In my latest piece, I wrote about Trump's executive orders, including his attacks on trans and undocumented people, and how we should be orienting ourselves to defy fascist violence in this moment. This piece includes commentary from Chase Strangio and Silky Shah. https://organizingmythoughts.org/a-brutal-beginning-orienting-ourselves-amid-the-shock-and-awe/
A Brutal Beginning: Orienting Ourselves Amid the Shock and Awe
We must be prepared to live and act defiantly, deriving no legitimacy from the illegitimate brutes who would govern us.Kelly Hayes (Organizing My Thoughts)

We need some shock and awe of our own and we need it right now. We must break the back of the enemy's will to fight. We need to deny them the initiative and sieze it for ourselves.
I can't think of a better example than one of those ICE raids walking into a trap and finding themselves the focus of a huge urban riot like in 2020. That goes double if the National Guard gets overpowered too like in Virginia Beach, VA 1989.
As for small unit direct action against ICE and CBP, use your imagination and remember Tortuguita.
