I've spent not-insignificant amount of time at protests in the US, looking for signs of IMSI catchers and never found anything, so when I saw this, my ears perked up:

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.
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.

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.

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.

The Tukwila ICE interviews are getting tense after two migrants were detained for over an hour. One was released, but the remaining man called his family from an ICE phone saying he was being kidnapped and taken to an ICE prison.
Protesters have reportedly begun chanting for his release.
Militarized HSI and DHS cops have begun taking up positions around the ICE facility and are flying small drones to intimidate people watching this ICE operation..
The problem is that there have never been weekend interviews like this so foreign residents are afraid it will be a large ICE roundup. Also, this weekend many liberals will be focusing on symbolic #NoKings protests instead of material support.
So maybe consider cop watching an ICE office instead
