An important ruling that protects Asylees, Refugees, LPR status individuals. Asylum is NOT illegal. Find an immigrants rights organization that supports and funds immigration attorneys and get involved to support their work. That’s how you can resist. … and support safe and legal immigration policy.

These words demand attention. “In a real sense this is holy ground, consecrated by blood spilled here. The cost is high, and so I had to be here to stand in the very place where this tragedy unfurled… I think we’re at a defining moment for our country…” ~ Rev Warnock Take a moment, so much more…

Harrisonburg, VA: Memorial Bike Ride for those killed, injured and disappeared by ICE. 4:30 pm Sat 1/31 from Bluestone Bike and Run to loop around Court Square. If you can’t ride, light their way. Stand and hold a candle as cyclists ride by to hold space in solemn remembrance.
Graphic image of Alex Pretti in bike helmet. Ride together stand together.  Bluestone Bike and Run, 4:30 pm 1/31/26Saturday January 31 4:30 pm, Bluestone Bike & Run is sponsoring a Memorial ride from their shop for Alex Pretti, Renee Good, Keith Porter, Herber Domínguez, Victor Diaz, Parady La, Luis Yenez-Cruz, Luis Caceres, Geraldo Campos, and all people abused by ICE and CBP. Cyclists will ride from 1570 S Main at 4:30 pm for a lap of silence around Court Square. 



The event info also says:"It will be freezing so bundle up and bring lights. In times like this when things seem hopeless and out of control we have to come together and support our communities.  
If you would like to support this ride, but aren’t a cyclist, or aren't up for riding at these temps, you are invited to join in another way: 
Line up around Court Square, or anywhere along the route on Main Street between BlueStone and Court Square, holding a candle to honor those lost to ICE violence. 

Things to remember: Never block a sidewalk, don’t engage with counter protestors if there are any, and don’t get in the path of the cyclists. 

Full event information on the Bluestone Bike & Run page. Check there for latest details. (Sorry, because we are a private group, we can’t link directly)

Reveling in Terror Tactics open.substack.com/pub/america/... A disgusting authoritarian display of manipulative PR: A crass disregard of human rights. I am American. This action was NOT done in my name…. independent journalists verify this action captured innocent men used for a photo op.

Seeing Sec. Noem in that El Salvador prison reminds me of when in 2018 DHS led us through the epicenter of family separations to, as I told @errolmorris.bsky.social in SEPARATED, terrify families considering seeking asylum in the U.S. by showing them what Trump would do to them if they tried.

For marginalized groups, the threat of a second Trump administration is "immediate" and "unsettling." There's no easy solutions to the problems the country faces, but "we can't capitulate to it," says Eddie Glaude. #Velshi www.msnbc.com/ali-velshi/w...

The first rule of authoritarian politics is that there’s only one source of authority. Congress will be expected to give up its role in governing, particularly anything that restrains Trump’s choices and desires.
