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.

A MAJOR SHAKE-UP AND A RED FLAG 🚩

Navy Admiral Alvin Holsey resigned after 37 years.

Trump’s escalated strikes in Venezuela raised legal alarms. Behind the scenes, Holsey clashed with Pete Hegseth over the mission.

I feel like George Santos exemplifies a lot of what’s broken in the “justice” system. He was a corrupt politician, he briefly experienced the horrors of inhumane prison conditions, then the corrupt president moved to yank him out—and his victims received none of what they were owed in the process

Fun fact:

The RCMP are responsible for detecting threats and preventing harm from coming to Poilievre.

He calls them despicable. Corrupt.

But they will continue to do their job for this ungrateful sh*t because they’re neither despicable nor corrupt.

PP doesn’t have his security clearance. How is this troll allowed to stand in parliament to fabricate and smear and create division? He is unqualified to lead. Period.

This dude needs a thorough investigation. Something is rotten in the state of CONservatism.

Pierre Poilievre has gone full MAGA — parroting Trump word for word. Raging about DEI, deportations, ending birthright citizenship, jailing opponents, and calling our cities “war zones.”

Canadians aren’t stupid. We see the lies — and we’ll keep calling them out. 🇨🇦

This video of the "ICE" agent [?] with no ID, who thinks claiming to be in the DHS means he's allowed to drive his kids around drunk answers two questions:

1. Many ICE agents probably *are* just cosplaying vigilantes with issues; and

2. Many think claiming to be ICE means they can disobey laws.

StrictlyChristo 🐸❌👑 @strictlychristo.bsky.social · 23h

Divorced, whiny ICE goon gets arrested for driving drunk with his kids in the car.

He acts like he’s above the law, stating, “I’m Federal.” He also confronts one of the arresting officers, asking, “Are you Haitian?” And makes a big deal out of getting an answer because, "It does matter!"
