Inside ICEβs Surveillance Tool Kit
Thanks for this segment, @velshi.com! Please also bring into the story the infrastructure that supports these tools. Nothing explains the proliferation of hyperscale data centers better than the expansion of the surveillance state and the economics of the cruelty industry.

A reminder that ICE hasnβt slowed down in Minneapolis at all.
Outside of Minnesota, it might feel like everything has changed since Alex Prettiβs murder. But ICE hasnβt actually lost any power and theyβre continuing to terrorize our communities.

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 Maherβs detention, disability advocates warned that taking away Waelβs caregiver put his life at risk.
Wael died on Friday at age 30.
ICE caused his death.
They didnβt get to say goodbye.

Itβs worse than it looks in Minneapolis
But locals are organizing to keep each other safe from ICE agents.
key detail most US media isn't reporting:
"No one β certainly not the ICE agents themselves β is even really bothering with the pretext that theyβre here to make the city safer. This is Donald Trumpβs revenge campaign, and theyβre the foot soldiers."

Tom Homan was investigated for accepting $50,000 from undercover FBI agents. Trump's DOJ shut it down.
The FBI and Justice officials closed the investigation, which a Justice Department appointee had called a βdeep stateβ probe in early 2025.
This is the Trump thug who wants to deny due process rights to everyone else. Turns out he was being investigated for taking $50k cash in an illegal scheme, but Trumpβs DOJ dropped it.
This double standard and corruption is infecting our justice system.

Trump wants to stomp out dissent but we refuse to be silent. We must use our economic power to pressure ABC/Disney.
