Arrests and aggressive tactics by ICE and the Border Patrol, many seen on viral videos, have intensified the frustration and fear among residents.

Congress needs to move to abolish ICE, defund the DHS, impeach Kristi Noem, and push for prosecution of those involved for levying war against the United States

    The US military is far more competent than any ad hoc citizen militia will be. People are intentionally using nonviolent civil resistance to limit how much ICE can do until Democrats can hold power again

      So we’re fucked because Dems have done fuck all when they get in power. Those dumb mother fuckers still think this can be fixed from within the system with no major reforms.

        We need to be actively pressuring them to act. Right now, they’re largely in favor of cutting ICE’s budget sharply. That’s something they can do with even one house of Congress if we elect a Democratic majority next year.

        A bunch have come out in favor of impeaching Noem.

        The kind of prosecutions we need require executive power and willing police and prosecutors
