reining in ICE and protecting elections

So much is going on, and the news items come so quickly on top of each other, that I am going to begin the newsletter with actions you need to take RIGHT AWAY.

TAKE ACTION

For residents of the city, the ACLU warns that "the Milwaukee Fire and Police Commission is holding a meeting Thursday night, and the Milwaukee Police Department’s proposed use of facial recognition technology (FRT) is on the agenda. Despite overwhelming local public opposition regarding FRT’s racial bias, the inevitability of wrongful arrests, and the ongoing weaponization of surveillance by the federal government against immigrants and protesters–MPD still wants to use FRT on Milwaukee residents."

This notice comes too late for you to attend the meeting tonight but not too late for you to contact your Milwaukee Common Council representative. The Milwaukee Turners provides email and phone scripts you can use. The ACLU provides an online form and an editable message that will be sent to your Alderperson and the Mayor.

Indivisible asks EVERYONE to call their Senators and Representative "to insist on real guardrails that put an end to ICE and CBP’s lawless thuggery and get them out of our cities. We can’t settle for insufficient reforms like body cams -- we’ve all seen that Trump’s goons are perfectly happy to gas, tackle, and kill innocent people on film."

Call your Senators with phone numbers and script.
Call your Representative with phone number and script.
Email your members of Congress with contact information and message.

New Postcard Project: GRNS has been contacted by Swing Blue Alliance from Boston, MA.Their project is to send 60,000 postcards into WI for the Supreme Court election. The cards are nonpartisan (not mentioning Judge Chris Taylor) but express democratic values and are being sent to low turn-out Democratic voters in Congressional District 3 (seat held by Van Orden). The goal is to boost Dem turnout for the Spring Election of low turnout voters for all three elections: April 7, Primary - August 1, and General Election - 11/3

Here are the details:

HOSTS find group of friends to share an order of 12 packets of cards - 25 cards per pack.
The message is mostly preprinted with a simple handwritten sentence required.
Cards, address labels and instructions will be mailed to the host to give to the group and the postcards must be mailed on March 21, 2026.
Cost: of the Packets of 25 cards = $5.25, Stamps, $15.25, Shipping $16.95. Total per pack = $262.95 The idea is to share the cost with your group.
The host will communicate with the project coordinators from Swing Blue Alliance to sign up for the project and place an order.
If we have at least two people willing to be Hosts for this project, GRNS will cover the cost. It would be great if there were more Hosts and groups and if the cost can be covered by the groups.

If you are interested please contact Norma at [email protected] or 414-588-1241.

The National Campaign for Justice also urges us to tell Congress: "Pass systemic reforms that restrict ICE from terrorizing our cities and reallocate funding to invest in healthcare instead." Here's what the National Campaign for Justice recommends — but you can do your own thing once you fill out the form on the right-hand side of the screen and then click the button to "start writing."

"As Congress negotiates DHS funding, lawmakers must move beyond minor reforms and impose real restrictions that protect people and communities. That means

Cutting ICE funding enough to restore expired ACA subsidies and Medicaid cuts passed in 2025.
Banning ICE raids at schools, hospitals, courts, day cares, and houses of worship.
Prohibiting the arrest or detention of children and ending the use of kids as leverage.
Stopping CBP from assisting ICE far from the border.
Requiring a warrant before entering any home or private business.

Congress has the power to do this right now. What happens next depends on public pressure."

Worry about the upcoming mid-term elections is ratcheting up in part because Steve Bannon announced on his War Room podcast on February 3rd "that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents will be deployed to swarm polling places during the upcoming midterm elections" (Truthout, February 5, 2026).

That provocative boast coincided with Trump's call for "Republican officials to 'take over' voting procedures in 15 states, though he did not name them. 'The Republicans should say, ‘We want to take over,’ he said. 'We should take over the voting, the voting in at least many — 15 places. The Republicans ought to nationalize the voting'" (New York Times, gift article, February 3, 2026).

The White House tried to walk back the assertion, but Trump was doubling down, saying on February 4 "that he believed the federal government should 'get involved' in elections that are riddled with 'corruption,' reiterating his position that the federal government should usurp state laws by exerting control over local elections."

So now what? CcatSun at Daily Kos (February 5, 2026) lays out how the Trumpistas plan to steal the midterm election and then offers a nascent plan to counteract the unconstitutional moves:

The Democratic party, along with citizens’ rights groups such as the ACLU, must coalesce and prepare now to come up with a strategy and act to prevent this catastrophe.

There are 3,000 counties in the US, which each run their own elections. Each has dozens or more polling places. Assume half of these are in Democratic-leaning districts. Even with vast numbers of goons on the Federal payroll, they are not enough to terrorize all the Democratic polling places, so they will have to target particular ones that would contribute the largest amount of votes for Democrats. We can make a good assumption as to which ones this will be.
Have observers in place at all high profile polling stations.
Volunteers with white reflective vests labeled “Peacekeeper” need to be stationed outside polling areas and elections offices en masse, equipped with whistles and cameras.
Governors of blue-leaning states must be willing to protect elections offices with National Guard troops. Local police forces must be willing to protect their elections officials and elections offices. Our leaders must be willing to support citizens and local officials against Federal forces. (This is probably not achievable in swing states with Republican governors.)
We need to flood social media with the message that the administration will try to invalidate election results – just as they are doing now with their message that the election will be “stolen.” And make the message alarming. We are not Susan Collins being “concerned.”

Deep in a long article about this dangerous development, CNN gets around to noting that the US Constitution "tasks individual state legislatures with determining how congressional elections are to be held." The article goes on to state "Crucially, the Constitution provides no avenue for a president to decide how elections are run. So regardless of what Trump means by nationalizing the elections, it is not something that he has the power to order on behalf of the executive branch alone." As January 6. 2021, has demonstrated, however, Trump is willing to do ANYTHING to control elections. As with so many issues these days, it's up to us to stop any illegal effort to intimidate voters or suppress voting.

Wiser and more learned heads than mine will no doubt be addressing how we can thwart this looming disaster, but meanwhile those who can should definitely volunteer to be observers at the polls, especially in areas where people may be at risk of detention by ICE and CBP, even if they are US citizens entitled to vote. The League of Women Voters of Wisconsin has extensive information about how their program for election observers has functioned in the past. At the end of the piece, there's a link you can use to learn how you can become an Election Observer with the League.

The storied Washington Post, whose former motto was "Democracy Dies in Darkness," has, it seems, entered its own twilight as The Guardian's headline announces "Mass layoffs fuel fears of ‘death spiral’ at Washington Post" (February 5. 2026): "Nearly one-third of the entire company – which stood at 2,500 employees in late 2023, before a round of buyouts – was axed."

Clearly the shape of journalism, once dominated by newspaper and television businesses, is changing dramatically. Many star journalists, like Jennifer Rubin (formerly an opinion columnist for the Washington Post), now have individual substacks or have gathered into collectives like The Contrarian, a venture started by Rubin and Norm Eisen, or The Bulwark. The result, of course, is the same kind of fragmentation we see with video streaming services. Of necessity, all of these authors and collectives need subscribers. And the result is that it becomes ever more expensive to read all the views that're fit to print.

Finally, our own beloved Ben Wikler is publishing a book — THIS IS THE PLAN: How to End America's Meltdown and Save Democracy, to be available as an old fashioned paper book, an ebook, and an audio book narrated by Ben himself on July 21. You can pre-order it now. According to Wikler, the book shares the story of how "a state that was (fairly recently) categorized as a “democracy desert” is now a toss-up for a Democratic trifecta in the 2026 midterms. To hear Wisconsin’s story, told from the inside, is to realize that there’s a way out of this mess. The book shares that story—and then applies its formula to a national plan to win elections, remove democracy’s saboteurs from office, and make America work for all of us."

There's so much more to cover, but I can't get to everything today! So I'll just finish up by pointing out that Saturday, February 7, is an especially event-full day. There are so many events that I could not add all the area canvasses that are happening around Milwaukee. The best thing you can do to find events near you is to go to mobilize.us, and use the filters to type in the area where you live and the date. You will get a list of events happening more or less near you. Plan to participate in SOMETHING, if not on the 7th, then on a day that's convenient for you.

And a last note: a number of rallies and marches are taking place in the next week or two. Rallies and marches are energizing and demonstrate to us that we are not alone. But attending them is no longer enough to create the kind of change we will need to begin the work of repairing the world. I urge you to move outside your comfort zone and to engage in the organizing we need to do if we're going to get to the other side of the deluge.

Inside the Authoritarian Playbook: The Coordinated Attacks on Public Education, 6:30 PM - 7:30

Join us to learn what’s really happening and who’s behind it. More importantly, we’ll talk about how people can fight back by showing up at school board meetings, mobilizing communities, and building real collective power. Because when we organize, we win.

At this same time, they’ve researched how Black activists and their allies sought to challenge and resist racial covenants in their struggle for access to decent, affordable housing.
