More Than 170 U.S. Citizens Have Been Held by Immigration Agents. Theyโ€™ve Been Kicked, Dragged and Detained for Days. The government does not track how often immigration agents grab citizens. So ProPublica did. Our tally โ€” almost certainly incomplete โ€” includes people who were held for days without a lawyer. And near...

โ€œAmericans have been dragged, tackled, beaten, tased and shot by immigration agents. Theyโ€™ve had their necks kneeled on. Theyโ€™ve been held outside in the rain while in their underwear. At least three citizens were pregnant when agents detained them.โ€œ

Chart shows Detention Population, Among Those Arrested by ICE in the Interior, by Criminal Record. The chart shows three lines; Prior conviction, pending criminal charges, and no criminal record. From 2019 through September 2025, the largest group is people with criminal convictions, with much further down people with pending charges. But starting in January, those without criminal records spikes dramatically. In July it crossed pending charges and in the latest data it jumps above criminal convictions.

๐ŸšจNEW: For the first time in history, the single largest group of people arrested in the interior and sent to ICE detention is people with NO criminal record.

As of yesterday's data release, 40%(!) of those arrested in the interior and detained by ICE had no prior conviction or pending charges.

Cracked one of the camera lenses on my beloved Alpine Green iPhone 13 Pro, just switched to a 17 Pro.

OH MY GOD, Liquid Glass is ATROCIOUS.

Spent an hour trying and failing to make it less tacky. If my Mac's about to look like this I'm going to revolt. DO NOT WANT

Hundreds of Alligator Alcatraz detainees drop off the grid after leaving site As of the end of August, the whereabouts of two-thirds of more than 1,800 men detained at Alligator Alcatraz during the month of July could not be determined by the Miami Herald.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers canโ€™t find them and theyโ€™ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

I know I keep going on about this but

1) yes

2) it has DEEPLY embarrassed the media people who kept trying to pretend that this regime can be treated as legitimate, and

3) we absolutely cannot let them forget it

Letโ€™s be clear about what happened to Jimmy Kimmel Trumpโ€™s most brazen attack on free speech yet.

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesnโ€™t like.

The Third Reich didn't last 1,000 years.

Pinochet was ousted with a referendum.

And the US isn't exactly dealing with the smartest, most competent fascists.

Those of you insisting that 2025 is forever need to read a book, touch grass, go to therapy, anything other than trying to make others quit.

Friend at the house today had exactly the same thought I did when she heard about the Washington/Oregon/California/Hawaii West Coast Health Alliance: "New West America".

Love that thought. Love it so, so much.

That was one of the most batshit press conferences of Trump's public life. He brandished a photo of Putin and promised to deploy the US military to occupy Chicago, New York, and San Francisco. A sane country would be moving toward impeachment and removal right now.
