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.

Disabled people can be a valuable resource to prepare for what’s coming. We’re used to fighting for survival. We excel at emergency preparedness and contingency planning. We know what it’s like to try and survive an oppressive system that sees you as “better off dead”. We were built to resist.

Rugged individualism is not the way to survive fascism. Many folks will toss the disabled and vulnerable aside in an effort to further their own circumstances, but fascism comes for everyone eventually. We need strong community supports. Networks of care. We must protect the most vulnerable.

Last year, US lawmakers argued that a social media platform owned by someone close to an autocratic leader can be used as propaganda. They were talking about TikTok. For Canada, these concerns apply equally to the app formerly known as Twitter. “That’s why it’s time to ban Twitter/X in Canada.”

As predicted, women in New Hampshire had a hard time voting yesterday because of the new proof of citizenship law: “It doesn’t have my married name on it,” she said. Town voting officials then sent her away a second time, to get her marriage certificate. www.nhpr.org/nh-news/2025...

nhpr.org

NH’s new ID requirements send some would-be voters home to grab passports, birth certificates

The law requires all new voters to show proof of their U.S. citizenship. For some, that meant making multiple trips to and from the polls before finally casting a ballot on Tuesday.
