A group of Epstein survivors just formally demanded that the DOJ Inspector General open an investigation into how the heavily redacted Epstein files were released. They’re demanding action now to release the files and we stand with them.

Kristi Noem has been a complete and total failure at her job. She has violated her oath and has allowed ICE agents to terrorize our communities.
That’s why I’m joining @robinkelly.house.gov in calling for her impeachment.
We deserve better, she’s gotta go.

I swear DHS recruited a bunch of frustrated former high school bullies as ICE agents. And they really had to explain to them that hurt feelings don’t justify brute force.
LEAKED: After the ICE shooting of Renee Good, agents received a mandatory “legal refresher” on civil rights and use of force.

FBI raiding reporters homes at request of the Pentagon sounds completely legit and not at all like the USA has turned into an authoritarian state. I’m proud of the folks who realize what’s happening and are speaking out. I am ashamed of the cowards & fools that are complacent.

Let’s talk about abolishing ICE.
Very few people who say “abolish ICE” mean “abandon all immigration enforcement.” Rather, they mean “the structure of immigration enforcement is irretrievably broken and needs to be reorganized, just like we did 23 years ago when we created ICE.”

Pedophilia, extreme corruption, and rampant incompetence doesn't even dent Trump's hardcore MAGA support. The only way they'd ever turn from him is if he said "Treat immigrants and minorities with respect."

It is in no way “law enforcement” to beat up an American 10th grader and steal and sell his possessions.
This is 10th-grader Arnoldo Bazan.
A citizen.
Immigration agents grabbed him and put him in a chokehold.
"We're from the United States bro!' he screamed.
Agents took and sold his phone
And when he finally got home hours later, his shirt was ripped, he neck had angry, red welts, and he sobbed.

The letter from Bill and Hillary Clinton to James Comer explaining their refusal to testify in his Epstein investigation is really remarkable, not like any letter of this genre I've seen. It's signed by them, not a lawyer, and the arguments are not legal ones. Reprinted from their X account:

A teenage boy was walking home in Minneapolis yesterday when four masked men jumped out of a van & questioned him - with no parent or guardian present.
He was bundled into the van & taken away.
Bystanders heard the boy say: “Can I just go home?”
