Cato Institute just nuked the lie. Immigrants have cut U.S. deficits by $14.5 TRILLION since 1994, slashing the national debt by a third.

All that β€œimmigrants are bleeding us dry” noise? Absolute bullshit.

ICE says a handcuffed man w/ no criminal record got 8 skull fractures running into a wall.

Doctors disagree.

Hospitals encrypt messages; patients fear getting care.

HOSPITALS ARE NOT SAFE

Call Senators.

Demand investigations.

Stop funding this.

Keep protesting and filming ICE. ✊🏼

@utoronto.ca I saw that @uwaterloo.ca lowered its flags in honour of @KirstyDuncanPhD, our former minister of science. Perhaps U of T has already but I missed it. Please show us how you have honoured one of our extraordinary faculty members. #AcademicSky

The ICCIT and UTM as a whole will be closed today (Monday, January 26) due to significant snowfall. Stay safe! β˜ƒοΈ

Please re-consider the decision to open at noon. It will take the community hours to get to and from the university. As well, parents will be scrambling for childcare. It is a stunning decision after a record breaking snowfall and very cold temperatures. It is a revealing decision though - sadly.

Read their names.
Nine people have died in ICE custody or during ICE operations in 2026.
Every one of them mattered.

Call Congress. ICE should NOT be funded.

Teen dies of cancer days after mother arrested by ICE: β€˜She’s never gonna see him’ The mother's family pleaded with federal officers for her release from custody to say her final goodbyes to her son, but their requests went unanswered.

ICE detained Arlit Maria Martinez on her way to work. 2 days later, her 15 yo son died of cancer. They wouldn't let her out to say goodbye. The family had planned to move back to Mexico prior to the cancer diagnosis but stayed for his treatment. Now, Mr Martinez has lost his wife to ICE & his son.

South Park called it, and it’s hilarious.

One of the creators purchased the Trump Kennedy Center URL address before the name was even changed because they know Trump’s narcissism is in the driver’s seat.
