None of This is OK

October 15, 2025
By: Colleen Phelps

Not OK

ICE and the National Guard taking over U.S. cities. Masked men rappelling from Black Hawk helicopters and pulling US citizens out of their beds to zip tie them and their children in the middle of the night. Children zip tied and separated from their parents… None of this is okay and it’s okay to be bothered about it.

“What brings me out is the future of my grandchildren and my great grandchildren and bad things for the working class. People fought so hard to get us where we are, I was hoping we’d never go back, we’d just keep moving forward and make it better. But we’re going backward, and it’s getting worse.”

“I object to what’s going on. Every morning I wake up and open the newspaper like ‘What fresh hell will there be today?’ And there are so many issues that I’m absolutely horrified by that it’s hard to list them all. My partner is on Medicaid and they craftily cut it – for after the midterms. He has a large number of health issues, and it’s going to be very difficult for him to get healthcare. It’ll be really tough.”
