Seconded
This cannot be something a civilian law enforcement agent is allowed to wear in the US — and an agency that has a culture that tolerates this cannot be saved.
Fucking surreal that people dressed like this and carrying assault rifles are permitted to kidnap people off our streets

The president of the United States had his DOJ raid the Fulton County election office and seized ballots. This is clearly a dry run for 2026. Yet, this is treated by too many in legacy media as normal.

ICE prison contractors stand to make 11,000% profit on money they invested in the GOP.

They're profiteering from racism, terrorism, and cruelty.

Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump.

Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.

Reminder: If the Supreme Court upholds Trump’s attack on birthright citizenship, some of the ICE officers currently brutalizing Minnesotans may be reassigned to apprehend newborns from the hospital for immediate deportation. Just read the Trump administration’s own memo. slate.com/news-and-pol...

Every Stephen Miller tantrum and DHS recruitment ad speaks in these existential terms about "defending your culture" to elide the fact that they need people with the courage to wear a mask while interrogating a sixth grader

ICE are abducting 5 year olds, using them as bait to get to their family, and shipping them to a Texas concentration camp all in a single day.

We need a Nuremberg for everyone involved. Abolish ICE isn't enough.

Fukuyama emphasizes, correctly imho, that Trump is singularly a bully and needs to be put in his place.

Europe should escalate, call his bluff, and meaningfully threaten to shame him publicly. Drag it out and make him want to run away from it. Anything other than hostility is wasted on this beast.

NEW EPISODE: One year into Donald Trump’s second term, I discuss the collapse of democratic guardrails as big law firms, legacy media, corporate elites, and government institutions capitulate, collaborate, or stay silent while democracy is under sustained attack.

Her mother called 911 for help… and got turned into ICE instead.

They placed her and her five year old daughter in a hotel and told them not to contact anyone.

ICE didn’t want the community fighting for them.

Mother & daughter have been deported to Honduras and the local police were complicit.

Again…never trust what ICE says. They’re proven liars…especially when it comes to shooting people or outright killing them.
911 call after Minneapolis ICE shooting differs from DHS’s account of incident. "The video captures tense moments inside the home as a woman speaks with a 911 dispatcher. ....She claims... [when her husband] ran inside, agents shot through the door, hitting him in the leg." kstp.com/kstp-news/to...
Neighbors, DHS share conflicting stories on federal agent shooting in north Minneapolis
A Facebook Live video shared by Minnesota State Sen. Erin Maye Quade is now offering new insight into what may have happened moments before the shooting.

TAPPER: You called Renee Good a "domestic terrorist." Why did you not wait for an investigation?

NOEM: Everything I've said has been proven to be factual and the truth. This administration wants to operate in transparency.

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.

I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.
