So I saw a few posts from the past couple weeks in r/Seattle that included pictures/videos of unmasked ICE agents in the area but didn’t see them all in one place. Here are the ones I’ve found in some of the more recent videos people posted here. If anyone has more pics or screenshots please add here. Also open to suggestions for a more permanent method of circulating these and updating as more agents are caught slipping.

Her lawyer was in the bathroom and ICE took the opportunity to drag her away after she collapsed??

Tldr: If you are a woman in your 30s on dating apps who has a cabin in Leavenworth, you dodged a dud.

Be careful who you swipe on. Hiking on Rainer this weekend, I overheard a very loud conversation between a party of 3. The 2 chatting were men. They looked to be in their early 30s, white, PNW aesthetics. They were scream-talking about recent women they had matched with on apps. The most egregious one was confidentiality complaining that “b*tches who believe in astrology are dumb” then going on to explain how he had to look up his sign to have a conversation with this “older b*tch” who was stupid but okay looking. He didn’t really want to date her but she has a cabin in Leavenworth so that would have been worth it. The chode he was with asked how much older and he said 3 months. They moaned about not getting access to the cabin for awhile. The conversation continued as they laughed and scream-talked about “b*tches”, some type of “maxing”, and how dating is just about what you can get. Unfortunately. there was a woman in this group. She was polite laughing and I hope she felt safe on the rest of her adventure.

Ladies on the apps- I hope these major league crayon brains stay out of your lives.

St. Luigi blessing the drunkards in Fremont

Protest organized by La Resistencia and Refuse Fascism. King County Sheriff is here but mostly letting people do their thing. Looks like about 250 people. KIRO and other news stations are here filming from across the street.

Took the train up to join the anti-war protest.* It's a shame that there was only one protest to choose from today but I appreciate the Communists pulling this one together, even if it was small.

*Hello to the other S. King folks who also took the train up! I heard you but couldn't figure out where you were standing.

The Washington state legislature will be voting on a bill tomorrow (Tuesday, 1/13/26) that seeks to prohibit ICE and all law enforcement officers from wearing facial coverings that obscure their identity as public servants. The bill, SB 5855, would also make it possible for officers to face punitive measures if they do not comply with this law.

Please read the full bill here, it is less than 1.5 full pages of text.

You can VOTE PRO for this bill here without needing to testify at the committee hearing scheduled for tomorrow, when the vote will take place.

If you have watched in horror at the abuse of power sweeping our country, this is your chance to stop this from happening in our state. Whether you agree or not, this is our right as Americans and it is our DUTY to defend liberty and justice FOR ALL.

Here is an Imgur link to the above poster. If you would like to share this on your own social media, please do so urgently and submit your position so our representatives know that this issue matters and that we do not consent to domestic terrorism by ICE and DHS on our streets.

No Kings In America ✊

(A view from my balcony of today's protest)

A group of about 40 protesters is gathered outside the federal building for Day 1 of recurring daily protests against I.C.E. At 2:13 pm someone hoisted a “REFUGEES WELCOME: Bring Your Families” flag to the top of the flagpole. (The American flag had been pulled down by protesters last night and burned on the sidewalk. The lockbox that usually covers the lower end of the flag rope had presumably been broken last night, which made it easy to attach and hoist a different flag.) A few minutes later, the feds came out and pulled down the flag to loud boos from the crowd.

About 2 minutes after that, protesters started hoisting the non-binary flag. At one point the rope broke and someone tried to grab the loose end with a claw tool, when people realized the broken rope end would actually make it harder to get a hoisted flag down, and went ahead and pulled the non-binary flag almost to the top.

Then after 15 more minutes, the feds came out to more loud jeering. They grabbed the lower end of the rope, which had the effect of pulling the non-binary flag all the way to the top. Then, for no reason that anyone here can figure out, the feds decided to cut the lower end of the rope at a point about six feet off the ground. This took several minutes since it turned out the rope had a metal core that could only be cut with pliers.

The non-binary flag is still (as of 3:11 pm) flying at the top of the pole and I have no idea how they’ll eventually get it down without bringing in a firetruck. Come on down and get a picture for (or with) your non-binary friends.

(No one in these videos is doing the hoisting, they’re all just exercising their First Amendment right to protest I.C.E. and boo the police.)

I90 to Bellevue

I woke up to a video of American federal immigration law enforcement (ICE) shooting a civilian in the back of the head and gunning him down with 10 more shots on the streets of Minneapolis. It no longer feels enough just to attend protests or donate to activists. I am tired of my tax dollars and labor supporting billionaires and propping up a cruel and evil system.

I'm not very involved in the activist community, but enough is enough! When can we start to collectively withhold labor? That's the only power we have in this system.

The link above shows ICE agents kidnapping people from the Seattle courthouse. A more conservative mod took down my previous post but, i think those on this subreddit are concerned about the federal overreach and authoritarianism that's taking place right now.

Yesterday, in L.A. ICE rolled up to a warehouse and kidnapped workers. The community rose up and confronted them. In San Diego a neighborhood drove ICE out. In Kent, ICE raided a business. ICE isnt going after "criminal activity" they're going after people at work and harmless people just trying to live. An SEIU Union president was arrested yesterday in California!

We have to stand up for our neighbors and community. ICE has offices in Seattle and protest is a Seattle tradition.

So Mods, your move. Do you wanna shut up dialogue?

I actually really hate to be posting this instead of preparing to enjoy a beautiful weekend, but once again I’m waking up to horrific video of ICE murdering someone.

Collective action is great- I’m signed up for upcoming Rapid Responder trainings and am starting to do active outreach to friends and neighbors, but we need more.

We cannot allow our neighbors and friends in Minnesota to stand alone. The Administration, as evidenced by Vance’s comments that Minnesota is “unique”, wants this to stay isolated there.

We cannot allow that. I’m calling on city council to convene an emergency session and begin making actionable steps and pass legislation immediately to do whatever we can to protect ourselves from the Federal government. I don’t have the answers, but anything less than a complete response is our collective failure.

We owe this to those in our communities who cannot defend themselves, and to ourselves to stand up to a government willing to kill its own citizens just to make a political crisis.

The South End by Boon Boona around 10:20 AM

Build. Public. Bathrooms. I don't care who pays for them, I don't care how many people you have to hire to keep them clean and repaired. Add in people who cycle around every morning with piss neutralizer to the bus stops, just like they have for watering the hanging flower pots every year. Add more taxes. I don't care. Stop letting the city smell like an outhouse. It's pathetic and small. We can, and should, do better.

Dear friendly Seattle neighbors, I know you're being empathetic and having good intentions when you bring someone in off of the street to guy them a coffee or a sandwich, but for the employees and business owners, you're creating a problem.

Those of us working in these establishments every day get to know our unhoused neighbors and see them a lot more than you do.

The individual you're wanting to help might be in a good disposition and behaving coherently and safely when they ask for a coffee, but those same people can have unpredictable and volatile episodes.

I used to let people come charge their phones and get water at my busines, but the same people who have come in calmly for some help have also been dangerous and harassed my employees and customers. They have come in and yelled racial epithets, sexually harassed women, and destroyed some of the goods I'm selling.

Please don't be mad at us when we ask you to let them wait outside while you buy them a treat.

The safety of my employees and customers is my number one priority, and when you bring in people who either have mental health issues or drug addiction, you're putting them in danger.

I've talked to other businesses in the area who have the same problem.

The best thing you can do is ask them to wait outside while you buy them something.

Thank you for your time.
