ICE’s pending $30 billion budget exceeds the military spending of nearly every country, including Canada, Brazil, Mexico, and Iran.

ICE + CBP funding for 2026 would total $66 billion, higher than all but 7 militaries worldwide.
After a string of ICE murders, Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries proposed reforms — and $11 billion more for ICE.

Including reconciliation bill funding, the Schumer-Jeffries plan would give ICE a $30 billion budget, higher than all but 15 militaries worldwide:

If reading these letters doesn’t fill you with a deep and urgent need to burn these concentration camps to the ground after releasing their prisoners, you would’ve been on the wrong side in WWII.
1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken.

Hundreds of kids are still detained.

We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

Note: Just like Mohsen Mahdawi, ICE snatched Leqaa at what she thought was a routine immigration check-in, after she protested Israel’s genocide of Gaza.

They then took her from New Jersey to Texas—where she’s been detained for nearly a year.

Now she’s hospitalized and her whereabouts are unknown.
NEW: Leqaa Kordia — who’s been in ICE detention for nearly a year, since ICE took her the same week as Mahmoud Khalil — has been hospitalized after having a seizure.

Her whereabouts & health are now unknown.

The Trump admin alleges she supports Hamas because…she sent money to help family in Gaza.

As news coverage ebbs but reports from the streets indicate Operation Metro Surge is still surging, I’m surprised there’s not some kind of official report/press conference every day, like we used to get during Covid. Just the best update they have on what happened today? I think I am being naive.

Super Bowl viewers Sunday speculated that 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos appeared in the halftime show. In fact, he has been in hiding with his family.

Almost half a billion people w/ Long Covid around the world w/ around half of them meeting criteria for ME. I’m sure it’s fine that only 33 doctors in the UK have learned anything about managing the life-threatening severe end of this horrific disease. It’s totally not going to get anyone killed /s
Out of over half a million healthcare providers in the UK, thirty-three have viewed the module on managing severe ME that was touted as the solution to the ME crisis. This leads to people like Savannah currently being detained and tortured in NHS hospitals

The US cutting off oil to Cuba is truly one of the most depraved acts it is possible to imagine. Hospitals will close, food production will collapse, people will starve. It is urgent for US citizens, and every sane person, to oppose this barbarism with all their might.

Dear Amal continues to need our support, friends.💔

She is quite sick right now yet still caring for 2 young children and a disabled husband.💔

Please send them even $5 if you can. Every penny keeps them fed, sheltered, and able to access lifesaving medical care.

🙏🏻Please don’t abandon my friends!🙏🏻
Amal has tried to make an account, but the mods keep banning her.

She needs to raise $500 for Naser’s next lung treatment medication.

She also needs consistent monthly support from several small dollar donating friends for food/shelter. Even $5/month helps.

It's not possible to overstate how despicable it is that the US is currently essentially laying siege to Cuba by cutting it off from all supplies required to live because it objects to a collectivist politics of not allowing people to be denied the supplies required to live.

Pretty sick situation.

The reason we do mutual aid & the reason why mutual aid is grounded in anticapitalist theory from a long time is that capitalism says your survival depends on what you can do for people. We say, no you deserve to survive by virtue of your humanity. If you can't produce, we will help you survive.

I am introducing the Quick Recognition (QR) Act, which requires ICE and CBP officers to wear uniforms featuring QR codes. When scanned, the code would generate a digital ID displaying the officer’s name, badge number, and law enforcement agency.

ICE should be unmasked both physically and digitally.
