If you turn away from what's happening and have ANY political power, you've made your choice.
You're supporting the killing and kidnapping of innocent people.
And people around the US -- and the world -- are bearing witness.

Walz: "To Americans who are watching this, I've got a question for you: What side do you want to be on? The side of an all powerful federal govt that can kill, injury, menace, & kidnap its citizens off the streets? Or on the side of a nurse at the VA hospital who died bearing witness to such govt?"

This is unconscionable. ICE is using cruel, inhumane tactics—now, using children as bait in order to abduct their families—and we cannot allow it to continue.

While living in CA in the first Trump term, I made myself a bumper sticker to support international families like mine. I just recreated it as a car magnet that can be adapted to feature any country's flags! Lots more custom items available here too: www.etsy.com/ca/shop/West.... Ships from the US.

Trump sent troops from the National Guard to Chicago days ago, and they have unleashed havoc on the city. Troops have thrown gas canisters at protesters, deployed tear gas on streets w/ no warning, and raided apartments in the middle of the night, zip-tying children & separating them from families.

This is a breathtaking abuse of the law and power by the President of the United States.
America is on the brink of martial law.
Do not be silent.

This evening, President Trump is ordering 400 members of the Texas National Guard for deployments to Illinois, Oregon, and other locations within the United States. No officials from the federal government called me directly to discuss or coordinate.

A lot of this country’s problems boil down to straight white men who see themselves as some sort of default “normal” but any variation on that as “an identity” that is “political”

Laughing in front of cages designed to hold migrants and refugees, many of whom came to this country fleeing extreme violence and poverty, and hoping to raise their children in a more compassionate country. And many of whom followed all the legal procedures to enter the country.
