Donald Trump gave a bunch of murderers badges and guns and set them against the American people. He must be removed from office and our citizens protected. Abolish ICE.

This can’t be repeated enough. Not only won’t they investigate, they may never even tell us who did this.
Think about the message that sends to the next ones. Nobody is safe.

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

In October, ICE grabbed Maher Tarabishi.
He was a 24/7 caregiver for his disabled son Wael.
At the time of Maher’s detention, disability advocates warned that taking away Wael’s caregiver put his life at risk.
Wael died on Friday at age 30.
ICE caused his death.
They didn’t get to say goodbye.

“Danish citizens are organising a huge boycott that includes cancelling planned holidays in the US, cancelling subscriptions to on-demand services based in the US & more generally, recommending the use of EU services instead of those provided by American platforms.”
So, same as Canadians.

@gluesenkampperez.house.gov how you, as a mother and child of an immigrant, could vote to fund ICE is unimaginable.
do you think this vote keeps your children safe from ICE or Noem's goons? i certainly don't. you may live to regret your choices. i guess we will wait and see.

"Almost violently" is another way of saying "non-violently."
They don't give out tickets for "almost speeding."
