Trumpists do not believe that people who disagree with them are entitled to a voice in government.

What the congressman reports below is disgusting.
He reveals the utter lack of decency and humanity in the Trump administration, especially in the telling detail at the end.

This is what Kristi Noem said when this incident happened: “What we saw last night in Minneapolis was an attempted murder of federal law enforcement.”

Homeland Security is targeting Americans with this secretive legal weapon Under Trump, the Department of Homeland Security has weaponized administrative subpoenas to attack free speech, according to privacy and civil rights groups.

Gifting this reporting, which is at once frightening, reassuring, infuriating, and comical.

DHS is profligately sending providers like Google “administrative subpoenas” in response to speech they disfavor—in this case, “Jon’s” critical

'Even in Russia, they don't treat children like this': A family's nightmare in ICE detention A Russian couple and their children sought asylum in the U.S. In a Texas detention center, they say they endured worms in the food and hourslong waits for medicine.

This post is really taking off. I know the Thanksgiving detail is grabbing, but I would encourage everyone to also read the full article about this family’s struggle at Dilley.

They’ve been locked up for 130+ days.

I spent hours with them on Zoom this week, and their story deserves to be heard.

On Nov. 16, a mental health counselor recorded in Kamilla’s medical records that her mother reported the girl had lost her appetite after being “served food that contained worms.” A week later, the couple said, children were told to gather in the gym for what they believed would be a Thanksgiving celebration. Excitement spread as families saw tables set with turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, they said. The children waited expectantly. But when a parent asked when the celebration would begin, Oksana said, staff told them the holiday meal was for employees, not detainees. The children, she said, watched despondently as the feast was packed away.

On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.

The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.

But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

For every promise about lowering mortgage rates or targeting private-equity homeowners, there’s a construction tariff — on wood, on steel, on copper, on rebar, roofing, window frames, stoves, sinks, kitchen cabinets and vanities. 🤡

Trump’s Magically Disappearing Stimulus Checks I was promised cheaper groceries and tariff rebates and all I got was this lousy pogrom.

In the past year, Trump has promised...
-$5000 stimulus checks via "DOGE dividend"
-$2000 stimulus checks via "tariff dividend"
-$1000+ checks via "savings" from expiring ACA subsidies

So far, no checks have materialized.

NEW: Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons told Congress today that local law enforcement in Colorado leaked word of a raid, allowing gang members to clear out of apartments.

Those apartments were being cleared out weeks earlier.

Tonight, ICE deleted social media posts with the claim.

The pair have lately been using a luxury 737 MAX jet, with a private cabin in back, for their travel around the country, according to people familiar with the matter. DHS is leasing the plane but is in the process of acquiring it for approximately $70 million. DHS has previously used other planes through the Coast Guard or other agencies for the secretary's use. The purchase would be double the cost of each of seven other commercial planes the department is also buying at the pair's direction to carry out deportations. In official documents, the luxury plane is earmarked for "high-profile deportations," the people said. Staff have jokingly started referring to it as the secretary's "big, beautiful jet," after the bill that provided the funding for it.

The DHS spokeswoman said the plane was used for both deportations and cabinet-level travel. She said it was cheaper than military aircraft for deportations and saved American taxpayers hundreds of millions of dollars. The department rarely uses military flights for deportations because they are instead using chartered planes.

the scuttlebutt about noem and lewandowski’s relationship is fun, but don’t miss that they used OBBA money to lease/buy an expensive private plane that said was for deportations but are instead using to jet around the country

A Pilot Fired Over Kristi Noem’s Missing Blanket and the Constant Chaos Inside DHS Secretary faces fire for confrontational immigration crackdown and self-promotional style; White House to wind down Minnesota operations.

The full story with a gift link (it's such a mess):

In the blanket incident, Noem had to switch planes after a maintenance issue was discovered, but her blanket wasn't moved to the second plane, according to the people familiar with the incident. The Coast Guard pilot was initially fired and told to take a commercial flight home when they reached their destination. They eventually reinstated the pilot because no one else was available to fly them home.

The details of the Kristi Noem blanket incident are just fucking perfect
