13 arrested today at sit-in outside ICE’s National Criminal Analysis and Targeting Center in Burlington, Vermont

"I print whistles because reality still matters; whistles get neighbors to come running, make sure enough people are recording, so when the regime pretends there’s only one camera angle of Renee Good’s death, we know the truth." Read more from @seanhollister.bsky.social: buff.ly/mZoMDUH

A string of violent incidents involving U.S. immigration agents in Minneapolis has prompted Vermont officials & local organizers to prepare in case a similar enforcement surge is aimed at them. Vermont forbids police departments from collaborating with federal immigration authorities.

If only people had paid closer attention to those warning us that the means to challenging every election result they don't agree with has already been put into place in many states by the GOP.

Sadly not true. ICE holds ~500 people in the Plymouth County jail in MA, ~150 people in the Strafford County jail in NH, ~200 people in a federal prison in Berlin, NH, and a few dozen at four county jails through USMS contracts, in Maine (Portland & Wiscasset) and Vermont (Burlington & Swanton).

I have received numerous reports of a large delivery of unmarked vehicles to the ICE facility in Burlington. We need answers now.

This is just insane. It’s only a matter of time before DHS kills another innocent person here. (clip via MPR and @davidjbier.bsky.social on X)

In a moment of candor, an ICE agent in Maine gave away the plot By labeling a legal observer a “domestic terrorist,” an ICE agent unwittingly revealed what the Trump administration is really up to. archive.ph/Nn18w#select...

This is the correct way to police ICE. And it drives the far right nuts. Good.

An uprising of children in a DHS concentration camp in Dilly, Texas! They focused on the mistreatment of Liam Conejo Ramos, a 5-year-old from Minnesota, abducted with his father by ICE last week Immigration attorney Eric Lee could hear shouting [and] believed “hundreds of children” took part.

The clock is ticking. The February 17th deadline is fast approaching to protect trans health care in this critical moment for Vermonters to stand up for bodily autonomy and the rights of trans youth. There is still time to raise your voice.

Anybody here in VT have any more information? #Vermont #VT #ICEOUT

This is only about voter suppression. 1) state governments run their own elections 2) director of national intelligence with FBI on this raid 3) everything the administration has done this past year to show their real attack is against future voting www.nbcnews.com/politics/nat...

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.” That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

“LET US OUT!” women & children scream for help inside a detention camp in TEXAS, where private prisons like core civic make billions of taxpayer dollars holding them while abusing, neglecting them, refusing them health care, feeding them dirty food & water, etc. In our name🇺🇸

Naming someone is not doxxing. They aren’t undercover. They aren’t intelligence agents overseas. This is outrageous - we are supposed to be a free Republic and these people want an authoritarian police state. Lawsuits should be filed & ranking Dems in Congress should act.

“As long as I live, I don’t think I’ll get over this pure, dumb fact: Trump told his fans he had to blow up the liberal order because it was the only way to secure the very benefits the liberal order was already bringing us.” open.substack.com/pub/heatherc...

Why hasn't Trump sent the army to Vermont yet?

We are watching one of the wildest things a nation-state has ever done: A superpower is committing suicide because the GOP Congress is too cowardly to stand up to the Mad King. This is one of the wildest moments in all of geopolitics ever.

Dear Vermont Governor Scott, if your political party (REPUBLICANS) sends US Military paratroopers to Minnesota, will you still stick with them? Are you still a member of the REPUBLICAN party?

“It would take a two-word amendment to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 to subject ICE agents and other federal law enforcement officers to the same liability for constitutional violations that local and state officers currently face. If Congress actually cared about what it's seeing, it could pass that overnight.”

A resolution to restrict ICE activities in Vermont. Get it on the agenda for your next town selectboard meeting. Pass out copies at town meeting. When "other business" comes up, request that it is put on a future agenda. Get your town to discuss & pass this. www.whatdo-wedonow.com/blog-1-1/ice...

Walz: "Do you have no decency? We have someone dead in their car for no reason whatsoever. I don't want to be right about this, but I said if they do this they're gonna create a chaotic situation where someone innocent is gonna get killed. And they did it."

We're devastated to hear the news of Lia Smith's passing. Our hearts are with Lia's family, friends, and the entire trans community in Vermont in mourning her tragic loss. If you or a someone you love is struggling, please remember that help is available.
