“It was outright murder... By initiating wars in other states, [Trump] is telling ICE and everyone around him you can be as violent as you want and you’ll have no repercussions. We need to focus on the working class... the billionaires are not doing anything to help us.”

“We need to stop ICE and all the fascists in government right now from entering our communities and hurting our neighbors. I don’t think [the Democrats] have been doing a lot to help... They don’t actually stand for what they say they stand for.”

“[Vance] is a shame to our country. It’s abhorrent. [Senator Chuck] Schumer and [Rep. Hakeem] Jeffries are opposed to abolishing ICE. But we have to fight back. What we’re doing now is not enough.”

“We are against the wars and the horrible things ICE is doing... This generation is not going to let anything happen that can hurt other working class people... Renee Good was a wonderful person and she’s now an example of what this country is capable of.”
