NEW: ICE has a plan to lease offices across the US as part of a secret, months-long expansion campaign.
Today, @wired.com is publishing dozens of those locations. Many are near schools, medical offices, and places of worship.
Vital work from @leahfeiger.bsky.social that I'm proud to publish.
Ring is a wildly dangerous company. Always has been. But it has sort of flown under the radar the last couple years as it tried to soften its image. Make no mistake that this is an extremely dangerous surveillance dragnet:

Rufo βοΈ @christopherrufo Β· 3h The problem with the annual conservative outrage cycle over the Super Bowl halftime show is that it has no impact on the NFL and makes conservatives look weak and left behind. Kid Rock does not change this calculusβhe reinforces it. The ghettoization of conservative culture. Christopher F. Rufo βοΈ @christopherrufo I'm a right-winger, I love country music, but c'mon, Kid Rock did not "mog" Bad Bunny. This wasn't a "stunning culture war victory." Advertisers are not going to "flock away from the Super Bowl." Conservatives have started lying to themselves and to their audiencesβnot good.
Chris Rufo doesn't have a career outside of being a "culture warrior." This is his movement. He made his bed. Now he gets to lie in it.
