In my fifty years in politics, I don’t think I’ve seen anything like this before.

I haven't always agreed with Jerome Powell, but what Donald Trump is doing is out of the dictator’s playbook.

Kudos to Powell for speaking out.

Turns out it is much safer to attack the U.S. Capitol than it is to drive away from ICE. Who knew?

Illinois Secretary of State Alexi Giannoulias just announced he is suing Kristi Noem and #FuckICE for unlawful activities in Illinois.

This is huge.

House Speaker Mike Johnson apparently doesn’t understand how our justice system works. He said if Fed Chair Jerome Powell is innocent, “then he can prove that.” No, Mikey, he doesn’t need to prove he’s innocent. His accusers need to prove he’s guilty.

It would take a two-word amendment to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 to subject ICE agents and other federal law enforcement officers to the same liability for constitutional violations that local and state officers currently face.

If Congress actually cared about what it's seeing, it could pass that overnight.

semi-regular reminder that ICE was only created in 2003

when you are asked to imagine a world without ICE, you're basically being asked to remember where you were when Lilo & Stitch came out

"The Twin Cities-based Immigrant Defense Network says the group has trained 2,000 observers so far, including 354 people the day after Good was killed.

“We tell people: You have a right to record. If ICE tells you not to, just back up — but keep recording..."

They say they’re monitoring ICE arrests. Feds say they’re breaking the law.
The fatal shooting of Renée Good last week, as ICE officers and residents faced off on a Minneapolis street here, has brought new attention to ICE monitoring.

In democratic societies, the use of lawful force depends on legitimacy ... When officers purposely conceal their faces and perform their duties without name tapes or badge numbers ... they turn authority into anonymity.

ICE won’t even match the courage and professionalism of the Iraqi Police.

ICE is about TERRORIZING Americans, not immigration. They want chaos and fear, not safety.

Just a reminder, Trump's DOJ was required by LAW to release 100% of the Epstein files by December 19th. Guess what they've released so far? .6%! No wonder Trump has unleashed ICE goons in Minnesota. It makes for a great distraction.

Don't bother arguing about whether ICE is a police force or a military force. It's neither. It behaves as a disorganized, violent mob, cursing, shouting contradictory orders, and attacking unarmed citizens on a whim. It is deployed to create fear and chaos, not to enforce laws or establish order.

Face it.

ICE HAS ALIENATED AMERICANS by slamming their victims faces into the ground, wearing mask, not identifying themselves and using aggressive “Gestapo” tactics on immigrants & citizens alike. Americans are resisting, as they should.

It is time to defund ICE!

I want for Putin to regret destroying the United States from within via Donald Trump because the nation will not only heal but establish ACTUAL equity and equality.

It’s a psychological game. Surrendering now assures he wins.
