This is dystopian… and not just because they’re dressed like a scene from the handmaids tale.

These are mostly children.

This is where Liam Ramos is being held.

They’re screaming “let us out” and protesting the brutal conditions.

These kids are braver than every ICE thug holding them hostages

So Kyle Rittenhouse, who attended a protest armed with a loaded assault rifle and killed 2 people is a right-wing hero.

But Alex Pretti who had a holstered, permitted handgun, was recording ICE, and tried to help a pepper-sprayed woman deserved to die?

No one is buying this BS.
Kash Patel: "You cannot bring a firearm, loaded, with multiple magazines to any sort of protest that you want. It's that simple. You don't have a right to break the law." (Pretti was carrying a gun legally.)

Secretary Noem has forfeited her right to lead. I’m calling on her to resign.

Gregory Bovino must also be fired.

No one, not an ICE agent, not a federal officer, not a president, is above the law.

> "system crash” deleted nearly two weeks of surveillance footage from inside the facility

that's not how anything works they're lying and destroying evidence hope that helps
And what is happening inside ICE detention centers? 404 Media also learned that the federal government claimed that the day after it was sued for allegedly abusing detainees at an ICE detention center, a “system crash” deleted nearly two weeks of surveillance footage from inside the facility.
ICE Says Critical Evidence In Abuse Case Was Lost In 'System Crash' a Day After It Was Sued
The government also said "we don't have resources" to retain all footage and that plaintiffs could supply "endless hard drives that we could save things to."

ARE PEOPLE ALLOWED TO CARRY OR NOT. ARE WE ALLOWED TO PROTEST OR NOT.

These rights have always been "protected" with a BIG Ol' honkin asterisk depending on who you are.

Memory is a fragile thing in this moment, so it is important to keep in mind that Hakeem Jeffries refused to whip his caucus against ICE funding earlier this week.

If every Democrat voted NO on funding ICE, it would not have passed the House. But, 7 House Democrats voted to fund Trump's lawless, masked goons, so it passed.

Hakeem Jeffries refused to whip his members to vote against ICE funding. Genuinely unforgivable.
NEW: DHS appropriations bill funding ICE passes 220-207

7 Democrats voted YES on the bill:
- Jared Golden
- Marie Gluesenkamp Perez
- Henry Cuellar
- Tom Suozzi
- Laura Gillen
- Don Davis
- Vicente Gonzalez

One Republican voted NO: Thomas Massie

Things I learned in the '21 TX freeze:

- looser clothing keeps you warmer (sweatpants > yoga pants)
- put a sheet OVER your comforter on your bed
- drape a sheet around drafty doors, roll a towel on thresholds
- keep curtains and blinds closed
- use one or two rooms, close up rest of your home
Hi, for those of you unfamiliar with this sort of weather

-if the power goes out, trying to heat your home with the clay pot + candle method is not a great idea, try personal warmth (ie blankets) and blocking and sealing drafty areas instead if you can
Widespread freezing rain and sleet are expected south of the primary snow axis. Significant and damaging ice accumulations are likely, with the potential for long-duration power outages, tree damage, and dangerous travel conditions.

AOC: An agency that is attacking U.S. citizens, kidnapping five-year-olds and using them as bait, and privately circulating the idea that they can violate the rights of Americans by busting down their doors—they deserve to be defunded, and I’ll take any step in that direction.

Important to note which Democrats voted for this.

I get that the entire Republican party is lost to MAGA but the Democratic party can still be systematically replaced by representatives who listen and care about their constituents.

Candidates like @katmabu.bsky.social deserve your attention.

Really interested to hear what the "I didn't vote for this! I was just SO WORRIED about the price of milk and eggs" crowd has to say for themselves right about now.

Never forget and never forgive the people who voted for this tyrant who rapes children.
The president
-Is occupying a major city with armed paramilitiaries
-Is blackmailing treaty allies to hand over their sovereign territory
-Is trying to set himself up as chairman for life of a UN rival with $1B fees for permanent membership
-Is talking about canceling elections
