Some signs from marches yesterday in this thread.
ETA: Of course, there are some assholes in the thread, too, including the very first response.

It's infuriating. This is also why I pushed my mom to get citizenship after almost 25 years in the US. She didn't want to, but I worried she could be detained or abruptly deported over small issues likes this. I've never had much faith in the modern US immigration System, but this is ridiculous.

Is this with the agreement to look at DACA and CHIP? CHIP funding is in the 3-wk CR. But a DACA vote promise is where I’m a little confused. Ryan agreed to take up the CR bill but a guarantee wouldn’t live in the bill. So has he signed on for that? I don't even know if McConnell or Schumer have agreed to that. I think that’s what Graham and Flake have been brokering but it’s unclear where they’re at in the Senate even. Quoting myself to say this article answers some questions. Senate moderates of both parties are meeting today to hammer out details on a 3-week CR that would guarantee an immigrant vote by 2/8. Then they’ll pitch it to Schumer and McConnell. Ryan has only committed to the 3-week CR and won’t agree to any immigration vote window unless the WH signs off. 🙄 www.politico.com/story/2018/01/21/government-shutdown-2018-trump-senate-354113

My dad was saying that it feels like the 80's when there were ice raids everywhere. One time he said he hid at the warehouse he was working. He climbed the highest shelve and stayed there while He watched coworkers get arrested. His boss never rated him out when he saw him uo there.

Schumer does seem to understand Trump's narcissism.

Anyone else see Marcy Wheeler and Matt Tait responding to the NY Mag piece about Glenn Greenwald? El-oh-el. Glenn used to be a great journalist. Now he's a self-righteous pain in the ass.

Update: the bipartisan group of senators met re: 3-week CR and then went back to Schumer and McConnell who are going to talk face-to-face today.
The Senate voted is currently scheduled for 1 a.m. per Senate rules. If it gets moved up that would be an indication that Dems have an agreement.

Should I condense and delete? Or start a shutdown thread? I don't want to break our unwritten rules here lol
