Yesterday’s Alex Pretti memorial ride in Portland ended by passing the Portland ICE facility and of course ICE tear-gassed the crowd, including kids on bikes.

Thursday in Salem, Oregon, feds tore a US citizen’s rotator cuff yanking her out of a car window.

The Minneapolis surge really is coming for us all.

@mathowie And then there's the guy in ICE custody who was brought to a hospital with multiple fractures of his skull - left, right, front, back - and the ICE agents told the hospital staff that the guy in custody had himself banged his head on a brick wall. The guy in question was subsequently released from the hospital and is being cared for by friends but he has no memory of what happened and is unable to work.
@Axomamma @mathowie it's amazing hoe many people in ICE custody just randomly start smashing their own heads against walls.
ICE presence at hospitals triggers friction with workers

Nurses in Minneapolis doubted federal immigration officers' claims about a Mexican immigrant's severe injuries. ICE agents said Alberto Castañeda Mondragón ran headfirst into a wall while handcuffed. But hospital staff found his injuries inconsistent with that account. The seemingly implausible explanation from ICE is just one example of recent encounters that have undermined the agency’s credibility at Minneapolis hospitals and contributed to mounting friction between medical staff and immigration officers. Workers at the Hennepin County facility say ICE officers have restrained patients in defiance of hospital rules and stayed at their sides for days. The agents have also lingered around the campus and pressed people for proof of citizenship.

@mathowie Seems like even if they can’t be held criminally liable, they should be held civically liable. #FuckIce

@mathowie

My parish rector's wife told me her children were gassed in #Portland yesterday
😠 #Shame

Folks here in #Tacoma have lots of Portland connections & are actively listening, training, & preparing resistance to #ICE actions

@PeachMcD @mathowie This post was immediately under yours on my feed. Thought I'd share it in case it is useful/relevant.

@EndemicEarthling @mathowie

Passed the info along. Thank you!
Every single person there was Someone's beloved child & deserved to be treated as such

@mathowie Everyone needs to fight back or they will just keep doing it. There's power in numbers.
@mathowie Abolish and Prosecute ICE
@mathowie Remember, ICE is just Trump's misspelling of SA.
@zakalwe @mathowie Someday, we’re going to find out what happened to all those kids ICE lost.
@su_liam @mathowie Have we looked on Epstein Island?
@zakalwe @mathowie They were cleared out. No one in the DOJ is sure where they were sent…
