Left Twitter when Musk first took over and was fine being social media-free. But now I'm gonna need some company and news to get through the next 4 years.
@whitehouse.senate.gov @amo.house.gov @schumer.senate.gov Don't back down - no one is fooled by Trump's "softening" language. ICE hasn't backed down. Stand up for us, for democracy, for civil rights.
“An administration official gave away the game to Punchbowl News, admitting that these “de-escalatory measures” are about placating Senate Democrats so they don’t seize this moment to demand restrictions on ICE as part of any government funding package.”

Donald Trump Is Frightened
Trump wants to appear eager to minimize out-of-control clashes between government militias and protesters. But he doesn’t want to stop the things causing those clashes in the first place.

This is the way, make “ok, abolish only ICE” the moderate position.
Amid growing calls for the abolition of ICE, Rep. Delia Ramirez is calling for the entire DHS to be dismantled. Highlighting how much experience the officers who killed Renee Good and Alex Pretti had, Ramirez said, “DHS was built to violate our rights and has been empowered to act with impunity.”

Consisten with MAGA’s handling of the Epstein files.
ICE & U.S. Customs & Border Protection employed at least 30 people with sexual & violent criminal histories in recent years.

At least 20 agents committed offenses with underage victims. The bulk of abuse happened within the last two years.

This article includes names of the agents.

Fed’l judges still doing their jobs. And the point here is important-gov’t lawyers have a duty of candor to the courts. Concealing flaws in your argument violates that duty. Doing it persistently merits bar discipline. It’s time for the gloves to come off on this one for lawyers who disregard ethics

The leadership of ICE, Border Patrol, and the Department of Homeland Security has failed to protect civil liberties & maintain the public’s trust.

Kristi Noem must resign and there must be an immediate stand down of ICE and CBP interior operations. Accountability now.

Everything they learned in Minnesota they’re applying in Maine from day one. They started off doing fast-moving snatch and grabs on the street, recording and using facial id on observers, and threatening observers directly. They’ll do it all where you live too.
Why is the msm outside of Maine not covering this? It seems like a huge and very troubling story to me. ICE coming to observers houses or calling them on the phone warning them to back off??!! www.pressherald.com/2026/01/23/i...
