This wasn’t a rogue unit. It was led by U.S. Border Patrol Commander Greg Bovino himself. ICE’s “raids”are now state-sanctioned assaults on the vulnerable.
This evil attack happened at 26th & Millard on Chicago’s West Side, and America needs to ask: who’s next on their list and how do we stop them?

Olivia Rodrigo warned by feds to be 'grateful' after star calls out ICE Pop sensation Olivia Rodrigo once again made it known where she stands politically as she told the Department of Homeland Security off for using her music on a video

ICE used Olivia Rodrigo's song as a background of a video advocated for self-deportation for undocumented immigrants.

"Don’t ever use my songs to promote your racist, hateful propaganda."

To which the admin threatened her and demanded she thank ICE.

Feds Tell Faith Leaders 'No More Prayer' Outside Broadview Facility In a possible violation of the First Amendment, federal officials instructed demonstrators to stop holding religious gatherings outside the immigration processing facility in suburban Broadview after ...

On Thursday, US District Judge Sara Ellis found federal immigration agents' behavior has impacted religious expression, e.g. praying at the Broadview ICE facility, "under highly coercive threats of violence."

Screenshot of an X post by Nicholas J. Fuentes replying to Ben Shapiro.
Fuentes’s post lists a series of rejections: “No to Ben Shapiro, No to the neocons, No to dual citizens, No to Benjamin Netanyahu, No to cancel culture, No to genocide and ethnic cleansing, No to the Christ-hating Talmud, No to Greater Israel, No to our Jewish oligarchy,” followed by “AMERICA FIRST. AMERICA FOREVER 🇺🇸.”
Below, it shows Ben Shapiro’s earlier post saying, “No to the groypers. No to cowards like Tucker Carlson, who normalize their trash. No to those who champion them. No to demoralization…,” along with an image of Shapiro speaking into a microphone on his show “The Ben Shapiro Show.”

Ben Shapiro was just ratioed by Nick Fuentes on X after Shapiro called out Tucker Carlson and Fuentes for their antisemitism.

The neo nazi right is fully taking over the republican party.

Interesting flex to pray for God to deliver us from you, the pray-er.

But seriously, this is *actually* blasphemy.

Christian Pastor here 🙋🏻‍♀️ to remind us all that this is suuuuuper fucked up and in every possible way not just *un*christian but wholly and entirely Anti-Christ.

I don’t use words like heresy and blasphemy but once or twice a year but here we are. This is how it sounds/looks to blaspheme God.

Because it’s cis kids.
The NHS will quite casually give cis kids whatever treatment they need, even PBs👇
No trials. No concerns about side effects. No moral panic.

It was and never will be about protecting children or saving lives or any of that nonsense. It is all and always about taking and adding to their collections.

The Christian right has long supported Israel not because they support American Jews or Israelis but because they believe total Jewish control of the region is a precondition for the Second Coming of Christ who would then rule the world from there.

A D.C. task force shot at a driver. It’s not in the police report. Neither D.C. police nor the Department of Homeland Security have explained why the Homeland Security agent fired his weapon.

WILD story. A DHS officer shot at a man he thought was fleeing (a judge dismissed all charges). Bullets went into the driver's side window, through his jacket collar, and into the empty passenger seat. An MPD cop on the scene says he was ordered not to put it in the police report.

A mother of 8 was deported within 24 hours of reporting sexual harassment by an ICE contracto

She was following the rules & going through the process to get her green card

Someone working on behalf of ICE abused her.

She spoke out and was kicked out of the country.

It’s retaliation & it’s wrong

Video Captures What Led to Tasha Grant’s Restraint Death Tasha Grant told a deputy and hospital staff 23 times that she could not breathe. Instead of an evaluation, she got handcuffs and skepticism.

"Tasha Grant said the words until she could speak them no more."

"'I can't breathe,' she repeated 23 times."

Body camera footage "depicting when Grant was found unresponsive is missing at least the first 30 seconds."

DHS Tries To Unmask Ice Spotting Instagram Account by Claiming It Imports Merchandise There is no evidence the Instagram and Facebook account, called Montcowatch, sells anything. Lawyers from the ACLU say the move is "wildly outside the scope" of DHS' authority.

The specifics of this are extremely bad. DHS is using a tariffs/product importation law to demand Meta unmask the identity of an Instagram account that posts about ICE enforcement actions. The page sells no merch. Lawyers call it "wildly outside the scope" of the law

We're at the point in the story where the FBI is showing up at a dude's house because he attended a protest. Without suspicion of a crime, agents ask important questions like who produced signs for the event.

And it had an impact--he decided not to go back to the streets to voice his opinions.

Don’t buy or support the @startribune.bsky.social. Feels like ignoring these massive protests across MN is a definite choice - likely guided by its owner Glen Taylor, a Republican and richest person in the state. But if it’s just a “mistake” that’s equally pathetic. Either way, they’re worthless.
