The tide is turning

Hi John, it's Aru.

Just yesterday, I told you what our Minneapolis hub has been up to over the last two months: turning the pressure up to get the armed thugs of ICE off of our streets. They’re fighting for the responsive, representative democracy we need to have a chance at passing decisive climate action in this decade.

The tide is already turning. We are seeing cracks grow in the pro-ICE coalition.

Can you chip in $25 to support these brave young people to keep the fight going until we win?

Greg Bovino, that Border Patrol asshole who’s been wandering Minneapolis in a Nazi coat? He’s been demoted and shipped out of Minneapolis. ICE and Noem have gotten criticism from the most unexpected people: Jon Fetterman, the NRA, the Wall Street Journal, even Greg Abbott.

These people aren’t flipping because they’ve had a sudden attack of morals. They’re flipping because they understand that defending ICE is becoming completely untenable. Now, there are rumors of a slow ICE withdrawal entirely from Minneapolis.

This isn’t the time to ease up; it’s the time to crank the heat up even more, until we break these cracks open and shatter ICE’s support.

The local organizers in Minneapolis who have been critical to this work need your support. Can you chip in $25 today to show them you have their backs?

These grassroots, volunteer led hubs rely on everyday donors like you for everything from art supplies to snacks at their meetings, and a small amount can go a really long way.

In solidarity,

Aru Shiney-Ajay
