- Reposted by Camille LaGuireThere's been lots of attention on 1 particular inexperienced & untrained govt lawyer But I want to give a shout-out to Kira Kelley, climatedefenseproject.org/profile/kira..., who focused on ICE's horrific treatment of an immigrant prisoner -- all occurring *after* the court had ordered him released

- Reposted by Camille LaGuireSuburban observers say ICE has only been more aggressive since Homan: “I think they’re getting angry that we’re winning and the country is rallying around us. We’re so organized and we act with such integrity. They don’t want to admit they feel threatened by us.” share.google/ei9giIFLsuEJ...

- Reposted by Camille LaGuireThe two children who returned to MN today say they saw one of their Valley View schoolmates at a detention center in TX. This is a child whose family was last in contact with the school on January 9. No one has known where they were until now.
- Reposted by Camille LaGuireContext: this speech is from SIR THOMAS MORE, a history written, as near as scholars can tell, in the early 1600s by 6 or 7 people including Dekker, Heywood, Chettle, Shakespeare, and Munday. It was never performed, because Jacobean England was a police state and it was banned by the censor.

- Reposted by Camille LaGuireI’m on the scene at Franklin and 1st. A convoy of about a couple dozen ICE/HSI agents broke the entryway into an apartment building at 6am. No warrant presented. Less than 24 hours ago, Tom Homan announced the end of large convoys in Minnesota… Bullshit.

- Reposted by Camille LaGuirei am trying not to joke about the Epstein stuff because it's so horrible but there's also this ridiculous element where it's like... discovering Dracula is real, he's taken over human society at the highest levels, he's involved in tons of evil and also he's a huge dipshit
- Reposted by Camille LaGuireSo there was just a very loud and sustained "Fuck ICE" chant during a pro wrestling show on live primetime television, if you wanna get a sense of the vibe shift. (One of the wrestlers, Brody King, is an outspoken prigressive and wore an "Abolish ICE" shirt at a Mexico show in June.)

- Reposted by Camille LaGuireAccording to the judge, they're detaining people—the vast majority of whom are lawfully present—and moving them to different states and facilities within a matter of hours. But when it comes to releasing them, it takes two weeks. The attorneys don't even know who is in control of that.

- Reposted by Camille LaGuire"By the end of the two-year period, 94% of participants reported they were housed." A million pilot programs show the same thing: when people are given enough money to afford housing, homelessness ends. Other supports matter, but housing comes first. Not policing. Not moralizing. Homes.

- Reposted by Camille LaGuireNormal people are out there doing extraordinary things. My mom's health aide emailed me: ICE took 2 of her neighbors; when she told them they weren't welcome, she was met w/a rifle. Now she's driving a neighbor to work hidden in the back of her car & escorting the neighbor's kids to the bus stop.

Republicans should work with us to immediately reinstate the ACA tax credits & lower the cost of prescription drugs with price negotiation.
- Reposted by Camille LaGuirethey're trying to be coy about salivating over the prospect of raping women, they'll contest that but if pushed to explain, that's exactly what they would describe. forced pregnancy of any kind, by a man or by the state, is gender-based violence
