US citizen Maria Greeley, a Latina who was adopted, was walking home from work downtown when masked agents zip tied her. They said she “doesn’t look like a Greeley.” This is how the government treats people under current deportation policies.

Here's the key: MBS rules Saudi with an iron fist, suppressing dissent and hacking reporters to death whose questions he does not like. Trump, not to be outdone, wants to show an authoritarian ruler that he can compete too.
Calling the ABC reporter’s question “insubordinate” explains everything about how Trump sees press freedom.
Q: Why wait for Congress to release the Epstein files? Why not just do it now?
TRUMP: It's not the question that I mind. It's your attitude. I think you're a terrible reporter. It's the way you ask these questions. You start off with a man who's highly respected asking him an insubordinate question

The brutal detention of three people who came to the U.S. legally reveals a cruel system that operates with impunity.

For two months, the U.S. government has been racial profiling as masked federal agents hunted for immigrants throughout Chicago. They’ve repeatedly snatched up U.S. citizens while traumatizing communities. “I felt like a piece of trash.” Here is our story www.chicagotribune.com/2025/11/15/l...

A witness in our case had ICE reject all her documents after using facial rec on her.
For her, tho, it seemed like nothing could make them accept that she has a right to be here.
Either way, a gov policy of not trusting gov-issued docs is going to violate lots of people's rights.
