The fact that they are making Bovino the fall guy shows that they are worried, but it does not mean that any policy changes.

Agree. This is window dressing, not a sincere moral/policy shift. It’s desperation in light of falling poll numbers and their need to fund DHS to continue this mess.

A lot more people should know about the bravery Marimar Martinez displayed in the midst of Chicago’s occupation and the murder of two observers in MSP. They tried to kill her, shooting her 5 times, and it’s a miracle she’s alive to push for transparency like this after being persecuted by the DOJ.
The woman who survived five gunshots from a Border Patrol agent in Chicago, only to be criminally charged and then cleared, now wants a judge’s permission to share records showing how the feds respond when agents use deadly force.

Videos of young adults, giddy at the rare snowfall and ice-covered roads, were all over Instagram and TikTok feeds this weekend. Some were taking part in a dangerous trend — “truck sledding” — or dragging a person behind a vehicle on icy roads.

Late-night protests at ICE's hotels can be extremely effective — but not if they damage property or harass staff. Doing so only plays into the hands of corporate leaders, ICE, and Trump

If you make noise outside hotels ICE is staying at, these agents won’t want to stay there and hotels won’t want to house them
If enough hotels don’t want to house ICE, then they don’t have somewhere to stay
