God bless the protesters who are still showing up, still confronting ICE, showing ICE they won't be left alone. My heart is broken because of what's happening, and yet I don't have the bravery to show up and essentially risk my life.

You are here, Katrina. You are engaged. You care! The Resistance has many forms. We can’t all be out on the street but we can help in other ways. Thank you for all you are doing. 💙

Bravery is being scared and doing it anyway. I did, and you can, too. Stand with others and not alone. Stand in the back and record. Wear goggles and a mask.

Thank you for your continued inspiration. Together we are making a difference.

I'll add, bless the Chief of Police in Philadelphia, she's a boss. She's ready for the fake police to come to her town where she will lock them up for any law violation, including wearing masks. There are real heroes in our ruined landscape. Let them inspire us to stand up and resist.

Is there any ICE presence in Philadelphia now? I live nearby and haven’t heard of any big raids.

I would like to give a shout out to actual police officers. They are trained professionals (granted there are rotten apples in every profession). They are real law-enforcement officers. ICE are not law enforcement officers. They are immigration enforcement officers. They have no legal authority over US citizens, except in very few instances such as someone trying to shoot up the Neighborhood

I suspect there are a lot of professional law enforcement officers who are chagrined at being lumped in with those evil clowns

It's one thing to deface Trump's Hollywood star with spray paint.

It's another thing (and I think a better thing) to pour a strong, caustic acid on Trump's star to *destroy* it.

Sledge hammer and chisel would work also

Saw a meme on BlueSky where someone replaced the center of his plaque with a drain to help with all the bodily fluids.

Someone used a pick axe in 2018. Did a nice job, but the star was replaced.

Time to try again.

Best that we destroy the Death Star now rather than later

We must all remember that our numbers are great. These insane oligarchs will not win if we keep up the noise and the protests, and try as best we can to keep our money out of their pockets. Defund ICE!

Fellow rebels, friends, colleagues, allies, adversaries, I stand before with a heavy heart. I stand now with a difficult message. I believe we are in crisis. The distance between what is said and what is known to be true has become an abyss. Of all the things at risk, the loss of an objective reality is perhaps the most dangerous.

The death of truth is the ultimate victory of evil. When truth leaves us, when we let it slip away, when it is ripped form our hands, we become vulnerable to the appetite of whatever monster screams the loudest. This chamber’s hold on the truth was finally lost on the Minneapolis streets. What took place, what happened in Minneapolis was unprovoked murder. Yes, murder. And that truth has been exiled from this chamber. And the monster screaming the loudest, the monster we helped create, the monster who will come for us all soon enough, is the Trump Regime.

People who believe in the Constitution and rule of law are NOT rebels. We are normal, average, everyday people. The "rebels" are in the regime , the ones shitting on the Constitution and rule of law.

Beth Holloway's avatar

Yet we see and know the truth. As long as we continue to repeat it loud and clear we will prevail. That’s why we must protest in all the ways a person can.

there should be a statewide stoppage in Minnesota. Shut everything down. Do what the Italians do. If gas stations are shut down, ICE can't fill up or go pee or buy anything to eat. If restaurants shut down, ICE would have nowhere to eat. If stores are shut down, ICE would have no place to pee or buy goods. People just stay home. No one on the streets to harass. Do what the Italians do. It works. It speaks volumes. And if any businesses do stay open, you know who to boycott. Be like an Italian!

The effing hotels need to throw them out

My friend asked me not to protest because they will kill us. If I don't, who will? We cannot let these bastards win. I am 70 years old. I can't think of a better way to leave this world.

Denise Palesch's avatar

You move me to tears. Jennifer, I know what you’d have been done in 1940s France.

Randa Morrison's avatar

His star always seems to be defaced...when will they stop replacing it. I think it should be removed all together. What has he done in the 'arts' to make life any better?

Patrick Tally's avatar

Host a lame reality show for TV, and stick his name on a couple ghost written books like 'Fart of the Deal'?

Richard's avatar

I wish someone would dump a bucket full of 💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩 on his Hollywood Star!

Gayla Bjork's avatar

And then remove it. What the hell did he do to deserve one in the first place!

Richard's avatar

I agree with you 100%!

He blackmailed someone in on Epstien.

If I lived nearby I'd take my dog down there for his evening walk and constitutional. Once one dog craps on it every dog that comes after it will sniff and squat.

At my rally Sunday, they read Amanda Gorman's poem. Inspiring. It was cold but a good group showed up! 🇺🇲💔

deniway's avatar

God you are right! Actually that's no surprise! The government is egging for a fight. They want a civil war. They want to kill the good guys (us) because we don't agree with their fascism. I'll still be standing up in my city with my upside-down flag that says: We Are Not OK on it - every Friday.

A turd for a turd would be great!

Sarah3000's avatar

The fact that they're sending 2000 ICE agents tells me they are trying to escalate civil unrest. It's a powder keg about to explode. And at some point civilians are going to say "Screw this" and start shooting back. Then they'll talk about how they're the victims. Classic DARVO move.

Thank you for continuing to spread the good word. I called my nabobs state and national, and read then my letter on being a Christian and what is happening that is antichrist. I plan to email each a copy, print a copy, and snail mail it too. I included numerous Bible citations since they claim doing all this for God and country. Keep up the good smite!
