ICE took their papers—and won’t give them back Immigrants are being released from detention without documents proving their status.

This administration does so many rotten things. And even by those gutter standards, this is profoundly effed up.

WHISTLEBLOWER: Kash’s personal use of the FBI jet delayed investigators after the Brown U Mass shooting

And, if anyone has information about Trump’s businesses, I remain very interested in hearing it!

If you are a reporter on this beat, please consider me a source—I’m always happy to talk about Trump’s business entanglements.

(Weird affliction, I know.)

After reporting almost exclusively on Trump’s businesses interests for the last decade, I’ve reached a conclusion:

The conflicts are massive and they need to be stopped.

Some personal news—

I’ve joined @publiccitizen.bsky.social.

As research director.

Of its Trump accountability project.

When you have a police force being trained to ignore the Constitution and then being unleashed upon the American public, EVERYONE is at risk!

Rep. Garcia: The Trump administration is trying to strip Fourth Amendment rights. ICE wants to write its own “permission slip” to break down doors without a judge. Those spreading violence and chaos are the same ones ignoring the Constitution.

This is big news! SB 6239 appears to be dead.

Credit to Washington House Dems for hearing loud and clear that balancing the budget on the backs of survivors wasn’t acceptable.

And shout out to everyone who pushed this into the spotlight. This is what people power looks like.

Sewickley father detained by ICE as 6-year-old daughter begins cancer treatment His arrest came just two days before his 6-year-old daughter, Maria, began treatment for Hodgkin's lymphoma.

ICE abducted a father of a six-year-old who is undergoing cancer treatment in a suburb outside Pittsburgh on Sunday and took him to a detention center in West Virginia.

The cruelty is boundless.

WHISTLEBLOWER: ICE cut almost half it's training program, specifically the parts about the Constitution, the US legal system, use of force, proper arrest and detention, and WEAPONS TRAINING.

THAT is why US citizens are being murdered and agents are dropping their guns.

Trump accuses Supreme Court justices of disloyalty for declaring his tariffs illegal “They’re very unpatriotic and disloyal to our Constitution."

In a dangerous outburst against SCOTUS, Trump said he was “ashamed of certain members of the court…for not having the courage to” uphold most of the global tariffs he imposed last year.

The remarks are the latest from the president in his ongoing assault on the federal judiciary.

I’m sure they would’ve had him in there even if he wasn’t FBI Director - since they are his “friends.”

He did it for us. Because he loves America.

60% disapprove of Trump ahead of State of the Union, Post-ABC-Ipsos poll finds But Democrats have made little headway in persuading Americans that they have better ideas or policies to offer.

📉 NEW WaPo poll: Mass disapproval of Trump ahead of state of the union

Who could’ve possibly anticipated it would be a clown show?

The reason we're here is that tens of millions of people will punch a hole in a wall if they hear someone used food stamps to buy soda but they're fine if the right-wing podcaster turned fbi director uses his taxpayer funded private jet to go party whenever he feels like it bsky.app/profile/thed...

"Somebody should ask the tens of millions of dollars that were wasted on personal junkets by prior FBI directors before lecturing me on a budget for the Federal Bureau of Investigation."

3 million pages of evidence of a massive child sex trafficking ring in the US and this is how the FBI director is spending his time.

There’s ALWAYS a video post etc. it’s only okay for THEM. I passionately hate them all

Remember when he was preparing to buy Twitter and many of us were saying, but what about the racism?, and most people were indignantly insisting, "he's not racist!"

Just like with Trump. And now here we are.

But Pedos are still running the Whitehouse.

Nope, looks like they haven't been "promptly" brought before a judge for an initial appearance. But perhaps the apparently megalomaniac police chief is acting with impunity and feels that he need not comply with basic Constitutional law because . . . what? he can't prove the kids committed a crime?

Hard to imagine these detentions occurring without the "informal" blessings of a judge.

This is nuts. Chief of police just flat out started a mini riot with kids and ended up getting his dumb ass whipped bloody. ACAB means every last one.

Multiple petitions and are calling for Quakertown Police Chief Scott McElree to resign.

@governor.pa.gov WTF, dude...send the State Police to release these children from this fascist sheriff!

Quakertown student protesters likely detained until Monday. Here's why Parents of Quakertown high school students arrested in the ICE protest melee say their kids won't see a judge until Monday. What the law says.

Pa. high school students are *still in custody* after being *arrested* during Friday anti-ICE walkout www.phillyburbs.com/story/news/l...

Horrifyingly familiar. It is clear to me now that being soulless & cruel is, for millions of people, their default factory setting. Only imposing strong laws, unbending norms, & personal consequences will hold their worse impulses in check.

And then we risk becoming monsters ourselves.
