There's no way you can keep funding a federal government who's primary mission is to inflict pain on the population. Every federal agency from McMahon at DoE to RFK shredding HHS and everything in between. Every day we let them stay open is more time we'll need to repair the damage they've done
Maher Tarabishi, who has been detained by ICE since October, was the primary caretaker of his disabled adult child, Wael.

On Jan. 23, Wael died from complications related to Pompe disease, a rare genetic condition.

ICE has now denied Maher’s request to attend his funeral, his attorney says.

it is the same playbook everywhere. “vote for us! we will make you great again by punishing the people you hate! do not pay attention to the fact that we’re also shoveling your money into the pockets of the uber wealthy and building a giant boot to step on your face too (preferably forever)”
The UK version of “Project 2025” by the Reform party includes a British ICE, a concentration camp for 24,000 people, mass surveillance and withdrawing from refugee, anti-torture and anti-trafficking conventions.

It’s on their website. That’s how comfortable fascists are in the UK today.

It’s always funny when palantir employees discover that they work at palantir
Palantir employees are pressing company leadership over its work for ICE in internal company Slacks obtained by @wired.com

"In my opinion ICE are the bad guys. I am not proud that the company I enjoy so much working for is part of this."

IMMORAL…

This drawing was made by one of the 5 year old El Gamal twins. It shows children behind bars with the caption, “I’m 5 years old.”

An immigration judge denied them bond, citing “insufficient assets.” These children could remain in detention for years while their case is appealed.

trump wants to kill you. whether it’s an ICE agent shooting you, a cancer drug trial being defunded, increased air pollution, or defunding safe streets funding, the one universal thread in all of their policies is that they think the very idea of making the world a better place is a liberal hoax

Naming someone is not doxxing. They aren’t undercover. They aren’t intelligence agents overseas. This is outrageous - we are supposed to be a free Republic and these people want an authoritarian police state. Lawsuits should be filed & ranking Dems in Congress should act.

If people bothered to interrogate him instead of staring dumbly while he self righteously shouts into a camera saying idiotic things he would probably advertise himself as more of a liability to Trump and Republican leadership.

It's no coincidence that on the same day we learned there are *4,000* ICE and CBP agents in Minneapolis rather than the 3,000 we were told, Trump tells Walz he might be willing to reduce the 4,000 slightly.

He's giving up nothing.

And Bovino getting moved out of state is just an "optics" decision.

Understand this: There are Trump regime concentration camps in America, where innocent people are being killed and tortured and sexually abused—not to mention caged indefinitely—and that includes men, women, and children. These Nazi-style camps are on military bases to keep their activities secret.

I mean even the fucking White House is backtracking (however slightly). If Dems EVER had a moment to get their messaging right... it's now. Executing US citizens and kidnapping children is not law enforcement.

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”

That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

Exactly right.

Bovino's leaving? Great, get Noem to resign.

Noem resigns? Great, defund and dismantle ICE.

Go after Stephen Miller too. Bring charges against ICE thugs at the state and local level. Lawsuits. New state laws restricting them.

Every possible angle.
They are wounded and flailing. Press the advantage.

The Democrats cannot even bring themselves to talk about reducing the ICE budget (which was TRIPLED out of the blue and no one knows how exactly such sums could ever be spent even on the vast network of concentration camps and private contractors) to, say, its already-record 2024 levels.

This can’t be repeated enough. Not only won’t they investigate, they may never even tell us who did this.

I'm just going to keep saying this until I die:

In a white supremacist patriarchy, you have value only insofar as you serve the white supremacist patriarchy.

Kyle Rittenhouse & Ashli Babbitt did. Renee Good & Alex Pretti didn't. On Jan 6, the insurrectionists did. The cops didn't.

Rinse, repeat.
The people who spent years defending and even lionizing Kyle Rittenhouse and Ashli Babbitt now want us to believe that an unarmed mother in her car and a disarmed nurse were domestic terrorists who deserved to be murdered by law enforcement.
