Masked ICE agents without no identification are detaining productive immigrants without due process, and over 70% of those detained have no criminal convictions. Manufactured crises in Los Angeles and Washington, D.C., brought in the National Guard, and similar tactics could target blue Oakland. Billions of gallons of water were released from a California reservoir as an apparent threat. Authoritarian intimidation is expected to persist through the midterm period, prompting calls to secure a Democratic House majority to prevent prolonged unchecked authoritarianism through 2028. Support exists for California redistricting if Texas pursues similar measures. Bay Area unity and proactive local action are urged.
Masked ICE agents without IDs grab productive immigrants with no due process. More than 70% of those taken have no criminal convictions. Trump manufactured crises in L.A. and Washington, D.C., to bring in the National Guard. This will continue with blue Oakland a possible next target. Earlier, he released billions of gallons of water from a California reservoir ostensibly as a threat to the state.
Authoritarian intimidation will continue for the next 16 months until midterm House Representatives are seated. We must make certain the next House is a Democratic majority or else unchecked authoritarianism will continue through 28. We've asked our Democratic leaders to fight harder. They have with a redistricting plan as a response to Trump's and Texas's effort to tilt the midterms. I support redistricting if Texas proceeds with its similar effort.
One was Russell Hancock's essay about the potential of the Bay Area to do great things to enrich the lives of citizens if we just work together. Rather than continuing to be reactive to all the chaos and criminality coming out of the federal government, let's channel our outrage over Donald Trump's transgressions and be proactive in what we can do to improve the lives of people we can reach.
