“I spent three nights and three days in federal custody. During that time, I was never told what I was charged with, was not allowed to shower despite being covered in tear gas and pepper spray, had no phone call to my family, and no access to an attorney.” - George Retes, U.S. citizen and veteran.

I’m a US citizen and a veteran. ICE arrested me for no reason.

Jailed for three days without an explanation or ability to notify anyone, George Retes argues the only path to healing starts with the government taking accountability for its actions.

Sounds like he’s deep into dementia why is his cabinet and the Republicans in Congress not calling for him to be removed from office????

Joe Walsh @walshfreedom.bsky.social · 2d

And who was President on January 6th? His idiocy is always dwarfed by his dishonesty.

Good people need to start outing their ICE family members, neighbors, and community members.

They need to be made into pariahs in the places decent Americans gather.

Really? Qatar gets its own air force facility inside the United States? Why?

When Trump is fighting the "enemy within" America and kicking out anyone who can't prove they belong here?

It’s been 19 days since @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social won her election, and she still hasn’t been sworn in.

Do your job, Speaker Johnson.

Questions: are all these ice agents or most of them proud boys and oath keepers? Did the government do background checks to give these individuals this authority? Where can we find out some information on their backgrounds?
