A Fatal ICE Shooting Occurred in Texas Months Before Renee Good’s Killing

This case is insane:

ICE shot and killed a citizen last March then *hid it for a year.*

The young man they killed had no criminal history.

All we know about shooting is from internal ICE docs.

We don't know officers' names.

We don't have footage.

"Why aren't reporters asking whether the president has the legal right to launch another Middle Eastern war?"

From my Zeteo piece/newsletter today:

We just want to say thank you to everyone who keeps resisting even when Trumps goal is to wear everyone down. Tonight, workers began restoring the slavery exhibit at the President’s House Site on Philadelphia’s Independence Mall.

👀The federal judges in West Virginia, where ICE has been pulling over and detaining people on the freeway, are literally screaming about ICE's tactics.

"It is an assault on the constitutional order," Judge Goodwin says. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

If this is real and the funds come from taxpayers, that's $29 per American, or $116 for my family of 4. Until and unless my elected representatives appropriate these funds, I'd like my money back.

U.S. Military Moves Into Place for Possible Strikes in Iran

What legal justification has been given? The president cannot legally order a military strike without a declaration of war or *some* legal pretext. And why is this not a central issue in the reporting?

Oh, no, no, I've been through this movie before.

The DHS Death Spiral So many knives in backs and so much tea to spill and so many more knives in backs!

DHS is the bureaucracy that can’t shoot straight… unless there’s an innocent civilian in point-blank range.

Trump’s Stinging Attack on Israel’s President Touches a Nerve

While expressing appreciation for Mr. Trump’s “significant contribution” to Israel’s security, the statement added pointedly, “Israel is a sovereign state governed by the rule of law.”

I suppose we'll see soon enough.

N.J. bans ICE from state property, unveils site to upload videos of agents Gov. Sherrill's executive order requires warrants for ICE access to non-public state areas and allows residents to upload videos documenting federal immigration enforcement.

Remember her name: Aliya Rahman

Her testimony is everything and it deserves to be heard, by everyone. Decide for yourself.

It’s powerful. It’s gut-wrenching. And no one should have to survive what she did.

“Some Republicans are now open to demands by Democrats to stop roving ICE patrols, to require search warrants for immigration enforcement officers and to establish a code of conduct governing use of force.”

I'm not a lawyer. Is there really nothing the local police can do when federal agents violate the rights of one of their residents? Can't a federal agent violate state law?

Add Rand Paul to the list of people I have long disagreed with saying sensible and helpful things. Important in the current climate. Bill Kristol is also on the list.

US to send ICE agents to Winter Olympics, prompting Italian anger The US federal agency says it will not play an immigration role at February's event in Milan-Cortina.

The proposal to send ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) to a foreign country makes it pretty clear that ICE is not about immigration. I hope Italy does not allow them into their country. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Woman on the right was using her walker to advance into the tear gas

Let us all have the courage displayed by the residents of Minneapolis.

Too obvious a point even to make, perhaps. But there was no “unrest” in Minneapolis before ICE and CBP showed up. ICE and CBP are the cause of the chaos…and the killings.

Get them out of there.

If only the Democratic leaders in the house and senate were woke like Bill Kristol.

We are still mourning Charlie
