Just want to thank all the 911 panicked politicians- Republican and Democrat, for giving us to ICE and CPB by insisting on RealID.
You promised to uphold the Constitution and you did it anyway. And now Trump's militia can identify any peaceful law abiding citizen against their will.

As ICE continues to acquire more warehouses, it's a good time for a refresher on how the Nazi camp system developed.
" Keep in mind that the US is currently holding more than twice as many people as there were detainees in the Nazi concentration camp system in 1939, 6 years into the Third Reich."

ICE tear gassed a bunch of children on Saturday. This was a massive escalation of force. They were shooting tear gas at the back of the crowd, it took these unmasked people maybe 3-5 minutes in the cloud of tear gas to escape in without trampling. www.theverge.com/policy/87278...

Unspeakably grotesque.
DHS said that the woman CBP shot in the chest in Portland was “involved” in a gang shooting.
Her ~involvement~ was that suspected gang members sexually assaulted and robbed her.
Her ~involvement~ was that suspected gang members sexually assaulted and robbed her.
After Border Patrol shot two people in Portland, DHS claimed they were "vicious gang members" tied to a past shooting.
But records I obtained reveal a US prosecutor has since directly contradicted DHS, saying, "We're not suggesting he is a gang member." My dive into how DHS' claims have collapsed:
