100% Open Immigration: Welcome to our nation's borderlessness /
Lively music by Citizen’s Jazz, followed by a press conference with special guests Surabhi Saraf and Faluda Islam, in which I announced the new U.S. immigration policy of 100% Open Immigration:
“That’s why today, I’m dissolving Immigrations and Customs Enforcement, also known as ICE, entirely. I’m also disbanding U.S. Customs and Border Protection, and introducing U.S. Customs and Border Elimination, a diverse organization responsible for inspiring civility, admiration and respect, and facilitating legitimate trade and unfettered travel. U.S. Customs and Border Elimination will be the hosts of our Nation’s borderlessnesss, America’s unbounded, unlined, de-demarcated extended welcome. Together, we will erode the walls that were built before, dismantle the fences, and erase the lines.”
Gorgeous posters screenprinted by Joanna Ruckman. Stickers and brochures designed by Justin Carter.

"Oh boy! Oh boy! There’s a bunch of fun, interesting, artsy extravaganzas happening all over San Francisco this July. The next couple weeks are garden parties, world class workshops, world records, opera auditions, and of course music, dancing & costumes all over the place. It’s time to get out there and mix it up with thousands of other beautiful bay area weirdos. Here are the art centered events starting this weekend and running through all of July in San Francisco."

"President Margaret McCarthy, a feminist and progressive leader who believes in climate change and healthcare as a basic human right discussed her accomplishments during her first 100 days in office including: permanently halting work on both the Keystone XL and Dakota Access pipelines, as well as expanding immigration and doubling the number of refugees the US is accepting annually."
