Agents in Key Largo, Florida ripped this woman wearing medical scrubs out of her car as she screamed she is a US citizen. Agents cuffed her and put her in one of their cars.

She was eventually let go, per David Goodhue of the Miami Herald, who also took this footage:

"Among the citizens detained are nearly 20 children, including two with cancer."

That's who ICE arrested and disappeared as part of Donald Trump's immigration policy.

It's outrageous.

I've been pressing for answers and I'll keep pushing for accountability.

I’m in Chicago where Trump continues his push for the largest mass deportation campaign in American history and to send federal troops to U.S. cities — and local leaders and civilians continue to push back.

1. Federal agents from ICE and other agencies are wrongly detaining U.S. citizens, sometimes detaining them for days, on suspicion that they are undocumented immigrants.

The raids are done without search warrants or other procedures designed to protect civil liberties.
How federal agents are terrorizing American citizens
Last week, hundreds of heavily armed federal agents descended on an apartment complex in Chicago, arriving in Black Hawk helicopters and moving trucks.

This is really, really bad
ICE brutally detains U.S. citizen just for filming—knocking her unconscious.

"Agents took her to a side alley, beat her up, then called an ambulance," witness said.

"Then they kidnapped her from the hospital—without a formal discharge—and took her to Downtown LA Detention Center."

Only an administration intent on committing war crimes in the present and future would stoop to calling Wounded Knee a "battle" rather than what it truly was: a massacre of over 250 Lakotas, mainly women, children, and the elderly. 1/

A government shutdown may sound complicated, but it's not.

Democrats want to protect health care for working families.

Republicans want to slash health care. Millions would lose coverage. Millions more would pay higher prices.

That's what is at stake.

BREAKING: By an apparent 6–3 vote, the Supreme Court halts an injunction that had prevented immigration agents from racially profiling Latinos in central California.

Sotomayor, dissenting, says the decision is "unconscionably irreconcilable with our nation's constitutional guarantees."

Nory Sontay Ramos was a thriving high school student in L.A. until she and her mom were deported by the Trump administration in July. For @msnbc.com, we visited her in Guatemala as she tries to graduate remotely while hiding from the same gang they fled years ago. www.msnbc.com/msnbc/news/n...

Nory and her mother were following the rules. But as MSNBC reports from L.A. and Guatemala, U.S. officials deported them anyway — throwing their futures into jeopardy.

ICE currently at Fort Totten Metro — stay clear of the area.

If you see someone being detained, film it, get their name & a family contact and DM us to coordinate getting that information & we will connect them to Migrant Solidarity.
