It’s terrifying to think about, but I can’t help but get the impression they’re building to this sort of thing. Why else would they be trying so hard to get voter roll info?!
Jan 6 showed us it is a cult .. Wait until he tells his cult it’s Open season on democrats… because I feel like it’s coming. 😔😧😑

As we all learned in school, a bill becomes a law when the People’s Republic of China sends it to the U.S. President and he signs it.

This administration and anyone who supports this are evil and should never be in positions of power. Abolish ICE and impeach this whole MAGA terrorist organization
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.

After being held in two of them as a boy, I fought for decades urging America to never again build concentration camps and put human beings in them. It breaks my heart to watch this happen twice now in my own lifetime.

Auschwitz was liberated 81 years ago today. Last year I published a story about the remaining survivors, fewer each year, and the importance of telling and retelling their stories. I hope you'll read it if you haven't. Here's a gift link. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/06/m...

Ian Austin, an Army veteran, was arrested for protesting ICE in Minneapolis. But he’s continued protesting. Senior reporter @julialurie.bsky.social spoke to him.

“When they say, ‘Why would you be out here?’ How the fuck could I not be out here?” he says. “My nation is under attack."

On Holocaust Remembrance Day, we honor the victims and survivors and confront the devastating cost of hatred. Remembrance carries responsibility: to speak out against antisemitism in all its forms.

I’m glad that more people are starting to give a shit about what this admin is doing to our country. I’m just sad that it has taken murder to make some people care. The whole thing should have ended when Trump made fun of the reporter with cerebral palsy in 2015.
New: Just how furious are Americans about ICE? Sewing influencers, bourbon vloggers and the mod of r/catbongos are all taking a political stand. "I refuse to wake up in five or 10 years and look at myself in the mirror and say, ‘You had a platform and did nothing,'" a golf YouTuber told me
Outrage over ICE has spilled into typically apolitical online spaces
Fury over Alex Pretti’s killing has flooded the internet’s most apolitical venues, reflecting a growing outrage over the Trump administration’s crackdown.

Well, you can all thank the Trump administration for effectively cancelling the potential cancer cures that were being worked on. Congrats.
Moderna have announced that they won't run new phase three trials now with massive impacts for new vaccine development- why- its because of RFK Jr and his anti-vaccine campaigns and cancelling mRNA vaccine research which affect the sales the company can then make 🧪🧵 #PublicHealth

The monks are still walking.

It's day 91 of their 2,300-mile Walk for Peace from Texas to D.C.

They're now moving through North Carolina, having passed through Raleigh, Wake Forest, and Warrenton.

Godspeed to them. 🙏 💙

Please do not let it happen in the UK as well. This shit can not be allowed anywhere in the world.
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.
