We Can Do Hard Things
Inside Trump’s Personal Profits: His Abuse of Power for Private Deals & Who is Paying the Price | Jessica Yellin & Amanda

I wonder if there's also anything that we can do at the local level, because I know that ICE is this beast of cruelty that it is. And It sounds to me like you're saying that ICE is partnering with our local enforcement, police enforcement in many cases to carry these out. I mean, I wonder as local people to our communities, we can call and find out, are you- Participating. Doing this with ICE?

Yeah. And if so, I would like to register my outrage that you would be using my local funds- to terrorize people in this way. I mean, I wonder if there's a localized way that we can be putting pressure in our individual communities that you better not be doing this in my name on my watch with my funds to my neighbors.

And get people into a home. Like if you can make sure that they're in a home, the reason why they're trolling the streets and following people is because they don't need a warrant if they're on the street.

Now, I'm not saying they're not doing this illegally, but they can't legally enter a home without permission if they don't have a warrant. So whatever you can do to get people, if you know ICE is coming, to get them into homes and then not open the door. You do not have to open the door if they do not present a warrant. And in so many of these cases, they do not have one.

I'm going to call my local law enforcement today and make sure that I know whether they are colluding with ICE. And I think that's important for all of us to know what's happening with our local dollars and resources. Yeah.

It's very shocking to me that we are having this conversation about the violence and dehumanization of brown immigrants in our country at the exact same week that the United States has chartered a private plane to fly to South Africa. to personally escort white South Africans and invite them to be members of the United States community.

It is so clearly about protecting whiteness, this entire conspiracy that is happening right now. the juxtaposition should alarm everyone. And it's based on complete bullshit. I mean, Donald Trump is surrounded by so many South Africans. This is the home of apartheid.
