Exclusive: Organizers disrupted Trump’s immigration crackdown by targeting hotels where officers were staying, documents show

When Donald Trump’s administration escalated immigration raids in Los Angeles earlier this summer, protest organizers responded with actions staged in an unusual setting: the hotels where immigration officers were staying.

Protests took place at several southern California hotels where Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents had been spotted. Some activists launched “No sleep for Ice” rallies, with chants and music blaring through the night, in hopes of pressuring the hotels to kick agents out.

    I don’t know about anonymous blogging (look into Tor, maybe?), but I encourage you to get involved with your local resistance groups even if your personal risk profile doesn’t allow you to be protesting on the streets. There’s still plenty you can do in support of them from the safety of your home. (Being a computer nerd is a superpower.) Plus, the more people who get involved, the safer we all are.
