I keep hearing the same argument from MAGA:
"What about all the citizens murdered by illegals".
Then get a warrant and go arrest them!
Don't patrol the streets terrorizing everyone, arresting children at schools and US citizens because you don't know who to arrest. See the difference?

I don't think people understand that if you shut down the government, ICE and CBP do NOT shut down. They're funded by supplemental money from the BBB. That's why dems are separating the DHS funding bill and asking for restrictions. I want them to demand a rescission of that funding or shut DHS down

As far as I know, Tom Suozzi here still does not have a primary challenger in his district (NY-3 on Long Island).
The filing deadline is April 6 for the primary on June 23, and if there's a remotely progressive town council member or PTA president in that district, this is the time to make a move.

The ICE budget has a bonus pool so large it would amount to $42,000 for every single employee www.tiktok.com/t/ZThyjC6ao/
ICE’s projected 2026 budget is so large that it would rank among the top 15 military budgets in the world if it were its own national armed force.

Reports indicate that ICE is withdrawing from Minnesota. Insiders tell us the agency was forced to retreat after Gregory Bovino was carried away by a small hawk that mistook him for a chihuahua.

This is one of the things that I find is most shocking to people outside Minnesota who don’t realize it yet—the scale at which everyone who isn’t white has been forced into a spectrum of hiding.
Very good article drawing out the Tahrir Square comparison.

Americans will follow laws to protect inanimate objects without beating hearts, feelings or families,
while federal agents execute them for existing in a public space with impunity.

The altnps account is the 13th most followed account on Bluesky and has more followers than every single news outlet other than the NYT, NPR and Meidas Touch on here. They actively spread misinformation and exploit gullible old people for cash. Accounts this unethical do not deserve to exist.
Completely insane. AltNPS claimed to know the name of Alex Pretti's killer, refused to say it because "the truth always comes out," and then just deleted the post.
A man was executed on the street in my hometown, and AltNPS is using that as an excuse to vaguepost for attention.
