Scenes of protest at the #ICEOutforGood happening in Portland
Happening now: hundreds have gathered in downtown Chicago to rally against both ICE/Border Patrol violence and US intervention in Venezuela.
This is one of only multiple anti-ICE demonstrations planned in Chicago this weekend.

Ross's family and friends describe him as a hardcore conservative Christian and MAGA supporter, who sports "Don't Tread on Me" flags and Trump/Vance stickers. Social media posts reveal him arguing with his family over the white supremacist group the Proud Boys. His sister, Nicole, posted a photo on Facebook in October 2020 of herself wearing a face mask with the caption, "I denounce and condemn white supremacy," the outlet reports. Ross replied in a comment that has since been deleted, prompting Nicole to respond, "we have to respectfully disagree. You are my brother and I love you, but we will not engage in a debate on Facebook."

Around 100 people still out here doing a breakaway march under some light snow.
Fireworks leading the way.
Traffic is flowing again, large number of people have dispersed. A small crowd is lingering at the site of the shooting. Media doing interviews.
A sign for Silverio Villegas GonzΓ‘lez, shot and killed by ICE behind the wheel of his car outside Chicago in September, sits in the snow and flowers.
Oliya Scootercaster My car and my baby's toy got pepper sprayed, while car was sitting empty as I filmed this attempted detainment. What did the dinosaur do?
Also: this happened earlier. Feds apparently pepper sprayed the inside of a journalist's empty car.
March is winding back to the park now but protesters are still coming up 34th. Some neighbors have a boombox going for them and also a vuvuzela.
Chanting, "MPD! KKK! ICE, they're all the same!"
Overheard in the crowd, a mother explaining to her young child who is holding a cymbal: "Do you remember? This is the same road we marched on for George Floyd. Another man who was killed."
A mountain of flowers at the site where Jonathan Ross shot and killed Renee.
Sign reading, "she was good."
Moving faster now in the road that's clear of ice. People are watching from their homes. Spontaneous chants are breaking out (and can periodically hear someone yelling, "a woman was murdered!").
Thousands here now. Absolutely enormous crowd.
People are chanting, "ICE out! Fuck ICE!"
Organizers are taking the street but it's a slow process because there is SO much ice (the water kind). People helping each other up left and right after slipping.
In Minneapolis this afternoonβ
Hundreds are streaming across the snow and ice into Powderhorn Park for a rally and march demanding ICE leave Minnesota.
It is bitterly cold. There are hardcore Midwesterners out here making their way in with trekking poles.
'racism is moral, white men are emasculated, violence is necessary'
concise statement of core fascist values
Women with their tits out, no gun and working entirely on tips are out here every night, getting big scary men to chill the hell out AND tip.
Cops could never.
I teach bystander intervention for a living and have taught de-escalation to law enforcement.
Trust me when I say that bottle girls, gas station clerks, strippers, front desk employees at hotels and airports, baristas, etc. have better de-escalation skills than any cop I've ever seen.
interesting! here's a video i took yesterday of federal agents ramming community members with their car
In the spirit of "it's important to go join the work, AND it's important to bring the work to where you are," I'll be facilitating a virtual discussion for ARTISTS, MUSICIANS, POETS, ETC. exploring how we can meaningfully contribute to the organizing happening now.

A local (to me) Food Not Bombs here in Texas is starting a free clinic to support unhoused folks and others abandoned by the State. GOOD THINGS ARE HAPPENING TOO. And you can find the helpers to volunteer with or donate to in your area. Action > despair. Or do it while despairing; just do it.
