Charles Bissell @carcolors.bsky.social · 28/03/2026Got into manhattan for the No Kings protest after 3:00pm, so literally the very last people at the back of a VERY long line.

Members of Congress cannot legally be turned away from ICE facilities when conducting oversight. Yet these emails say Noem herself is deciding when and how Members can conduct oversight. 9050601836

If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone. Americans of conscience must stand against this now. 17636590617338

We’ve warned people: keep filming, go live on social media so these moments are documented and shared. This wasn’t a case involving masked ICE agents—but that’s happening too. 17662563011367
Reposted by Charles BissellChris Murphy @chrismurphyct.bsky.social · 14/04/2025Bone chilling. A court ordered Kilmar Abrego Garcia to stay in the United States. The Supreme Court ruled 9-0 that he was illegally removed. Trump is pretending he won the ruling 9-0. 1/ You may not think this case means anything to you. But let me tell you why it does. 455130224288

Charles Bissell @carcolors.bsky.social · 04/04/2025See you tomorrow, riches... Donald Trump and Elon Musk think this country belongs to them. They're taking everything they can get their hands on & daring the world to stop them. On April 5th, we're taking to the streets nationwide to say: Hands Off! #HandsOff #April5 150
