for starters, it's about birthright citizenship

just neither the Court nor the admin wanted to say that aloud bc they know they're dead wrong

The budget bill contains tens of billions to fund an army of 10,000 more ICE agents. This is a red alert moment for our democracy.

🚨 The Dept of Defense is shutting down its weather satellite program. No more data. No more updates. Meteorologists are scrambling—and we’re heading into peak storm season.

Brilliant timing.

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people:

1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money
3) We won’t need a lot of troops
4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq
5) We’ll find WMDs
6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators
7) It will be easy
8) It won’t take long

All lies.

“ICE” as snatching people from churches now. Never forget they said this👇🏾

MAN AT CHURCH: “We don’t want this in our property.”

ICE: “The whole country is our property.”

No IDs shown, non-government out of state plates, basic tactical vests that just say police. Who are these men?

it seems like a good time to remind everyone that police are not required to protect or serve you.

that phrase is just propaganda.

The government kidnappers' latest. Traumatizing children is likely one of the perks of working for ICE.
ICE is going to parks in Los Angeles and kidnapping nannies who are caring for small children

The children are witnessing these kidnappings and being held in custody until their parents are contacted

ICE poses choice reminiscent of Sophie's Choice to immigration attorney.
This ICE agent tells an immigration attorney of her three clients: "I'm not picky so I'm giving you the options cause I have to take one. If not I'll take all."

He is quite literally saying that ICE is simply deporting people at random to meet a quota.
