Me: do they know ICE is confirming we should fear white men
You've got to hand it to Trump.
He and his regime of white supremacists are destroying the myth that whites are superior in any way.

“Renee was not the first person killed, and she was not the last,” Becca Good said. “You know my wife’s name and you know Alex’s name, but there are many others in this city being harmed that you don’t know — their families are hurting just like mine, even if they don’t look like mine.”
Renee Good's partner addresses Minneapolis immigration crackdown one month after killing
Becca Good has seldom spoken out since Renee Good was shot and killed by an ICE agent in Minneapolis on Jan. 7.

I’m so proud of all the Olympic athletes speaking out about the bullshit that is happening here. That’s what patriotism looks like.

kind of funny that an olympian said they are here to represent "compassion, respect, and love for others" and some people automatically knew that was a statement against them

If you, your family, and your friends use GPS, thank her.
An American mathematician. known for her contributions to mathematical modeling of the shape of the Earth, and her work on the development of satellite geodesy models, which were later incorporated into the Global Positioning System (GPS).

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

The US is traumatizing thousands of kids in detention camps. But we are also traumatizing *millions* of kids who are in hiding or fear their parents being snatched.
Like how we have tens of thousands of kids who have survived school shootings, and a whole generation shaped by active shooter drills.

The New York Times sent a reporter to an ICE recruiting event and that is how I learned they are offering $60,000 of student loan debt forgiveness.
NOTHING for people actually contributing to society.
Which is hilarious cause they found that most of these people DIDNT GO TO COLLEGE.

So people don’t want their tax dollars going to help Americans but are okay with their tax dollars being used to pay to jail immigrants and be cruel to them.

It's cool to see the GOP going anti-gun. All it took was for a federal government-sanctioned force killing a white male nurse who had a gun, but didn't draw it, to decide that citizens should not have the right to bear arms at certain times...I'm sure this will end well.

Thought: needing detention centers for people requires us to use our taxes to pay for them. Pretty sure immigrants are more expensive in detention than being normal members of society
ICE is being turned down all over the country from being able to build detention centers. But the truth is they probably would detain the construction workers after the projects are completed. 🔄 🤬

It’s always "The Bible must influence our laws!" until it comes to all those verses about welcoming the immigrant, helping the poor, feeding the hungry, bringing healthcare to the sick, forgiving debts, caring for our planet, laying down our swords, and loving all our neighbors.

I think not enough white people are taking the voting rights issues seriously enough. They are killing people and then offering to stop killing if the state gives up the voter registration data. This should be setting off massive alarms for EVERYONE. (I’m looking at you, white people.)

Figured out my student loan repayments based on the incentive I had for being on call 24/7 for 9-10 months last year sucks mainly because it’s dropped significantly since then
