ICE is a threat to public safety.
Killing U.S. citizens. Kidnapping Americans. Ignoring the Constitution.
That’s not law enforcement — that’s weaponization and abuse of power.
And the cruelty starts at the top.

One of the things that really annoys me is that all of us who were getting beat up on our university campuses 2 years ago for protesting Israel's genocide of Gaza told y'all that this was coming. If they were willing to do it to us, everyone else was next.

Abolish ICE is not enough.
Stern words for Greg Bovino or Kristi Noem is not enough.
We need prosecutions and trials.
Anything short of this position fails to address the gravity of this moment.

Another pet peeve: Under Trump, the term "diplomat' has come to mean unqualified, ignorant hack.
It is like the way "patriot" has come to mean anti-American, pro-fascist bigot.
Orwellian double-speak is the official language of the Trump Administration.

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum.
Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum.
Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum.
ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.

If you think American citizens should be summarily executed by masked federal agents, you’re not a patriot.
If you think the lawless goons loyal to our demented pedophile criminal president are greater than the people of Minnesota, you’re not a patriot.

Three journalists were murdered by the IDF in an air strike today.
The executions of US citizens on the streets of America, and the genocide of Palestinians, are intensely and brutally interlinked.
We must dismantle the imperialist beast, at home and abroad, before it consumes us all.
