We are an action network opposing the anti-human policies of Donald Trump and his administration. Through strong community and action, we have the power!
TOMORROW: Protest & Vigil at Rosa Parks Circle from 3pm to 4pm. - #ICE is out of control. They killed Renée Good. They've kidnapped toddlers and kids. They killed Alex Pretti. All this in #Minneapolis, in little over two weeks.
The violence and lawlessness of ICE must end. We choose to protect each other and our #democracy We stand with Minneapolis.
TODAY we're rallying to support our neighbors in #Minneapolis by raising money for International Institute of Minnesota.

When the government defines opposition as a domestic terrorism indicator, it needs to have a way to investigate political opposition. This requires widespread surveillance. Enter #Flock Safety.

The US has joined Israel in launching strikes on Iran. This is the second time this year we have attacked another country, and its only March.

RE: @kentcountyindivisible@mastodon.social
We want to encourage supporting organizations doing important work all the time, but we're in the last few hours of a push to #StandWithMinnesota with #Indivisible groups across #Michigan today!
Can you help give or spread the word?
On Friday, January 23, Minnesota is taking action with statewide actions including calls for people to stay home, protests at Target and other ICE-supporting retailers.
We can't be there in person - but we can be there in spirit by speaking with our wallets to show we Stand with Minnesota.
Represent Michigan as the 26th state in the union by helping #MI #Indivisible Groups reach $26,000 in 26 hours.

Right now we have an opportunity to rein in #ICE at the federal level.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is currently funded only through January 30. The new funding bill that’s currently being written can put significant restrictions on ICE and ensure it doesn’t get a single penny more to enable its brutality.

Our strength, our sense of community, and our ability to participate in a #democracy all depend on our ability to gather together with other people and respond to the injustices we see in the world.
We need to tell our representatives to check the regime's lawless violence.
