be imprisoned
ICE is sending these kids to the concentration camp in Dilley, Texas, where they're preparing to have so many children that they're opening a new school there. They're actively hiring teachers now. I reported on it last month. We have to get people out of there.

Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas) was spotted earlier today, January 20, 2026, on a plane heading to Laguna Beach as the state of Texas braces for a rare ice threat and arctic cold front.

Europeans losing their shit about Trump. Everybody is starting to understand how bad this is. But we're still trying to blame random people instead of agreeing to face the real problem. Unchecked white supremacy.
Over 35% of people didn't bother to vote. They were happy to see Trump win.
Of the 64% that bothered, half voted Trump. They were happy to see him win.
So pretty much 70% of Americans were happy to see Trump win. That's the vast majority.
Uncomfortable facts are no less factual.

New— An American citizen boarding flight from Boston to Lisbon just now told me after showing boarding pass, every passenger stopped on jetway by two ICE agents demanding to take their photo. When passenger asked why, ICE threatened to detain them. If they said no photo, couldn't board/TBD detained.

And this is the TEMPERATURE, not the WINDCHILL.
They’re going to invoke the Insurrection Act to stand around in this.

Just another way to try and be helpful— if you are in another place where ICE decides to ramp up and would like to create a resource like standwithminnesota.com for your state, let me know and we can clone the site and set you up to get started.

Fighting ICE is fighting for the sort of pluralistic nation where Jews are safest.
The main fundraiser for the ICE agent who shot and killed Renee Good was created by a self-described "White Independent Journalist" with a history of antisemitic online behavior.
Fundraiser for ICE Killer Is Busted Spewing Antisemitism
“Seems like a bad sign when the people raising money for you are Nazis,” one journalist noted.

I'll add: please use your local library. Check out the website, look at the services. Some are available for use from home.
Your local library may also host various groups, where you can meet your neighbors. People make community, which fights fascism. 🫶

Unsolicited advice for anyone on Bluesky who wants to fight fascism in 2026 - don't stress about following big national accounts.
Instead, follow LOCAL groups and people who are doing actual work on the ground. Join them and do stuff right in your community. THAT'S where the real action is. ❤️💪

If your response to the murder is that she should have listened to their demands, I need you to understand that you are a ghoul and no one will ever love you.

I am trying very hard to focus on how great my family is and how much I love them.
When I was a child, we listened to a lot of folk music so I grew up hearing about the horrors the US backed/orchestrated in other countries. We’ve never had a right. We still don’t.

Relaxation tips:
Close your eyes.
Take a deep breath.
Let your brain go quiet.
Let your atoms float away on the soft evening breeze and become one with a sinister fog that creeps forever across the misty moors.
