I distinctly remember in the first Trump years when people would be like “no, you can’t call them fascist”

Among the many reasons you don’t kidnap a foreign head of state at gunpoint even if you have the capability, is that it sparks consequences you can neither control nor anticipate.

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.

Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

A US president uses his for-profit (but money losing) social media site to announce a military strike against a foreign sovereign nation and the seizure by military force of a foreign government leader. Says a lot about where things are at in the US in 2026.

ICE vs ice at 44th and Hiawatha earlier today.

Trump admin is seeking contractors to build 9,500-person detention warehouse in Dallas County. That's nearly 3x larger than the current biggest facility at Fort Bliss. Plans call for 80,000+ total capacity nationwide.

Houston's police force and Texas Senate Bill 8 resulted in the most anti-immigrant implementation of ICE enforcement in all of the U.S. in 2025. ~5,200 community arrests and ~9,300 jail-based detentions in about 9 months is simply devastating.

1 in 5 U.S. counties will have an active 287(g) agreement by the end of January

Jan. 2025: only 4% of counties participating in a handful of states

Today: 75+ MILLION people in 39 states live in a county with an agreement

Full breakdown of the insane growth ⤵️

Kristi Noem and Stephen Miller danced to "Ice Ice Baby" at the Mar-a-Lago NYE party last night. Just a reminder that this whole thing is a game to these people. Vote them out, all of them that support this embarrassing and violent charade.

😳 "Trump administration has not followed through on its immigration enforcement commitments, according to Mike Howell, a visiting fellow at the Heritage Foundation’s Border Security and Immigration Center."

Remember: it will never be enough for them.

The official Department of Justice recruitment page is saying the quiet part out loud: they don’t care about law, they only care about deportations. Flagrant. False. Possibly illegal. This is why many of us have advocated for an independent immigration court for years. 

SOMEONE: Fuck you!

BOVINO: That’s not very nice.

THE MOST MOM VOICE YOU’VE EVER HEARD: Well, are you doing nice things?

I simply refuse to accept that police ever have to look like this. this is just pure cosplay. it should be illegal for cops to be dressed like soldiers going to war.

In Chicago, a woman was driving to get coffee when a DHS vehicle fleeing an angry crowd crashed into her car. Armed agents jumped out of the vehicle, yanked her door open, pulled her by the legs out of her car at gunpoint, held her incommunicado for hours, then released her with no charges.

I'm shaking almost too hard to type. I entered SLC airport and heard screams and cries for help. I could see people gathered around, watching. I sped over to discover this woman face down on the floor, four grown men pushing her down, while she cried "HELP ME" and pled for her child.
