Just put my kid on a flight to St. Paul.

Checked she had her travel stuff:

* Water bottle
* Travel pillow
* Hidden airtag in case feds steal her phone so I can find her
* Charm bracelet I made w/my tel # so that she can throw it to someone in case she is getting grabbed by ICE

So, the 2026 basics

@ethanschoonover I hate so much that you need to do this. Support from my corner of the world(Australia), and wishing her a safe trip.

@ethanschoonover I love that your list is so thoughtful.

I hate that you had to think about it this way.

@ethanschoonover Smart planning, shit-hole country.

Trump has turned the USA into a "shithole country". We no longer can count on having rule of law or habeas corpus.

@ethanschoonover If she needs help here, please reach out, happy to help. It's such crazy times.

@ethanschoonover This is not how I imagined 2026
Take care and safe traveling for your kid!

I wish this was a joke, but from my side of the Atlantic it looks like a wise move, just in case
