AP: “A U.S. Senate investigation report released by @ossoff.senate.gov has uncovered dozens of credible reports of medical neglect and poor conditions in immigration detention centers nationwide…” apnews.com/article/immi...

Same. I'm no longer getting the pushback though and the crazy looks. Sigh.

More than 170 US citizens have been held by immigration agents ProPublica uncovered that Americans have been kicked, dragged, and detained for days.

ICE has beaten, detained & arrested 170 citizens, at least 3 of whom were pregnant

George Retes is a US veteran who was held in solitary for 3 days

Kristi Noem says it’s not happening, but @motherjones.com has done the reporting

If they treat citizens this way, imagine what they do to immigrants

I'm glad Obama reached out, and is supporting him but Mamdani does not need established Dems to be a "sounding board", telling him to stop being so progressive. If anything progressives like Mamdani should be sounding boards for the established Dems that can't get out of their own way. 😒

🚨Stamford, CT: ICE and “FBI” agents use grossly excessive force to brutalize someone in a parking garage. The woman who spoke up was 1) ALONE and 2) brave. When are men going to step up? Just gonna watch the beatdowns like free PPV at the expense of innocents? 1/2

Amazon just announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year.

UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year.

Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

I would say the USA is returning to its self-imposed cultural, historical, moral recession which it existed in until just a few years ago.
The war against DEI reflects the desire of millions to return to the old lies and omissions of truth which poisoned the USA since its birth.

This is what migration has looked like at the U.S.-Mexico border over the past 3 fiscal years (fiscal 2025 ended September 30).

This combines people apprehended by Border Patrol and people who came to ports of entry, usually with "CBP One" appointments when those existed.

Donald Trump is the AI slop president, so it's comforting to me as an AI hater to know that at least we still have a vice president offering organic, human-generated slop

BREAKING: The full bench of the 9th circuit has agreed to take up the Portland National Guard case and vacated the panel decision that had blessed Trump’s deployment.

🚨 The Senate votes 52-48 to overturn President Trump's 50 percent tariffs on Brazil. 5 GOP Senators break ranks to vote against Trump: Collins ME, McConnell KY, Murkowski AK, Paul KY, and Tillis NC.

The USDA has funding set aside to keep food assistance programs running during emergencies.

Trump just won’t release it.

Amazon to lay off 14,000 employees as it invests in artificial intelligence The company's top human resources executive said Tuesday that the tech giant needs to be "organized more leanly" due to the "transformative" nature of AI.

Amazon will lay off 14,000 workers as it invests in artificial intelligence. The news comes as Amazon donates money to Trump to demolish the East Wing of the White House and build him a $300 million ballroom in the midst of a government shutdown.

Once again, Trump gets richer. Workers get screwed.

Bill Melugin @BillMelugin_ BREAKING: Per four senior DHS & Trump admin sources, a mass removal of ICE leadership around the country is underway, with up to 12 ICE field office chiefs being removed & reassigned in an effort to increase deportation numbers. I'm told the move is spearheaded by Corey Lewandowski, and a handful of the ICE Chiefs will likely be replaced by Border Patrol & CBP officials, some of whom will be hand-picked by aggressive & controversial Border Patrol Commander Greg Bovino. I'm told some of the ICE leadership removed from their positions include the ICE Field Office Directors in: - Los Angeles - Phoenix - Philadelphia - Denver - El Paso - San Diego - Seattle/Portland - New Orleans Border Patrol officials taking over ICE leadership positions would be extremely significant, as Border Patrol and ICE do different things, and I've done numerous ride-alongs/embeds with both.

Generally speaking, ICE typically conducts very targeted operations, largely going after criminal illegal aliens or those with deportation orders, but almost always knowing who they are targeting for arrest, often conducting surveillance to learn their schedules before and waiting hours before arresting them if needed. Border Patrol, under Trump 2.0, while sometimes doing their own targeted operations, has been extremely aggressive and has been at the forefront of some of the most controversial immigration enforcement operations we've seen so far, carrying out roving patrols in Los Angeles, Chicago, etc, often at Home Depot, car washes, flea markets etc, leading to a handful of federal judges around the country issuing injunctions against them. A majority of the viral videos you see online are Border Patrol agents, including the use of a Trojan horse style Penske moving truck at a Los Angeles Home Depot, an operation organized by Bovino. ICE often gets blamed for what Border Patrol does, as the media and activists often cannot tell the difference between federal agents, and everyone is called "ICE". I'm told there are growing concerns about the political and PR fallout associated with some of the roving patrols Border Patrol is conducting as lawsuits continue to stack up and mid-terms approach next year.

I'm told there is significant friction within different wings of DHS and the administration, with Border Czar Tom Homan & ICE Director Todd Lyons preferring to prioritize targeting criminal aliens & the "worst of the worst" or those with deportation orders, while DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, Corey Lewandowski, and BP Commander Bovino prefer to use aggressive tactics to arrest anyone in the US illegally, including but not limited to criminals, to ramp up deportation numbers and achieve President Trump's promises of mass deportations. I am hearing from both sides of this friction. One senior DHS official tells me: "ICE started with the worst of the worst, knowing every target they are hitting, but since Border Patrol started in LA in June, we've (DHS) lost our focus, going too hard, too fast, with limited prioritization. It's getting numbers, but at what cost?". Border Patrol agents I've talked to defend their tactics, with one telling me: "What did everyone think mass deportations meant? Only the worst? Tom Homan has said it himself, anyone in the US illegally is on the table."

It's quite a situation, as both sides of this are on the same team, with the same end goals, but different perspectives on how to get there. Another DHS official confirmed the personnel changes to me on deep background, adding that the moves are based on performance and doing what is needed to achieve the best results. Official statement to @FoxNews via @TriciaOhio : "While we have no personnel changes to announce at this time, the Trump Administration remains laser focused on delivering results and removing violent criminal illegal aliens from this country." 7:57 PM · Oct 27, 2025 · 29.6K Views

🚨BIG changes happening -- ICE leadership is being purged tonight. The old guard, which prioritized targeted enforcement operations aimed at people with criminal records, is being replaced with Border Patrol and Gregory Bovino's "Midway Blitz" style.

Think things are bad now? It'll get worse.

It is an injustice for disabled women to be paid just 56 cents for every dollar paid to nondisabled men.

Three signs: 1) Dilutes the Purpose – off-topic nitpicking; 2) Replaces Curiosity with Caution – fear or futility messaging; 3) Drains Morale – leaves people discouraged. Passing comments add clarity, use curiosity not fear, and leave participants stronger.
