Probably a lot of people are doing this since July 22, but I am doing it currently and I absolutely recommend listening to "War Pigs," specifically, right now and maybe every day for the foreseeable future during this particular American moment

it is genuinely insane that we have just kind of acclimated to the fact that we have masked secret police now
Here's a longer video of Brad Lander's detention just now inside 26 Federal Plaza as he tried to walk a man out of immigration court, by masked federal agents.

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

People think we can't defund the police because they can't remember a time before the police. But we can all remember a time before ICE, and so we can and should imagine a world without its cruelty #abolishICE
