What's morale like at CBP & ICE right now? New survey data are damning.
*21% of CBP respondents (9% of ICE respondents) believe their agencies' political leaders maintain high standards of integrity.
*Only 23% at CBP (18% at ICE) feel confident they could report illegal acts without retribution

The proper political use of the Epstein files is not to insist that everything is a distraction from them but rather to use their salience to cast doubt on everything the government says.
“The government is withholding 90% of those files - illegally. You trust them on Venezuela? On Minneapolis?”

Lots of shoving from NYPD to create an empty area for ICE to RETREAT after their planned raid got exposed

Federal immigration enforcement officials called off a planned raid on Canal Street today shortly before it was slated to begin.
New Yorkers who heard about the raid showed up at the garage where the feds had gathered, and as federal agents tried to leave, the NYPD cleared the way for them.

Thinking about this article in the NYT from January when they tried to tell us that resistance was not going to be a thing in Trump's second term

![Screenshot that reads: "Lehigh Valley ROAR was one of more than 2,000 similar grass-roots groups formed in the wake of Mr. Trump’s first election — a moment of mass organization larger than even the Tea Party movement at its peak during President Barack Obama’s first term, said Theda Skocpol, a Harvard University professor of government and sociology who has studied both movements.
A vast majority of the groups were led by women, and many traced a similar arc to Ms. Morganelli’s, their shock at Mr. Trump’s election sparking political activism and then, often, electoral victories.
But then there was the defeat of Vice President Kamala Harris in November.
[highlighted] As Mr. Trump returns to the White House on Monday with a popular vote victory and a governing trifecta in Washington, there are few signs of the sort of mass public protest that birthed “the resistance” the last time he took office."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:acdqalnhzidwm76m4peiiqa6/bafkreihwvxnrqerwhpwp6vctpkyik7rwivdfgvfvpmmylxrkvar6ti2rna@jpeg)

Disney has backed down, but there's no evidence that Sinclair or Nexstar have learned their lesson.
If you haven't already done so, check the links in the thread below for stations in your area. Find the advertisers and let them know you're boycotting them until they remove ads from these stations.
