It's International Anti-Corruption Day.

Some of Trump’s most blatant acts of corruption are well-known by now—the crypto coin; the pardons for friends and donors.

Less known are a series of corrupt policy moves that are raising costs for you and your family.

Some examples ⬇️

DHS is saying this is a lie. My response? They have no credibility.

This is not what I'm hearing from the community. This spokesperson is a miserable propagandist and proven liar, so there's no reason for anyone to believe her.

I want proof that Jose is unharmed & being treated with basic dignity.

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

There are so many holes in DHS’s story it’s nuts. They say this woman was driving her boyfriend’s car, who they claim is undocumented.

ICE pulls her over, see she’s alone, know they are looking for a man, and still handcuff her while she screams “I am a US citizen,”.

Why is ICE harassing women?

Hegseth had clear rules before these strikes began to rescue shipwrecked survivors who were no longer a threat and only re-engage if they took hostile action. Instead, after two men survived the Sept. 2 strike, he let an order stand to kill them anyway. That is not a fog-of-war mistake.

You have the right to record ICE.

You have the right to film any operation happening in public as long as you do not interfere or impede it.

It is simply outrageous that an American citizen was detained at all by ICE.

And it's adding insult to injury to claim that Tribal IDs are fake. This is racial profiling.

Trump's mass deportation agenda is sick and wrong. It helps no one and it's hurting Americans.
