Ending this operation is not enough.

We need justice and accountability. That starts with independent investigations into the murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, economic restitution for businesses impacted, abolishing ICE, and the impeachment of Kristi Noem.

Idaho families sue over immigration raid that swept up hundreds, including U.S. citizens โ€” NBC News About 400 people, including children and U.S. citizens, were detained for four hours while they were denied food and water in the raid, according to the lawsuit.

More than 400 people, including hundreds of citizens, were โ€œsortedโ€ at gun point into racial and ethnic groups by 200 ICE agents who fired flash-bang grenades into cars with people inside, pointed guns at children & demanded their zip tied parents not comfort them. apple.news/Ausdx6kWtT0e...

Crockett: "The US is falling apart, partially bc he's allowing for killings in the street, but also bc we have a 34 count convicted felon being shielded from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."

Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century.

He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. Heโ€™s referenced 38,000 times.

A publisher who lays off a reporter whose pen is freezing because she's covering a frigid war zone while dodging missiles is not an editor you want to work for, in a more perfect world

Remember her name: Aliya Rahman

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

Itโ€™s powerful. Itโ€™s gut-wrenching. And no one should have to survive what she did.

Foreign countries are bribing our president to sell out the American people.

Trump family businesses made $187 MILLION from this deal, and just months later he gave the UAE some of our most top-secret AI tech.

They are selling our national security to the highest bidder.

Thereโ€™s no justification for shooting someone ten times in the back.

Thereโ€™s no justification for shooting someone ten times in the back.

The debate about what Alex Pretti did or didnโ€™t do is irrelevant.

The agents committed murder.

It wasnโ€™t a โ€œbad shootโ€. It was a killing

the federal government is arresting journalists not only without a warrant but after being explicitly denied a warrant

i wonder what our freedom of speech warriors like Matt Taibbi and Bari Weiss have to say about this

This isnโ€™t about convicting Don Lemon. Itโ€™s unlikely that will happen. Itโ€™s about intimidating journalists & making them censure themselves out of fear of consequences. Itโ€™s about eroding the free press because the administration canโ€™t afford the criticism.

We did not properly punish the confederates. We did not properly punish the insurrectionists on January 6th. We have to punish ICE.

They canโ€™t be allowed to slink back into their communities quietly. Expose them. Arrest them. Convict them. Imprison them.

A president who combines hostility with intellectual emptiness isnโ€™t just controversial...heโ€™s structurally dangerous. Itโ€™s hard to tell which is more alarming: the policies or the lack of comprehension behind them.

A reminder to the news media: โ€œconflicting accountsโ€ is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

Disabled son of ICE detainee dies after 30 days of hospitalization It had been months since Wael Tarabishi seen his father. The family is calling on ICE to release Maher Tarabishi so he may attend his son's funeral.

In October, ICE grabbed Maher Tarabishi.

He was a 24/7 caregiver for his disabled son Wael.

At the time of Maherโ€™s detention, disability advocates warned that taking away Waelโ€™s caregiver put his life at risk.

Wael died on Friday at age 30.

ICE caused his death.

They didnโ€™t get to say goodbye.

F.B.I. Agent Who Tried to Investigate ICE Officer in Shooting Resigns

Breaking NYT:

The FBI agent who sought to investigate the federal immigration officer who fatally shot Renee Good has resigned from the bureau, according to two people familiar with the matter, after leadership pressured her to discontinue a civil rights inquiry into the officer.

Deporting children with cancer.
Using a 5-year-old as bait.
Shooting moms.

ICE is beyond reform. And today the House is voting to bankroll more terror. Hell no.

Jack Smith testifying will be satisfying on one level, but primarily it will be deeply frustrating. Trump should have been prosecuted for J6, should not be President. I think this is mostly on Merrick Garland, who will go down in history for his failure.

From Senator Chris McDaniel: โ€œLately, some folks have taken to calling ICE โ€œthe Gestapo.โ€  It sounds fierce.  It feels righteous.  But it isnโ€™t true, and it isnโ€™t harmless.

The Gestapo was a secret police force.  No warrants.  No courts.  No lawyers.  And no appeals.  People vanished in the night, not because they broke the law, but because the law no longer meant anything.  The knock on the door was the sentence.

ICE isnโ€™t that.  Not even close.

ICE is a public agency enforcing laws passed by elected officials.  Its agents file reports.  They seek warrants.  They lose cases.  Judges stop them.  Lawyers challenge them.  Some detainees go home.  Thatโ€™s not tyranny.  Thatโ€™s bureaucracy, for better and worse.

You can hate immigration policy.  You can argue enforcement is too harsh, too sloppy, or too broad.  You can work to have the law changed if you wish.  Thatโ€™s a republic doing what itโ€™s supposed to do.  

But when you call ordinary law enforcement โ€œthe Gestapo,โ€ you cheapen real evil.  You turn history into a slogan and suffering into a metaphor.  And once every badge is tyranny, no tyranny is left to recognize.

In Mississippi, I was raised to believe words should earn their weight.  This one hasn't yet.  It throws around the language of dictatorship while living under a system where courts still rule, lawyers still argue, and the government still loses.

That difference matters.

Because the day enforcement becomes secret, unchecked, and answerable to no one, we wonโ€™t need to borrow names from history.  Weโ€™ll know exactly what weโ€™re dealing with.

And weโ€™ll wish weโ€™d kept our words honest.โ€
