ICE WARNING...

Ice goons are now filming Rapid Response volunteers and running their plates to get their personal information. They then use that personal information to intimidate Rapid Responders. This, of course is illegal, but they operate with impunity and local law enforcement goes along.

HOW TRUMP HAS POCKETED $1,408,500,000

The president took an oath to serve the American people. Instead, he’s focused his second term on enriching himself and his family.

One year in of Trump’s second term and it already feels like a decade.

I don’t feel we talk about this enough, but the amount of PTSD we’re all experiencing as a result of Donald Trump is off the charts.

Basically we’ve been living in trauma since 2016. Let that sink in - a decade of chaos. 😕

That is by design. Part of crippling the economy while shoveling obscene amounts of money to their cronies and suck-ups.
Immigrants who had jobs and lives who were not on welfare are now being supported by taxpayers making Trumps detention owner crownies more money. Now we are paying for something totally un necessary not only ICE 💰but the Detention centers making millions on peoples pain. 🤮🤮🤮🤮
"If ICE's expansion plans are realized, the immigration detention system will triple in size — detaining 120,000-150,000 people at any given time, mirroring the scale of Japanese American internment."

What is the ICE paramilitary trying to hide by not allowing lawful, Constitutional oversight by Congress?
I flew down to south Texas today to do my job - investigate why people are dying in ICE detention centers.

I was just illegally denied entry to Dilley Detention Center. Because they have something to hide.

When ICE agents realize the person they're holding is a US citizen, they push that person out the door of the building without their belongings, often including their coat. Temperatures are well below freezing. Part of what we do as volunteer medics is find these people and get them somewhere warm.

While Americans struggle with high costs of living and our own infrastructure problems, Trump is hell-bent on rebuilding Venezuela... Why?

So his billionaire friends can get rich off of Venezuela’s oil.

Moriarty: "A police officer of color who was off duty was boxed in by ICE - she's a citizen - they demanded to know who she was & see her papers. She was going to try to record it & they ripped the phone out of her hand. That happened to a cop. That's what's happening here on the streets of MN."
