Sherrill: "We see a POTUS illegally usurping power. He's unconstitutionally enacted a tariff regime to make billions for himself while everyone else's costs go higher. Here we demand people in public service actually serve the public instead of extorting money to benefit themselves & their cronies."

He goes on to describe one of his officers being stopped when she was off-duty solely because she's non-white, harassed by ICE goons who slapped her phone out of her hand as she tried to record, only to be let go when she finally revealed she was a cop.
Brooklyn Park police chief Mark Bruley: "We're hearing people being stopped with no cause & being demanded to show paperwork to determine if they're here legally. We started hearing from our police officers the same complaints. Every one of these individuals is a person of color... it has to stop"

How a new firm with DHS ties won a $915 million contract to help immigrants “self-deport.”

The “rushed” deal was handed to a firm with “no track record” as a federal contractor, a rival’s lawsuit alleges.

I flew down to south Texas today to do my job - investigate why people are dying in ICE detention centers.

I was just illegally denied entry to Dilley Detention Center. Because they have something to hide.

I’ve been writing Popular Information for 8 years, and this is one of the most important stories I’ve ever published. This is a humanitarian crisis that has gone unreported.
ICE has stopped paying for detainee medical treatment
ICE halted payments in October, and the situation will persist for at least several more months

Sen. Markwayne Mullin bought up to $50K each in Raytheon stock (RTX) & Chevron (CVX) just days before the U.S. strike on Venezuela—

Mullin sits on the Senate Armed Services Committee — I’m sure it’s just a coincidence..

This is what happened in our neighborhood yesterday. ICE snatched a human being off of our streets, roughed them up badly, and then pepper sprayed legal observers as they documented it all. This is a daily occurrence happening all throughout Minnesota right now.

Just as everyone predicted with the exception of Donald Trump, Scott Bessent, Howard Lutnick, and Kevin Hassett. The last 3 knew they’ve been lying, not sure with Orange Caligula because he’s a moron and a liar so in his case it could be either one or both.

All it would take is for a bunch of these CEOs to confront Trump in front of the world and tell him he's unfit to run a hot-dog stand, and his presidency would be over. Seriously.

But none of them has the balls to do it.

The irony of ICE detaining and disappearing the original Americans should stop everyone cold.

As a Lakota proverb says, when you discover you’re riding a dead horse, the best strategy is to dismount. This system isn’t broken. It’s dead.

Katharine Hepburn w/Spencer Tracy in a 1942 movie Keeper of the Flame remind us fascism has been here before. The plot was fictional but there was an attempt by the wealthy to overthrow FDR. With testimony from a military hero, Congress investigated & let the guilty off scot-free. Not this time
