the oligarchs know we have to go to work each day.

A lot of letters to the contractors and to the heads of ICE or CBP so they feel under siege.

Protests even if we are not near the areas; maybe we could find the ICE offices and protest outside them. Or the central offices of the contractors.

I fear the attention on it will fade due to the news cycle while it all still goes on and becomes a new normal or is not stopped until Jan. 2021.
