Daleks of #seattle
As #Pride month kicks off, a far-Right, anti-LGBTQ+ group rallied in #Seattle, facing off against hundreds of counter-protesters as the police made two dozen violent arrests.
As anger grew at police protecting the far-Right, the Mayor and police trade insults and attacks on the protesters as "infiltrators."
We spoke with @1312press about what this all means.
"With the backdrop of the federal and national level attacks on queer rights and access to sexual health services for trans-people, Mayor Bruce Harrell and the Seattle Police Department appear to be in lockstep with the Trump administration’s rampant homophobic policies and disregard for civil rights."

There's now an extremely detailed blog post on @CrimethInc covering a lot of the events I reported on here in Seattle.
Seems like an awfully important read for folks facing ICE across the US.
CrimethInc.We Are Not Demonstrating, We Are FightingParticipants in a series of clashes in and around Seattle describe how they prevented ICE from kidnapping people at court appearances.

The Seattle & Tukwila ICE community defense aren't slowing down!
Yesterday ICE did not nab anyone from immigration court or at their check-in interviews.
Today is a federal holiday so things will likely remain quite, though I fully expect people to still be protesting ICE today.

Reporter with The Burner, Hannah Krieg, posted this quick video talking about the #BringTaunHome protest scheduled for Wednesday 6-8PM at the Seattle federal building at 912 2nd Ave.

The second protest tomorrow at the Seattle ICE kidnapping court house starts at 6pm.
This protest is for an asian immigrant who was deported on flimsy legal grounds to Djibouti, a country he is not from and has never lived in.
Activist are calling on WA Governor Bob Ferguson to do more to fight ICE!

#Protest
In other news the protest at the Seattle Immigration courthouse continues tomorrow with two protests at the building.
The first protest is an all day court watch of immigration trials to ensure ICE isn't successful in kidnapping more people.
Today was reportedly quite, but more people helping to share the burden of this protest can really help keep things going!
Can you take a 2-4hr shift at the court house?

I have some sad news, the non-binary pride flag which has been flying over the Seattle Federal Immigration Courthouse has fallen.
Cops were so busy protecting ICE during kidnappings that it took them a week to get around to tearing it down.
Frank's Flag Store collaborated with the feds to erase signs of the anti ICE protests from last week.
Fuck ICE, and fuck Frank's Flag Store!

From what I've heard sounds like today's immigration court watch was fairly quite. No signs of ICE abductions and the court should be done for the day.
Immigration rights activists say they'll be back all week, same time same court.

A low income comrade was injured at an anti-ICE action by police chemical weapons and so-called "non-lethal" ammunition.
They're getting behind on bills because they need to take time off work this week.

It sounds like the migrant defense was highly successful this weekend in Tukwila. Only two immigrants were believed to have been kidnapped on Saturday, wish it were zero but thankful it was not efficient for ICE.
Today ICE didn't even bother to show up for work! 
Hundreds of migrants and many comrades showed up none the less. Migrants wanted proof they attempted to attend the surprise interviews.

Overnight evidently three people were arrested near the Seattle ICE court house possibly in connection with the late night protests.
Not a ton of info on what happened, jail support etc is currently unknown.
Will update if anything develops.

The protest at Seattle's immigration court house is STILL going. Getting word that activist on the ground have been pursued by riot cops for the last few hours but so far have remained free from police custody. For some reason Seattle's police chief seems to be personally out on the front lines of the riot squad chasing about 20ish blacl bloc protesters around downtown rn.

Stopped by the courthouse today and couldn't help but notice a #pride flag(NB pride, right) was still flying above the court.
Speaking to reporters I got the scoop that activist allegedly stole the American flag on Tuesday annd burned that shit right in front of the court police and replaced 
Evidently the cops replaced the flag Tuesday evening so Wednesday the same thing happened and since then the cops just gave up.
Seems like queer antifa land to me for sure.

So if you have 2-4 hours free tomorrow and are able bodied, I think even a few more people in Tukwila just might keep migrants from going to prison. Even if immigrants are arrested, directly protesting ICE operations will raise the costs of these Gestapo assed ICE tactics.
If we make it consistent that kidnapping 2 migrants requires facing off with 200+ protesters we truly will melt ICE under the weight of their impossible quotas.

Finally home safe, and though I went to the liberal parade today it was still a weighty day.
It takes all kinds so I definitely don't want to tell the #NoKings crowd -not- to do symbolic protests but fuck, I'm racked with angst rn.
It's reported that over 70,000 people marched in the #Seattle anti-trump parade today.
Meanwhile in Tukwila only 200 people showed up to materially stop deportations. They tied up DHS, cops and ICE for the entire day.
Just 200 people.

Update from Tukwila, cops deployed teargas within 90 seconds of arriving.
Protesters have allegedly prevented ICE from easily leaving with the kidnapping victims. The cops are getting impatient actively attacked the crowd of activists.
