Under the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations—of which the US is a party—foreign state consular premises are considered “inviolable,” which means federal agents cannot enter without the permission of the mission's head.
1/27/2026 - Minneapolis

ICE just attempted an illegal entry into the ECUADORIAN CONSULATE to abduct someone

They did not have a warrant

I am. But there are three things at play here regarding ICE collecting private data. Quick rundown on the issue, why you should be paying attention, and what I'm doing about it:
So which politician is calling for the dismantling of the probably illegal database that ice & this government is collecting biometric data of protesters?

Ah so the people with guns get to be anonymous but the people actually protecting others get fed to the right wing harassment machine, is that it? bsky.app/profile/dbra...
TOM HOMAN: “We’re going to create a database where those people that are arrested for interference, impeding and assault, we’re going to make them famous. We’re going to put their face on TV. We’re going to let their employers, in their neighborhoods, in their schools, know who these people are.”

Bovino is not enough. Steven Miller & Secretary Noem are complicit in the murder of a patriotic American citizen, who they disgustingly slandered as an “assassin” and a “domestic terrorist.” Resign, get fired, or face impeachment. They both need to go. Now.

Exactly this.
I know some of my followers don’t like it when Republicans and Trump rampage across the country and then I mention Dems quickly but… there are quite a few powerful Dems basically seeking to give Trump an off ramp right now.

Here's what ICE is up to in Northeast Minneapolis today. Absolutely heartbreaking.

Something important to understand about ICE thugs in the Twin Cities is that they're harassing innocent kids and parents at bus stops and schools every single day. Even after the Pretti shooting. It's terrorism.

Kristi Noem must resign.

And if she won’t, she must be held accountable and impeached by Congress.

"Whether you think DHS was always a mistake or whether you believe it was a necessary response to 9/11, it wasn’t very long ago. If you can remember a world before “Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets,” you can remember a world without DHS. And so you can imagine a future without it as well."

Let me chime in here and say David French can't see anything but white, and he still needs to repent for helping evangelicals come to power with republicans.
@hebagowayed.bsky.social and I started a newsletter we hope works as a corrective to mainstream discussions of race (or the lack thereof). In the first post, I reply to David French, arguing that the US legal system has always been ”dual” for nonwhites. Jim Crow and Immigration policy are examples.
David French argued Renee Good's murder is an example of the US having two sytems of law: orderly for friends & belligerent for foes. @victorerikray.bsky.social corrects him: US law has always promised fascism for non-whites & those who stand with them.

It’s good to see Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.) and Rand Paul (R-Ky.) asking the same obvious question:

Why is the man who shot and killed Alex Pretti still on the job? www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...
Lawmakers ask why the agent who shot and killed Alex Pretti is still on the job
“It defies common sense — and is completely inexcusable — that the agent who killed Alex Pretti ... is already back in the field,” one key congressman said.

Everyone needs a ride or die like Lindsey. The kind that holds your hair back when you puke. Loyal no matter what. Cheerleading you every step of the way no matter how unhinged your behavior.

Lindsey has been supporting this Trump/Noem/Homan/Miller “immigration” policy every step of the way.

ICE is riddled with sex criminals.

A January 2026 report by the Pacific Antifascist Research Collective identified 30 ICE and CBP agents with documented convictions and arrests, some for serious violent and sexual crimes.

At least 20 committed offenses with underage victims.

Long past time.

Everyone involved with this reign of terror — including Kristi Noem and Stephen Miller — needs to be fired immediately.
Exclusive: Border Patrol “Commander at Large” Gregory Bovino has been removed from his role and is expected to retire soon, sources tell Nick Miroff.

The Border Patrol chief was the public face of a traveling immigration crackdown on cities governed by Democrats.

This is progress, but we are not letting up.

Demand your Senators vote no on a bill that would keep funding ICE while doing nothing to keep us safe from these out of control federal agents. Take action at aclu.org/stop_ice_attacks-

A sliding scale of ICE politics, L to R (literally & figuratively)

1) Moulton, AOC: TRIBUNALS
2) Most of the GWB White House - ABOLISH
3) Fox News - DEFUND (strongly)
4) Catholic Church - DEFUND (less strongly)
5) Schumer/Jeffries - between DEFUND & BETTER REGULATION
6) Trump: EXPAND ICE
Okay I think I've mapped out ICE politics as of Monday night
