A school superintendent in Minnesota explains how a 5-year-old asylum seeker was used by ICE as bait.
"I can't even imagine as a mother myself how conflicted she must have been seeing ... her husband standing in the driveway in handcuffs saying don't open the door and also hearing her little one."

FBI supervisory agent Tracee Mergen in Minneapolis resigned after FBI leadership in DC pressured her to discontinue an investigation into ICE agent Jonathan Ross, who shot & killed Renee Good.

Israel should be expelled from the UN.
This week, Israeli forces stormed and destroyed the UNRWA headquarters in East Jerusalem after forcing UN staff out at gunpoint.
This is a sustained attack on the primary international agency keeping Palestinian refugees alive.

it's cool that so many people in positions of power and influence were so negatively polarized by "wokeness" that they convinced themselves that there was an actual debate about who wanted to erase history and the "wokes" were on the wrong side bsky.app/profile/arch...
"Slavery was real"

abolish ice, then prosecute
Blumenthal: "I'm a no vote on that spending bill unless there are conditions that require ICE to go to a judge, to get a warrant, as well as other kinds of constraints -- the use of masks, the non-identification, the unmarked cars. These secret police, totalitarian tactics need to be stopped."
