Want to Stop ICE? Go After Its Corporate Collaborators.
ICE can’t function without help from the private sector. So we should force the private sector to stop helping.

This escalation is a very dangerous moment. This is Donald's way of circumventing any block of National Guard troops by the Governor. This is also in hopes of creating a tinderbox moment that would allow him further power moves. Stay peaceful, but keep fighting, Portland!

Here's some insight into what's going on in Corporate Media today. Now we have a choice: do we reward the Walt Disney Company for reinstating Jimmy Kimmel's show to keep the money coming or do we continue to boycott to send a loud and clear message to all involved, including Trump and Carr?
