They cannot safely exist in any space accessible to the public and moving between private places leaves folks vulnerable to kidnapping by armed masked goons. 51176166260

Rachel Lynett @chelalyn89.bsky.social · 16/01/2026I think maybe if we stopped saying “ICE” and started saying “Trump’s secret police force,” Democrats would see how absolutely absurd their response has been. It cannot be reformed. Abolish Trump’s secret police force. Abolish ICE. 131
Reposted by Rachel LynettRaff / Riff Raff Designs @riffraffmn.bsky.social · 16/01/2026Any politician whose response to their state being invaded by a federal force is "be peaceful and vote" better be ready to be voted out if elections ever happen again.
