CATO takes a remarkably firm stand on Trump's secret police and their tactics.
If ICE agents believe they have blanket immunity or that citizens have no right to record them, it’s up to the rest of us to disabuse them of that error.

A free society depends on public oversight of government force, and on courts that uphold that freedom. @walterolson.bsky.social
There's a Right To Record ICE Raids--and There's No Blanket Immunity for Raiders

Gestapo agents need no training, beyond a sadistic willingness to do anything to uphold the fascist regime in Washington.
ICE Training Gets Shorter and Weaker
ICE is rushing thousands of officers into the field—with half the training they once had.

In other words, they're coming to gut the trucking industry. The goal appears to be to grind the economy to an absolute stop.

Yes I know it’s the Cato Institute but when they’re right I’m gonna support that. This is the correct take.

China bought 27 million metric tons of soybeans from US farmers in 2024. But somehow this “deal” to buy significantly less is a huge victory.

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

Their initial crimes? Bad checks written years ago and since paid back. A teenage conviction for which he was pardoned 15 years ago. She spent years attempting to get citizenship in an already broken system.

It's so important to dig into each case and witness the inhumanity.

Please repost. 💔
Another case of retaliation is Alma Bowman.

Alma is a disabled 58 year old woman who spent 30 months in an ICE camp during first Trump regime

When released, she worked as a whistleblower to expose abuse within the system

In March of this year, ICE grabbed her again

She’s been detained ever since
Disabled People are Being Mistreated in ICE Detention Facilities
Why is no one talking about it? Where's the media? Where's the public outcry? Another example of the pervasive nature of ableism and how society views disabled people as expendable.

They revised it from 115% to 114%

Dr Oz is a liar

No, @kff.org didn't "retract" the 115% (it's actually 114%).

This screenshot is from the KFF.org home page as of 10 seconds ago...see top right corner.

What they *did* do was *add* a *second* article about the average *gross* premium increases of 26% (which is in line w/my own estimate of 25.1%).

You’re witnessing a kidnapping. And no local police are investigating the crime and arresting the perpetrators. And that’s all it would take to make this stop everywhere.
In Portland, Oregon, masked ICE GOONS abducted and vanished US citizen Gonzalo Catalan last week. Tragically, his family remains unaware of his whereabouts and has not received any communication from him as of today.

The second part of our investigation into the neo-Nazi Rope Culture web server has everything you could ask for: a Nazi arrested for child pornography, a painting by a Nazi leader, a Nazi editor getting mad at a Nazi writer for sloppy writing, and Facebook amplifying a Nazi website.
Yesterday we published the first of 3 articles that investigate the exposed web server for the neo-Nazi magazine Rope Culture. Today we've just published the second part, which analyzes the published articles, reader comments, and web traffic data.
Uncovered: Identities and tactics behind the neo-Nazi “Rope Culture” web server

“mr speaker do you have any concerns about the amount of information your staff is apparently hiding from you” is a pretty obvious question that needs to be asked
Q: What's your reaction to yesterday's purge of senior ICE officials? When is it time for Congress to do some oversight?

MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know any of the details of that yet. I just heard about that, literally I was walking in.

Honestly at some point you have to start doing psyops with these people:

Have Obama announce that he will seek a third term tomorrow. Then watch all the con law “scholars” and Fix News MELT DOWN trying to explain why he can’t but Trump can. (It’s like Newsom taking over his social media persona)
Q: One theory on how you might try to serve a 3rd term is that you could run at the vice president

TRUMP: Yeah, I'd be allowed to do that. But I would rule that out because it's too cute.
Why did this look like someone trying to lead a dog through a competition?
