Ed Sheeran didn’t need to come out in favor of Palestinian rights. He just needed to come out against fat cat censorship of a fellow artist who did support Palestinian rights. How embarrassing that he couldn’t even do that.

Here’s a thread of high school anti-ICE protests from recent weeks at high schools in Oklahoma, where every county went for Trump both times. A lot of these kids can vote, and most of them will be able to by 2028. Here’s Norman High School:

There's no daylight between the Gestapo and ICE. None. Murdering kidnapping, raping, child molestation, trafficking, beating innocent people. If you have a Rep who isn't calling to abolish immediately then they work for the Gestapo. Anyone who tells you that you're overreacting is one of them too

Abolish ICE should be more than just an activist slogan. Time to put meat on the bones. By the same token, we need Democrats who won’t run away from good policy, needed accountability measures, and crucial democracy protections simply because they’re scared of Republican lies.
