People should be required to experience ICE's illegal brutalities before being able to claim that they support ICE and their methods.

We can expect no honesty, no decency, and no humanity from this Presidential administration. It will be like this until the microsecond he leaves.

Congress has the power to subpoena witnesses, hold public hearings, and establish an independent commission to review the Epstein files.

What remains unclear is whether lawmakers have the political will to use those tools.

It's constitutionally impossible to nationalize US elections because that would mean the federal government would have direct control of state run elections now Imagine if the president got to choose your senators or representative?

Minneapolis police chief warns officers: Stop unlawful force by ICE or lose your job Chief Brian O’Hara says he’ll fire city police officers if they don’t intervene when immigration agents use unlawful force.

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara told his officers that they have a duty to intervene if they see ICE committing crimes and will be fired if they don't. We need a lot more of this.

β€œHe remembers ICE agents pulling him from a friend’s car outside a St. Paul shopping center and throwing him to the ground, handcuffing him, then punching him & striking his head with a steel baton.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) β€” Alberto CastaΓ±eda MondragΓ³n says his memory was so jumbled after a beating by immigration officers that he initially could not remember he had a daughter and still struggles to recall treasured moments like the night he taught her to dance.

But the violence he endured last month in Minnesota while being detained is seared into his battered brain.

He remembers Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents pulling him from a friend’s car on Jan. 8 outside a St. Paul shopping center and throwing him to the ground, handcuffing him, then punching him and striking his head with a steel baton. He remembers being dragged into an SUV and taken to a detention facility, where he said he was beaten again.

He also remembers the emergency room and the intense pain from eight skull fractures and five life-threatening brain hemorrhages.

ICE told nurses this Minneapolis man β€œpurposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall.”

What actually happened is that they pulled him from a car, beat him so viciously with a steel baton that he had 8 skull fractures, 5 life-threatening brain hemorrhages, and couldn’t remember he had a daughter.

Listen, people: We cannot have secret police in the U.S.

Masks are intended to stifle any accountability by ICE/CBP operatives.

It is indefensible in a functional democracy.

Period. Full stop.

Federal judge rules DOJ can β€˜no longer’ be trusted in voter roll crusade The judge pointed to a letter from Bondi to Minnesota that tied federal immigration enforcement to demands for voter data as the smoking gun.

A federal judge in Oregon issued a sweeping rebuke of the Justice Department’s nationwide push to seize state voter rolls, ruling that the department can no longer be presumed to be acting in good faith and warning that its conduct threatens voters and states’ rights.

ICE exists to enforce CIVIL immigration law, not CRIMINAL law of any kind. Ergo, there is no legal justification for them:

* to be armed.
* to be masked.
* to kidnap anyone they want when they require judicial warrants to make CIVIL arrests.
* to provide security for the Vice President, ever.

Today is a great example as to why-

Trump sends ANOTHER racist post

NOT ONE DEM PRESS CONFERENCE

Dems should be forming a BLUE WALL and saying NO MATTER WHAT maga bills go up- we WILL NOT VOTE FOR THEM until they impeach Trump

That's how the minority takes power

Funny how Clinton is out in the open talking, while Trump is nowhere to be seen. That contrast says a lot about who might be guilty.
