Houston City Council meeting turns raucous as protesters shut out from speaking Fueled by outrage over a fatal shooting of a U.S. citizen, dozens of people packed Houston City Hall chambers to protest Houston's cooperation with ICE.

Dozens of people signed up to speak about Houston police’s work with ICE at Tuesday's city council meeting.

Many of these people were unable to speak about the city's dangerous collaboration β€” even though the city had hours more to hear them out.

This is not what democracy looks like. Full stop.

I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work.

I don’t let bullies win.

Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.

What Happens After a Child Is Taken Into ICE Custody? Five-year-old Liam Ramos' detention by ICE has sparked questions about the policies underlying the agency's deportation operations.

ICE has detained at least 3,800 kids under the second Trump administration β€” more than 500 of whom were under 5 years old.

Children shouldn't be locked up by our government.

Minneapolis, MN -

Many many more agents filing into the area around the hotel. Minneapolis PD announcing everyone is under arrest, telling them to sit down with their hands up. An ad hoc journalist squad being told to go further down the street. Chemicals irritant deployed in the road.

Lies, violence and the American state Trump abhors democracy because it allows ordinary Americans to reject his lies. Even worse for Trump, it allows us to reject him.

Something has changed in recent weeks. The lies are no longer about shadowy figures wielding great power and influence. They are now targeting everyday citizens β€” people standing in their own communities, in front of their homes, protecting their neighbors. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/lies...

That's BS, Secretary Collins, and you know it. This happened because some fake, wannabe soldiers marched down the street looking to intimidate and rough up people. If you can't stand up for your employees who serve us veterans, resign.
