While first responders and families were scrambling on 9/11, Donald Trump was on TV bragging that his building was the tallest in Manhattan. "They built the World Trade Center, it became known as the second tallest, and now it's the tallest."

Things that help calm the nervous system, quickly: - Box breathing (in for 4, hold for 4, out for 4, hold for 4, repeat) - Immerse your face in cold water (activates mammalian dive reflex) - Humming (stimulates vagus nerve) - Exercise (anything helps, outside even better) - Impeachment and removal

Also, may I say that I don’t agree with people saying ICE and CBP need “more training.” They’re doing exactly what this administration has trained them to—impose a reign of fear in blue cities. They don’t need more training. They need to be ripped up root and branch.

#NoKings in Northridge, CA. Inflatable Pikachu was handing out Halloween goodie bags.
Me wearing a shirt with a cute, green frog holding a sign that says “Abolish ICE.”Across the street, an inflatable Pikachu handing out Halloween candy, and an inflatable Reptar. Protesters with signs stand in the foreground. One sign reads “Imagine hating immigrants more than pedophiles.” Another says “we don’t kneel for kings. We stand for justice.”Protest sign depicting Trump as a pig in a suit and crown, says “No Kings, Impeach.” Under his piggy arms, skulls on his desk are labeled “freedom,” “due process,” “habeas corpus,” and “bill of rights.”

The way that I was raised, being Jewish meant believing that every human life was sacred; to save a single human life meant saving all of humanity. That no law or ritual was more important than saving a single human life. It's unfathomable that any Jew can accept what Israel is doing in Gaza.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.
