Toad went out to his garden with some candles.

“I will read the seeds a story,” said Toad. “Then they will not be afraid.”

I just wrote a @socialists.nyc letter: Tell Schumer and Gillibrand: Keep ICE Out of New York City Streets. Write one here: actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...
Tell Your Congressmember: Keep ICE Out of New York City Streets
We need our New York Senators — Chuck Schumer and Kristen Gillibrand — to commit to voting NO on ICE funding.

Yesterday, Minneapolis gave us hope. That’s what they’re trying to kill: the will of a people who are willing to fight them.

Holy shit.

He was filming. He went over to help a lady that ICE shoved down. Agents engaged him.

His hands were on the pavement when he was shot.

He never had his hand on a weapon.

Cold blooded murder.

UPDATE: Another Chicago-area church has put up an immigration-themed Nativity scene.

A church member at Urban Village Church sent this one along, where Mary, Joseph and Jesus are gone and replaced with a sign that reads: “Due to ICE activity in our community, the Holy Family is in hiding.”

on the one hand we should want people to change their mind so we can stop what's happening now. On the other hand there need to be costs for the ghoulish behavior that got us here, as these people absolutely will do this again given half a chance

All I think about when I hear people say that it’s bad taste to dance on Hulk Hogan’s grave is that Emmett Till’s monument had to be replaced with a 500lb steel bulletproof monument because white people simply won’t stop riddling it with bullets. So now it just has tons of dents. From bullets.

My union! 💚

Together, we'll deliver a city where the people who keep it running can afford it too.

From last week's endorsement:

We have to normalize “radical” ideas. Universal housing. Universal healthcare. Universal education. Talk about them everywhere, until people see how absurd it is we don’t have them. Make injustice impossible to ignore by making justice impossible to shut up about.
