New: The FBI is quietly urging ICE agents to properly ID themselves in the field.
In a bulletin to law enforcement last month, it warned of criminals posing as ICE to rob, rape, kidnap—a problem it says now demands national coordination to confront.

Weaponized gratitude is a key tool in the abuser's toolkit. The goal is to convince the victim that they owe the abuser so much, they should feel guilty for wanting to complain.

Surreal moment for America. Needless to say, if the normal police ever pulled something like this — pulling every single person out of an apartment building and handcuffing them to run warrant checks — they would be sued into oblivion.
Yet ICE is going to get away with it entirely.

The Trump administration fired nearly 20 immigration judges this month alone – on top of the 80+ that have been fired this year.
The move will likely make the backlog of immigration cases even worse.
Trump’s agenda was never about legal immigration. It was always about cruelty.

Remembering and reckoning with the terror inflicted upon enslaved people is the very least we can do.
And this is still too much for the fascists who need to refuse past terrors in order to perpetrate new ones.
