We’ve seen so much cruelty from ICE over the past year. But using kids as “bait” to arrest & detain their relatives is a new level of evil. I witnessed it last week at 201 Varick Street. Per this article in the @TexasTribune, it’s happened over 100X.

Native Americans are protesting after ICE detained 4 Oglala Sioux tribal members in Minneapolis.
The original Americans are getting treated like “illegal aliens” by masked federal agents.
you see this red splotch covering Gaza? it is made of red dots, each single dot represents an airstrike under the Biden’s administration. it took two years of tremendous relentless unforgiving bombing and 4 US vetos to complete. you can’t regret your way out of this.
I am a Jew. It is a genocide. And while Jews did not kill Christian kids in medieval times, we do kill Palestinian kids in modern times. That is just a fact and therefore not a blood libel.
If our Christianity causes kids to go hungry, the sick to go without healthcare, the stranger to be unwelcome, the needy to be called "parasites," and our planet to be ravaged, all while billionaires get richer, we've misunderstood the most basic elements of Jesus' teachings.
Y’all obsessed with the idea that poor people might take more than they need, but we rarely question why some wealthy people are never satisfied with what they already have.
Oh fuck you. FUCK you. You don't get to do this now. You don't get to turn around and go "Oopsie poopsie, we made a mistake!" This was YOUR genocide, motherfuckers. YOURS. You chose it. You own it. Forever. The stench of the rotting corpses in Gaza will follow you for all time.
The Trump administration's demolition of humanitarian aid led to the closure of 1700 sites for treating HIV/AIDS and to 77,000 children losing access to treatment, a study finds. https://t.co/RsGNCP9KqM And note that the cost of treating AIDS is just 12 cents a day per person.
An ICE officer is trained for 71 days. It takes 150 days to become a certified pet stylist at Petco. One grooms dogs… the other carry’s guns. This is what’s wrong with our country.
The United States is not a fascist country yet. But the process to become one is unfolding rapidly. The primary reason for this is the capitulation of the Democratic Party to the corporate donor class. The liberal class — intent on crushing any attempts to subvert the agenda of its oligarchic masters — has ushered in this new dark age.
I genuinely think the standard workday should be 10 a.m.–3 p.m. or 9 a.m.–2 p.m. There’s no reason people should spend the majority of their lives at work. Let people get home with enough time to be with their families, partners, and friends, pursue hobbies, and actually rest. A lot of today’s burnout and unhappiness comes from the fact that work consumes almost all of our waking hours.
Glad to see @NYCMayor not backing off from saying this, even under bad-faith attacks from pro-Israel, pro-genocide ghouls. But he also concedes he doesn't have the power to arrest ICC indicted war criminal Netanyahu and calls out the US federal government for not joining the ICC.
