Good. But this was never a close call, legally. The waste of taxpayer dollars arguing the case, the economic loss imposed by the action and the confusion that remains on how to make folks whole / counter future non-IEEPA paths from these morons remains. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

For the Supreme Court to actually rule against Trump you know this was completely illegal.

Biden would’ve been instantly impeached in a bipartisan vote if he put his face on the freakin’ Department of Justice building

The Governor gets top billing as the special guest, but I will actually be conducting the training for anyone interested in learning more about voter protection and pollwatching.

If this country was truly β€œpro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage.

The right-wing agenda isn’t about β€œlife.”

It’s about control.

ICE to begin detaining immigrants inside Social Circle warehouse in April Homeland Security plans to build warehouse detention facilities in other cities being met with opposition.

ICE has now spent over half a BILLION dollars just on purchasing warehouses around the country to convert into detention camps.

If these mega-camps are utilized to the full capacity ICE intends, they'll be the largest prisons in the country, with little real oversight. www.ajc.com/politics/202...

Not at all happy with the cliffhanger now that I’ve watched, but this week was getting a little more interesting.

While I don’t agree with every endorsement, I think this is an excellent resource among others on which to decide who to vote for.

happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

I sometimes wish the Democratic Party in Congress consisted of any 260 people in the Minneapolis telephone directory rather than the 260 dignitaries now representing us.

I know all eyes are on Minneapolis, but there's a fast-approaching nightmare in Springfield, Ohio.

Trump is revoking protected status for tens of thousands of Haitians living there on Feb. 3.

Reportedly, on Feb. 4, 1000 ICE agents are arriving to remove this population. Ethnic cleansing.

When the president was calling all Somali immigrants "garbage" who "come from hell" and "contribute nothing" to America and therefore needed to go "back where they came from" did you ask him to "stop the rhetoric," Tom?

The most inflammatory rhetoric by far in all of this on TV and social media has come from Tom Homan, Greg Bovino, Kristi Noem, Stephen Miller and Donald Trump. bsky.app/profile/atru...

"You raise your voice, I erase your voice."

ICE in Minneapolis are erasing your rights.

Bauer, who is 49, struggled to maintain her composure as she described the day early this month when ICE showed up in force outside her school. Agents had been circling the school since December, seemingly learning its routines, and they arrested some parents just before the winter break. But this time, agents leapt out in riot gear and began entering the apartments just across from the school, where many students live.

β€œWe had to lock down and keep the kids inside, and parents linked arms to block the school entrance,” Bauer said. β€œWe had a student who was looking out the window and saw them break into his apartment and just sobbed, β€˜That’s my house. That’s my home.’ And we shut the blinds, but it was too late.”

The terror that ICE and CBP have inflicted on the children of the Twin Cities is, by itself, a crime of scandalous proportions that will forever stain this country's moral fabric, and all those responsible should never know another day of peace. www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

The officer who shot Alex worked for DHS for 8 years. The officer who shot Renee worked for DHS for over 10 years. Both are considered β€œhighly trained.”

The problem isn’t "training." DHS was built to violate our rights and has been empowered to act with impunity. We must MELT ICE and dismantle DHS.

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum.

Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum.

Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum.

ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.
