Slogan ideas welcome too. A few I've been thinking of:
- "Impeach Trump/Abolish ICE/Abolish DHS" - simple, helps build momentum towards at least one specific demand which IMO the movement could use pretty soon.
- "If you separate my family I'll separate yours/As you ride to snatch children are yours safe at home?" - maybe too many words, but inspires fear/defection in ICE other troops, which IMO the movement needs more of. Hopefully too vague to be a criminal threat or incitement (especially version with the conditional?).
