here in D.C. members of the school board are now begging for the city to quickly issue new official IDs to kids in case they get stopped at federal checkpoints
apparently there are concerns that public school IDs — which aren’t REAL ID compliant — will not be accepted by authorities
Shouldn't the school board be demanding an end to the checkpoints??
This is so fucked. Sending you and all DC residents fighting against this love and solidarity!
Good fvcking grief this is out of hand
And they think that Real IDs will be? This is a gross misunderstanding of how fascists operate. There are no “papers, please” that will satisfy them. This is vibes.
They’re demanding minors have REAL ID’s!?
Christ, leave the kids alone you assholes!
So, let me get this straight: in response to fascists "papers please"ing innocent children out in public, the school board's response isn't to demand or try to force them to stop, but to... demand the city make better papers to please the fascists?
Has everyone just given in to this nightmare?
Official ID's? Federal checkpoints?
Apparently we're living in East Berlin circa 1957!
How far is this stupidity gonna go? Oh n EPSTEIN!!!!
This is just stupid because that group thinks their 💩 doesn’t stink.
There's also reports of people being told their REAL IDs aren't good enough and they need another form of ID as well. So...
some of this also stems from the fact that students in some areas of D.C. may lack access to necessary documentation due to difficult or complex housing environments. nothing to do with citizenship at all
God, that's fucked up.
Checkpoints. Checkpoints in our country. Travesty of our Democracy.
They better not put their hands on these people's children. Maybe we will finally see Americans get mad like the French, should that occur. Please dear God!
This is a nightmare. They're victomizing CHILDREN.
Panicking parents is right where the admin wants it. This is a feature not a bug
Why are they messing with school children? Where is this going to end!
The sad state of things because we live in an authoritarian, soon totalitarian, country. Too extreme? Look around you and tell me I'm wrong. Check out D.C., and Texas.
The president is a terrorist
May I see your papers?
This is why forced verification in situations like this...is bad
Where's the NRA now that Big Brother is stopping us in the street and checking our papers? What law passed on what day that now requires me to carry identification? I was born in a different country.
"Ihre papiere."
@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social Mr Mayor, we need to step up the IDNYC program. The demand far outstrips the current ability to issue cards.
Some brave, righteous bus driver is going to refuse to let Trump’s militia board it, there will be An Incident, and maybe then some of these midwest red-hatters will start paying attention.
Because one day your kids might be on that bus...
They are kids!
Why must children carry ID?! Why would any federal officer stop kids?
Also where are the checkpoints? I haven’t run into any but I also basically haven’t left NoMA since like Sunday night
…what the fuck
Keep the kids away from Cheetos the molester!
Federal checkpoints for kids? This is not the Golden Age.
