Homeland Security is targeting Americans with this secretive legal weapon Under Trump, the Department of Homeland Security has weaponized administrative subpoenasΒ to attack free speech, according to privacy and civil rights groups.

Homeland Security is targeting Americans who criticize it with unfounded investigations fueled by judicially-unsupervised administrative subpoenas.

This article tells the story of our client who was so targeted.

Washington Post Raid Is a Frightening Reminder: Turn Off Your Phone’s Biometrics Now The search warrant to raid a Washington Post reporter’s home shows how authorities can open your phone without your consent.

I am begging y’all to turn off Face ID and fingerprint approval on your devices. If you’re a US citizen, cops & ICE & CBP can’t make you tell them your password but they can hold your phone in front of your face or stick it on your thumb to unlock it.

Liam, 5, has been freed, but four other students from his school district remain detained in Texas. Two boys from his elementary school were taken Thurs

β€œThis isn’t something we are prepared or trained for. We’ve dedicated our lives to protecting + educating children,” school superintendent told me

ICE reportedly close to buying San Antonio warehouse to turn into new detention center Bexar County Commissioner Tommy Calvert said he's ready to fight the plan and urged San Antonio officials to deny a zoning request for the facility.

ICE is trying to buy a warehouse in my hometown to cage thousands of human beings. The city of San Antonio & Bexar County can block this from happening. I implore all the San Antonians I know to flood their elected officials with messages of opposition. www.sacurrent.com/news/san-ant...

Judge Biery signed the order with a photo of Liam and two bible verses: The first is "But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven." The second is simply "Jesus wept."

Astonishing thing for a judge to do.

Sworn court testimony reveals conditions at hastily assembled Alligator Alcatraz Former detainees also shared stories of β€œabuse” and being forced to sign deportation papers.

"They did not remove my handcuffs for meals, so it was very difficult to eat. They restricted access to my medications."

We're in court challenging the inhumane and unconstitutional conditions that our clients experienced when they were detained at Alligator Alcatraz.

Yes, this friendly 2019 Jeffrey Epstein email exchange is about the owner of the Patriots, Robert Kraft. But it's more important who it is WITH: Brad Karp, the chairman of Paul, Weiss. And Karp was still chairman when Paul, Weiss became the first law firm to cave to Trump's demands in 2025. 1/

β€˜Mommy, why don’t you pick us up?’: Mother of Liam Conejo Ramos shares her story from hiding Liam and his father are currently being held by federal authorities in the South Texas Family Residential Center in Dilley, an hour plus drive southwest of San Antonio.

In an interview with MPR News, Liam's mother gave an update on her son and her own safety. She said Liam asks again and again, β€œMommy, why don’t you pick us up?” Or β€œMommy, we don’t want to be here anymore. This place is ugly.”

This is Literally the Job Political journalists need to stop pretending they don't know what Republicans are going to do.

One year into Trump’s second term, some journalists have been β€œsurprised” by the administration’s organized agenda. But Project 2025 was publicly available. Advocacy groups read it and warned us. The press read it and… πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ www.readtpa.com/p/this-is-li...

Protest breaks out at Dilley immigration detention facility holding 5-year-old Liam Ramos A protest broke out Saturday at the ICE-run South Texas family detention complex in Dilley, where five-year-old Liam Ramos is being detained.

On Saturday January 24, children and mothers locked in cages at the for-profit ICE family concentration camp in Dilley, Texas, chanted "Libertad," protesting on behalf of fellow political prisoner, 5-year-old Liam Ramos, used by ICE as "bait" earlier this week to arrest his father in Minneapolis.

Last night, we filed an emergency motion to lift the appeals court pause on the injunction that imposed limits on federal agents' interactions with observers and protesters. Minnesotans must be safe to exercise their constitutional rights.
