Americans have been dragged, tackled, beaten, tased and shot by immigration agents.

They’ve had their necks kneeled on.

They’ve been held outside in the rain while in their underwear.

At least three citizens were pregnant when agents detained them.

By @nicolefoy.bsky.social

More Than 170 U.S. Citizens Have Been Held by Immigration Agents. They’ve Been Kicked, Dragged and Detained for Days.

The government does not track how often immigration agents grab citizens. So ProPublica did. Our tally — almost certainly incomplete — includes people who were held for days without a lawyer. And near...

The anti-vax, anti-public health dark money group, The Brownstone Institute, is on BlueSky as of yesterday.

It joined up the same day Politico revealed that its founders had allegations of inappropriate sexual behavior at their workplace: the American Institute for Economic Research.

While Gorski and Yamey provided no evidence that Koch money funded the GBD signatories, the BMJ still published their piece….The BMJ article is full of errors that ought to have never found their way into any publication,” wrote Martin Kulldorff in the Spectator. brownstone.org/articles/cov...

Covid Bias at the BMJ ⋆ Brownstone Institute

This week, Ioannidis and his colleagues published a paper on Covid-19 advocacy bias in the BMJ, concluding that the ‘BMJ had a strong bias.’

First Trump administration story in a while that genuinely shocked me:

Rubio promised to betray U.S. informants to get Trump’s El Salvador prison deal

To secure U.S. access to President Nayib Bukele’s notorious CECOT prison, Rubio agreed to turn over several MS-13 leaders central to a long-running Justice Department investigation.

Cancel SPOTIFY.

They are running ICE ads.

F them.

Is Spotify running ICE recruitment ads? Here are the facts

The advertising "is part of a broad campaign the US government is running" across various platforms — not just Spotify, a spokesperson told Snopes.

Hi, I'm the ProPublica reporter who's been tracking an unusual stat: U.S. citizens grabbed by immigration agents.

I did it because the government isn’t.

This is what I found.

White words on a black background read:

50+
Immigration agents have the authority to detain whom they reasonably suspect are in the country illegally. We found more than 50 Americans who were held after agents questioned their citizenship. They were almost all Latino.

~130
Agents also can arrest citizens who allegedly interfered with or assaulted officers. We compiled cases of about 130 Americans, including a dozen elected officials, accused of assaulting or impeding officers.

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

I hear from informed sources that these #NoKings rallies are more than twice as big as last time, making them easily the largest protests in US history. Thanks to everyone and especially organizers.

The DHS narrative about what happened the day they ICE agents killed Villegas González has continued to fall apart.

This was our initial report the day after they shot and killed him.

What happened to Silverio Villegas González

Immigration agents shot and killed an unarmed 38-year-old father outside Chicago on Friday—and their initial narrative of events was quickly disproven by videos captured by witnesses.
