The fact that the White House is talking about "de-escalation" means nothing if its orders to ICE haven’t changed. And even if those orders *do* change, these systems now have a logic of their own.

This morning, federal agents staged at the Powderhorn Park Recreation Center lot and began to throw chemical irritants at observers. They also kidnapped an observer. Our parks are meant for our children, youth, and neighbors. They should never be militarized zones meant to separate families. 1/

"In order to build tyranny, you have to open zones where the law doesn't apply... one zone like that is the border. The logic of what they've been doing with ICE is to take the border everywhere."

So important. What they say is not the story. That is never the story. What happened is the story. Write what happened.

I’m one of the ProPublica reporters who has been documenting the aggressive tactics federal agents are using against immigrants & U.S. citizens

Donald Trump's unprecedented data grab is central to a broader strategy of voter suppression, election subversion, and litigation designed to undermine free and fair elections in 2026 and beyond. This is the biggest fight for free and fair elections we have faced in years.
