Big Brother Is Watching Your Online Criticism of ICE Crackdowns

We have, after all, been warned over and over that organizations like ICE have been wanting to vastly expand their online operations, using the same vastly expanded budget that recently saw them purchase a new $7.3 million fleet of (Canadian made) armored vehicles. The online expansion of ICE, meanwhile, is not just in the name of locating more groups of undocumented immigrants to target, but also to compile sprawling digital enemies lists, creating databases of those who have expressed anti-ICE sentiment.

Advocates, pols condemn NYPD response to anti-ICE protest in Chinatown, demand charges dropped against arrested demonstrators | amNewYork

When you see SRG agents clearing the street, clearing the way for trucks, let's be clear, the words for that are facilitating ICE deportations. That is a violation of New York City sanctuary law, and it's not tolerable. It is not the job of the NYPD to facilitate the deportations of our neighbors, Lander charged. I really do want to ask the NYPD to remember who you're sworn to protect and serve, and it is the people of New York City.

Sweating Out the Fascism With Anti-ICE Aerobics

On Sunday, November 9, roughly 20 people met outside Portland's Immigrations and Customs Enforcement facility for an aerobics workout class. Decked out in neon leotards, the participants did grapevines to classic, upbeat '80s new wave tunes in front of the boarded-up ICE building, where right-wing paramilitary types were conspiring to arrest and deport people. Sunday's "Sweating out the Fascists" aerobics class was another in a series of increasingly absurdist-seeming protests at Portland's Immigrations and Customs Enforcement facility, nestled deep in the South Waterfront.

The Addition That's Common In American Beverages But Almost Nonexistent In Europe - Tasting Table

Entrepreneur Frederick Tudor started sending ice from American bodies of water all around the world in the 1800s. It was seen as a luxury to be able to afford and cool or preserve your food and beverages with ice. When Tudor still had leftover ice from his export business, he'd give it to American taverns, who popped chunks of it into drinks. People loved how refreshing those chilly drinks were, and then wanted to buy ice from Tudor - a genius marketing plan.
