The claims that McIver, Padilla, and Lander were committing assault should make you question every other time LEOs claim assault or resisting arrest, if you weren’t already.

You know how the hero who punched Richard Spencer on camera was never found? And how great that was?

Do it soon. I used to work at an agency that gave assistance from these funds in my county. There are already ridiculous wait times without any delays to funding.
If you're in a state with a Democratic Attorney General, tell them you want them to defend LIHEAP by challenging the illegal purge at HHS.

For example successful organizing in the (sometimes recent) past has used powermapping a lot better. A lot of campaigns throw themselves at their primary target when a lot impact could be had from targeting people/entities whose opinion, money, support etc they rely on
I think this is struggle of modern organizing. Large rallies in US used to be a representation of your organizing power. Now, with social media, it's easier to raise a crowd, but a lot harder to build a coherent movement from that to wield power.

They were first told he was sent to an ICE facility in Elizabeth, NJ. But when his 8-month-pregnant wife tried to visit him, she was told he's not there.
They've received reports he may be sent as far away as Louisiana.

Columbia's response is weak ass bullshit. They should firstly sue and should be working long-term to diversify their funding sources.
Also they shouldn't have cooperated to the extent they did with the government's demand to treat the 1st amendment as optional.

the thing about chasing what you think is public opinion is that if and when things turn you will have made a bunch of statements and taken a bunch of stances that you’ll have to disavow. probably a better strategy just to say what you actually believe and stand by it. anyway, this guy sucks.

When we protested the Sunoco CEO's retiree healthcare cuts, we did a banner drop.
Then plants in the luncheon audience stood up one at a time to yell, forcing them to interrupt the event each time to escort each protester out individually.
Ever seen a Fortune 500 CEO cry?

In addition (or if that info isn't accessible) look at prominent endorsers or donors (or if it's an entity top officials at that entity) and contact their clergy.
Extra bonus points: find out where they go to church and contact their pastor/priest.
Last night, every single swing district Republican voted to cut Medicaid so they can shovel cash to their billionaire backers.
