You Can't Refuse To Be Scanned by ICE's Facial Recognition App, DHS Document Says Photos captured by Mobile Fortify will be stored for 15 years, regardless of immigration or citizenship status, the document says.

ICE does not let people decline to be scanned by its new facial recognition app, which the agency uses to verify a personโ€™s identity and their immigration status. Any face photos taken by Mobile Fortify will be stored for 15 years, including those of U.S. citizens.

Already over 600,000 have died due to cuts to USAID. Over 400,000 of them were children.

The Case for the Forever Shutdown Senate Democrats actually allowing the GOP to stop funding the government is only the first step. Now they have to make the case that Trumpโ€™s government is illegitimate.

The United States now has an immigration enforcement apparatus that, if it were its own national military, would be the thirteenth-most-heavily funded military in the world. And the president of the U.S. wants to turn that heavily funded, extramilitary against you. trib.al/j6h0dad

I have degrees in law and public health. Both would be rescinded if I suggested fabricating evidence to โ€œproveโ€ a pre-determined outcome.

I like Jimmy Kimmel. I really do. I have no issues with him.

I'm talking about something very different.

Kimmel was only suspended. But he's back now. Karen Attiah and all the other Black journalists are still fired.

Y'all do know how to fight, when you want to.

But you don't really want to. ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿฟโ€โ™‚๏ธ

โ€œHeโ€™s going to cancel the elections.โ€ Last night, I ate with an Italian, Spaniard, Qatari, Uzbek, and Indian.

Today the Big Balls Goon Squad snatched people off the DC streets
* In front of a library
* Off a public bus
* At traffic stops
* After causing a car crash

This has to stop

I love our city and its residents. All of DCers would have welcomed serious intervention where crime is problematic. But troops are deployed where crime is not and where thriving business and Latinos are. As a result, our economy is decimated and our people, terrorized.

It isn't until the 26th paragraph that there is mention that what Trump is doing is being challenged as illegal. And it accepts Trump's stated rationale to act.

Here is what I think: Trump is illegally deploying the military in blue cities to set the stage to interfere with the 2026 elections.
