@inthehands what community organizations take donations and are correctly helping the situation there?
@wronglang
Here’s a couple of good lists:https://www.standwithminnesota.com

@inthehands Seattle schools are already on alert, people (including me) have been making and distributing whistle packs, they're to the point of being kits and there's a map of dropoff/pickup locations at businesses, and so on:

They're winding up to attack us, but there aren't enough of them to do this everywhere. We hear you, and we are getting ready.
@moira
Thank you. Preparing your own local community is one of the most important things you can do to help. -
Unfortunately the relative quiet of the last few days is over. ICE is all over South Minneapolis this morning. They just smashed an observer’s car window and kidnapped them right outside my corner coffee shop.
@inthehands Watching with horror from the east coast, but things could be about to get very local. ICE activity is picking up in my state. It all feels like we're living in a video game and the agents are acting out their fantasies in their parents' basement – only this time it's with our lives.

@inthehands sounds like they’re working up to Starlight Tours (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saskatoon_freezing_killings; I grew up there)
@irvingreid
Oh, those were horrible — and yes, this is exactly the kind of thing they’re working up to.One of my theories is that these are people they injured and then found out they’re US citizens or otherwise not deportable.

@klayzer
Yeah. I urge you to start forming community-based groups and connections now. Even stuff as simple as teaching your less-tech-savvy folks how to install Signal or introducing yourself to neighbors ICE might racially profile will pay huge dividends in a crisis. -

We put up a lawn banner citing Leviticus 19:34: (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Leviticus%2019%3A33-34&version=NRSVA). And as the director of our weekly community meal program, I spend a lot of time thinking about how to try keep our guests safe.
My husband and I also participate regularly in vigils on our town common. It all feels like so little, but at least we're visible.

@klayzer
That’s excellent. Getting them all into a Signal group now might be a good plan. -
@klayzer
That’s excellent. Getting them all into a Signal group now might be a good plan.@inthehands That's good advice. I'll bring it up with the lead organizers.

@inthehands @robcinos
Good reminder!@inthehands @robcinos
And ... done. -
It’s hard for me to imagine more clear-cut defiance of the injunction. These shits are trying to run the legal blockade by pretend pretending it doesn’t even exist — and Bovino is not only fully aware but physically present for it. Contempt of court is completely meaningless at this point; I dare any judge to prove me wrong.
@inthehands would be a shame if someone arrested bovino and nobody could tell where he was for a while . I'm sure that never happens in our law-based society tho
-
@inthehands @Fishercat let me know if the neighborhood needs additional emergency whistles and if there are distribution sites. Happy to drop a hundred or so
@carsten
The neighborhood is extremely well supplied: that’s part of how observers got to the scene this morning so fast. -

@ferrix @inthehands Can you legally make a citizens' arrest in the US? We can in the UK.

Google docs is not a safe way to share information. Execs at Google are in on the coup, and their ai is reading everything to give to palantir.

…and the injunction is blocked by a circuit court packed with Trump loyalists.
Given ICE’s sharp increase in attacks on observers this morning, and the viciousness of those attacks — that coming on suddenly after a few days of relative quiet — I really wonder if they heard about the decision before the public did.

Duh, but this information is public
-
@inthehands We're on it here in the UK. Fellow Brits, please share. You may not be able to directly influence events in the USA, but you may be able to inspire and encourage those who can - while sending a clear message to our own government that ICE tactics won't fly here.

My Senators will block funding.
I don't know how to pressure the ones who often vote with the Republicans.@inthehands @robcinos
And, given the post from Robert Reich ten minutes ago, I just called both again because I'm disgusted. -
Duh, but this information is public
Thanks for letting us know you are supporting the coup, endangering the resistance, and are fine with that.

Bovino is in the city again, and they always go especially off the rails when he’s here.
I hope that motherfucker gets frostbite and has to have something amputated.
At the neck
