Don't give anything an Emmy until it's as good as this.

They're building concentration camps with my tax money Chuck. They're torturing children. They're murdering innocent people on the street. What are you doing.

1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken.

Hundreds of kids are still detained.

We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧡

The radical and unrealistic position of "no concentration camps"

The reasonable moderate position of "some concentration camps in certain circumstances"

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) β€” Alberto CastaΓ±eda MondragΓ³n says his memory was so jumbled after a beating by immigration officers that he initially could not remember he had a daughter and still struggles to recall treasured moments like the night he taught her to dance.

But the violence he endured last month in Minnesota while being detained is seared into his battered brain.

He remembers Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents pulling him from a friend’s car on Jan. 8 outside a St. Paul shopping center and throwing him to the ground, handcuffing him, then punching him and striking his head with a steel baton. He remembers being dragged into an SUV and taken to a detention facility, where he said he was beaten again.

He also remembers the emergency room and the intense pain from eight skull fractures and five life-threatening brain hemorrhages.

ICE told nurses this Minneapolis man β€œpurposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall.”

What actually happened is that they pulled him from a car, beat him so viciously with a steel baton that he had 8 skull fractures, 5 life-threatening brain hemorrhages, and couldn’t remember he had a daughter.

It Turns Out Waymos Are Being Controlled by Workers in the Philippines During a Congressional hearing, Waymo's chief safety officer, Mauricio PeΓ±a, was grilled over the company's reliance on overseas workers.

Once again, it turns out β€œfully autonomous” means β€œa guy in the Philippines.”

Gov. Gavin Newsom: β€˜I disagree’ with calls to abolish ICE The 2028 presidential contender came out against calls to dismantle ICE after an agent fatally shot a Minneapolis woman.

What makes Gavin Newsom such a skilled politician is that he stands up to Trump’s bullying with piping hot memes AND is able to agree with Trump about policy

Senate Democrats plot strategy as DHS standoff deepens heading into shutdown week Two sources who were on a Democratic caucus strategy call Sunday said Minority Leader Chuck Schumer told the group the message must be to β€œrestrain, reform and restrict ICE.”

Majority of the country now wants to abolish and/or dismantle ICE and yet Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y. told the caucus the message had to be to β€œrestrain, reform and restrict ICE.”

Once again it looks like Schumer is about to choke after getting a massive opportunity.

So pathetic and weak.

"Just stay cool and don't make trouble until the midterms" is not going to cut it as an opposition response to a murderous regime whose masked thugs are killing people in the streets and then attempting to round up witnesses and destroy evidence.

Aaron Parnas writes: β€œBREAKING: Another ICE involved shooting just happened minutes ago in Minneapolis per someone I spoke to on the ground. Details are limited right now.”

Message to fellow journalists (and anyone claiming to be one): do not β€œpolice-involved shooting” executions in broad daylight.

Obfuscating language like that is completely journalistically unnecessary and, even worse, sanitizes reality.

Words have meaning. Use the right ones.

Elected Dems are complicit. They’re still confirming Trump nominees and acting like strongly worded letters or calls for investigations mean anything.

Senators have real power to obstruct business if they want to use it. Fucking use it. Pull all the levers. It’s only going to get worse from here.
