Current DOJ use of force policy states that even if the ICE officer did what Trump, Vance and others are claiming he did, that's still not allowed. From the policy here: www.justice.gov/archives/ag/...

George Orwell warned that power thrives when people are told to deny what they see and hear. When truth is distorted and fear replaces facts, freedom erodes. A healthy society asks hard questions, protects human dignity, and refuses blind obedience - no matter who demands it. #HumanRights 💔🇺🇸

Abolish #ICE.
“In August, ICE guards found 32-year-old Chaofeng Ge hanging in a shower stall at the Moshannon Valley Processing Center in Philipsburg, Pa. Although investigators ruled Ge’s death a suicide, the autopsy report stated that he was found with his hands and feet tied behind his back.”
“The five deaths of Asian nationals in ICE custody in 2025 are not just isolated tragedies. They reveal a system that has expanded faster than oversight can follow.” www.latimes.com/opinion/stor...

This Immigration Judge, Vice Chair of the National Association of Immigration Judges, was fired with no explanation. Over 100 IJs have been fired. There is currently a backlog of 3.4 million #immigration cases. How does this make any sense??

I am wondering where the #VT National Guard is being deployed. They are being activated this month.
