Will it be national news? Will it cause performative outrage? Will he be censured?

Nope. Forgotten by tomorrow.

Migrant children in custody are sleeping on concrete floors without enough food or clean water.

PBS News Hour: U.S. citizens detained by immigration agents describe how they were treated.

Watch the segment here www.youtube.com/watch?v=lMgC...

I'm clipping transcripts of the citizens speaking in this thread 1/3
GEORGE RETES: “My name is George Retes. I was born and raised here in Ventura, California. I’m 26 years old and I am an Iraq combat veteran. I was going to work like normal. I show up. ICE is there. There’s kind of like a roadblock. I get out. I identify myself — that I’m a U.S. citizen, that I’m just trying to get to work. I’m trying to leave. I’m getting ready to leave and they surround my car, start banging on it, start shouting these contradictory orders. Even though I was giving them no reason, they still felt the need to — one agent knelt on my back and another agent knelt on my neck. And during that time, I’m just pleading with them that I couldn’t breathe. I was in isolation. I was in basically this concrete cell. I was stripped naked in like a hospital gown. And they leave the lights on 24/7. They just came out and they said that I was violent and that I assaulted agents. Why lie when it’s on video of everything that happened? Why lie?”

ALIYA RAHMAN: “My name is Aliya Rahman. I was born in Northern Wisconsin, grew up in Bangladesh. I now live in Minneapolis. I came upon a traffic jam that I pretty quickly realized was ICE. I was told: ‘Move. I will break your effing window.’ And I couldn’t get a clear answer to where they wanted me to move to. Very quickly, I was pulled out of that car. I fell twice — once right outside the car, and once behind the car face down. I am disabled. I am autistic. I have a brain injury. And when I hit that ground face first, I just experienced shooting pain through my neck, through my head. My vision became blurry. What happened to me in detention was far worse than what happened to me on camera. What happened to me in detention was a complete stripping of my rights. Nobody knew I was there. I wasn’t told where I was going. I wasn’t given a phone call. And I’m going unconscious and I’m wondering — is this it? They call us bodies. Is this it for me? Am I going to die? I want to live in a country where people who are enforcing the law treat people humanely.”

GINA CHRIST: “My name is Gina Christ. And I live in St. Louis Park, Minnesota. I was on my way to work. There’s people all around my car. I have both hands up on either side of my face — you cannot hear me. An ICE agent breaks my driver’s side window, glass, reaches in, opens my door, pulls me out of the door, tells me to get on the ground, zip-ties me — and now gas, flashbangs, pepper spray. There was no need. They detoured to grab me. They could have continued to drive. Their cars were past my car. They passed my car, jumped out of their cars, apprehended me, and kept going. Once I was detained, it was very like, ‘Do you have water? Are you comfortable? How’s the heat?’ It was a very schizophrenic experience. I mean, this is insane. This isn’t anything that could minutely be referred to as a couple of bad apples.”

rubio’s invocation of “western civilization” — defined here as racial and religious chauvinism, if not outright supremacy — is a rejection of the more egalitarian and universalistic notions that came out of america’s two revolutions.

Courts have ruled 4,400 times that ICE jailed people illegally. It hasn’t stopped.

The decisions amount to a huge legal rebuke, but the administration has continued jailing people indefinitely.

Everyone around the world knows that Trump and his admin is full of shit on the “ending 8 wars” claims, but all they can do is roll their eyes and laugh amongst themselves because the petulant child and his cultists like Waltz will get mad if they call it out publicly.

REPORTER: Why choose to do this press conference this way? Your agency is about to run out of funding. You were just in Arizona last week. And you bussed all of us to a secure facility. This doesn't seem top secret.

Ah, I see. Bill “Not Legally the FA US Attorney” Essayli sent out the goon squad to menace a crowd of Jewish activists standing in solidarity with their neighbors on Shabbat because an ICE agent broke from his group, tried to arrest a high schooler, and got wrecked by a bunch of teens earlier today

Trump: “The Democrats refuse to vote for Voter I.D., or Citizenship. The reason is very simple — They want to continue to cheat in Elections. This was not what our Founders desired. I have searched the depths of Legal Arguments not yet articulated or vetted on this subject, and will be presenting an irrefutable one in the very near future.

In latest batshit screed, Trump calls Democrats “demented and evil.” So much for toning down the rhetoric.
We cannot let the Democrats get away with NO VOTER I.D. any longer. These are horrible, disingenuous CHEATERS. They have all sorts of reasons why it shouldn’t be passed, and then boldly laugh in the backrooms after their ridiculous presentations. If it weren’t such a serious matter, it would be considered a TOTAL JOKE! No Voter I.D. is even crazier, and more ridiculous, than Men playing in Women’s Sports, Open Borders, or Transgender for Everyone. Republicans must put this at the top of every speech — It is a CAN’T MISS FOR RE-ELECTION IN THE MIDTERMS, AND BEYOND! Even Democrat Voters agree, 85%, that there should be Voter I.D. It’s only the Political “Leaders,” Crooked Losers like Schumer and Jeffries, that have no shame, and explain why it’s “racist,” and every other thing that they can think of. This is an issue that must be fought, and must be fought, NOW! If we can’t get it through Congress, there are Legal reasons why this SCAM is not permitted. I will be presenting them shortly, in the form of an Executive Order. I hope the Supreme Court realizes, as they “painstakingly” review the very simple topic of Country Saving Tariffs (Those same Tariffs that have been used, by other Countries, against the U.S.A. to drain it of its Treasure and Security — for many years!), and all sorts of other things, that are making our Country Rich, Powerful, and Safe Again, that these Corrupt and Deranged Democrats, if they ever gain power, will not only be adding two States to our roster of 50, with all of the baggage thereto, but will also PACK THE COURT with a total of 21 Supreme Court Justices, THEIR DREAM, which they will submit easily and rapidly when they immediately move to terminate the Filibuster, probably in their first week, or sooner. Our Country will never be the same if they allow these demented and evil people to knowingly, and happily, destroy it. Thank you for your attention to this matter — SAVE AMERICA! PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP

The default assumption should be that they’re lying
DHS: Our officer was ambushed and beaten with snow shovels and broom handles. This was an attempted murder of federal law enforcement. ICE says federal agents appear to have lied about confrontation that led to shooting Agents had initially said that two men — Alfredo Aljorna and Julio Sosa Celis – assaulted them with a broom and a shovel before one of them shot Sosa Celis. But that account was quickly called into question, and prosecutors now say “newly discovered evidence” contradicts the officers’ story.
