Ghislaine Maxwell, a convicted child sex trafficker, gets gardening time, sports, therapy dogs, and spa products in prison.

Migrant children in custody are sleeping on concrete floors without enough food or clean water.

Our priorities are so fucked.

A Reuters photographer captured this image of a page from Pam Bondi's "burn book," which she used to counter any questions from Democratic lawmakers during an unhinged hearing today.

It looks like the DOJ monitored members of Congress’s searches of the unredacted Epstein files.

Just wow.

Also, FYI this sort of "sorting" happens all the time (and during so-called Democratic administrations) during border entry points to naturalized US citizens. I've witnessed it happen to my husband. We've been at these tactics for a while.

I have heard a similar account happening inside a federal building, away from the public eye, and people separated from spouses/families and the same racial/ethnic "sorting" and forceful intimidation.

US Olympic Curling Team member speaks out against ICE:

"I'm proud to represent Team USA. But we'd be remiss if we didn't mention what's going on in Minnesota and what a tough time it's been. What's happening is wrong. There's no shades of gray."

if you remember the FBI + ICE + local raid on a horse race track in Wilder, Idaho that detained hundreds of families (including many kids & U.S. citizens) the @acluidaho.bsky.social just announced a lawsuit.

The complaint is just as disturbing as previous reporting www.aclu.org/press-releas...

Super Bowl viewers Sunday speculated that 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos appeared in the halftime show. In fact, he has been in hiding with his family.

β€œHe can’t sleep well at night. He wakes up three or four times a night screaming, β€˜Daddy, Daddy,’” Liam's father Adrian Conejo Arias, said.

I hear from people who are surprised I'm still talking about ICE, they thought they'd withdrawn from MN.

No, they have not. In some respects they've escalated.

Some asked why MN is a target. Are there are there a lot more illegals or criminals here?

No, it's not about that. It's about a grudge.

Southcom killed 2 more in the Eastern Pacific today, making at least 131 civilians killed by the US with no due process in 35 attacks over 5 months.

Only a sick nation would do this. 23 attacks in the Eastern Pacific, 10 in the Caribbean, 2 unspecified. See adamisacson.com/boat-strikes/

U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.

It was transforming the biggest NFL stage in the world into a sugar cane plantation that did it for me.

Like, the multiple layers of turning an American icon into a plantation and highlighting the history of exploitation of Black and Brown bodies by the NFL and American colonialism simultaneously?

Toddler hospitalized with respiratory failure was returned to ICE detention and denied prescribed medication, lawsuit says The 18-month-old was sent back to a South Texas facility after days in intensive care with severe respiratory distress, according to a federal lawsuit.

Read every word of this. And then send it to your elected officials and ask them to justify why one more penny on this has any moral justification. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...
