ICE Is Treating Trans Immigrants With A New Level Of Cruelty A HuffPost investigation found how the Trump administration systematically destroyed safeguards for detainees, subjecting them to abuse and neglect.

NEW: It’s difficult to account for the abuses trans immigrants face in ICE custody after Trump destroyed safeguards, oversight agencies, and data about detainees.

But 3 trans migrants told me what it’s really like: Medical neglect. Solitary confinement. Harassment. www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

Something Powerful Is Headed To Minnesota — And It Should Serve As A Major Wakeup Call “Listening to the news from Minnesota, I wondered if anyone recognized the signs.”

My essay @huffpost.com on Violins of Hope. And what they mean today.

Big thanks @noahmichelson.bsky.social

3 yrs ago I started writing a book that is in stores TODAY. It's narrative nonfiction, anti-fascist spy thriller set in Trump era. It's timely as hell & I'm proud of it.

A thread of what people are saying abt it & why I hope you'll help make it a bestseller www.simonandschuster.com/books/To-Cat...

Training material, which HuffPost obtained, shows the multiple ways agents didn’t follow agency rules.

At this point, if you win an award on any major award show and get to make a speech and essentially are given a chance and a platform to say something about what's going on in this country and you don't, that's a problem

I love all things Wheel of Fortune too lol

I love Jeopardy in any form

There is nothing like watching the Grammys to make me feel ancient and completely out of touch with everything

What the serious fuck

Thank you ❤️❤️❤️

The Federal Agents Who Killed Alex Pretti Were Not Placed On Leave “All agents that were involved in that scene are working, not in Minneapolis, but in other locations,” according to Border Patrol chief Gregory Bovino.

The federal immigration agents who killed Alex Pretti have not been placed on leave and are continuing to work www.huffpost.com/entry/agents... via @jessicaschulberg.bsky.social

They Killed Alex Pretti, But They Couldn't Crush Minneapolis After federal agents gunned down a nurse, the city turned its rage into action.

New dispatch, from me:

They killed Alex Pretti, but they couldn't crush Minneapolis www.huffpost.com/entry/minnea...

it's a good time to remind ourselves:

love isn't a get out of jail free card

or

an excuse to look the other way

&

it's never too late to draw a line in the sand

or

stop giving chances to people who refuse to change

It doesn’t matter if Alex Pretti had a gun Nonviolence is a double standard.

ICE, CBP, and Border Patrol have proven themselves incapable of obeying the law, let alone enforcing it for others; unable to self-soothe, let alone keep the peace. Why must ordinary people be asked to stay calm and not upset them? www.theverge.com/policy/86745...

This woman speaks for the majority of Americans. 🙌🙏🫶👇

Dems should introduce lots of such legislation, demand hearings and debate, make a huge fuss, use paid media to call out GOP members who are blocking their consideration--and make clear this GOP Congress is enabling the madness.

People are rolling trash bins down the street toward the federal agents and leaving them in the middle of the street, apparently creating a barricade.

More and more angry residents keep pouring in and are shouting at the federal agents, who have been retaliating with lots of tear gas.

People have been running up to people getting tear-gassed and giving them water to pour in their faces.

It's negative six degrees out here

I'm on site where a federal agent shot a Minneapolis man this morning. It's bad.

Dozens of federal agents are facing off with hundreds of outraged residents. People being tear gassed, helicopters above, I keep hearing pops, and lots of loud BANGS.

This smoke is from tear gas:

ICE Agents Told The Obvious After Renee Good's Killing, Says Source “Not standing in front of vehicles, especially when the driver is still there, is common sense,” one agent told HuffPost.

New: In the days following the killing of Renee Good by ICE agent Jonathan Ross, ICE agents in one local office were called into a meeting. “We were briefed on avoiding standing in front of cars, wherever possible,” one agent present at the meeting told HuffPost.

Trump Admin Issues Concerning New Training Requirements In Internal DHS Memo As anti-ICE protests erupt, the new requirement shows how rapidly the mission is changing at an agency traditionally focused on terrorism, drug smuggling and border security.

Scoop: U.S. Customs and Border Protection is requiring officers to undergo more crowd-control training to square off with demonstrators in cities like Minneapolis.

This will likely result in more officers certified to shoot pepper balls and tear gas canisters.

Minneapolis church has delivered more than 12,000 boxes of groceries to families in hiding DHH church has hundreds of volunteers packing and delivering groceries to families who have been too scared to leave their homes during the immigration operation.

They have quite an operation going.

Trump Falsely Claims Economy Is Great As Grocery Prices Rise And Jobs Picture Gets Worse In a Detroit speech supposedly about the economy, Trump spent the majority of his time on stage repeating his usual lies and grievances about everything else.

NEW — If you watched Trump’s speech purportedly about the economy today, it might explain why they giving him cognitive exams.

I think both of those are excellent — mainstream in many ways but also definitely niche, and also both really unique and would have folks at home excited about them

Omg I love
