For instance, guidelines for ICE to require to do the job.
Badge, warrant and NO racial profiling. No masks and hidden identity with the division they are from marked on the vehicle.
NO quotas or bonuses
No trolling.

There are actually quite a few undocumented Russians in the US.
Anyone have any videos of ICE forcefully deporting them?
Or just the brown people?

When experts warned for months that the NWS “is being destroyed” by Trump’s personnel cuts, Howard Lutnick assured Congress that forecasting won’t be affected. Now TX officials are blaming a faulty forecast by NWS for the deadly impact of a storm. open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...

Well-informed ppl know Trump ran for 2nd term to escape indictments/incarceration. Trump had powerful sources with nefarious agendas get him re-elected. If not Donald would’ve been spending his time avoiding his own imprisonment. Trump NEVER belonged in Fed Office; Trump belongs in Fed Prison.

Blue states should band together to draft a constitutional amendment for universal healthcare.
If red states can organize to ban rights, blue states can organize to save lives.
Healthcare is a human right. Put it in the Constitution.

We need to normalize that it’s not “politicizing” when people die due to political decisions. Especially when there are warnings of the consequences when the decisions are made.

I will fight for each one of these children & I hope you’re as outraged as I am & join me.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.
I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

This isn’t policy.
This isn’t leadership.
Cutting Medicaid is fucking cruelty, plain and simple.
And if you think voters are too distracted or too tired to notice?
Wait until November.
We’ll remind you who you work for.

Trump’s trillions transfer has passed.
Tax cuts for the rich, health care and program cuts for everyone else, adding Trillions in debt, while making Trump’s Gestapo one of the most expensive armies in the world.
A dark day. 🇺🇸

The 2 things we need to study now are Project 2025 and this abomination of a bill. We need to be prepared and we need to figure out how and where we can counteract the devastating impact of them. Piece by piece. Maybe even create a think tank group for “out-of-the-box” ideas. #NeverGiveUp

To those who rely on Medicaid or SNAP:
You are not imagining the fear.
You are not overreacting.
You are being told—clearly—that your survival is negotiable.
That is violence.
And you deserve better.
We see you.
We are not leaving you behind.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.
