My 7yo daughter’s best friends’ family fled the country a few weeks ago. Today she came home with a drawing of her and another friend blowing whistles at ICE agents.

“We’re blowing the whistles and so ICE will go away and our friends can come back,” she said.

I started sobbing uncontrollably.

In the chaotic moments leading up to the killing of Alex Pretti on Saturday, the aggressive actions of two federal agents transformed the encounter into a deadly shooting, a CNN analysis of video has found.

This make you uncomfortable? Good! Because this isn’t history, it’s reality and what ICE has normalized.

If Democrats win house in 2026 - we need a new leader of house who cares about the voters rather than the donors - it is time to look past Jeffries and hope we replace Schumer with Chris Murphy in Senate!

I don’t want to think about Trump’s latest post about Alex Pretti, but we all must, esp. as funding discussions continue.

The president is talking about the “stock” of a man subjected to an extrajudicial killing by federal agents who threw him to the ground and shot him repeatedly in the back.

Early warnings. Safety in numbers. Cameras everywhere.

Anti-ICE protests in the U.S. mirror the nonviolent survival strategies civilians use in war zones around the world.
Anti-ICE protesters are following same nonviolent playbook used by people in war zones across the world to fight threats to their communities
Americans are learning and doing the kind of work that civilians in war zones worldwide have done for decades: dealing with threats by organizing to help protect their neighbors and communities.

I guess being an Epstein pal is just fine at both Harvard and Yale.
Yale is launching a new Presidential Senior Fellowship to expand access to the transformative work of universities. As part of this program, author and columnist David Brooks will join the Jackson School of Global Affairs starting February 1.

ICE has been holding a disabled Black man for a year!

Rodney Taylor is a double amputee who was days away from receiving new prosthetic legs when ICE took him.

He’s been denied his prosthetics & placed in solitary.

His health is declining.

Public outrage might save his life.

Say his name:

Demand the Release of Rodney Taylor from ICE Detention

I think ICE also wants to know if any of them saw them remove his carry permit? Just saying, the lady in pink said, ICE cut off Alex's clothes, and it looked like they were counting the bullet holes. Maybe they were looking for his wallet, too.

More brief convenient #KavanaughStop

Disgusting that #SCOTUS & #Congress allow this in the US

Brett, are you proud?

The mediocre SC justices got their JDs from Trump University.

No logical reasoning backed by solid legal references, precedence & the Constitution. Just Brett's opinion. 👍

The majority of Americans are now aware that the purpose of increased ICE/CBP funding isn't to catch drug cartel members or whatever but to terrorize, kidnap, hurt, and kill ordinary people. The majority supports outright abolishing ICE; slashing ICE's & CBP's budgets should be an essential demand.
The New Democrats & the Progressive Caucus just put out a joint statement with a list of demands for immigration enforcement reforms... 2 things on this:
1-the New Dems are to the left of Schumer on this
2-nothing about clawing back the $175 billion in OBBBA funding for ICE

Here's some guy, sharing another person's video, lying about when it was taken and what it shows, and not deleting the post despite being corrected in the replies.

I think you should block people like this automatically. They are not on "your side" if they try to mislead you for clout.

Here are two agents who appear to be the same ones from the day Pretti was killed, in a clear video from MPR news, where you can hear them talk, on Jan 21. This shows NS-909 and NS-919 who may be one of the agents who shot Pretti.

ICE kidnapped a permanent resident in Minnesota today. They let the individual go after realizing they had authorization. Don’t be fooled, ICE is still discriminating against our neighbors based on the color of their skin. 1/
