This is the second account - the first being in Chicago - of DHS agents mass detaining people and then *sorting them by race*.
More than 400 people, including hundreds of citizens, were “sorted” at gun point into racial and ethnic groups by 200 ICE agents who fired flash-bang grenades into cars with people inside, pointed guns at children & demanded their zip tied parents not comfort them. apple.news/Ausdx6kWtT0e...
Idaho families sue over immigration raid that swept up hundreds, including U.S. citizens — NBC News
About 400 people, including children and U.S. citizens, were detained for four hours while they were denied food and water in the raid, according to the lawsuit.

Her behavior is telling... The lies, disrespect, and audacity is 🤯🤯🤯
I’ve watched a lot of congressional hearings over the last 40 years. This performance by Bondi is the single most unprofessional, non-responsive, reprehensible and obnoxious I have ever seen from any witness who has testified before any committee of either chamber.

I and millions of Americans believe exactly the same thing Kasparov does.
Too many troops, too many new prisons, too much money not under Congressional supervision.
We're not just witnessing a mass deportation scheme anymore.
This is something significantly bigger and scarier.

Damn Right This Is What Brings It Down
Because the “Epstein story” isn’t a story anymore; it’s a paper trail. It’s leverage. It’s compounding pressure. And it’s starting to break people.

@rokhanna.bsky.social: I was in Ghislaine Maxwell’s deposition today. It was shameful. She basically said other powerful people committed these crimes but she won’t name them unless she’s granted clemency.
She needs to be sent back to a maximum security prison immediately.

I don’t give a shit about Brett Favre’s racist opinion regarding Bad Bunny, what I do care about is that he still isn’t in jail for committing welfare fraud after he stole $5M from the Mississippi Welfare Fund to build a sports facility for his daughter.
