BREAKING — Mayor of Lewiston, Maine posts on FB that ICE is coming to the city imminently. This confirms my reporting the agency is planning a surge in the city and state generally.
Lewiston is home to a large Somali-American population, which made up 4.6% of the population as of the 2020 census.

ICE detained Arlit Maria Martinez on her way to work. 2 days later, her 15 yo son died of cancer. They wouldn't let her out to say goodbye. The family had planned to move back to Mexico prior to the cancer diagnosis but stayed for his treatment. Now, Mr Martinez has lost his wife to ICE & his son.

"Here, I had finally found peace and safe harbor. That has been taken from me forever."
Its dangerous to be a human in this country.
“She behaved horribly.”
That’s how President Donald Trump described Renee Good, the 37-year-old woman who was repeatedly shot and killed by an ICE officer on Wednesday.

They couldn’t care less about Renee Good’s killing
A disdain for facts and the reflex to taint a dead woman crystallize a new level of grotesqueness.

Cody Bentley's logic is somewhat confusing to me. What is Denmark doing wrong in this equation, and why isn't it "Fuck our government for all the stuff I complained about." They are the ones who caused his complaints?

Trump: "Transgender for everyone! Bring your kids in, we're gonna change the sex of your child. Just send them our way. In some cases, like in Minnesota, they don't even tell the parents. Nobody believes it when I say it. They operate on the kid, they don't tell the parents. It's not believable."
