It’s day 299, and it falls on the newly renamed Farm Workers Day, a day we recognize the contributions of farm workers, most of them immigrants, to feeding our families and their continued struggle for fair treatment, protections, and civil rights. 
It is also the last day of Women’s History Month, and while I don’t believe anything should be celebrated for only a month, I do want to acknowledge the women of today’s movement, the ones leading the charge against ICE. 
From the soccer moms, to the immigration orgs, to our politicians, to our lawyers. 
Everywhere I go, I’m surrounded by powerful, resilient, amazing women leading this charge, from following and confronting ICE in the streets to the courtrooms, to our political chambers, and respective local politics. 
I’m showing just a few here. 
But honestly, I’m in constant awe and admiration of you all. 
Thank you for everything. 
And let me take a moment to speak to fellow straight men, especially the men being physically, sexually, and verbally violent, and even anti-black. 
Words are not just words, messy behaviors are not just a thing that happened, and no movement, especially one against ICE and fascism, is bigger than holding each other and ourselves accountable because some battles, especially those women have been having against men, have been going on for a lot longer than the battles against ICE and fascism. 
There’s no place for that ever, and there’s especially no place for that now. 
You want ICE to respect our families and neighbors; then so should you. 
NOW, for the ICE raids. 
Since the last Daily Memo update on Thursday, ICE has continued targeting courthouses, jails, sending folks to hospitals still, crashing their vehicles, and performing Kavanaugh stops still, which, if you’re still unfamiliar with the term, are basically Supreme Court-endorsed racial profiling stops. 
So let’s catch up. 
Friday, the day before No Kings, we confirmed seven incidents. 
ICE targeted three courthouses, taking at least one person from the Long Beach Courthouse and another from the Rancho Cucamonga Superior Court. 
They were also spotted at the Superior Court in Vistat waiting around for people. 
In Santa Barbara, agents chased a man who had just been released from the Santa Barbara County jail. 
The man injured himself jumping a fence, and as he was being taken to the Hospital for treatment, another ICE vehicle crashed, spilling engine oil and creating a scene, requiring Firefighters to come help. 
And in Huntington Beach and San Bernardino, agents questioned men in their vehicles who were later released. 
They asked the man in San Bernardino whether the vehicle belonged to him or if he had bought it from someone else. 
He refused to answer questions and was let go. 
On the Saturday morning of No Kings Day, agents were again questioning people at an apartment complex in Jurupa Valley while they were in their vehicles. 
They were also spotted at the Santa Barbara North County Jail again on Saturday and Sunday. 
During the No Kings Protest, a rumor went viral that ICE was raiding an apartment building in Echo Park. 
I looked into that during the protests, and several sources could not substantiate it. 
Yesterday, Monday, agents went back to the Coachella Valley, targeting Desert Hot Springs, where a few people were taken. 
They were also scouting Glendale yesterday and today, as well as Westminster. 
Today, they were at the San Luis Obispo County Jail waiting for release. 
They were in Big Bear as well today, putting the small mountain town on alert, and in Newbury Park, where one person was taken. 
Remember to stay safe and stay vigilant.
