“Essentially, child welfare has become the pass-through. The child welfare agency is acting as an agent of the police. There’s no distinction between the two.”
Tens of thousands of new mothers have been flagged to police over unreliable drug tests
The Marshall Project found more than 70,000 cases referred to law enforcement over allegations of substance use during pregnancy—and that’s a significant undercount.

1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken.
Hundreds of kids are still detained.
We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

No one who has seen the Epstein case unfold should have any doubt left about why victims don’t report. When reporting means facing more abuse, more exploitation, and more betrayal at the institutional level, while the perpetrators are the leaders of the very systems of “justice” supposed to help you

Marimar Martinez is a hero.
She was shot 5 times by ICE.
The agent told her to “do something b*tch” before opening fire.
He later bragged “5 shots, 7 holes”.
DHS tried to smear her reputation but video footage vindicated her.
Next week she will testify in Washington about ICE’s brutality.

Women who refuse to submit to male authority, refuse God-given heterosexual relationships, or reject their ‘natural’ roles as reproducers of the nation are seen as the enemy.
This is why, after an ICE agent shot Renee Nicole Good, he lobbed the phrase “fucking bitch” as she was dying.
