The far and away most important reasons these ICE raids and abductions are awful are that it’s cruel and inhumane. But we can’t ignore the devastating (and counterproductive) impact on the economy. Immigrants have long been crucial to our economic success. bostonglobe.com/2025/08/10/met…

What did you think "Don't Tread on Me" means? Yelling at masked federal officers to leave your friends and neighbors alone is perfectly acceptable American behavior.

in Philadelphia they don’t say “I love you”, they say “Go Birds”, which roughly translates to “if the Eagles don’t win today I am going to run headfirst into traffic on 95”, and I think that’s beautiful.

Worth the translation.

Kidnapping a 5 year old wasn’t bad enough for ICE. Now they’d taken a 2 year old - in violation of a court order. This can’t be reformed. Abolish ICE. startribune.com/agents-detain-…

Agents of the federal government are summarily executing our neighbors in the streets in defense of violently rounding up and detaining our neighbors. Everyone, everywhere should be treating this like the five-alarm fire it is. There’s no going back.

America’s unions mourn the senseless killing by federal agents of our @AFGEnational Local 3669 union brother and VA nurse Alex Jeffrey Pretti. We reiterate our call for ICE to immediately leave Minnesota before anyone else is hurt or killed. aflcio.org/press/releases…

Alex Pretti should be alive. Renee Good should be alive. Those who killed them in cold blood must be brought to justice. The agency responsible for this must be disbanded. Those who have brought us to this moment must be held accountable.
